Article Abstract

This clinical report provides a complete digital workflow for the rehabilitation of a 17-year-old male patient who had been diagnosed with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. A maxillary tooth-supported overdenture was used with a mandibular computer-aided design and a computer-aided manufacturing telescopic denture with occlusal modifications. This digital workflow significantly reduced chairside time and enhanced the precision of the fit.

Purpose: To present a novel digital workflow (the Columbus Digital Bridge Protocol) for immediately loaded full-arch rehabilitations, integrating digital technologies throughout diagnostic, surgical and prosthetic phases, with a focus on the application of intraoral photogrammetry scanning.

Materials And Methods: The workflow presented in this article, successfully implemented in 14 patients, includes standardised clinical steps: digital diagnostic planning through matching of facial scans and CBCT data, surgical placement of four implants following tooth extraction, immediate post-surgical intraoral photogrammetry scanning using a three-step procedure (i.e.

Purpose: This study investigated how different data collection methods affect final restoration design and dynamic occlusal morphology.

Materials And Methods: Digital systems allow intraoral recording of functional occlusal paths through the digitally recorded functionally generated pathway (DRFGP) technique, using intraoral scanners and optical jaw tracking. Two substudies were conducted.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of integrating digital shadow technology with Lean Six Sigma methodology on intra-laboratory turnaround time (TAT) in a high-volume clinical laboratory, and to demonstrate how digital shadow architectures can enhance process visibility and drive sustainable operational improvements.

Methods: A retrospective, two-phase study was conducted in a tertiary cancer hospital from January to December 2024. Digital shadow technology was implemented by leveraging real-time, time-stamped data from the laboratory information system (LIS) to map specimen workflow milestones.

Development and Application of the WFS-175: A Novel Multidimensional Score for Wrist Function.

J Hand Surg Glob Online

Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Military Hospital 175, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Purpose: We present a novel protocol for wrist function assessment that integrates both objective factors (range of motion and grip strength) and subjective domains (pain, motor function, and quality of life) into the composite Wrist Function Score - 175 (WFS-175) score.

Methods: The protocol consists of three main steps: (1) data collection, which involves measuring the wrist range of motion in six directions using a goniometer and grip strength, including maximum strength, endurance, and recovery, using a Jamar dynamometer, alongside concurrent subjective assessment with a standardized questionnaire; (2) standardization of all data onto a unified scoring scale, applying a linear formula to calculate the total WFS-175 score (maximum 175 points), with the following components: range of motion (30 points), grip strength (40 points), pain (25 points), motor function (40 points), and quality of life (40 points); and (3) input of results into the AppSheet/Google Sheets system, which provides automated calculation, storage, reporting, and graphical visualization for longitudinal tracking of functional recovery.

Results: This protocol yields a standardized assessment form that enables precise calculation of the WFS-175 score.
