Net-centric warfare requires information superiority to enable decision superiority, culminating in insurmountable combat power against our enemies on the battlefield. Information superiority must be attained and retained for success in today's joint/coalition battlespace. To accomplish this goal, our combat networks must reliably, expediently and completely deliver over a wide range of mobile and fixed assets. Furthermore, each asset must be given special consideration for the sensitivity, priority and volume of information required by the mission. Evolving a grand design of the enabling network will require a flexible evaluation platform to try and select the right combination of network strategies and protocols in the realms of topology control and routing. This research will result in a toolkit for ns2 that will enable rapid interfacing and evaluation of new networking algorithms and/or protocols. The toolkit will be the springboard for development of an optimal, multi-dimensional and flexible network for linking combat entities in the battlespace.
The ultimate how-to resource on shoulder surgery from internationally renowned experts Shoulder problems related to degenerative conditions, sports injuries, or trauma comprise a significant percentage of orthopaedic surgery practice. Shoulder Surgery: Tricks of the Trade reflects collective expertise from Joshua Dines, David Dines and Lawrence Gulotta, renowned orthopaedic surgeons at the prestigious Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, and an impressive cadre of contributors. The unique resource features practical advice from recognized experts, presenting surgical essentials in an easy-to-learn and reproducible manner. Seventy-three chapters present key aspects of shoulder surgery procedures - from subacromial decompression and acromioplasty - to pectoralis major repair. Each succinct chapter includes step-by-step procedural guidance, indications, management of complications, and other invaluable pearls, tips, and tricks of the trade. Repair and reconstructive approaches for calcific tendinitis; rotator cuff, SLAP, labral, and glenohumeral ligament injuries; osteoarthritis; and more Shoulder replacement procedures including partial humeral head, stemless anatomic, and the use of an augmented polyethylene glenoid component for posterior glenoid wear A full continuum of arthroplasty topics, from basics such as patient positioning and retractory placement - to state-of-the-art techniques to resolve complications and failed surgeries High quality surgical videos detail the latest arthroscopic approaches, such as patch augmentation of rotator cuff repair and fracture fixation This is the most user-friendly orthopaedic shoulder surgery guide available today and a must-have quick reference for all orthopaedic residents, fellows, and surgeons who treat patients with shoulder conditions. This book includes complimentary access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.
The definitive book on reverse shoulder arthroplasty from leading orthopaedic shoulder surgeons This masterful book from top experts provides clinical insights on reverse shoulder arthroplasty gleaned from hands-on refinement of shoulder replacement techniques. Years of significant biomechanical and clinical research yielded invaluable knowledge that led to important improvements in functional outcome and implant durability. Among these refinements were stronger polyethylene derivatives, better ingrowth technology, and improved connection devices. As the durability and longevity of implant technology increased, younger active patients became suitable candidates for this procedure. In fact, RSA has played a pivotal role in making shoulder arthroplasty the fastest growing implant technology. In the first two sections, the authors take the reader through the history and evolution of RSA, followed by step-by-step surgical techniques for specific injuries and conditions. The next three sections discuss past and recent outcomes, complications, and rehabilitation. The last section covers special considerations including patient specific instrumentation, convertible humeral and glenoid components, and the future potential of stemless humeral technology. Key Features The latest trends in patient-specific components, guide systems, and instrument design The use of RSA for rotator cuff repair, shoulder arthritis, and acute and complex fractures In-depth discussion of techniques to improve deltoid function, avoid impingement, and increase implant longevity Clinical pearls on how to recognize and handle complications that occur: instability, infection, scapular notching, component loosening, glenoid and humeral bone loss, and RSA failure High quality videos and 300 superb illustrations further delineate techniques This book is a practical resource that enables learning complex procedures, putting them into practice, and handling complications should they arise. It is an essential tool for all orthopaedic surgeons who treat shoulder conditions.
