Audit

Investigation of the limping child, our current practice and suggested protocol
Location: West Wales General Hospital
Date Presented: 7/06/06
Role: Primary investigator
Summary: We reviewed the investigation protocol and follow up practice of children admitted
to our unit with an acute atraumatic limp over a one year period. Twenty two children fulfilled
our inclusion criteria of which 14(64%) were males and 8(36%) were females. The average
age was 6 years (range 2-13 years). None of the patients had septic arthritis
None were febrile on admission
Only 1 pt had documented ESR
45% had raised WBC, 33% had raised CRP
2 patients had small effusions (resolved spontaneously)
1 patient had normal MRI. We recommended a protocol(based on current literature on the
subject) which would enable safe discharge after review with follow up arrangements to avoid
unnecessary admission which would result in significant saving of resources.
-
Ankle Fracture fixation, Are we fixing them quick enough?
Location: West Wales General Hospital Carmarthen
Date Presented: 2
March 2006
Role: Primary investigator.
Summary: We determined the average time between admission and internal fixation of ankle
fractures and it’s implication on net in patient stay.34 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria of
having an acute closed fracture of the ankle requiring open reduction and internal fixation
(ORIF). There were 16 unilateral, 10 bimalleolar and 8 trimalleolar fractures.
10 patients underwent surgery on the day of admission,9 patients had surgery within 24
hrs,15 patients had surgery after 24 hrs of admission.
The average in patient stay was 9 days range (1-61 days).
If surgery was undertaken within 24 hrs average in patient stay was 5 days range (1-14
days). If surgery was delayed beyond 24 hrs the average in patient stay was 15 days, range
(3-61days).
Conclusion: Delayed surgery of indicated closed ankle fracture prolongs hospital stay with
profound cost implications. We suggested a fast track protocol a reaudit after 6 months will
close the loop.

Delayed referrals of distal radial fractures in adults
Location: Royal Glamorgan Hospital
Date presented: November 2001
Role: Primary investigator.
We audited delayed referrals of distal radial fractures from A&E over a one month period. We
then suggested guidelines to the A&E SHO’s regarding acceptability criteria following
manipulation of these fractures. We re-audited referrals from A&E and found a 10% decrease
in delayed referrals. We closed the audit loop and altered a change in existing practice

Management experience
Being the rota manager (Top Slot SpR) for junior doctors in the Department of Orthopaedics
at the Princess Alexandra Hospital has improved my skills of delegation, communication, and
conflict resolution. I serve as a medium of communication between the junior medical staff
and the consultants with reference to work related issues.
IT skills
I am aware of the importance of information technology and its application in modern day
medicine and have developed the necessary skills to use PC operating systems. I and am
able to create and use databases in Access and Excel .I am proficient in the use of power
point for creating presentations and I can produce digital images and can manipulate them to
appear in presentations and publications using photo editing software such as Adobe
Photoshop. I have experience in using the Patient Administration System and the Digital Radiology software.
Outside interests
Outside of work I enjoy tennis and I used to be a nationally ranked tennis player at the junior
and sub-junior level in India. I continue to pursue this hobby, sadly not competitively anymore.
Career plans
I plan to provide a one stop orthopaedic service with a focus on primary and revision
lower limb total joint replacement at par with the best in the world.
I would like to utilise my experience in the management of acute trauma and fracture
treatment to set up a trauma service in Mumbai which will provide a multi-disciplinary
approach to the management of trauma as is practised in the UK.
My key commitments are PATIENT SAFETY,RELIABLITY, CLINICAL EXCELLANCE.
