Clinical Application of External Fixator in Orthopedics and Traumatology

Abstract

In order to explore the clinical effect of external fixation in patients with traumatic orthopedics, 84 patients with various types of fractures in our hospital were selected as the research object. They were randomly divided into control group and experimental group, 42 cases in each group. The control group received routine orthopedic treatment, and the experimental group received external fixation. The therapeutic effects of the two groups were observed and compared statistically. Compared with the control group, the excellent and good rate of the experimental group was higher. The operation time, wound healing time and hospital stay were shorter, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The results show that: for patients with limb fractures, the use of external fixator in the treatment can restore the injured parts of patients, while the operation time is short, the amount of blood loss and complications of patients are significantly lower, so it can be widely used in clinic. For orthopedic trauma patients, external fixator treatment effect is exact and less damage, easy to operate, will not lead to serious complications. It should be recommended for clinical use.
