Episode Synopsis

The full abstract can be found at the OAR website: Negative Stress Examination Under Anesthesia Predicts Pelvic Ring Union without Displacement This research study, presented at the 2017 AAOS Annual Meeting, investigates the predictive power of a negative Examination Under Anesthesia (EUA) for pelvic ring injuries. The authors, from various orthopaedic institutions, aimed to determine if a negative EUA accurately forecasts a pelvic ring union without displacement. Their methods involved reviewing data from patients at multiple trauma centers who underwent pelvic EUA. The results indicate that a negative EUA reliably predicts successful healing without further displacement, even allowing for immediate weight-bearing unless other injuries prevent it.
