"Osteoporosis in Spine and Spine Arthritis"

Image
Osteoporosis  is nothing, but the spine fractures it will make your bones weak, thinning of the bone sometimes they may crack or break, even the bones of your spine. Spine fractures, also known as vertebral compression fractures, comprising of severe back pain that makes it hard to stand, walk, sit, or lift objects. Keeping your bones as strong as possible can prevent the osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is of two types Type I osteoporosis:  Postmenopausal osteoporosis  this is far more common in women than in men, and typically develops between the ages of 50 and 70. This process leads to an increase in the resorption of bone (the bones loses substance).  Consistently results in a reduction in the amount of trabecular bone (the spongy bone inside of the hard-cortical bone). If the bone strength decreases overall it may lead primarily to wrist and vertebral body (in the spine) fractures. Type II osteoporosis:  Senile osteoporosis  often happens after the age...

"Lumbar spine"

Image
Lumbar spine  consists of 5 vertebral bones and the lower back of the  spine  is called as  lumbar spine . The lower vertebral column is protected by the coccyx and the sacrum. The analysis of potential fatal conditions and for the many therapeutic purposes  lumbar puncture  is done to procure the cerebrospinal fluid, medical procedure for the diagnosis. About 32% of patients carries severe morbidity and experiences the headache prior to the  lumbar puncture . Ultrasound lumbar puncture is most helpful to obsess patients with spinal disorders.  Lumbar puncture  market is expanding day by day, the market players are Beckton-Dickinson Company, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Affymetrix Inc, Ortho-clinical Diagnostics, Inc., Gen-probe, Inc., Beckman coulter Inc., Diamedix corporation, Novartis Diagnostics, Hologic, Inc., Abbott Laboratories, Inc.

"Spinal Implants market analysis & Entrepreneurs Investment Meet"

Image
Spinal implants market  has been classified as swiftly developing market and it is expected that the market will reach preeminent pinnacle in the coming future. Surgeons during the surgery use devices like Spinal implants for treating deformities, stabilizing and providing strength to the spine and to promote the fusion process. Disorders like degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, kyphosis, fracture, and spondyloses can be treated by using  Spinal implants . The bone density decreases as the age increases leads to the back-bone defects and the chronic back complications in the old age people. This raises the possibility to damage the spinal cord. Recently there have been amazing alteration in the implantable devices; the use of the implants in the spinal and orthopaedic surgeries has elevated. The advancements in the spinal implantable devices has found wider acceptance across the globe and large population is willing to spend on the spinal surgeries involving the use of...

"How Nursing Management of SCI makes patient to get relief"

Image
Spinal cord injury (CSI) patient immobilized and every precaution should be taken while transporting as the risk of secondary injury is high. Spinal cord injury (CSI) patient will have health problems consequently the main ambition in administering them is to prevent further injuries to the spinal cord , maintain physiological stability and initiating care of the skin, establishing good bladder and bowel care. The main goal of rehabilitation is to prevent obstacle and reintegration into the community. It is a multidisciplinary approach.  Nursing management  of patient with spinal cord injury can be summarized in: Provide airway and ventilator support in patients with high tetraplegia early, prevent acute respiratory failure, prevent and treat hypotension, Recognize and treat neurogenic shock, prevent pressure ulcer using biofilm, Prevent further injuries to the spinal cord. Prehospital care Critical care in NICU Nursing rehabilitation

A novel approach to complex spinal surgeries: The successful use of 3D-virtual and 3D-printed models...!!!

Image
A novel approach reported by Peter Pijpker and colleagues from the University Medical Center Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands, outlines the use of 3D virtual planning and  3D-printed models that have the ability to change how complex spinal surgeries are managed. Using this technique, surgeons were able to successfully reduce severe kyphosis in a young girl who suffers from skeletal dysplasia . You can have a several talks on this at Spine Conference 2019 in Rome on April 25, 2019

Spine Conference 2019: Spine and spinal stenosis

Image
Spinalstenosis  is the narrowing of the bone channel occupied by the spinal nerves. It is usually caused in the older people. Distinct types of stenosis are lumbar stenosis, cervical stenosis. About 30.4 percent of Japanese people are affected by stenosis. Causes involves  arthritis , trauma, tumours, instability of spine. MRI, CT scan, Red flag are the diagnosis methods of spinal stenosis. Stenosissymptoms Stenosis surgery Cervical stenosis Lumbar stenosis Stenosis diagnosis and treatment
