Abstract: (5630 Views) |
| Background & aim: Lack of attention to patient characteristics and type of fracture in the middle third clavicle fractures will lead to a non-:::union::: complication. Identification of risk factors in non-:::union::: is very important to choose the accurate treatment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors of non-:::union::: following the non-surgical treatment.
Methods: This descriptive study was performed on 308 patients older than 18 years of age with fracture of the middle third of the clavicle with displacement. Patient demographic data and information related to fracture (commination, side of fracture, displacement and angulation) were recorded.Patients at two and six weeks, three months and six months after fracture were followed. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 16 software, chi-square tests, Mann-Whitney and logistic regression.
Results: Among the factors associated with :::union:::, the displacement (P = 0.04), commination (P = 0.006) and educational level (P = 0.002) are predictive factors were considered non-:::union:::.
Conclusions: Recognition and predicting the risk factors of non-:::union::: in patients with fractures of the middle third of the clavicle could be a clinical guideline for the selection of surgical or non-surgical treatment. |
