    Abstract Athletes commonly sustain high-energy direct impact injuries to the shoulder, with acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) injuries accounting for over half. Ipsilateral ACJ injury and diaphyseal clavicle fracture occur nearly 7% of the time. There is limited literature offering treatment suggestions for this unique injury pattern and limited evidence providing guidance to suggest which injury patterns should be treated operatively or nonoperatively. Here, we present successful treatment of a high-level athlete utilizing a Knotless TightRope XP placed through a superior clavicle plate with successful return to full activity at 6 months postoperation. The TightRope technique offers the ability to augment through a preexisting superior clavicular plate in a low-profile manner and promote easy suture tensioning to obtain and maintain reduction of the injured ACJ.

    Abstract Bilateral tibiofemoral knee dislocations are a relatively rare injury, and there is a scarcity of literature on its appropriate evaluation and treatment. Even less knee dislocations with concomitant popliteal artery injury have been described. Postoperative graft occlusion accounts for approximately half of the overall complication rate, occurring in up to 18% of the patients undergoing femoropopliteal bypass grafting. Furthermore, anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy after graft placement is a point of contention. Here, we describe a case of a knee dislocation with associated popliteal artery transection treated initially with successful knee-spanning external fixation and arterial grafting, respectively. At 6 weeks after injury, the patient underwent external fixation removal and closed manipulation of the knee for arthrofibrosis. After manipulation, yet still under anesthesia, distal pulses were acutely diminished and subsequent CTA demonstrated femoropopliteal graft thrombosis. This case demonstrates successful recognition, thrombectomy, and restoration of arterial blood flow, which has since been maintained. Written consent by the patient involved in this case report was obtained.

    Abstract Background: As individuals age, they may need new strategies to manage exacerbations of chronic disease to maintain their dignity and independence. Many end up in a revolving cycle of emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and post-acute care. Support to stay at home, which is often their preference, becomes a challenge and varies with insurance coverage, location, and financial status. There are few home-based options sufficiently agile enough to respond when acute conditions arise particularly with exacerbations of chronic disease.
    Methods: In 2018, Integra designed a home-based option to treat acute exacerbations of chronic illness. A partnership with community paramedicine enabled faster response times and provided additional treatment tools. Using process improvement methodology, we developed "Integra at Home" workflows and team-based care. We counted averted emergency visits and hospitalizations, patient and staff satisfaction, and evidence of financial sustainability as a result of our program.
    Results: Integra successfully developed a suite of home-based services, including responses to acute problems, to address beneficiaries' fluctuating medical needs. Following responses to 415 acute events, 74% (N = 307) resulted in averted emergency department visits. Based on InterQual® criteria, 34% (N = 103) of averted visits would have qualified as an averted hospitalization. All 64 respondents to patient surveys (N = 170) stated they would recommend our program. The staff indicated the model is a better way of caring for patients with higher rewards than traditional settings. The average length of stay in hospice for patients referred from the program (N = 22) was 4 weeks.
    Conclusions: Home-based care continuums are feasible, yet resources to manage acute exacerbations remain inadequate. To fill this gap, we created higher acuity services to respond to urgent needs and monitor symptoms between episodes. Amid successes and challenges, we are serving higher acuity older adults in Integra's home-based continuum model. We encourage further spread of longitudinal home-based acute care models.

    Abstract Medical records of dogs with dolico- or mesaticephalic conformation who were presented to a private veterinary referral dental practice with malocclusion of the deciduous or permanent dentition were retrospectively reviewed from a 3-year period (2015-2018). Records were evaluated to determine the type(s) of malocclusions and 198 dogs were evaluated with permanent malocclusions. Of the dogs with deciduous malocclusions, 45 (60%) had variations of a MAL1, 28 (38%) had a MAL2, 13 (17.6%) had a MAL3, and four (5.4%) had a MAL4, with 19 (26%) having more than one type of malocclusion. Poodles, Labrador Retrievers, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels consisted of 37 (50%) of the dogs with deciduous malocclusions. Fifty-five (74%) dogs proceeded with interceptive orthodontics. Of the dogs with permanent malocclusions, 128 (65%) had a variant of a MAL1, 60 (30%) had a MAL2, 75 (38%) had a MAL3, and 11 (5.6%) had a MAL4, with a MAL1 occurring concurrently with 49 (82%) MAL2 cases. The most common type of MAL1 was linguoversion of one or both mandibular canine teeth in 92 (72%) dogs. The five most commonly affected breeds with permanent malocclusions were Poodles, Labrador Retrievers, Chihuahuas, Pit Bull Terriers, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Overall, 39 (18%) dogs presented with malocclusions observed in this study were associated with the Poodle breed and 20 (9%) dogs were associated with the Labrador Retriever breed. This trend among Poodle mixes and Labrador Retrievers supports a familial pattern to malocclusions.

    Abstract Purpose: Collaborations between basic science educators (BE) and clinical educators (CE) in medical education are common and necessary to create integrated learning materials. However, few studies describe experiences of or processes used by educators engaged in interdisciplinary teamwork. We use the lens of boundary crossing to explore processes described by BE and CE that support the co-creation of integrated learning materials, and the impact that this work has on them.
    Materials and methods: We conducted qualitative content analysis on program evaluation data from 27 BE and CE who worked on 12 teams as part of a multi-institutional instructional design project.
    Results: BE and CE productively engaged in collaboration using boundary crossing mechanisms. These included respecting diverse perspectives and expertise and finding efficient processes for completing shared work that allow BE and CE to build on each other's contributions. BE and CE developed confidence in connecting clinical concepts with causal explanations, and willingness to engage in and support such collaborations at their own institutions.
    Conclusions: BE and CE report the use of boundary crossing mechanisms that support collaboration in instructional design. Such practices could be harnessed in future collaborations between BE and CE.

    Abstract Septic arthritis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in dogs and other mammals is a rare condition. It is typically associated with notable pain, swelling, and difficulty in opening the mouth. Unlike degenerative TMJ disease, septic arthritis requires urgent intervention. The etiology of the condition may include penetrating trauma, an extension of local infection, such as otitis media, or the hematogenous spread of a pathogen. However, the precise cause may not always be identified. Diagnostic imaging with Computed Tomography (CT), cone-beam CT (CBCT), and/or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are helpful for honing the definitive diagnosis and formulating a treatment plan. Subsequently, exploratory surgery may be required to obtain samples for culture and sensitivity and histology and to lavage the joint. In this "methods" article, we provide a detailed description of our approach to diagnosis and management of septic TMJ arthritis in four dogs.
