    • Complications after intramedullary nailing of femoral fractures in a low-income country. A prospective study of follow-up, HIV infection, and microbial infection rates after IM nailing of 141 femoral fractures at a central hospital in Malawi 

      Young, Sven; Banza, Leonard N.; Hallan, Geir; Beniyasi, Fletcher; Manda, Kumbukani G.; Munthali, Boston S.; Dybvik, Eva Hansen; Engesæter, Lars B.; Havelin, Leif Ivar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-10)
      Background: Some surgeons believe that internal fixation of fractures carries too high a risk of infection in low-income countries (LICs) to merit its use there. However, there have been too few studies from LICs with ...
    • Low infection rates after 34,361 intramedullary nail operations in 55 low- and middle-income countries. Validation of the Surgical Implant Generation Network (SIGN) Online Surgical Database 

      Young, Sven; Lie, Stein Atle; Hallan, Geir; Zirkle, Lewis G.; Engesæter, Lars B.; Havelin, Leif Ivar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-12)
      Background: The Surgical Implant Generation Network (SIGN) supplies intramedullary (IM) nails for the treatment of long bone fractures free of charge to hospitals in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Most operations ...
    • Orthopaedic Trauma Surgery in Low-Income Countries. Follow-up, Infections and HIV 

      Young, Sven (Doctoral thesis, 2014-01-31)
      This thesis is based on three published papers about complications after intramedullary (IM) nailing of fractures of the long bones in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The first two studies were register studies ...
    • Outcome at 1 year in patients with femoral shaft fractures treated with intramedullary nailing or skeletal traction in a low-income country: a prospective observational study of 187 patients in Malawi 

      Chokotho, Linda; Wu, Hao-Hua; Shearer, David; Lau, Brian C.; Mkandawire, Nyengo; Gjertsen, Jan Erik; Hallan, Geir; Young, Sven (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Background and purpose — Intramedullary nailing (IMN) is underutilized in low-income countries (LICs) where skeletal traction (ST) remains the standard of care for femoral shaft fractures. This prospective study compared ...
    • Risk Factors for Infection after 46,113 Intramedullary Nail Operations in Low- and Middle-income Countries 

      Young, Sven; Lie, Stein Atle; Hallan, Geir; Zirkle, Lewis G.; Engesæter, Lars B.; Havelin, Leif Ivar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-02)
      Background: The fields of surgery and trauma care have largely been neglected in the global health discussion. As a result the idea that surgery is not safe or cost effective in resource-limited settings has gone unchallenged. ...
    • Transportation barriers to access health care for surgical conditions in Malawi: a cross sectional nationwide household survey 

      Varela, Carlos Gomes; Young, Sven; Mkandawire, Nyengo; Groen, Reinou S.; Ngoie, Leonard Banza; Viste, Asgaut (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-05)
      Background: It is estimated that nearly five billion people worldwide do not have access to safe surgery. This access gap disproportionately affects low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). One of the barriers to healthcare ...
