RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Blood transfusion is one of the most common medical practices worldwide. However, current scientific literature has shown that the immunomodulatory effects of blood transfusion are associated with an increased likelihood of infection, prolonged hospitalization, and morbimortality. Also, it means high costs for healthcare systems. METHODS: In this context, acknowledging that blood transfusions are essentially heterologous cell transplantations, the use of therapeutic options has gained strength and is collectively known as the patient blood management (PBM) program. PBM is an approach based on three main pillars: (1) treating anemias and coagulopathies in an optimized manner, especially in the preoperative period; (2) optimizing perioperative hemostasis and the use of blood recovery systems to avoid the loss of the patient's blood; (3) anemia tolerance, with improved oxygen delivery and reduced oxygen demand, particularly in the postoperative period. RESULTS: Current scientific evidence supports the effectiveness of PBM by reducing the need for blood transfusions, decreasing associated complications, and promoting more efficient and safer blood management. Thus, PBM not only improves clinical outcomes for patients but also contributes to the economic sustainability of healthcare systems. CONCLUSION: The aim of this review was to summarize PBM strategies in a comprehensive, evidence-based approach through a systematic and structured model for PBM implementation in tertiary hospitals. The recommendations proposed herein are from researchers and experts of a high-complexity university hospital in the network of the Sistema Único de Saúde, presenting itself as a strategy that can be followed as a guideline for PBM implementation in other settings.

BACKGROUND: Flexible cavovarus deformity is prevalent and the Coleman block test is frequently used to assess the first ray plantarflexion malpositioning in the overall deformity as well as the flexibility of the hindfoot. The objective was to assess and compare the weightbearing computed tomography (WBCT) 3-dimensional (3D) changes in clinical and bone alignment in flexible cavovarus deformity patients when performing the Coleman block test when compared to normal standing position and to controls. METHODS: Twenty patients (40 feet) with flexible cavovarus deformity and 20 volunteer controls (40 feet) with normal foot alignment underwent WBCT imaging of the foot and ankle. Cavovarus patients were assessed in normal orthostatic and Coleman block test positions. Foot and ankle offset (FAO), hindfoot alignment angle (HAA), talocalcaneal angle (TCA), subtalar vertical angle (SVA) and talonavicular coverage angle (TNCA) and a CT-simulated soft tissue envelope image, WBCT clinical hindfoot alignment angle (WBCT-CHAA), were evaluated by 2 readers. Measurements were compared between cavovarus nonstressed and stressed positions and to controls. P values of .05 or less were considered significant. RESULTS: The intra- and interobserver intraclass correlation coefficient were good or excellent for all WBCT measurements. Cavovarus patients demonstrated significant correction of WBCT-CHAA (9.7 ± 0.4 degrees), FAO (2.6 ± 0.4%), and TNCA (8.8 ± 1.8 degrees) when performing the Coleman block test (all P values <.0001). However, WBCT-CHAA and FAO measurements were still residually deformed and significantly different from controls (P values of .001 and <.0001, respectively). TNCA values corrected to values similar to healthy controls (P = .29). No differences were observed in cavovarus patients during Coleman block test for the coronal measures: HAA, TCA, and SVA measurements. CONCLUSION: In this study, we observed improvement in the overall 3D WBCT alignment (FAO), axial plane adduction deformity (TNCA), as well as CT simulated clinical hindfoot alignment (WBCT-CHAA) in flexible cavovarus deformity patients when performing a Coleman block test. However, we did not find improvement in measures of coronal alignment of the hindfoot, indicating continued varus positioning of the hindfoot in these patients.

PURPOSE: Our objective was to evaluate the syndesmotic and fracture instability using conventional ankle computed tomography (CT) with stress maneuvers. METHODS: A consecutive sample of 123 individuals with an ankle sprain was assessed for eligibility. In total, 33 patients met the inclusion criteria. All patients underwent a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT scan with stress maneuvers (CTSM). The patterns of ligament tears f were classified using West Point grades I, IIA, IIB, III. Mann-Whitney test was used to test the differences in the numerical variables between injured and uninjured syndesmoses. The Spearman correlation tested the strength of the association between the tibial joint surface involved in posterior malleolus fracture and syndesmotic instability. RESULTS: In MRI, two patterns of syndesmotic ligament injury predominated. A completely torn anterior inferior tibiofibular (AITFL) and interosseous tibiofibular ligaments (ITFL) and a completely torn AITFL were combined with a partially torn ITFL. In the neutral phase CTSM and during the stress phase the median difference of the narrowest tibiofibular distance between injured and uninjured syndesmoses was 0.2 mm (P = 0.057) and 2.3 mm (P < 0.0001), respectively. There was no association between the percentage of involvement of the posterior tibial joint surface in the posterior malleolar fracture and syndesmotic instability as measured with CTSM. CONCLUSION: The conventional computed tomography with external rotation and dorsiflexion represents a reproducible and accurate diagnostic option for detecting syndesmosis instability and fracture instability in acute isolated non-displaced posterior malleolar fractures Bartonícek and Rammelt type II. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Prospective study among consecutive patients (Diagnosis); Level of evidence, 2.

RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the perceptions of students and teachers regarding remote teaching modality in comparison with the traditional face-to-face method. METHODS: In this observational, retrospective, comparative, single-center study, questionnaires containing three major assessment domains were sent to two groups: university professors and undergraduate and graduate students. The first domain collected demographic and general data on the platforms used. The second and third domains contained questions that compared the perception of the quality of information offered by the two systems. RESULTS: Between May and September 2020, 162 students and 71 teachers participated in the study. A greater proportion of students demonstrated previous contact with the online method, while professors had presented a greater number of courses. Most participants reported that their expectations regarding the remote teaching method were met (students, 80.3%; teachers, 94.4%). A significant number of students (83.3%) and teachers (88.7%) rated the classes as easier to attend and manage. Despite difficulties, such as concentration retention, most of the participants agree (at least partially) that the format should be maintained. CONCLUSION: The remote teaching methodology, although still incipient in Brazil, has become a reality in light of current health restrictions. Our study demonstrated a high level of overall satisfaction and a high sense of learning from both students and faculty. However, new challenges associated with this system have been identified, such as retention of attention and interference from the external environment. Longitudinal comparative studies that incorporate various aspects of medical education in all cycles are necessary to corroborate the findings of this study. DESIGN: Retrospective comparative study, level III evidence.

RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Diagnosis of Achilles insertional tendinopathies (AIT) is based on pain by tendon palpation. However, there is no consensus or standard with regard to the amount of force to be used during the evaluation. Algometry is a method of measuring the pressure applied in a specific region and can be a method for determining diagnosis values. GOAL: To determine a cutoff value for pain threshold (PT) in the assessment of AIT. DESIGN: This is a prospective case-control study of diagnostic accuracy, to develop a diagnostic criterion. METHODS: Forty asymptomatic individuals and forty patients with AIT, matched by age and sex, were evaluated and submitted to algometry for PT and for visual analog scale (VAS) levels with 3 kgf at the insertion of the calcaneal tendon by two different evaluators. Inter-observer reproducibility was assessed through the interclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Sensitivity and specificity calculations of PT and of VAS were calculated and plotted on a receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS: The lowest ICC found was 0.788. With regard to the diagnosis through PT , the 4.08-kgf value showed the best relation between sensitivity and specificity (92.5% and 92.5%, respectively). Algometry values lower than 4.08 were considered positive for disease. For the diagnosis of AIT through VAS with 3 kgf, the value of 2.98 was estabilished (sensitivity of 92.5% and specificity of 97.5%). CONCLUSION: Algometry was shown to be a simple and reliable method for diagnosing AIT. Values of PT less than 4.08 kgf were found to be predictors of the disease.

