| Abstract | Background The application of lower limb traction during hip arthroscopy and femur fractures osteosynthesis is commonplace in orthopaedic surgeries. Traditional methods utilize a perineal post on a traction table, leading to soft tissue damage and nerve neuropraxia. A postless technique, using high-friction pads, has been considered as a potential damage-free alternative. However, whether these pads sufficiently prevent patient displacement remains unknown. Thus, this study systematically assesses the efficacy of commercial high-friction pads (PinkPad and CarePad) in restraining subject displacement, for progressively increasing traction loads and different Trendelenburg angles. Methods Three healthy male subjects were recruited and tested in supine and Trendelenburg positions (5° and 10°), using a customized boot-pulley system. Ten load disks (5 kg) were dropped at 15s intervals, increasing gradually the traction load up to 50 kg. Pelvis displacement along the traction direction was measured with a motion capture system. The displacement at 50 kg of traction load was analyzed and compared across various pads and bed inclinations. Response to varying traction loads was statistically assessed with a quadratic function model. Results Pelvis displacement at 50 kg traction load was below 60 mm for all conditions. Comparing PinkPad and CarePad, no significant differences in displacement were observed. Finally, similar displacements were observed for the supine and Trendelenburg positions. Conclusions Both PinkPad and CarePad exhibited nearly linear behavior under increasing traction loads, limiting displacement to 60 mm at most for 50 kg loads. Contrary to expectations, placing subjects in the Trendelenburg position did not increase adhesion. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
