Abstract
|
|
|
Generation Z of this millennial period has a very active lifestyle. Generation Z is demographic cohort with date of birth between mid-1990s to late 2010. In recent times men and women are very active and they balance their work and recreation. They have focus in their occupation and same way they have passion towards biking, diving and sports. We present a case of software engineer who has sustained an injury while pursuing his passion of bike driving on a weekend holiday. He sustained a crush injury to fingers of dominant right-hand index and middle finger. We had a comprehensive preoperative and postoperative plan and executed the plan well so that he could go back to his occupation of software engineer where he has to use his fingers over keyboard and mouse so that he can earn his livelihood. Treating an injury has to include patient¡¯s occupation, his passion,his needs and demands. Crux of any management must include patient demands rather than surgeon¡¯s passion of doing a fancy procedure.
