“…In addition, like the Gustilo-Anderson classification system, 2 other groups have criticized the OTA-OFC as only exhibiting moderate interobserver grading agreement, particularly among junior surgeons. 3,4 It also remains unclear which OTA-OFC categories overlap with the Gustilo-Anderson classification or add unique value for clinical decision making.…”

OBJECTIVES: To characterize the Orthopaedic Trauma Association Open Fracture Classification (OTA-OFC) and Gustilo-Anderson classification of open extremity fractures and determine if there is meaningful alignment between these grading systems. METHODS: Design : Retrospective case series. Setting : Level I academic trauma center. Patient Selection Criteria : Adult patients with at least one operatively treated open extremity fracture and surgeon-assigned OTA-OFC and Gustilo-Anderson classification. Outcome Measures and Comparisons : Frequency, distribution, and association measures of OTA-OFC category scores and Gustilo-Anderson classification types. RESULTS: 2027 patients (mean age, 43.1 ± 17.5 years) with 2215 fractures were included. Gustilo-Anderson Type I or II fractures (n = 961; 43%) most frequently had the least severe scores for all OTA-OFC categories. Type IIIA fractures (n = 978; 44%) were most often assigned intermediate scores for OTA-OFC Bone Loss (n = 564; 58%). Type IIIB fractures (n = 204, 9%) were most often assigned intermediate OTA-OFC Skin scores (n = 120; 59%). Type IIIC fractures (n = 72; 3%) were most often assigned the most severe OTA-OFC Arterial score (n = 60; 83%). In the multivariable model, OTA-OFC Contamination scores showed little association (β = 0.05; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.01–0.09) with Gustilo-Anderson classification severity. Conversely, higher OTA-OFC Arterial (β = 0.50; 95% CI, 0.44–0.56) and Skin (β = 0.46; 95% CI, 0.40–0.51) scores were strongly associated with more severe Gustilo-Anderson classifications. CONCLUSIONS: OTA-OFC Contamination scores were weakly associated with Gustilo-Anderson classification severity for open fractures. The study findings suggest the current Gustilo-Anderson classification does not adequately account for injury contamination, a known predictor of infection.
