In this case takeaway Tim White consultant orthopaedic surgeon at the Royal Infirmary Hospital in Edinburgh draws similarities with the local landscape (Arthurs seat) and tibial plateau fractures. Tim talks us through the Edinburgh technique for percutaneous fixation by creating a window and using the cortex and a punch to elevate the plateau, followed by percutaneous fixation and injection of bone substitute. Tim also talks us through the results the Edinburgh team have had with this method of fixation and their recent publication on the topic.

episode 12: do or do not, there is no try - Yelena Bogdan, MD - see one do one podcast

We celebrate achieving 10k downloads (!!) with a fantastic episode with our first ever trans-Atlantic guest, Dr Yelena Bogdan, a US Orthopaedic Trauma Surgeon working in New York. 

We talk about Yelena’s story, Star Wars vs Star Trek (for which Pete did the most research he has done yet for any podcast), and the frank commercialism of baby Yoda. 

We discuss growing up in Russia and East Germany (Yelena, not us), before moving to the US and pursuing the American dream. 

Yelena tells us about Stony Brook medical school followed by navigating the challenges of the US matching scheme, Residency training in Boston and then Fellowship at HSS. We consider luck vs opportunity before Pete makes it really weird and brings in time travel (blame Apple News). 

Yelena then tells us about her life as an attending and how her career has evolved and flourished. We talk about her use of twitter as a social and educational tool, her role as a social media ambassador with the AAOS and OTA, and how she maximises her reach and effectiveness. 

We also review how to stay on the right side of patient confidentiality laws and when social media goes wrong (plus we pity the fool who questions Chip Routt). 

We consider Yelena’s mentors and the impact they have had on her career and practice, before Pete tells us about his similarities with Matthew McConaughey... 

We highlight to Yelena why we think she is such an excellent educator, and the relationship between pre-operative planning, training, and success. 

Yelena then tells us about the way she practices evidence-based practice: the journals she reads, her indexing system, and how this has grown into her role curating the evidence resource list for the Orthopaedic Trauma Association. 

 We finish up talking about the future of trauma care in the USA and compare it with that here in the UK, before rounding up with some excellent take-home points... 

...and much much more!

webinar 011 - spine for everyone - low back pain, cauda equina and spine trauma

This is the spine teaching that I always wish I’d had!  Spine for non-spine specialists. 

 We’ve all had a spot of back pain once or twice in the past, and no mistake.  Whether it’s putting down a patio, frolics in the bedroom or just sleeping awkwardly, a bad back is a common thing indeed. 

But we also know what happens if you try to admit a patient to hospital with terrible back pain – you get roasted by the boss in the morning meeting!  Yet now and then, just occasionally, that back pain turns into cauda equina (CES) and suddenly you’ve got an emergency on your hands.   CES is a huge source of litigation vs medics and the NHS and missing a case is a deep-seated fear for all of us. 

 So who needs admitting?  What is a ‘red flag’ and are some more red than others?  Does everyone get an MRI?  Who needs an injection and who needs to toughen up?  Can we really just refer people for yoga lessons?  What about sciatica, sit tight or intervene?  Who goes to the pain service? Plus we’re covering basic trauma spine too – what gets fixed and what gets a brace.  Who gets an MRI and who needs logrolling?  Do we have to refer all fractures, even the low-energy ones? 

 All these Qs, and tons of others, confronted and answered by our totally awesome faculty.

David Cumming – Back pain - BASS President Elect

Lennel Lutchman – Trauma
