Accident
can happen with anyone and can lead to a number of problems ranging from mild
to chronic.one of the most common orthopaedic problems caused by severe
accidents is fracture which may either be simple and isolated or complex and
multiple. Some of the fractures are so complicated that it is impossible to
treat them easily and we require specialised and well trained doctors to do so.
In some cases the bone may be completely damaged and requires the introduction
of a special metallic rod inside the patient's body to provide support to the
damaged bone. Not all orthopaedic doctors are qualified to perform such
complicated surgeries. This is where orthopaedic trauma centers ome in handy.
The centers have a well trained staff who can easily treat orthopaedic problems
of any degree.
The
patient is rushed to the orthopedic trauma care where all the necessary x-rays
are conducted and the treatment procedure is started. This is done in a number
of steps starting from initial life saving measures. The process starts with
the emergency department to which the patient is directly rushed. The doctors
and nurses diagnose all the problems and clean up all the open wounds. The
various tests conducted involve CT scans, x-rays, MRI and blood tests. One the
tests have been evaluated the doctors device out a specific medical protocol
and the treatment is initiated. The primary goal of this is to ensure that the person
does not have any serious limb injury. In some cases less sever injuries that
do not pose a serious threat to the patient may be ignored. Only serious
problems are started in this step. The doctors decide wether you need a surgery
or not and in case there is a need of a surgery, the patient is handed over to
a team of the best Orthopaedic surgeons assisted by well trained and efficient
nurses and doctors. Before the surgery, the patient and his family are informed
about the adversity of the problem and the various pros and con (if any) of the
surgery. The patient is free to share all his doubts with the medical team and
they make sure to end all of these doubts. The surgeries are quiet complicated
and may take upto several hours. The surgery may also be performed in intervals
as it helps to prevent excessive loss of blood at a time.
Once
the operation has been conducted successfully the patient is shifted to the
intense care unit or ICU where he is kept under observation. Once the patient
has gained consciousness the treatment procedure is continued and physiotherapy
is started. The physiotherapy helps to speed up the healing process and increase the success rate of the surgical
procedure. All the necessary arrangements are made to ensure the the patient is
at ease. The patient requires complete bed rest and hence may experience
problem in urinating. To avoid such problems a catheter and urine drainage bag.
The
patient might feel some pain initially for which he is given certain painkillers. Apart for these antibiotics may
also be prescribed to nullify any chances of infections in the wound. The diet
of the patient is carefully monitored and ecrays may also be taken a number of
times after the surgery to ensure that the bones are healing properly and that
there is no complication.
Various
services provided by the leading orthopaedic trauma care centers include
minimally invasive surgical methods for treating fractures, various kinds of
treatments for non unions and malunions, pelvis and acetabulum surgery which
are extremely complicated, treatment for infections like poliomyelitis, bone
replacement, joint replacement, rod and stent placement, bone grafting, bone
augmentation, complex soft tissue
reconstruction etc.
After
the procedures the patient needs to follow all the instructions given by the
doctor and may be dependent on a nurse or caretaker for some time unless the
wounds heal completely. The patient and the family members have to remain
patient as the recovery period might be long. However it guarantees 100 percent
results.
