action and then things really make a call here this morning like talk
00:00:03
to you about a new method the for measuring cup alignments
00:00:11
why i think it is funny because uh we've seen uh there's a relationship
00:00:16
between radiological rendered and functional outcome it's always a big debate whether
00:00:21
they're related or not hand one of these radiological parameters used is a
00:00:27
couple alignments although it's not one of the most frequent ones used
00:00:30
and then when this method is used there's always also discussion how should we met measure corporal alignment
00:00:38
and even though some studies of already said that corporal line is
00:00:41
one of the only predictors uh for a functional outcome
00:00:46
so in two thousand eleven this article was of a published which that this is which is now the most commonly
00:00:52
used method for a measuring cup alignment where you draw a line along that axis uh of the kept eight
00:00:58
and along a line along the radial shaft and when these two lines cross within the corpus we
00:01:04
say that we have carpal alignments but this method is not always as easy to reproduce
00:01:11
so we uh did a study and we wanted to look at the intern internal server variability
00:01:17
new uh that but because of the perpendicular method and we wanted to compare it to the
00:01:21
existing method and also wanted to look at the normal distribution of corporal alignment in
00:01:27
the breasts of an fractured around and fractured race
00:01:32
so how did we do this we did a retrospective the artificial study we looked at all consecutive adult patients
00:01:38
with this'll radius fractures type a and type c. with that fifty fractured race and fifty and fractured ribs
00:01:46
nelson cubic through uh this method and it's based on
00:01:50
uh using the line of louis describe the
00:01:53
several years ago and where you draw a a line along and the folder cortex
00:02:00
and you keep continuing this line and it says if you if you're
00:02:04
line crosses the centre of the cats it's you've got carpal alignment
00:02:08
so what does it look like but we compare both methods with each other we see
00:02:12
using the existing method the white lines for you cross the two lines and you
00:02:17
see that the cross and the cat in the corpus it says you should have couple
00:02:21
lyman only look at our method for each other's liner long oval or cortex
00:02:26
you can actually see it doesn't cost centres that kept it so that we believe that actually you have some now alignments and
00:02:32
with this method you can also quantify your mouth alignment so in
00:02:36
this case there was the mel alignment of eight millimetres
00:02:41
so we did not measurements for both the the existing method in the new
00:02:45
method uh by three independent reviewers and and with the injury entrap
00:02:50
server variability uh where what from excellent to pour correlation and then we
00:02:56
look for the normal distribution as well and these and fractured race
00:03:01
so we look at our right in terms or variability we
00:03:05
see every existing method it's quite high or zero
00:03:08
point eighty nine zero point six three and zero point six by the three observers with the new method
00:03:15
even higher zero point ninety six zero point eighty eight zero point seven you too
00:03:21
and then we look at what is quite alignment in and i'm fractured race is the rest and with the cops always online
00:03:28
we see that according to the most commonly used method right now there
00:03:31
was only carpal mime in about fifty nine percent of the patients
00:03:36
and with the other method the perpendicular method we found a couple lines in the seventy nine percent of patients
00:03:44
what this distribution look my of uh of the alignments you see in the normal rates most
00:03:50
of the base work are the aligned around zero but it had the
00:03:54
standard deviation of two and half millimetres fuller and dorsal displacement
00:04:00
what are the advantages as well about this method uh when taking
00:04:04
a radio grass roots positioning is always a a factor
00:04:07
but because of the correlation between the dollar cortex in the cat if we believe uh you don't really have this problem
00:04:14
so we took some pictures in various degrees of the race uh ten degrees zero degrees minus ten degrees
00:04:20
and here you see despite different angles of taking your radio crap you still
00:04:25
have a you're still able to measure the carpal alignments so the way
00:04:29
of taking a picture doesn't really uh impact uh your measurement
00:04:35
and but you all is not also have the rest positioning in here we looked
00:04:39
if you flex or the expenditure raced if you still have corporal alignments
00:04:44
uh and and you actually see here the red line that
00:04:47
no matter what service position this is the same raced
00:04:52
once you have purple line and you hold in different positions are you take it in different angles you still
00:04:57
have this carpal alignments and so this meant that because i think the relationship with each other um
00:05:04
is a lot easier to reproduce
00:05:07
so uh i think you'd actually this perpendicular method we believe it's in new repeat useful method for measuring
00:05:13
carpal lyman it takes away a lot of the disadvantages
00:05:16
of risk positioning a radio graph uh techniques
00:05:20
and you're also able to um quantifier measure of uh over the amount of now alignment
00:05:27
and believe that the next step is the testing this new method and seeing what