Objective The aim of the present study was to quantify the urinary concentration of the C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type-II collagen (CTX-II) biomarker in patients who suffered an isolated ACL injury, and to compare the concentrations found in this population with a control group of patients with no metabolic changes in the knee that could lead to cartilage degeneration. Methods A cross-sectional pilot study was performed in two groups: patients with ACL tears and a control group (each group with 10 male subjects, with an age range between 18 and 35 years, and body mass index below 30 kg/m 2 ). In both groups, urine concentrations of a biomarker related to the degradation of type-II collagen (CTX-II) was measured. For the group with ACL tears, a temporal relationship between the time after the injury and the amount of the biomarker was also examined. Results There were significant differences in the concentrations of urinary CTX-II between the ACL group and the control group ( p = 0.009). No significant relationship was observed between the time after the injury and the quantity of the biomarker. Conclusions Patients with ACL injury had higher concentrations of urinary CTX-II biomarker than those with no ACL injury ( p = 0.009). However, there was no correlation between the concentration of this biomarker and the elapsed time after the injury ( p > 0.05).
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: to assess the efficiency of management by a Social Health Organization (Organização Social de Saúde - OSS) compared with the private sector; to verify if there are savings for the State Health Secretariat (SES) in management contracts for financing the production of a public hospital versus its production values billed by private methods; and to establish if the amounts billed by the Unified Health System (SUS) table would finance the same procedures. METHODS: we compiled and tabulated all procedures performed and the materials and drugs dispensed in the Euryclides Jesus Zerbini Transplant Hospital (HTEJZ), managed by the OSS Associação Paulista Para o Desenvolvimento da Medicina (SPDM), in September, October, and November 2018, according to the Brasíndice® table for drugs, the Simpro® table for materials, the CBHPM® table for medical fees, and tables SIGTAP SUS and SIA SUS. We then compared the average values obtained in the private billing with the costing amount reimbursed by the State Health Secretariat and the billing calculated in the SIA-SUS. RESULTS: the average SUS revenue was R$ 2,774,086.91; the monthly reimbursement by the SES was R$ 13,055,700.00; and the average private revenue was R$ 25,084,440.31. CONCLUSIONS: the management by the OSS SPDM in the Euryclides de Jesus Zerbini Transplant Hospital was more efficient in the financing / production ratio than it would be to a private hospital. The economy of public funds was significant. The current SUS table reimbursement values would not meet the need for funding for an overly complex hospital.

BACKGROUND: There remains a lack of consensus regarding the treatment of Achilles insertional tendinopathy. The condition is typically treated with eccentric exercises despite the absence of satisfactory and sustained results. Shockwave therapy was presented as an alternative, but there is a paucity of literature, with good outcomes, supporting its use. The purpose of the present single-center, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized trial was to determine if the use of shockwave therapy in combination with eccentric exercises improves pain and function in patients with Achilles insertional tendinopathy. METHODS: A total of 119 patients with Achilles insertional tendinopathy were evaluated and enrolled in the study from February 2017 to February 2019. Patients were allocated to 1 of 2 treatment groups, eccentric exercises with extracorporeal shockwave therapy (SWT group) and eccentric exercises with sham shockwave therapy (control group). Three sessions of radial shockwaves (or sham treatment) were performed every 2 weeks and eccentric exercises were undertaken for 3 months. The primary outcome was the Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment-Achilles questionnaire (VISA-A) at 24 weeks. Secondary outcomes included the visual analogue scale, algometry, the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score, and the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey. RESULTS: Both groups showed significant improvement during the study period; however, there were no between-group differences in any of the outcomes (all p >0.05). At the 24-week evaluation, the SWT group exhibited a mean VISA-A of 63.2 (95% confidence interval, 8.0) compared with 62.3 (95% confidence interval, 6.9) in the control group (p = 0.876). There was a higher rate of failure (38.3%) but a lower rate of recurrence (17.0%) in the SWT group compared with the control group (11.5% and 34.6%, respectively; p = 0.002 and p = 0.047). There were no complications reported for either group. CONCLUSIONS: Extracorporeal shockwave therapy does not potentiate the effects of eccentric strengthening in the management of Achilles insertional tendinopathy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level I. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

BACKGROUND: The high prevalence of ankle sprains in the population produces a significant number of patients with lateral instability. Persistence of this condition may lead to the progressive involvement of medial structures, causing a multidirectional rotational instability. METHODS: This is a retrospective study with patients diagnosed with multidirectional instability who underwent ankle arthroscopy with medial (arthroscopic tensioning) and lateral repair (arthroscopic Bröstrom) between January 2018 and January 2020. All patients were evaluated for pain and function according to the visual analog scale (VAS) score and the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) Hindfoot Score at a mean of 14.8 months (5-27 months) in follow-up. A total of 30 ankles (29 patients) were included in the study. RESULTS: The AOFAS score increase from a 49.7 (CI 5.8) to a 91.9 (CI 2.4) mean (P = .001) and was followed by significant improvement in the mean VAS score (6.8, CI 0.37-0.95, CI 0.31). The majority of patients had associated procedures (53.3%), and a low complication rate was found (16.6%). CONCLUSION: Combined medial and lateral arthroscopic repair might be an effective and safe alternative in the treatment of multidirectional instability. Inclusion of the deltoid ligament complex and the low invasiveness of the arthroscopic technique may improve the clinical outcomes of these patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, retrospective case series.

