FRACTURE CARE & TRAUMATIC INJURIES Orthopedic trauma is a branch of orthopedic medicine related to injuries of the bones, joints, and soft tissues following a traumatic event. At Advanced Orthopedic and Spine Care, our highly trained specialists are prepared to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal injuries ranging in severity from simple sports-related fractures to multiple complex fractures sustained after a high-speed collision. Typically orthopedic trauma is divided into four categories: long bone fractures, fractures involving the joint, pelvic fractures, and fractures involving the hand or foot.

Spine and back disorders More than 80% of adults will experience significant back or neck pain at sometime during their life. The spine is a complex structure that provides both mobility and strength. Proper functioning of the neck and back allows for fluid, effortless movement. When there is a deformity, injury or disease of the spine, common activities such as turning, bending, or stretching often become painfully out of reach and often affect other parts of our body as well. Our medical professionals will help diagnose and treat your spine and back ailments.

Step-by-Step Guide to PRP Treatment Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy offers a less invasive approach compared to traditional surgery. Here's a detailed, step-by-step breakdown of the procedure: Step 1: Blood Collection A small sample of blood (between 10-60ml, depending on the PRP system) is drawn from the patient's arm, similar to a routine blood test. Step 2: Preparation of PRP The collected blood is placed in a disposable container or test tube. This container is then put into a centrifuge machin e, which spins the blood to separate its components by density. Step 3: Separation and Concentration After about 15 minutes of spinning, the blood components are separated. The process isolates the platelets, which play a crucial role in healing injuries. Step 4: Extraction of Platelets The concentrated platelets are extracted into a syringe, creating the platelet-rich plasma ready for injection. Step 5: Anesthetizing the Injection Site To minimize discomfort, the area around the injury may be numbed with a local anesthetic. Step 6: Accurate Injection Using advanced imaging techniques like fluoroscopy or dynamic musculoskeletal ultrasound, the doctor precisely injects the PRP into the damaged tendon area. A simple Band-Aid is applied to the injection site afterwards. Post-Injection Care Observation : Patients might stay under observation from a few minutes to half an hour post-injection. Managing Discomfort : Some discomfort or swelling at the injection site is normal and can last a few days, reflecting the body's natural healing response. Home Care Tips: Apply ice to the injected area to reduce swelling. Keep the leg elevated. Limit physical activities for a few days. Comfort measures, such as staying comfortable and possibly taking prescribed pain relief medication (note: anti-inflammatory drugs are not recommended as they can interfere with the treatment's inflammatory process). Follow-Up Patients often see improvement after the first treatment. However, a follow-up appointment is typically scheduled six to eight weeks later to assess progress and decide if additional injections are needed. Some may require up to three injections for optimal results. By following these steps, PRP therapy utilizes the body's own healing mechanisms to address patella tendinosis, offering a significant improvement or complete recovery for many patients without the need for invasive surgery.

WIDE BORE MRI SERVICES Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive test that uses a magnetic field and radio frequency waves to produce detailed images of soft tissue (such as tendons, ligaments and muscles), bone and other anatomical structures. The test involves no radiation and is safe for most patients. MRI is one of the best tests in advanced medical imaging for an accurate diagnosis for your physician to determine your course of care. At Advanced Orthopedic Spinecare, we offer the latest MRI technology: Wide bore MRI to ensure patient comfort and ease for claustrophobic patients High field magnet for quality imaging and faster scans Offers feet first MRIs on most anatomy Compassionate care to all patients Quality scans and superior service Accommodates larger patients with 500-pound capacity All radiologists are board certified and sub-specialty trained schedule appointment WHAT TO EXPECT The MRI technologist will position you on the table and make sure you are as comfortable as possible prior to starting the scan. Exams can be as short as 25 minutes or over an hour depending on the exam ordered. If you are claustrophobic, please inform the technologist and they will make you feel more at ease. Claustrophobic patients can also request a prescription to be filled by your pharmacy prior to the MRI. The magnet is permanently open at both ends and there is an intercom system through which the technologist and patient can communicate. When the MRI is taking the images, it will produce a loud noise. Earplugs or music will be provided during the exam to decrease the noise. Patients can also bring a CD or hook an iPod up to our radio. PREPARING FOR YOUR MRI If you have aneurysm clips, a pacemaker or certain other mechanical implants in your body, then you will not be able to have an MRI. Please inform the technologist of any implants in your body to ensure your safety. All valuables and jewelry should be left at home. You will be asked to remove any metal from your body before entering the MRI room. If possible, wear clothing without any snaps, zippers or buttons. A gown will be provided to patients who are not dressed appropriately for the exam. During the exam it is important to hold still from start to finish; this will ensure the best quality images and proper diagnosis for the patient. Our MRI is accredited by the American College of Radiology.
