The AAOS has been committed to working with ONC in the adoption of electronic health records. As surgical specialists, we have unique Health Information Technology (HIT) needs and respectfully offer some suggestions to improve interoperability to better reflect the needs of our surgical specialists and their patients and accelerate HIT adoption in the future by orthopaedic surgeons. The AAOS thanks ONC in advance for its solicitation and consideration of the following comments and concerns. We have structured our comments in the order that ONC is soliciting public feedback in the RFI document referenced above. Scope of Measurement: Defining Interoperability and Population The focus of measurement should not be limited to “meaningful Electronic Health Records (EHR) users,” as defined (e.g., eligible professionals, eligible hospitals, and CAHs that attest to meaningful use of certified EHR technology under CMS’ Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs), and their exchange partners.

  • Chapter 5 Upper Limb Anatomy Bones and Joints
    Chapter 5 Upper limb anatomy Bones and joints Scapula Costal Surface The costal (anterior) surface of the scapula faces the ribcage. It contains a large concave depression over most of its surface, known as the subscapular fossa. The subscapularis (rotator cuff muscle) originates from this fossa. Originating from the superolateral surface of the costal scapula is the coracoid process. It is a hook-like projection, which lies just underneath the clavicle. Three muscles attach to the coracoid process: the pectoralis minor, coracobrachialis, the short head of biceps brachii. Acromion Coracoid process Glenoid fossa Subscapular fossa © teachmeanatomy Lateral surface • Glenoid fossa - a shallow cavity, located superiorly on the lateral border. It articulates with the head of the humerus to form the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint. • Supraglenoid tubercle - a roughening immediately superior to the glenoid fossa. The place of attachment of the long head of the biceps brachii. • Infraglenoid tubercle - a roughening immediately inferior to the glenoid fossa. The place of attachment of the long head of the triceps brachii. Supraglenoid tubercle Glenoid fossa Infraglenoid tubercle gn teachmeanatomy Posterior surface • Spine - the most prominent feature of the posterior scapula. It runs transversely across the scapula, dividing the surface into two. • Acromion - projection of the spine that arches over the glenohumeral joint and articulates with the clavicle at the acromioclavicular joint. • Infraspinous fossa - the area below the spine of the scapula, it displays a convex shape. The infraspinatus muscle originates from this area. • Supraspinous fossa - the area above the spine of the scapula, it is much smaller than the infraspinous fossa, and is more convex in shape.The supraspinatus muscle originates from this area.

  • The Critical Shoulder Angle As a Diagnostic Measure for Osteoarthritis and Rotator Cuff Pathology
    Open Access Original Article DOI: 10.7759/cureus.11447 The Critical Shoulder Angle as a Diagnostic Measure for Osteoarthritis and Rotator Cuff Pathology Zak Rose-Reneau 1 , Amanda K. Moorefield 1 , Derek Schirmer 1 , Eugene Ismailov 1 , Rob Downing 2 , Barth W. Wright 1 1. Anatomy, Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences, Kansas City, USA 2. Graduate Medical Education, University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC), Kansas City, USA Corresponding author: Amanda K. Moorefield, [email protected] Abstract The purpose of this study was to correlate critical shoulder angle (CSA), a measurement that takes into account both glenoid tilt and the acromial index (AI), with shoulder pathologies as presented in an earlier study by Moor et al. (2013). Based on Moor et al.’s predicted normal CSA range of 30-35°, we hypothesized that a greater-than-normal CSA would be correlated to or associated with rotator cuff pathology, while a smaller-than-normal CSA would be associated with osteoarthritis (OA). Following Moore et al., we utilized Grashey radiographic imaging because it provides the clearest view of the entire glenoid fossa and acromion. We analyzed 323 anterior-posterior (AP) radiographs to identify and measure the CSA, classifying each patient into one of five groups [none reported (n=94), mild OA (n=156), moderate OA (n=36), severe OA (n=37), and rotator cuff pathology (n=40)]. Our results were statistically significant, supporting the association of smaller CSAs with OA and larger CSAs with rotator cuff pathology. CSA measurements could provide a new means for identifying shoulder pathology and thereby reduce the need for costly and timely imaging techniques.

See whether you can locate each on the diagram. Proximal end: Medial condyle Lateral condyle Tibial plateaus Intercondylar eminence Tibial tuberosity Body – features anterior crest Distal end: Medial malleolus Fibular notch The head of the fibula is located at its proximal end and has a pointed apex laterally. Distally, the fibular features the lateral malleolus. The articulations between the two leg bones are discussed on Screen 1.13. Knee….. The knee joint is the articulation between the femoral condyles and the tibial plateaus. Numerous soft tissues support and reinforce the knee, including the: Menisci Cruciate ligaments Collateral ligaments These supporting soft tissue structures are enclosed in a common joint capsule. The knee joint is of the hinge type, capable of flexion and extension only. The anterior knee joint is protected by the patella and patellofemoral joint. The patella is the largest and most constant sesamoid bone. It develops in the quadriceps femoris tendon between the ages of 3 and 5 years.

  • Anatomy, Bony Pelvis and Lower Limb, Leg Bones
    NCBI Bookshelf. A service of the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health. StatPearls [Internet]. Treasure Island (FL): StatPearls Publishing; 2018 Jan-. Anatomy, Bony Pelvis and Lower Limb, Leg Bones Authors Austin J. Cantrell1; Matthew Varacallo2. Affiliations 1 University of Oklahoma College of Med. 2 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Kentucky School of Medicine Last Update: January 17, 2019. Introduction The leg is the region of the lower limb between the knee and the foot. It comprises two bones: the tibia and the fibula. The role of these two bones is to provide stability and support to the rest of the body, and through articulations with the femur and foot/ankle and the muscles attached to these bones, provide mobility and the ability to ambulate in an upright position. The tibia articulates with the femur at the knee joint. The knee joint consists of three compartments [1][2] medial tibiofemoral compartment lateral tibiofemoral compartment patellofemoral compartment At the ankle, the tibia and fibula create the articular surface for the talus. The ankle mortise is a specialized articulation providing support and optimizing motion and function through the ankle joint. A normal ankle joint ultimately optimizes and allows for physiologic mobility of the foot and its associated joints and articulations. The bones and fascia also divide the lower leg into four compartments [3][4] anterior compartment lateral compartment posterior compartment, superficial posterior compartment, deep Structure and Function The tibia is the second largest bone in the body and provides support for a significant portion of the weight-bearing forces transmitted from the rest of the body.
