does anyone know what a k wire fixation is,im having one in my hand next week?

A k-wire fixation is short for "Kirschman" wire fixation. A wire is inserted into the injured or surgical area to hold the bone/joint in proper position for effective function and healing. The wire is usually removed in 6 to 8 weeks.

don't worry it is fine mine has a bend it happens to  a lot of guys.  The last thing you want is a knife down there trying to fix things

Razor wire, proper fencing and support for said razor wire, very heavy gloves (try grease gloves like used in fast food places) or just the heavyist gloves possible, a stapler to attach whatever, or wire or whatever your setting up. And be very god damn careful.

This sounds like a safer procedure than putting a foreign object in your body...hmmm...

Good Morning!  Saw this one and had to try my hand.  If the "knob" is not screwing down all the way?  and there is thread damage to the parts?  That is called cross-threading.  Some also refer to this as "galling".  In some situations?  the thread "pitch" of one part could differ from the other causing the problem as well.  Hope this helps in some small way!  Hyway.

lol... I used to be fascinated by that... When I was younger, I would cover my hands with glue and just take it off... hey, it's better than eating the glue!

Ok so before I was an RN I was a RDA for 14 years in an orthodontists office. So this is you anwer, your teeth must get loose or they cannot be moved into the new position. The wires streatch the periodontal ligaments (the tiny muscle that hold the teeth into the socket) also a small amount of bone is resorbed around the root of the tooth. When the orthodontist has your teeth in position they will be held in place with a heavy arch wire that will support them. The bone will be regrown around the root of the tooth and the ligaments will "learn" the new position. When you have your braces removed you will need to wear retainers like a splint for a broken arm. If you do as you are told and follow instructions all will be well. Have faith and smile!\nJulia, RN

Use the right hand rule, also known as the rule of thumb. If you have a wire (insulated!) with a current flowing through it, grab the wire in your right hand, with your thumb pointing in the direction that the current is flowing. Your fingers will curl around the wire in the direction of the magnetic field.\n\nIf the current alternates (periodically reverse direction) then the magnetic field also alternates. Envision it as a cylindrical zone that has the wire down its axis, and that the cylinder expands and contracts as the current of electrons increases or decreases. \n\nNow, suppose we wrap our wire around a coil form to make a coil. There is also a right hand rule, or rule of thumb, for coils. If you hold the coil (again, use insulated wire!) with your fingers wrapped around it pointing in the direction that the electron current flows, your thumb will point in the direction of the north pole of the coil.\n\nHow does that work? Remember, we are imagining the magnetic field as a cylindrical region around the wire. But the surface of the cylinder is rotating. (We'll stick with current in only one direction for the time being. It's easier to follow.) So think of the flow of the magnetic field as rotating around the wire. \n\nNow, if we wrap the wire into a coil, the rotation of the segements of the magnetic field add up in the same direction. They are working together. This is why the field is stronger inside the coil.\n\nWe should also think of the magnetic field as composed of individual lines of force that repel one another. That is why, when they exit one end of the coil and return to the other, they spread out in space. \n\nWe can see this if we hold a magnet under a sheet of paper or aluminum foil and sprinkle iron filings on top. They cluster most around the poles where the field lines are concentrated-- the field is strongest-- and more thinly around the outside of the magnet, where the field lines spread out, because the field is weaker there. This holds true for any magnet, not just electromagnets.\n\nI hope this is clear enough to help. It is a little tough trying to understand things we can't see.\n\n19 NOV 06, 1816 hrs, GMT.

As a teenager ( a couple of years ago! ) I smashed my finger in the car door.  It bled terribly.  My uncle took a sterilized knife and bore a small hole into the nail to relieve the pressure.  It remained horribly purple for weeks and the nail came off.  Another nail replaced it, although it did take a while.

Its like an hook where u still have to do the fixing......that is why the inverted hook.

you could take a straw and heat to just before the melting point where it starts to get soft. you could also use a small gauge (meaning the wire is thick) and bend that. Then attach the tube worm to that so it looks like some of it is sticking out.

From what I have found (which wasn't much) it seems to be a surgical procedure.  I will add the sites I have looked at but the are very technical and aimed at surgeons.\nI hope they will be of some help to you.

Look it up on Mayo clinc.  Best site.

If I remember correctly off the top of my head, you can take a lemon and poke a copper wire in one end, and a steel wire in the other end....
