Examination of the body

Assessment of the severity of injury

The trauma evaluation scale assesses the key physiological parameters, a change in which, after trauma, allows patients at risk to be identified. The scale includes five main vital indicators: respiration rate, respiration pattern, systolic blood pressure, capillary filling time, Glasgow coma scale (GCS).

Scale of Glasgow and evaluation of neurological status

The Glasgow scale (SCG) was proposed in 1974 as a practical method for assessing coma. The disturbed consciousness is classified based on the violation of 3 responses: pupillary, motor and speech.

Capillaroscopy

Capillaroscopy is a method of visual examination of capillaries in vivo. The full name of the method is wide-field capillaroscopy of the nail bed. The study is carried out with a small increase in the microscope (x12-40), the object of observation is the distal row of capillaries of the nail bed (eponymichia).

Arthroscopy of the ankle

According to domestic and foreign literature, ankle joint damage accounts for 6 to 21% of musculoskeletal injuries.

Arthroscopy of the hip joint

Arthroscopy of the hip joint is performed under endotracheal anesthesia. The position of the patient on the operating table is lying on a healthy side.

Surgical arthroscopy

One of the important conditions for a successful outcome of surgical treatment of joint pathology is minimal traumatic surgery. This forced many orthopedic traumatologists to look for ways to reduce traumatism due to reduced arthrotomic access.

Arthroscopy of the wrist joint

A wrist joint is a complex of joints connecting the wrist with the forearm. The carpal joint includes the wrist, distal radial-fiber, carpal, intervascular, carpal-metacarpal and intercostal joints.

Arthroscopy of the elbow joint

Recently, arthroscopy of the elbow joint has become widespread and introduced into clinical practice. In addition to purely diagnostic purposes (revision of intraarticular structures, biopsy of synovial membrane and articular cartilage), various surgical procedures are performed: removal of intraarticular bodies, sanation of chondromalization foci, arthrolysis, etc.

Shoulder arthroscopy

The shoulder complex is the most mobile of the joints of the human body. It consists of five joints: two physiological (or false) and three anatomical.

Arthrocenthesis

Arthrocentesis is the procedure of needle puncture. With properly performed arthrocentesis and the presence of effusion in the joint, it is possible to obtain the latter for examination.
