Orthopedic and Trauma Services
Deals with the musculoskeletal system—bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Orthopedic care treats fractures, joint replacements (e.g., hip/knee), arthritis, spine issues, sports injuries, and deformities. Trauma services handle emergency injuries from accidents (e.g., road traffic crashes, falls), including fracture fixation, wound management, and emergency stabilization—very relevant in Tanzania where trauma from accidents is common.
