,
,external fixation -An external fixator is a metallic device composed of metal pins that are inserted
into the bone and attached to external rods to stabilize the fracture while it heals.
-The external fixator is attached directly to the bones by percutaneous transfixing pins or wires.
-It can be used to apply traction or to compress fracture fragments and immobilize reduced fragments
when the use of a cast or other traction is not appropriate.
-The external device holds fracture fragments in place similar to a surgically implanted internal device.
-External fixation is often used in an attempt to salvage extremities that otherwise might require
amputation.
-Because the use of an external device is a long-term process, ongoing assessment for pin loosening and
infection is critical.
-Infection (indicated by exudate, erythema, tenderness, and pain) may require removal of the device.
-Pus oozing out of the hole, redness, swelling, elevated temperature, and elevated WBC indicates
infection
-Instruct the patient and caregiver about meticulous pin care.
-Although each physician has a protocol for pin care cleaning, chlorhexidine 2mg/ml is often used.
-Water and peroxide is used for pin site care
internal fixation -Internal fixation devices (pins, plates, intramedullary rods, and metal and
bioabsorbable screws) are surgically inserted to realign and maintain position of bony fragments.
-These metal devices are biologically inert and made from stainless steel, vitallium, or titanium.
-Proper alignment and bone healing are evaluated regularly by x-rays.
facial fractures -Traumatic injury:
falls, MVA, sports (eye-globe rupture, orbital fracture (blow-out)
-Airway maintenance, suctioning, positioning
-Tracheostomy to by-pass obstruction
-Facial and cervical injuries often occur together
-Treat as cervical spine injury present until proven negative
-Neuro assessment:
GCS, LOC, EOMs, pupillary response, grips and pushes
Types of Facial Fractures:
-Frontal bone: rapid edema that may mask underlying fractures
, -Periorbital bone: possible frontal sinus involvement, entrapment of ocular muscles
-Nasal bone: displacement of nasal bones, nosebleed (epistaxis)
-Zygomatic arch: depression of cheek bone (zygomatic arch) and entrapment of ocular muscles
-Maxilla: segmental motion (instability) of maxilla and tooth fracture at socket
-Mandible: tooth fractures, bleeding, limited motion of mandible
Immobilization:
-Maxillary: more stable usually
-Mandibular: unstable
•Splinted to maxilla to stabilize
•Intermaxillary fixation
Postoperative Care:
-Airway and nausea/vomiting management are priorities
-Elevate HOB, turn to side to maintain airway
-Oral hygiene
-Communication
-Pain management
-Nutrition
-Safety concerns at bedside
•Scissors, wire cutters: remove if concerns with breathing or airway, provide home teaching
•Emergency tracheostomy kit
•Suction set up with Jonker tip
•NG tube if persisting vomitus
•Antiemetics
•Method of communicating
amputation -Removal of an extremity by trauma or surgery
-Goal of surgery:
