Different methods of external fixation for treating distal radial fractures in adults

Abstract

Analysis 2.5. Comparison 2 Non-bridging versus bridging external fixation, Outcome 5 Residual pain.. .. .. Analysis 2.6. Comparison 2 Non-bridging versus bridging external fixation, Outcome 6 Pain (VAS 0 to 100: worst). Analysis 2.7. Comparison 2 Non-bridging versus bridging external fixation, Outcome 7 Range of motion (degrees).. Analysis 2.8. Comparison 2 Non-bridging versus bridging external fixation, Outcome 8 Range of motion

Incidence of Acute Vascular Injury Associated with Fracture Distal Radius

“…The majority of distal radial fractures are closed injuries, meaning the skin above the fracture is uninjured. This is consistent with earlier writers who have demonstrated this [9,10] .…”

A Guide to Organizing a Multicenter Clinical Trial

“…From the 46 included articles, it was concluded that many of the treatment recommendations relied on expert opinions and were not evidence-based 8. This finding was in agreement with several systematic reviews performed by the Cochrane collaboration,18-21 indicating the need for better comparative investigations. As such, the WRIST study group’s question compares the volar locking plate system to closed reduction/percutaneous pinning and external fixation ± pin fixation in treating unstable DRFs in the elderly population.…”

Colles’ Fracture Treated with Non-Bridging External Fixation: A 1-Year Follow-Up

“…External fixation is a surgical technique that is easy to carry out, without extensive stripping of soft tissue. The evidence supporting the use of the non-bridging technique instead of the bridging technique has been questioned (Handoll et al, 2008). Our study indicates that NBEF offers a reliable method to maintain radiological reduction and functional outcome 1 year after Older type II/III fractures.…”
