Last week we posted about our recently published work looking at the CT features of short incomplete fractures of the proximal phalanx. The information learnt led us to refine our surgical technique for screw repair of these fractures, which has now been published in the journal Equine Veterinary Education.

This month in the journal Equine Veterinary Education, Nick Vos, who recently completed his internship at NEH, and NEH surgeon Matt Smith presented their findings on the computed tomographic features of short incomplete fractures of the proximal phalanx in TB racehorses. The information from their work has direct implications for managing these injuries in the most effective way.

Through the process of reviewing clinical cases and their outcomes, we continually strive to improve our success in managing injuries such this.

At NEH there are separate orthopaedic and colic operating theatres. Performing these surgeries in separate theatres allows us to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness for orthopaedic surgeries such as fracture repair. It also mean we can undertake immediate emergency colic surgery whilst continuing the busy list of elective surgeries.

We are delighted to once again publish our hospital case log. 2023 was another busy year, which saw an increase in surgery numbers, and continued low complication rates. This was only possible by the hard work and dedication of our fabulous team.

23/01/2024

At NEH a typically busy day will see six to eight surgeries performed in our orthopaedic theatre, only possible with our four anaesthetic knockdown and recovery boxes. A dedicated prep area outside of theatre, where horses are clipped and cleaned before surgery, enables us to maintain the highest standards of theatre hygiene.
