PROSPECTS OF USING PREFABRICATED BUILDINGS FOR MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES

In this research paper, an analysis is given of the types of prefabricated buildings and structures (hereinafter PB), from the position of their possible application for a wide range of medical technologies, design features and advantages, and deficiencies in buildings and structures. The article has an overview and research character. The main goal is to determine the most suitable variant of PB for a wide range of medical technologies. The following issues are considered in the study: the features of using such buildings for a wide range of medical technologies; advantages and disadvantages of each type in terms of design features; the definition of the most suitable type for the construction of medical facilities. Collection of information and analysis leads to the construction of a morphological scheme, which in an accessible form will explain all the conclusions and sum up the results of the research. This will allow using the material for further research in the field of PB, as well as serve as a basis for the application of certain types of buildings for individual medical technologies.This article is based on our own research, experience and experience of individual firms (both in Russia and abroad), as well as the work of other authors in the field of PB application

Invasive treatments for Osgood-Schlatter disease (systematic literature review)

Introduction Osgood-Schlatter disease is manifested by pain, swelling and the appearance of a painful "bump" in the area of the tibial tuberosity. For 90 % of patients, conservative treatment is effective. It relieves painful symptoms but if they persist after the closure of the growth plate, surgical treatment is recommended. The study of literature reviews on invasive methods of treatment of the Osgood-Schlatter disease revealed only a few works on various methods of treatment with a description of clinical cases. Purpose Review of current methods of invasive treatment of Osgood-Schlatter disease, comparison of their effectiveness from the point of current evidence-based requirements. Materials and methods The electronic databases eLibrary, PubMed and Scopus were used for literature search. Results This literature review presents a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of various surgical methods of treatment, namely, the use of surgical and puncture methods. The main advantages of the methods were discussed, as well as their disadvantages caused by postoperative complications or difficulties resulting from the techniques for their implementation. Conservative treatment, which is resorted to in the majority of cases, does not relieve pain in the knee joint, and discomfort at sport activities persists. Minimally invasive techniques, which were used by a number of authors whose works are described in this review, are at a low level in the hierarchy of evidence, because there no large comparative studies. Conclusions Due to the rarity of surgical treatment of this pathology, it makes sense to create a register of patients with Osgood-Schlatter disease for the purpose of a remote unified assessment of treatment results in order to identify the most appropriate method of surgical intervention
