gardening frequency. Future studies should augment the intervention to include explicit efforts to reduce barriers to long term engagement and extend intervention reach.This paper provides a framework for understanding why, when and how to adapt mindfulness-based programs (MBPs) to specific populations and contexts, based on research that developed and adapted multiple MBPs. In doing so, we hope to support teachers, researchers and innovators who are considering adapting an MBP to ensure that changes made are necessary, acceptable, effective, cost-effective, and implementable. Specific questions for reflection are provided such as (1) Why is an adaptation needed? (2) Does the theoretical premise underpinning mainstream MBPs extend to the population you are considering? (3) Do the benefits of the proposed adaptation outweigh the time and costs involved to all in research and implementation? (4) Is there already an evidenced-based approach to address this issue in the population or context? Fundamental knowledge that is important for the adaptation team to have includes the following (1) essential ingredients of MBPs, (2) etiology of the target health outcome, (3) existing interventions that work for the health outcome, population, and context, (4) delivery systems and settings, and (5) culture, values, and communication patterns of the target population. A series of steps to follow for adaptations is provided, as are case examples. Adapting MBPs happens not only by researchers, but also by MBP teachers and developers, who endeavor to best serve the populations and contexts they work within. We hope that these recommendations for best practice provide a practical framework for skilfully understanding why, when, and how to adapt MBPs; and that this careful approach to adaptation maximizes MBP safety and efficacy.Background  There is an increasing trend for most surgeons to choose open reduction and internal fixation of simultaneous distal radius and scaphoid fractures; however, it is not clear if there is any evidence to support this. Case Description  The purpose of this systematic review was to investigate the evidence for management of simultaneous distal radius and scaphoid fractures. Literature Review  We performed searches of the EMBASE and MEDLINE databases (CRD42020167403). We included a total of 20 studies, involving 178 patients with 182 simultaneous fractures of the distal radius and scaphoid. The distal radius fractures were mostly intra-articular (112/182). The scaphoid fractures were mostly undisplaced (120/148) and at the scaphoid waist (152/178). All distal radius fractures went on to unite, and just 2 of 182 scaphoid fractures went on to nonunion. All included studies were retrospective case series, and therefore all were found to have a critical risk of bias due to confounding. The union rate for both the distal radius and scaphoid fractures is high with both operative and nonoperative treatments. Clinical Relevance  Although there are no comparative studies to evaluate the most effective treatment, there is evidence to support operative management. Level of Evidence  This is a Level IV, systematic review study.Introduction  Complex distal radius fractures often involve a fragment of the volar-ulnar articular surface and the radial styloid. The volar ulnar corner of the distal radius is an important constraint to volar translation of the carpus and thus requires stable fixation to prevent wrist displacement. The traditional volar Henry approach often requires undue tension on the median nerve while retracting for access to the ulnar aspect of the radius. To protect the median nerve from iatrogenic injury and to improve exposure of the surgical site, we propose a single incision, dual window approach to the distal radius for complex bi-columnar fractures. Methods  This technique combines the trans-Flexor Carpi Radialis (FCR) approach with a subcutaneous dissection to the ulnar aspect of the wrist. This window utilizes the interval between the ulnar neurovascular bundle and the carpal tunnel contents. Results  This technique allows the surgeon to work through either window and thus visualize and directly fixate the various fracture fragments. We have treated complex articular distal radius fractures associated with ulnar communition with this novel technique and it has provided direct reduction with improved fragment access. The surgical technique, a case presentation and results are detailed in this report. Conclusion  This case report has demonstrated that complex bi-columnar fractures of the distal radius can be effectively approached and fixated with a single incision dual window approach.Background  Subluxation of the extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU) tendon can be a challenging problem to the surgeon, with no options described for failure following autologous reconstruction. It is our intention to provide guidance on technique by describing our experience in a 20-year-old male with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Case Description  The patient presented with pain and snapping of the ECU tendon, and failed both immobilization and ECU reconstruction with autologous extensor retinaculum. A gracilis tendon allograft was used to reconstruct the ECU sheath, in addition to ulnar groove deepening. At 1-year follow-up, the patient had no pain and the ECU was stable without recurrent subluxation. Literature Review  To the authors' knowledge, the use of tendon allograft for stabilization of recurrent ECU subluxation following surgical repair or reconstruction has not been previously described in the medical literature. Clinical Relevance  Utilization of tendon allograft is a viable technique to stabilize the ECU tendon while minimizing the risk in relying on compromised autologous tissue. This report represents the first account of successful reconstruction following failed autologous reconstruction.Background  The classic treatment