“…Researchers further observed that fractures at the neck of the femur and tibia were more common in patients aged 30 to <60 years (Aloudah et al, 2020). This is similar to other research, which found that traffic accidents resulted in the highest number of injuries, including fractures of the lower extremities (44.7%) (Martins et al, 2021). A common mechanism occurs when a collision occurs with another motorized vehicle.…”

“…A common mechanism occurs when a collision occurs with another motorized vehicle. This mechanism also commonly occurs in KLL events in China, India, and Nigeria (Martins et al, 2021). Subsequent research found that the dominant location of multiple fractures occurred in the extremities, which caused quite a large number of disabilities.…”

Multiple fractures are one of the consequences of traffic accidents (KLL). The most frequently affected locations are the extremities, especially the lower extremities. The group most commonly involved is motorcyclists, where the incident is more common in developing countries. A 32-year-old man was brought to the emergency room from the local health center after experiencing a traffic accident. The patient had previously received initial treatment through immobilization and situational suturing. The patient is suspected of having fractures in both forearms and right thigh. Then, the patient underwent initial surgery and was referred to undergo further surgery due to limited equipment at the previous hospital. This case discusses the challenges in treating multiple fractures in patients involved in traffic accidents, emphasizing the need for rapid and appropriate initial treatment and adequate follow-up management. Optimal management will also provide a good prognosis. This case shows that traffic accident patients have a high potential for experiencing multiple fractures, which often affect the extremities. This case wants to provide information that early treatment primary and secondary survey include providing fluid therapy and pressure dressings are things that must be done immediately to get a good prognosis and best results.

“…Not only can patients undergo painless neurosurgery, but with the development of visualization techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and neuroendoscopy. Diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases have become more reliable [ 4 ]. Tamborska et al stated that the Neurosurgical Navigation System (NNS) concept originated in the 1990s [ 5 ].…”

In order to solve the problem of nursing education of lateral oblique complications, a nursing education solution of lateral oblique complications of neurosurgery under the microscope was proposed. The method used subjective evaluation and objective evaluation to systematically evaluate the basic training module. In subjective evaluation, the authenticity score of surgical simulator was 3.65 ± 0.01 , the realism score of surgical instruments was 3.81 ± 0.01 , the realism score of tactile sense was 3.75 ± 0.01 , the operating environment score was 3.60 ± 0.01 , and the overall effect score was 3.63 ± 0.01 . The difficulty score of the whole training was 3.15 ± 0.01 . In the aspect of objective evaluation, the entropy method was used to process the data of training track, training angle, training time, trigger times, success times, failure times, and other indicators of 24 trainers collected, and the experiment verified the nursing education of lateral oblique complications of neurosurgery under the microscope.

“…A motorcycle crash might have fewer injuries because the impact of the crash throws the rider and passenger off the bike which limits the number of injuries, while in an enclosed compartment of a vehicle, the momentum of the crash is transmitted to the patient inside, hence more injuries. A retrospective review of motorcycle trauma at a tertiary care hospital in Pakistan reported that 19.5% of all victims had poly trauma [30] . Commonest regions affected are limbs, chest, and abdomen.…”
