Economic Analysis of Bisphosphonate Use after Distal Radius Fracture for Prevention of Hip Fracture
Background: Osteoporosis is a common condition among the elderly population, and is associated with an increased risk of fracture. One of the most common fragility fractures involve the distal radius, and are associated with risk of subsequent fragility fracture. Early treatment with bisphosphonates has been suggested to decrease the population hip fracture burden. However, there have been no p...
متن کاملOutcome evaluation in patients with distal radius fracture.
INTRODUCTION There are not enough scientific papers on the outcome of distal radius fractures evaluated by the patients themselves. There is disagreement over the degree of correlation between the radiological and functional outcome and the disability of the patients. AIM To analyse the correlation between the patient-rated outcome (disability) and radiological parameters of distal radius fra...
متن کاملFocus On Distal radius fracture: current concepts and management
Up until a few decades ago, distal radius fractures were often casually regarded as ‘Colles’ fractures’. The treatment was mainly manipulation and casting, since the generally accepted concept proposed by Abraham Colles in 18141, was that although these fractures would heal with deformity, the functional deficit would be acceptable. With better understanding of the various fracture types, class...
متن کاملRelationship between Anxiety, Depression, and Personality Type and the Incidence of Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy in Patients with Distal Radius Fracture
Background: There is inconsistent information about the role of psychological factors in the incidence of reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) in patients with distal radius fractures. The present study was thus undertaken to evaluate the relationship between some of these factors and the occurrence of reflex sympathetic dystrophy in patients with distal radius fracture. Methods: One hundred and ...
متن کاملTriplane fracture of the distal radius
We report the case of a 14-year-old boy who sustained a displaced triplane fracture of the distal radius. This was treated with closed reduction and application of a cast with good clinical and radiological results. We discuss (for the first time) the reasons for the rarity of this fracture at the distal radius compared to the distal tibia.