for acute Essex-Lopresti syndrome is closed reduction percutaneous pinning (CRPP) of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). This work aimed to verify whether it was possible to add a transfer of the brachioradialis tendon to the pinning. Case Description  The patient was a 39-year-old right-handed man, climbing instructor, who sustained the Mason II fracture and disjunction of the DRUJ. A transfer of the brachioradialis tendon severed from its muscle attach that was made through a bone tunnel passing through the radius and the neck of the ulna. The clinical and radiological result at the 6-month follow-up was satisfactory. Literature Review and Clinical Relevance  Our results in a single case showed that the brachioradialis tendon transfer was useful in acute Essex-Lopresti syndrome.Background  Multiple partial wrist fusions exist for the management of arthritic disease. Limited information is available on their effect on wrist range of motion in the dart-throwing direction of wrist motion, even though it is used in most activities of daily living. Purpose  The purpose of this study was to measure the retained motion for different orientations of dart-throwing motion for seven different partial wrist fusions and proximal row carpectomy (PRC). Methods  Eight fresh frozen right cadavers were tested with the wrist intact and followed simulated fusions. Fusions were performed using an external fixation technique and included scaphocapitate, scapholunate (SL), capitolunate, radiolunate, radioscapholunate, scaphotrapeziotrapezoid, 4 corner fusion, and PRC. Results  In the intact wrist, the average arc of wrist motion with the wrist oriented at 20 degrees away from the flexion-extension axis was significantly larger than at any other orientation of motion. All partial wrist fusions and the PRC had significantly smaller average dart-throw arc of motion compared with intact at an orientation 20 and 25 degrees away from flexion-extension. The SL fusion provided a significantly larger arc of motion than most of the other fusions at most orientations. Conclusion/Clinical Relevance  This study provides a comprehensive compilation of the range of motion in a functional plane, "the dart-throw motion," for limited wrist fusions and PRC. These data provide the clinician with important information that can be used to educate patients regarding expectations after surgery.Background  The diagnosis and treatment of scapholunate interosseous ligament (SLIL) pathology is debated and notably variable. This study assessed the influence of diagnostic arthroscopy on treatment recommendations and the interobserver reliability of the arthroscopic classification of SLIL pathology. Methods  The influence of diagnostic arthroscopy on treatment recommendations and the reliability of the arthroscopic classification of SLIL pathology were tested in a survey-based experiment. Seventy-seven surgeons evaluated 16 scenarios of people with wrist pain with variation in symptoms, scaphoid shift, time of symptom onset, and MRI appearance of the SLIL. Participants were randomized to view or not to view diagnostic wrist arthroscopy. Factors associated with recommendation for repair, capsulodesis, or tenodesis were analyzed. Results  Viewing arthroscopic videos was associated with both offering surgery and a more reconstructive option. Other factors independently associated with recommendation for surgery included greater pain intensity and activity intolerance, women surgeons, an asymmetric scaphoid shift, and a recent onset of symptoms. The interobserver reliability of SLIL classification was slight. Conclusions  Diagnostic arthroscopy leads to more surgery, and more invasive surgery, in spite of unreliable assessment of pathology. Clinical Relevance  This points to the need to measure the potential benefits and harms of diagnostic wrist arthroscopy among people with wrist pain and no clear diagnosis on interview, examination, and radiographs. Level of Evidence  Not applicable.Background  Proximal row carpectomy (PRC) and four-corner arthrodesis (4-CA) represent motion-sparing procedures for addressing degenerative wrist pathologies. While both procedures demonstrate comparable functional outcomes, postoperative pain presents a surgical challenge that often necessitates the use of opioids. Objectives The aim of this study was to (1) compare opioid prescribing patterns surrounding PRC and 4-CA, (2) identify risk factors predisposing patients to increased perioperative and prolonged postoperative opioids, and (3) examine the association between opioids and perioperative health care utilization. Patients and Methods  PearlDiver Patients Records Database was used to retrospectively identify patients undergoing primary PRC and 4-CA between 2010 and 2018. Patient demographics, comorbidities, prescription drug usage, and perioperative health care utilization were evaluated. Perioperative opioid prescriptions and post-operative opioid prescriptions were recorded. Logistic regression analysis evaluated the association of patient risk factors. Results  There was no significant difference in perioperative (PRC [odds ratio OR 0.84, p  = 0.788]; 4-CA [OR 0.75, p  = 0.658]) or prolonged postoperative opioid prescriptions (PRC [OR 0.95, p  = 0.927]; 4-CA [OR 0.99, p  = 0.990]) between PRC and 4-CA. Chronic back pain and use of benzodiazepines or anticonvulsants were associated with increased risks of prolonged postoperative opioids. Prolonged postoperative opioids presented increased risks of emergency department visits (OR 2.09, p  = 0.019) and hospital readmissions (OR 10.2, p  = 0.003). Conclusion  No significant differences exist in the prescription of opioids for PRC versus 4-CA. Both procedures have high amounts of prolonged postoperative opioid use, which is associated with increased risks of emergency department visits and hospital readmissions. Level of Evidence  This is a level III, retrospective comparative study.