RESUMO Objetivo: os objetivos deste estudo foram verificar a eficiência da gestão por Organização Social de Saúde (OSS) comparada com o setor privado; se há economia para a Secretaria do Estado da Saúde (SES) nos contratos de gestão para custeio da produção de um hospital público frente aos valores de produção faturada pelos métodos privados e estabelecer se os valores faturados pela tabela do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) financiariam os mesmos procedimentos. Métodos: foram compilados e tabelados todos os procedimentos realizados, materiais e medicamentos dispensados no âmbito do Hospital de Transplantes Euryclides de Jesus Zerbini (HTEJZ) gerido pela OSS Associação Paulista para o Desenvolvimento da Medicina (SPDM), nos meses de setembro, outubro e novembro de 2018 de acordo com a tabela do Brasíndice® para medicamentos, Simpro® para materiais, CBHPM® para honorários médicos, Tabela SIGTAP-SUS e SIA-SUS; em seguida foi realizada a comparação entre os valores médios obtidos no faturamento privado, o valor de custeio repassado pela Secretaria do Estado da Saúde e o faturamento apurado no SIA-SUS. Resultados: faturamento médio SUS de R$ 2.774.086,91; repasse mensal SES R$ 13.055.700,00; faturamento privado médio de R$ 25.084.440,31. Conclusões: a gestão pela OSS SPDM no Hospital de Transplantes Euryclides de Jesus Zerbini foi mais eficiente na relação financiamento/produção do que seria para um hospital privado. Foi muito significativa a economia para o erário público. Os atuais valores de remuneração da Tabela SUS a serem repassados não atingiriam a necessidade de custeio para um hospital de alta complexidade.

The conditions affecting the calcaneal tendon remain extremely prevalent in the clinical practice. The search for information about these diseases in national and international scientific databases are commonly hampered in the use of search tools, requiring the use if an eponym in the strategy. Achilles, in reference to the hero of the Greek mythology, is often used by several authors in scientific publications despite the new Nomina Anatomica. OBJECTIVE: This article intends to recover the history behind the use of this term, which heroically resists in the clinical discussions of everyday life in articles and textbooks.

RESUMEN
Calcaneal tendon injuries are extremely common in the general population and in orthopedics routine care. Its increasing incidence, which is motivated by an aging population, improved access to the health care system, increased prescription of continuous-use medication, erratic participation in sports and other factors, has had a direct impact on society. Consolidated treatment options for tendinopathies lack quality scientific support for many modalities. New therapies have emerged to enhance nonsurgical approach outcomes and to reduce the number of patients requiring surgery. Although these operative procedures provide good pain relief and functional outcomes, they are costly and may lead to complications.
RESUMEN
The increasing incidence of calcaneal tendon ruptures has substantially impacted orthopedic care and costs related to its treatment and prevention. Primarily motivated by the increasing of life expectancy, the growing use of tenotoxic drugs and erratic access to physical activity, this injury accounts for considerable morbidity regardless of its outcome. In recent years, the evolution of surgical and rehabilitation techniques gave orthopedists better conditions to decide the most appropriate conduct in acute tendon rupture. Although still frequent due to their high neglect rate, Achilles chronic ruptures currently find simpler and more biological surgical options, being supported by a new specialty-focused paradigm.

Resumo As afecções que acometem o tendão calcâneo são extremamente comuns na população geral e no cotidiano da atenção ortopédica. Sua crescente incidência, motivada pelo envelhecimento da população, pela melhora no acesso à saúde, pelo aumento na utilização de drogas de uso contínuo, pela errática participação esportiva e outros fatores, tem causado impacto direto na sociedade. As tendinopatias, ainda que hoje respaldadas por tratamentos consolidados, carecem de suporte científico de qualidade para muitas das suas recomendações. Novas terapêuticas têm surgido com o objetivo de potencializar o resultado da abordagem não-operatória e diminuir a quantidade de pacientes que necessitam de uma cirurgia. Esses procedimentos operatórios apresentam uma boa resposta álgica e funcional dos pacientes, no entanto não são livres de complicações e dos altos custos que os cercam.

Resumo A crescente incidência de rupturas do tendão calcâneo tem impactado substancialmente o cuidado ortopédico e os custos relacionados ao seu tratamento e prevenção. Motivada principalmente pelo aumento da expectativa de vida, o crescimento do uso de drogas tenotóxicas e o acesso errático à atividade física, essa lesão gera morbidade considerável aos pacientes qualquer seja o desfecho a ser considerado.
