    Title translation Controversies in promoting young talent in orthopedics and trauma surgery.
    Abstract Background: The field of orthopedics and trauma surgery is facing a serious shortage of new talent due to the increasing average age of active surgeons and a growing need for staff. The appeal of these specialties is declining among medical students.
    Solutions: This trend could be reversed by introducing practice-oriented curricula, mentoring programs, and early integration into professional societies. The quality of surgical education, especially bedside teaching, needs to be improved, as it is often compromised by a lack of time and insufficient pedagogical training of the educators. The practical year (PY) is crucial to attract students to these specialties, but data indicate that the quality of training in orthopedics and trauma surgery is inferior compared to other fields. Professional societies could enhance junior development through targeted programs. Moreover, the problem of recruitment is compounded by imbalanced gender ratios and working conditions that do not align with modern family models or efficient surgical training. There needs to be a rethinking of work scheduling and task distribution in surgery to make the profession more attractive and to ensure the quality of training.

    Abstract Advances in technology and digital tools like the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and sensors are shaping the field of orthopaedic surgery on all levels, from patient care to research and facilitation of logistic processes. Especially the COVID-19 pandemic, with the associated contact restrictions was an accelerator for the development and introduction of telemedical applications and digital alternatives to classical in-person patient care. Digital applications already used in orthopaedic surgery include telemedical support, online video consultations, monitoring of patients using wearables, smart devices, surgical navigation, robotic-assisted surgery, and applications of artificial intelligence in forms of medical image processing, three-dimensional (3D)-modelling, and simulations. In addition to that immersive technologies like virtual, augmented, and mixed reality are increasingly used in training but also rehabilitative and surgical settings. Digital advances can therefore increase the accessibility, efficiency and capabilities of orthopaedic services and facilitate more data-driven, personalized patient care, strengthening the self-responsibility of patients and supporting interdisciplinary healthcare providers to offer for the optimal care for their patients.

    Abstract A novel simple, specific, sensitive, accurate and precise reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic method (RP-HPLC/UV) was developed and validated for the simultaneous estimation of Glycopyrronium bromide (GLY), Indacaterol acetate (IND) and Mometasone furoate (MOF) in pure form, in laboratory prepared mixtures and in pharmaceutical dosage form. Experimental design methodology was applied by using Plackett-Burman and face-centered composite designs to achieve the best resolution with minimum experimental trials. The designed model was statistically analyzed, graphically presented by surface plots and the relationships between coefficients of the derived polynomial equations were interpreted. Chromatographic separation was achieved on Inertsil ODS C

    Abstract Objectives: Proximal femur fractures (PFF) are common injuries in elderly patients and can have considerable effects on their quality of life, morbidity, and mortality. Due to pre-existing comorbidities, the prevalence of anticoagulated patients is increasing. The right timing for surgery and perioperative anticoagulation treatment remains controversial.
    Content: This overview aims to summarize current practices in the pre- and postoperative anticoagulation management and the recommended time to surgery in elderly patients with PFF.
    Summary and outlook: Time to surgery for anticoagulated patients is often prolonged due to worries about serious perioperative bleeding and higher transfusion demands. But the delay of surgical PFF treatment increases the risk for perioperative complications like pulmonary embolism, pneumonia, deep vein thrombosis and urinary tract infections. Early surgery can be achieved with a consistent and interdisciplinary perioperative anticoagulation management. Antiplatelets do not have to be discontinued and surgery should be performed early without delay. For patients taking vitamin K antagonists (VKA) an INR less than 1.5 is recommended prior to surgery, which can be achieved by pausing VKA intake or by administering vitamin K, prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) or fresh frozen plasma (FFP). For the treatment with direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) a plasma drug level of under 50 pg/mL is considered safe for surgery. If the plasma level can not be determined, a gap of 24 h between the last DOAC dose and surgery is recommended. The systemic administration of tranexamic acid can reduce overall blood loss and transfusion rates in anticoagulated patients with PFF. Surgical treatment of PFF should be performed within 24 h, as delayed surgery increases the risk for perioperative complications. This also applies to anticoagulated patients, when clinically appropriate. International and interdisciplinary guidelines are necessary to ensure early and appropriate treatment of anticoagulated elderly patients with PFF.

