Cervical Alignment l Anterior vertebral body l Posterior vertebral body l Spinolaminal line l Spinous process tips

Compression/Burst fracture

Where’s the blood? Chest… Abdomen… Pelvis… Thigh… Spine… Head... CXR Normal U/S: fluid! Pelvis XR Normal Thigh exam ok Abnormal neuro/XR! Norml exam

Manage Blood in the Abdomen: Fluid, Blood, OR Manage Neuro Shock: Pressors (dopamine)

If he’s still hypotensive: OR! If BP normalizes: CT! 3 liters IVF…. BP 95/60, HR 110…

Where’s the blood? Chest… Abdomen… Pelvis… Thigh… Spine… Head... CXR Normal U/S: fluid! CT++ Pelvis XR Normal Thigh exam ok Abnormal neuro/XR Norml exam

Goes to the OR – remove the spleen. Stabilizes….. Neurosurg next – stabilize spine Discharge to a tough road ahead….

CASE #2

56 yo male -EMS Response for altered level of consciousness -Chief complaint: alcohol detox & suicidality…. Drinks every day, homeless…found in the gutter….. Negative review of systems Transported to Emergency Department and Emergency Psychiatry for medical clearance to detox Meds: NoneNKDA Pmhx: Negative Exam: intoxicated, no signs of trauma, GCS=15 Intoxicated, sobers up in the ED overnight

Transported to Emergency Department and Emergency Psychiatry for medical clearance Intoxicated, sobers up in the ED overnight 8 a.m.: Psychiatrist consult to me…. “Trying to decide whether he should have a head CT, he’s been falling down a lot lately….”

Crocodile Hunter: The Early Years... Future Career? When do we do a Head CT?

The Canadian CT Head Rule for Pts with Minor Head Injury The Lancet 2001;357: l New Orleans’ CT rule published in 2000 New England Journal Medicine. l 3121 Canadians to 10 large Canadian hospitals.

Lancet 01;357: Minor head inj = witnessed LOC, definite amnesia, or witnessed disorientation

Basilar Skull FX Clinical Diagnosis -Racoon’s Eyes -Hemotympanum -Battle Signs (Rhino/Otorrhea)

New Orlean’s/Charity Criteria 7 components: Headache, Vomiting, age>60, drug or Etoh Intox, memory impairment, trauma above the clavicles, seizure. (No GCS, No Mechanism) Haydel: NEJM 2000;343:100-5

Developing a decision instrument to guide CT imaging of blunt head injury pts J Trauma 2005;59: l 21 hospitals. l 13,728 Patients l 917 Injuries on CT (6.7%)

Recursive partitioning: 8 Criteria l Evidence of Skull Fracture l Scalp Hematoma l Neurologic Deficit l Altered Level of Alertness l Abnormal Behavior l Coagulopathy l Persistent Vomiting l Age > 65 Years Mower: J Trauma 2005;59: Unique to this study

Burton’s Rules: Vomiting, age>60, memory impairment, basilar skull or open/depressed, seizure, GCS 60, memory impairment, basilar skull or open/depressed, seizure, GCS <15 +/?Loss of Consciousness and nothing else = No CT

Solution: Wear a Helmet

56 yo male -EMS Response for altered level of consciousness -Chief complaint: alcohol detox & suicidality…. Transported to Emergency Department and Emergency Psychiatry for medical clearance Intoxicated, sobers up in the ED overnight 8 a.m.: Psychiatrist consult to me…. “Trying to decide whether he should have a head CT, he’s been falling down a lot lately….”

Burton’s Rules for Head CT: Vomiting, age>60, memory impairment, basilar skull or open/depressed, seizure, GCS 60, memory impairment, basilar skull or open/depressed, seizure, GCS <15, anything abnormal and a history of alcoholism +/?LOC and nothing else = No CT

CASE #3

54 year old male Right Hip Injury History: Water Skiing – one ski, right leg Abduction injury PMHx: None Drugs: NoneAllergies: None Exam: GCS=15, pulse ox = 96%; HR=115, BP =145/78 Right hip and knee flexed – pain to right hip. Right hip and knee flexed – pain to right hip. No other injury

54 year old male Right Hip Injury History: Water Skiing – one ski, right leg Abduction injury - EMS - Fentanyl –multiple doses - In the ED - MSO4 – 20 mg over multiple doses -XR: Fracture/Dislocation R hip. - “Native” hip dislocation

“Native” Hip Dislocation 1) Every hour that passes = 10% increase in ischemic necrosis of femoral head – not to be confused with PROSTHETIC Hip Dislocation 2) Many will not have a fracture – only dislocation 3) Reduction in hip = reduction in pain! 4) Check for neurologic/vascular deficit 5)Immobilize and get moving! (to a trauma center)

54 year old male Right Hip Injury History: Water Skiing – one ski, right leg Abduction injury - In the ED Propofol for sedation… very heavy sedation, multiple doses - Failed reduction attempts - Reduced in the OR! “Native” hip dislocation
