Hip Fractures

A hip fracture is a break in the upper portion of the femur (thighbone). Most hip fractures occur in elderly patients whose bones have become weakened by osteoporosis.

When a hip fracture occurs in a younger patient, it is typically the result of a high-energy event, such as a fall from a ladder or vehicle collision.

Each year, more than 300,000 people in the U.S. sustain a hip fracture. Most of these fractures occur in patients 65 years of age or older who are injured in household or community falls.

Hip fractures can be very painful. For this reason, prompt surgical treatment is recommended. Treating the fracture and getting the patient out of bed as soon as possible will help prevent medical complications such as bed sores, blood clots, and pneumonia. In very old patients, prolonged bed rest can also lead to disorientation, which makes rehabilitation and recovery much more difficult.

Most hip fractures sustained by older people result from falls.

ACL Injury and Management

The anterior cruciate ligament is a band of thick fibrous tissue within the knee that connects the thighbone to your shinbone and helps in stabilising the knee. This ligament can get stretched or torn while playing sports like rugby, netball, skiing, basketball, gymnastics, and football. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a knee surgery, which involves replacing the torn ACL with a tendon from another part of the body or from a donor. The surgery is performed through small incisions around the knee joint (arthroscopic surgery), usually on an outpatient basis

Geriatric Physical Therapy covers a wide area of problems concerning the elderly. There are many conditions that affect people as they grow older and include but are not limited to the following: arthritis, osteoporosis, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, hip and joint replacement, balance disorders incontinence, etc.

Geriatric physical therapists specialize in providing therapy for such conditions and ailments. Physiotherapists play a key role in enabling older people to use a number of the body’s systems fully to enhance mobility and independence. Physiotherapists can make a difference by helping older people to be comfortable and pain-free. The types of problems faced in geriatric physiotherapy are grouped into three different categories.

One category is the problems that happen because the patient simply does not use their limbs or does not exercise. These problems can be addressed by reconditioning through range-of-motion exercises and other exercises.

Another category geriatric physiotherapy deals with is cardiovascular disease, like heart disease and stroke. The physiotherapy professional has an array of tools at her disposal to work with these conditions. Exercise, aqua therapy, electrical stimulation, and more can be used.

The third category is skeletal problems. Geriatric physiotherapy helps people who have these disorders, such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. These problems require special attention as osteoporosis makes patients frailer, and osteoarthritis is very painful.

Spinal fusion is a surgical procedure that involves joining two or more vertebrae in the spine to create a solid bone.

The procedure is often performed to alleviate pain and other symptoms caused by conditions such as degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, or spinal fractures.

During spinal fusion surgery, the surgeon removes the damaged or diseased spinal disc or vertebra and inserts a bone graft or a bone graft substitute into the space between the vertebrae.

The bone graft stimulates new bone growth, which eventually fuses the vertebrae together into a single bone.

The bone graft can be taken from the patient's own hip bone, from a cadaver, or from a synthetic material.

In some cases, metal rods, screws, or plates may be used to hold the vertebrae in place until the bone graft fuses them together.

Spinal fusion surgery can be performed through a variety of approaches, including anterior (from the front), posterior (from the back), or lateral (from the side).

The choice of approach depends on the location of the affected vertebrae and the surgeon's preference.

Spinal fusion is a major surgery that carries some risks, including infection, bleeding, nerve damage, and failure to fuse.

Recovery from spinal fusion surgery can take several months, and patients may need to wear a back brace, restrict their activities, and participate in physical therapy to help the fusion process and regain strength and mobility.