    Abstract Background: Social media (SM) has been recognized as a professional communication tool in the field of orthopedic and trauma surgery that can enhance communication with patients and peers, and increase the visibility of research and offered services. The specific purposes of professional SM use and the benefits and concerns among orthopedic and trauma surgeons, however, remain unexplored.
    Objective: This study aims to demonstrate the specific uses of different SM platforms among orthopedic and trauma surgeons in Germany as well as the advantages and concerns.
    Methods: A web-based questionnaire was developed on the use of SM in a professional context by considering the current literature and the authors' topics of interest. The final questionnaire consisted of 33 questions and was distributed among German orthopedic and trauma surgeons via the mail distributor of the Berufsverband für Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie (Professional Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons in Germany). The study was conducted between June and July 2022. A subgroup analysis was performed for sex (male vs female), age (<60 years vs ≥60 years), and type of workplace (practice vs hospital).
    Results: A total of 208 participants answered the questionnaire (male: n=166, 79.8%; younger than 60 years: n=146, 70.2%). In total, all of the participants stated that they use SM for professional purposes. In contrast, the stated specific uses of SM were low. Overall, the most used platforms were employment-oriented SM, messenger apps, and Facebook. Instagram emerged as a popular choice among female participants and participants working in hospital settings. The highest specific use of SM was for professional networking, followed by receiving and sharing health-related information. The lowest specific use was for education and the acquisition of patients. Conventional websites occupied a dominating position, exceeding the use of SM across all specific uses. The key benefit of SM was professional networking. Under 50% of the participants stated that SM could be used to enhance communication with their patients, keep up-to-date, or increase their professional visibility. In total, 65.5% (112/171) of participants stated that SM use was time-consuming, 43.9% (76/173) stated that they lacked application knowledge, and 45.1% (78/173) stated that they did not know what content to post. Additionally, 52.9% (91/172) mentioned medicolegal concerns.
    Conclusions: Overall, SM did not seem to be used actively in the professional context among orthopedic and trauma surgeons in Germany. The stated advantages were low, while the stated concerns were high. Adequate education and information material are needed to elucidate the possible professional applications of SM and to address legal concerns.

    Title translation Immersive virtuelle Realität in der Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie als Wahlfach für Medizinstudierende : Erste Erfahrungen in der curricularen Lehre.
    Abstract Background: Virtual reality (VR) simulators have been introduced for skills training in various medical disciplines to create an approximately realistic environment without the risk of patient harm and have improved to more immersive VR (iVR) simulators at affordable costs. There is evidence that training on VR simulators improves technical skills but its use in orthopedic training programs and especially in curricular teaching sessions for medical students are currently not well established. The aim of this study was to describe the implementation of a VR operating theater as an elective course for undergraduate medical students and to evaluate its effect on student learning.
    Methods: An elective course for 12 students was implemented during the summer semester of 2023. Using Oculus Quest 2 headsets (Reality Labs, Meta Platforms, USA) and controllers and the PrecisionOS platform, they were able to train five different surgical procedures. The courses were accompanied by weekly topic discussions and instructional videos. Students were assigned to two groups: group VR vs. group non-VR. The groups were switched after 5 weeks. User feedback and performance development (theoretical and procedural surgical knowledge) after VR training were assessed using three questionnaires.
    Results: The students highly appreciated the implementation of VR training into their curriculum and 91% stated that they would opt for further VR training. All students stated that VR training improved their understanding of surgical procedures and that it should be obligatory in surgical training for undergraduate medical students. After 5 weeks of training, students in the VR group achieved significantly better results (100 out of maximum 180 points) than the non-VR group (70 points, p = 0.0495) in procedural surgical knowledge. After completion of the VR training the VR group achieved 106 points and the non-VR group 104 points (p = 0.8564). The procedural knowledge for non-VR group after 5 weeks significantly improved after VR training from 70 to 106 points (p = 0.0087).
    Conclusion: The iVR can be easily integrated into the curriculum of medical students and is highly appreciated by the participants. The iVR statistically improves the procedural knowledge of surgical steps compared to conventional teaching methods. Further implementation of iVR training in curricular teaching of medical students should be considered.
