The Origin of the Word: Orthopedics / Orthopaedics
• Nicholas Andry coined the word "orthopaedics", derived from Greek words for "correct" or "straight" ("orthos") and "child" ("paidion")
• In 1741, when at the age of 81 he published Orthopaedia: or the Art of Correcting and Preventing Deformities in Children.

• In ancient Eqypt, splints have been found on mummies made of bamboo, reeds, wood or bark, padded with linen
• Ancient Greece,- Hippocrates details the treatment for dislocations of the shoulders, knees, and hips, as well as treatments for infections resulting from compound fractures.
• Rome, Galen (129-199 BC), a Greek, became a gladiatorial surgeon. His learning helped provide the best care possible for the Roman army.
• Often referred to as the father of modern medicine• He studied the skeleton and the muscles that moved it• During this Greco-Roman period, attempts to provide
artificial prostheses were noted, with accounts of wooden legs, iron hands and artificial feet.

Jean-Andre Venel established the first orthopedic institute in 1780, which was the first hospital dedicated to the treatment of children's skeletal deformities
He is considered by some to be the father of orthopedics in consideration of the establishment of his hospital and for his published methods.
Antonius Mathysen, a Dutch military surgeon, invented the plaster of Paris cast in 1851.Many developments in orthopedic surgery resulted from experiences during wartime
• Middle Ages: the injured were treated with bandages soaked in horses' blood which dried to form a stiff splint.
• Traction and splinting developed during World War I
![Page 5: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Since WWII, treatments have evolved to include joint replacements, arthroscopy, and a whole host of technologies.
• Improvements in biomaterials-titanium,polyethylene, ceramics- have produced better and more robust implants and prostheses over the years
• However, the basic principles on which these advances are based have remained the same
![Page 6: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
THE COST OF MUSCULOSKELETAL TRAUMA
• TRAUMA- the “neglected disease”• Leading cause of death for ages 1-44, of all races and
socioeconomic levels• Those affected must deal with :
-physical and psychological effects of pain, limitation of activities, loss of independence-direct cost of diagnosis and treatment-indirect cost of decreased productivity
![Page 7: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
THE R.P. SETTING
• “HILOTS” / BONE SETTERS-still play an important role in the community-Often may see and manage before doctors / health personnel
• 911 system not as well developed• Cost of implants / prostheses
![Page 8: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Importance of recongnition of these conditions as a physician
• Conditions necessitating emergent/urgent intervention
• High Index of Suspicion

PAIN and SWELLING
• Results from the trauma of the initial injury and resulting inflammation of tissues
• Pain from a fracture- much more• Bleeding from bone- greater swelling• Therefore, the need to rest / immobilize the
area• COMPARTMENT SYNDROME-increasing pain
not responsive to pain medications
![Page 24: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

DEFORMITY
• Loss of the normal appearance of the extremity or joint from fractures or dislocations
• Correction of the deformity ASAP can help minimize soft tissue damage, pain
• Must check pulses, sensation, motion of the affected area before and after any intervention
![Page 29: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

LIMITATION OF MOTION
• Due to pain!• Due to a dislocated / subluxed joint• Due to a ruptured tendon, torn muscle or
ligament• Unable to put weight on the lower extremity /
use the arm
![Page 33: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Open Fractures
• Fractures communicating through a traumatic wound to the surrounding environment
• Contamination and soft tissue envelope disruption are special considerations
![Page 35: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Compartment Syndrome• Mubarak defined
compartment syndrome as an elevation of the interstitial pressure in a closed osseofascial compartment that results in microvascular compromise.
• Usually anterior and deep posterior compartments of the leg
• Volar compartment of the forearm

COMPARTMENT SYNDROME
![Page 40: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Causes
• Acute– Soft tissue trauma– Arterial injury– Limb compression during
altered consciousness– burns
• Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome– recurrence of increased
pressure– Long distance runners
and military recruits
![Page 41: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Recognition
• tightness of the involved compartment• pain with passive motion of those muscles
passing through the compartment• weakness of the muscles• Hypesthesia or paresthesia (evaluated with
pinprick, light touch and two point)• The most important sign is pain out of
proportion to that expected with the injury.
![Page 42: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
SPLINTING• SPLINT-Any device used to immobilize a body
part• Can be commercially manufactured or
IMPROVISED
![Page 43: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
REASONS FOR SPLINTING
• Prevents movement and reduces chance of further injury
• Reduces pain and discomfort• Facilitates transport
![Page 44: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
GENERAL RULES OF SPLINTING
• Assess pulse, motor function, and sensation before AND after splinting
• Immobilize the joints above and below the injured bone
• Immobilize the bones above and below the injured joint
• Remove clothing, jewelry around area of injury
![Page 45: Overview of the Orthopedics module Albert Quintos M.D., FPOA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eb25503460f94bb90f7/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Splint in the functional position
