Evaluation of a novel functional orthotics device for managing proximal humerus fractures

نویسندگان

چکیده

This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of an orthotic device in treating proximal humerus fractures. The following research methods were used Orthosis user group compare non-orthotic terms PHFs management. Physical function daily activities and recovery assessed using DASH, SPADI, SST, Muscular Strength, CONSTANT scores, radiological assessment, as well questionnaire AND mathematically (statistical data processing). Based on normality results clinical outcomes, a statistically significant difference between two groups was illustrate, orthosis indicating minimum level inability, pain severity lack functional skills execute specific activities, had higher shoulder activity muscle strength recovered normal level, more effective preserving promoting arm function, allowing for better mobility. Bone union that allowed fracture heal while providing sufficient support stability. Furthermore, satisfaction survey found patients fell protected comfortable with new orthosis.

Evaluation and Management of Proximal Humerus Fractures

Proximal humerus fractures are common injuries, especially among older osteoporotic women. Restoration of function requires a thorough understanding of the neurovascular, musculotendinous, and bony anatomy. This paper addresses the relevant anatomy and highlights various management options, including indication for arthroplasty. In the vast majority of cases, proximal humerus fractures may be t...

Proximal humerus fractures.

Proximal humerus fractures are among the most common fractures associated with osteoporosis. With an aging population, incidence of these fractures will only increase. The proximal humerus not only forms the lateral portion of the shoulder articulation but also has significant associations with musculoskeletal and neurovascular structures. As a result, fractures of the proximal humerus can sign...

The Neer Classification for Proximal Humerus Fractures

Proximal humerus fractures are the third most common fracture type in individuals older than 65 years, after distal radius and proximal femur fractures [8]. In 1970, Charles Neer described his four-segment classification system [18]. He believed the existing classifications were inadequate for research purposes, as they did not differentiate between injuries of varied severity nor did they grou...

Locking plate fixation for proximal humerus fractures.

Locking plates are increasingly used to surgically treat proximal humerus fractures. Knowledge of the bone quality of the proximal humerus is important. Studies have shown the medial and dorsal aspects of the proximal humeral head to have the highest bone strength, and this should be exploited by fixation techniques, particularly in elderly patients with osteoporosis. The goals of surgery for p...
