enhance and restore strength and function of her right wrist. She will benefit from a thumb spica splint to allow her tendinitis to resolve. She will continue applying her Voltaren gel. Requested verification from the provider’s office on the number of visits attended to date; however, no callback/report was received prior to the submission of this request to PA.

Role of short course of pulsed steroids in congenital hip dislocation Intro : congenital hip dislocation or developmental hip hyperplasia is a condition that affects hip joint in babies and young children . It is the most common anomaly that occurs in hip joint in this age . It can be Caused by breech delivery and genetic causes . It is More common in females . In this disorder , the hip joint doesn't develop normally. Aim : To define effectiveness of using short course of pulsed steroids in

Radiographic (X-ray) examination is the most useful diagnostic tool for assessing skeletal trauma. However, during normal growth and development, much of the skeleton of infants and young children is composed of radiolucent growth cartilage that may not appear on the x-ray. So sometimes x-rays can be less reliable than gross deformity and point tenderness in predicting extremity fractures. In this case, health care providers can obtain a film of the uninjured limb for direct comparison to help identify

EVOLUTION OF TREATMENT With advent of advanced medical care, the life span of humans has considerably increased. This in turn has increased the populations of the aged people. With the increased life span and need to be independent patients are now demanding for a better functional outcome following a fracture fixation. Management of proximal humerus fractures in the elderly has always posed a challenge to the orthopaedicians in their daily practice. The earliest documentation regarding proximal

athletes and performers. Over years there have been several methods orthopedists have used to fix femoral neck fractures. In 1931, Smith Petersen used internal fixation by reducing pain and pressure to the fractured parts followed by immobilization in a spica cast application. Until 1970 another widely spread method called the multiple-pin fixation technique was introduced by another orthopedist. In this method the fracture fragments would heal with the insertion of Pugh nails and Richards screws. Both
