Validity of humerus fracture classification in the Swedish fracture register
BACKGROUND The ability to correctly classify fractures is of importance for choosing the appropriate treatment and for providing appropriate data for research and quality registers. In the Swedish Fracture Register (SFR) fractures of all types are registered by the attending physician, often a junior doctor. For the majority of fractures, a modified AO/OTA classification is used. This study aim...
متن کاملThe interobserver and intraobserver reliability of the Fernandez classification of distal radius fracture
Abstract Background: With increasing knowledge concerning fractures of the distal radius, different classifications have been proposed. Reliability of most of these classifications has been assessed. The Fernandez classification has never been assessed for intraobserver and interobserver reliability, although this classification is commonly used. Methods: Five observers including one attending...
متن کاملSubstantial accuracy of fracture classification in the Swedish Fracture Register: Evaluation of AO/OTA-classification in 152 ankle fractures.
INTRODUCTION Since 2011 the Swedish Fracture Register (SFR) has collected information on fracture epidemiology, treatment and outcome. More than 112 000 fractures, including 11 600 ankle fractures, have been registered so far. The accuracy of the classification is crucial when using the register in future research and quality improvement of care. In this study we examine the degree of accuracy ...
متن کاملClassification of fracture and non-fracture groups by analysis of coherent X-ray scatter
Osteoporotic fractures present a significant social and economic burden, which is set to rise commensurately with the aging population. Greater understanding of the physicochemical differences between osteoporotic and normal conditions will facilitate the development of diagnostic technologies with increased performance and treatments with increased efficacy. Using coherent X-ray scattering we ...
متن کاملAvulsion Fracture of the Calcaneal Tuberosity: Classification and Its Characteristics
BACKGROUND Not much is known regarding avulsion fractures of the calcaneal tuberosity. We propose a modified classification scheme that presents the four types of calcaneal avulsion fracture as described by surgical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, and evaluation of their specific features. METHODS Out of 764 cases of calcaneal fractures, we examined 20 cases (2.6%) that involve...
