Six percent of all fractures in the world reflect proximal humerus fractures.(1) The second most common fracture of the upper limb is the proximal humerus fracture, accounting for 45% of all humeral fractures.Proximal humerus fractures are reported to be quite recurrent in elderly people. The care should focus on functional rehabilitation and management of pain. Intervention modalities include non-operative modalities and osteosynthesis or arthroplasty depending on the case. This is a caseof a farmer who sustained injury to left upper limb due to fall. He complained of pain and swelling and was diagnosed with fracture of proximal left humerus. It was treated with open reduction internal fixation with PHILOS (The Proximal Humeral Internal Locking Osteosynthesis) plating. Patient came back withdischarge and swelling from suture site which suggested infection. Fracture of proximal left humerus with functional limitations. open reduction internal fixation with PHILOS plating followed by physiotherapy rehabilitation. Timely treatment and proper rehabilitation can help to resume functional efficiency of fractured upper limb independently.
Introduction: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has shaken humanity to its core. In the physical distancing, span of vaccination is the most remarkable protective measure for outspreading disease. Shutdown of universities and schools has made education undetermined at every levels. During this pandemic, the demand for a well-trained generation of upcoming doctors is greater than it has ever been in our living memory. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, medical education now requires mandatory e-learning. However, in emerging countries like India, the scope of the challenges remains unexplored (with wide socioeconomic and cultural diversity). At this critical juncture, we want to see if online teaching approaches for medical students are as appropriate, beneficial and accessible.Method: A cross-sectional study will be conducted in Ravi Nair College of Physiotherapy, India, with a sample size of 150 students aged 18 to 30 years with the study duration will be 6 months. The participants will be asked to fill the questionnaire through an electronic survey in Google Forms. And after completion of the study result will be calculated by systemic data analysis.Discussion: During the COVID-19 pandemics, this study will assess the approach of healthcare students in perceiving online learning. The research will help understand more about their views on e-learning as a device for assisting their education throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, a better understanding of this may aid in the formulation of future medical school curricula.The Institutional Ethical Clearance reference number for this study is RNPC/IEC/2020-21/0014.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
