Severe open tibiofibular fractures account for approximately 28.1% of all open fractures. Among them, Gustilo-Anderson type IIIB/C fractures present significant clinical challenges due to associated bone and soft tissue defects, high infection rates, and risk of amputation. Inadequate preoperative assessment may lead to suboptimal emergency surgical planning or intraoperative complications. Historically, external fixation was often preferred, but this approach has been associated with limitations such as restricted joint mobility, delayed bone union, joint stiffness, and disuse osteoporosis, resulting in poor functional recovery. With advancements of debridement techniques, standardization of antibiotic use, and popularization of early soft tissue coverage, early internal fixation has gained broader acceptance. Nevertheless, controversies persist regarding the choice of fixation method, timing of definitive fixation, use of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing, and necessity of fibular fixation. To standardize the diagnosis and early management of severe open tibiofibular fractures, reduce complication rates, and improve functional recovery, the Society of Microsurgery of the Chinese Medical Association organized a panel of domestic experts to develop the Evidence-based guideline for the diagnosis and early fixation of severe open tibiofibular fractures ( version 2025), using evidence-based methodology. The guidelines provided 12 recommendations covering diagnostic and early fixation strategies of severe open tibiofibular fractures, aiming to provide clinicians with scientifically grounded and standardized guidance.

Hand degloving injury represents one of the most severe forms of hand trauma, characterised by challenging treatment and a complex prognostic outcome. It is crucial to effectively utilise the degloved tissues in emergency or primary repair of a hand degloving injury. This consensus provides a comprehensive review of the existing literature on definition, classification, emergency assessment, debridement, judgment of skin viability, in situ repair of the degloved skin, and adjunctive treatment for degloving injury of hand. Based on conclusion of both domestic and international experiences, this expert consensus on the classification of hand degloving injury and the emergency repair with the avulsed skin is established, aiming to provide a guidance to surgeons on standardised treatment strategy and improve the management of hand degloving injury.

Replantation of traumatic amputation in children has its own characteristics. This consensus primarily focuses on the issues related to the treatment of traumatically amputated limb injuries in children. Organised along a timeline, the consensus summarises domestic and international clinical experiences in emergency care and injury assessment of traumatic limb amputation limbs, indications and contraindications for replantation surgery, principles and procedures of replantation surgery, postoperative medication and management, as well as rehabilitation in children. The aim of this consensus is to propose standardise the treatment protocols for limb replantation for children therefore to serve as a reference for clinical practitioners in medical practices, and further improve the treatment and care for the traumatic limb amputations in children.

Objective:To understand the current situation of nurses in 52 hospitals in China on mastery of knowledge about skin injury in the elderly based on the background of mixed-mode homogenization training.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 1 067 nurses from 52 hospitals in China were selected as the research objects in January 2021. A self-designed questionnaire on knowledge of skin injury in the elderly was used to investigate the nurses through the questionnaire star and univariate analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors. A total of 1 067 questionnaires were distributed and 1 067 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the effective recovery rate was 100%.Results:The knowledge scores of pressure injury, incontinence-associated dermatitis, skin tear and xerosis cutis among 1067 nurses were (95.66±7.37) , (95.65±9.15) , (91.37±15.45) and (87.67±15.91) , respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed that hospital grade was the influencing factor of nurses' knowledge score of pressure injury, skin tear and incontinence-associated dermatitis ( P<0.05) , educational background was the influencing factor of nurses' knowledge score of skin tear ( P<0.05) , professional title was the influencing factor of nurses' knowledge scores of pressure injury, incontinence-associated dermatitis and xerosis cutis ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Hospitals at all levels need to strengthen the theoretical and practical knowledge training for nurses on skin xerosis and skin tear in the elderly, especially for nurses with primary titles and lower education in grassroots hospitals.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the effects of nerve block anesthesia versus general anesthesia on intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly. Methods The 104 elderly inpatients undergoing closed reduction and intramedullary nailing for the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures were recruited into this study at Department of Orthopedics ,Xiangya Hospital ,Central South University from January 2015 to June 2017.Medical records were collected and analyzed by SPSS 16.0 or GraphPad Prism 6.0 software. Results A total of 104 patients were divided into general anesthesia group(n= 48 )and nerve block anesthesia group (n= 56 ). There was no statistical difference in the demographic characteristics between the two groups. The changes in heart rate ,maximum changes of systolic/diastolic blood pressures ,and infusion volume during surgery were lower in the nerve block anesthesia group than in the general anesthesia group [(12.7 ± 7.3)vs. (18.1 ± 7.8)beats/min ,(22.5 ± 8.8/12.2 ± 7.5)mmHg vs. (34.3 ± 7.9/21.6 ± 6.6)mmHg ,(792.9 ± 387.0)ml vs. (1 083.0 ± 445.5)ml ,respectively ,t=3.64 ,7.14 ,6.73 ,5.16 ,all P＜0.01]. There was no statistically significant difference between two groups in other perioperative data and the number of deaths at three months and one year after surgery. Conclusions As compared with the general anesthesia ,the nerve block anesthesia has less effects on the heart rate ,less maximum changes of systolic and diastolic blood pressures ,and less infusion volume during surgery ,and has no significant increase in postoperative mortality ,which is safe and worthy of further promotion.

OBJECTIVE:To provide the clinical departments with a reference for promoting rational drug use. METHODS:The inpatient prescriptions given by orthopaedics and burn departments from Jun. to Dec. 2013 were selected randomly. The number of the selected prescriptions by each department accounted for 2% of the total prescriptions given by the corresponding department in that month,including 4 921 cases by orthopaedics department and 1 391 cases by burn department. Statistical analysis of irrational prescriptions was made according to Chinese Pharmacopoeia,New Materia Medica,the package insert, and other relevant references. RESULTS:1 821 prescriptions given by orthopaedics department and 378 by burn department were found to be irrational,accounting for 37.00% and 27.17% respectively. The reasons of irrationality mainly included im-proper compatibility,improper route of administration,contraindication in and use with caution by the elderly and children,re-peated drug use,improper drug combination etc. CONCLUSIONS:The system of prescription review should be strengthened, and clinical staff training system and pharmaceatical knowledge information platform are established to promote rational use of drugs.
