When it comes to scoliosis, early treatment is crucial regardless of age at diagnosis. Scoliosis tends to progress during rapid growth phases, whether in adolescence, mid-life, or later stages. By treating scoliosis early, we can often prevent the need for surgical intervention. The traditional orthopedic approach typically involves waiting until surgery is necessary, but we believe in managing and reducing curves early on. There is no cure for scoliosis; it’s a matter of lifelong management, whether through conservative treatment or surgical means. #ScoliosisAwareness #SpineHealth #EarlyIntervention #OrthopedicCare #ScoliosisManagement #MedicalAdvice #HealthCare #Wellness #ChiropracticCare #HealthManagement

Simmonds-Thompson test, also known as Thompson test, is used in lower limb examination to test for the rupture of the Achilles tendon. The test is named after Franklin Adin Simmonds, an English orthopaedic surgeon at the Rowley Bristow Hospital, Surrey, and Theodore Campbell Thompson, an American orthopedic Surgeon. During this test the patient lies face down with feet hanging off the edge of the bed. If the test is positive, there is no movement of the foot (normally plantarflexion) on squeezing the corresponding calf, signifying likely rupture of the Achilles tendon. However, recent research has indicated that while the test is an accurate detector of achilles rupture, it is unable to distinguish between partial tear (tear of the gastrocnemius or soleal portion only) and a complete tear of both portions. *Rajat Mitta, Acute Achilles tendon rupture: diagnosis and management.

We recently came across an insightful BONEZONE Magazine | OMTEC Expo article, where Dr. Sharat Kusuma, MD, FAAOS, President of JointMedica, highlighted the growing importance of technologies that enhance precision without adding significant costs. Dr. Kusuma notes that time is a critical factor in these facilities: "Time is money in an ASC. The more cases a surgeon completes, the better the facility performs." With this in mind, enabling technologies like Naviswiss are becoming essential. As the landscape of orthopedic surgery continues to evolve, it’s clear that balancing precision, efficiency, and cost will remain key priorities for surgeons and facilities alike. The right tools can make all the difference in improving outcomes and enhancing the overall surgical experience.
