  There is considerable variation in the management of FFP, especially in diagnostic and treatment strategies, among experts in the field of pelvic surgery. This is due, in part, to a lack of high-quality studies and clinical practice guidelines. According to surveyed experts, there is a need to develop evidence-based guidelines for optimal management of FFP. In the meantime, orthopedic practitioners should have an awareness of the significant burden and impact of FFP on patients and healthcare systems.

  This OTA International Journal CME activity consists of a journal article, a self-assessment exam, and an evaluation. The findings of this study suggest that 2.7 mm plate fixation of ulna fractures may lead to a lower rate of refracture compared to fixation with a 3.5 mm plate.

  2024 Journal CME: The effect of restrictive fluid management on outcomes among geriatric hip fractures: a retrospective cohort study at five level I trauma centers

  This OTA International Journal CME activity consists of a journal article, a self-assessment exam, and an evaluation. Previous research has shown restrictive fluid management (RFM) to be associated with reduced mortality for trauma patients who arrive hemodynamically unstable, or those with penetrating trauma. However, there is a lack of research evaluating the efficacy of RFM among geriatric patients who suffered hip fractures, and typically do not meet the definition of hemodynamically unstable. After completing this CME course, you should be able to describe the risks evaluated and potential benefits of restrictive fluid management identified in this retrospective propensity matched study in a population of geriatric trauma patients who suffered hip fractures.

  This OTA International Journal CME activity consists of a journal article, a self-assessment exam, and an evaluation. While it is known that sexual dysfunction is a common adverse outcome associated with pelvic ring injuries, less well known is its association with acetabular fractures. This study indicates the need to ask questions regarding sexual function in follow up of acetabular fractures and to make appropriate referrals when needed.
