Compact Hand Plates - 2.0 mm Y-Adaption Sizes
Comprehensive Guide for Compact Hand Plates - 2.0 mm Y-Adaption
- Patient Evaluation : The surgeon conducts a thorough evaluation of the patient's medical history, hand condition, and any previous surgeries.
- Imaging : X-rays, CT scans, or other diagnostic imaging studies are conducted to evaluate the hand's anatomy, the nature of the injury or condition, and the precise location for surgery.
- Medical Clearance: If the patient has underlying medical conditions, they may need to obtain medical clearance from their primary care physician or specialists to ensure they are suitable for surgery.
- Surgical Planning :The surgeon reviews the imaging results to plan the procedure, including the selection of the appropriate plate size, length, and the placement of the "Compact Hand Plates - 2.0 mm Y-Adaption" based on the patient's unique anatomy and the specific hand issue.
- Informed Consent : The surgeon thoroughly discusses the surgical procedure, potential risks, benefits, and expected outcomes with the patient. Informed consent is obtained to ensure the patient's understanding and agreement to proceed.
- Anesthesia Evaluation : An anesthesia consultation may be conducted to determine the most suitable anesthesia approach (local, regional, or general anesthesia) based on the patient's medical history and the surgical complexity.
- Patient Positioning : The patient is positioned on the operating table with the affected hand accessible and exposed within a sterile field.
- Incision : A carefully planned incision is made over the area of the hand requiring surgery. The incision's length and location depend on the specific condition and surgical approach.
- Fracture Reduction or Reconstruction : The surgeon manipulates and reduces fractures or performs reconstructive procedures as needed, ensuring proper alignment.
- Plate Placement : The "Compact Hand Plates - 2.0 mm Y-Adaption" are positioned over the fracture or surgical site. The surgeon selects the appropriate holes for screw placement to achieve stable fixation and alignment.
- Screw Fixation : Orthopedic screws, matching the plate's dimensions (2.0mm), are inserted through the plate's Y-Adaption design and into the bone to secure the plate in place.
- Wound Closure : The incision is meticulously closed using sutures or staples, ensuring a clean and infection-free wound closure.
- Recovery Room : The patient is monitored in the recovery room to ensure stable vital signs and the absence of immediate post-operative complications.
- Pain Management : Pain management protocols are initiated as needed to keep the patient comfortable.
- Physical Therapy : Depending on the surgeon's recommendations, physical therapy and rehabilitation exercises may be initiated to promote hand mobility, strength, and function.
- Follow-Up Appointments : The patient is scheduled for follow-up appointments with the surgeon to monitor the healing process, remove sutures or staples, and assess overall recovery.
- X-ray Monitoring :Regular X-rays are taken to evaluate bone healing, the position of the implant, and the progress of hand recovery.
