Abstract
one is a dense, mineral-rich tissue with organic components. Implants such as plates and nails are used to reconstruct fractures. Various types of drills are used in orthopedic surgery, ranging from pneumatic and battery-operated to electric devices, each of which has its own set of benefits and drawbacks.
Standard care is generally achievable through orthopedic battery-operated and pneumatic drills, which are costly and have high maintenance costs. So, orthopedic surgeons frequently employ alternatives such as the Bosch battery drill, and a corded electric drill is generally used in developing nations. These drills are inexpensive, but they cannot be used for reaming. Furthermore, some models of these drills have a constant speed, making them difficult to be utilized for reaming. We offered modifications to this type of drill to control its speed, so it can be used for reaming. There is abundant evidence dismissing misconceptions such as electric drills’ overheating and subsequently leading to bone thermal necrosis. There are multiple scientifically documented methods to effectively sterilize an electric drill. Due to its affordability and ease of maintenance, our innovations, such as speed control and drill cannulation, enable us to adopt this device for most traumatic surgeries, particularly in developing nations.

ormance evaluation. The data were analyzed using the t-test and analysis of variance in SPSS software (version 22).
Results: All the participants were female health caregivers. The results showed that there was notanysignificantdifferencebetweenthestudy dimensions with the participants’fieldofstudy (P = 0.798;F = 0.226), academic degree (P value =0.957; t = 0.003), age (P = 0.419; F = 0.955), and work experience (P-value = 0.537; F = 0.627). The health caregiversofthe eastern Ahvaz health center of Ahvaz scored 767.35 out of the total 1,000, indicating that their performance was generally at an acceptable level.
Conclusions: The findings of this study can assist the managers and experts of the health sector in evaluating the performance of health caregivers in their self-care program. For the enhancement of the performance of health caregivers, not only health ambassadors should be identified and trained, but also the dimension of organizational self-care should be reinforced.
