- W3206969634 abstract "Abstract Background Achilles tendon ruptures are the most common tendon injury which affect predominantly middle age males. The yearly incidence is 31/100,000, with a rising incidence due to an increasingly active older generation1. Conservative versus operative management options shows no significant difference in rates of re-rupture or length of rehabilitation2. Delays in imaging have been found to delay definitive treatment and led to multiple attendances in the outpatient clinic. Method A retrospective analysis was performed patients diagnosed with an Achilles tendon rupture from September 2016 to February 2017 throughout the East Kent Trust. Patients were identified via clinical coding of ED attendance. Following implementation of the pathway in October 2018, a second retrospective analysis of patients identified between October 2018 and March 2019 was performed. Patients with re-ruptures or < 16 years old were excluded from the study. Results Following introduction of the pathway, there has been a 100% increase in the number of ultrasound scans performed, with the rupture gap size documented in 50% of these. The time to decision for conservatively managed patients dropped from 8 to 2 days. The number of clinic appointments also dropped from 3 to 2 with the management of patients predominantly in the plaster room. Conclusions The pathway has streamlined the process for patients following their injury. The majority of patients are seen by a senior clinician within 72 hours and a treatment plan clarified. The use of surgical care practitioner led clinics have allowed continuity of care for these patients and swift escalation when required." @default.
