A review was recommended of dressing practice in granulating, epithelialising, superficial burn wounds and following post-operative nail avulsion.
Conversely, some patients with plexus avulsions report pain reduction with sensory input to the affected limb.
Three remained in severe heart failure, 3 suffered valve avulsion, and 1 had a persistent severe and increasing gradient.
The direct impact can cause an avulsion fracture where a portion of bone is removed by a muscle.
Avulsion of the biceps femoris tendon, is the complete pulling away of the tendon from the bone.
Powerful pull of the triceps can also cause avulsion fractures.
Avulsion fractures occur where muscles are attached: anterior superior and inferior iliac spines, ischial tuberosities, and ischiopubic rami.
These techniques are inappropriate when a patient has injuries such as fractures, avulsion injuries, severe osteoporosis, open wounds, or has metastatic disease.
