OPEN FRACTURE
Muscle :
Tolerate 4 hrs ischemia (reversible)
> 8 hrs complete irreversible
Nerve :
< 4 hrs : neuropraxic
> 8 hrs : axonotmesis & irreversible changes
VASCULAR LESSION
Poplitea artery
Inguinalis artery
Brachialis artery
Femoralis artery
Diagnosis with
arteriografi atau Dopler,
measure distal to injury
saturation 02 level
TRAUMATIC AMPUTATION
Vascular must be anastomosed before 6 hours
if more, possibility of revascularization is
poor, and there is high risk of toxin release
from amputated part
Finger: tendon component is more than
muscle component more resiliant for
hypoxia
Forearm: muscle component is more than
tendon component more fragile for hypoxia
Amputee preservation
Clean with sterile NaCl
Put into clean plastic bag
Put into another plastic bag containing ice
Never put amputee to direct contact with ice
