  1. 1. On ankle fractures

    Författare :Emilia Möller Rydberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ankle Fracture; Fracture Register; Epidemiology; Incidence; Treatment; Management; Treatment Algorithm; Knowledge Support;

    Sammanfattning : Ankle fractures range from simple avulsions to complex injuries and the treatment options are numerous. Sweden has no national guidelines regarding the management and treatment of ankle fractures, leaving these choices up to local tradition or individuals’ decisions. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Studies of ankle fractures : classification, epidemiology, complications and results

    Författare :Hans Juto; Per Morberg; Magnus Hultin; Michael Möller; Sari Ponzer; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ankle fracture; Swedish Fracture Register; AO OTA-classification; epidemiology; venous thromboembolic event; low-molecular-weight heparin; sick leave; outcome; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Sammanfattning : The ankle fracture is one of the most common fractures in adult patients and is a heterogeneous group of fractures. From the fully stable fracture on the most distal part of thefibula to severely unstable and even dislocated ankles. Patients with ankle fractures often report a good result after treatment, but a small group have persistent problems. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Foot-Ankle Joints Responses. Epidemiology, Biomechanics and Mathematical Modeling

    Författare :Chantal S. Parenteau; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mathematical models; biomechanics; range of motion; ankle injury; injury mechanisms; ligament failure; center of rotation; ankle and subtalar joints; ankle fracture;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to acquire better knowledge of foot-ankle injuries because of their increasing importance in car crashes. Three approaches were used: epidemiology, biomechanics and mathematical modeling. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Aspects of bone quality and risk assessments in fracture and elective orthopaedic patients

    Författare :Camilla Bergh; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fracture; Fracture incidence; Epidemiology; Mortality; Osteoporosis; Frailty; Spinal stenosis; Bone quality; Bone mineral density;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Bone quality, bone strength, and bone remodelling are important in many orthopaedic conditions and can have an impact on fracture incidence, bone healing, implant failure, and different outcome aspects. There is relatively sparse information on fracture incidence and mortality both for all fractures compiled and for some of the individual fracture locations. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Ankle fractures. Outcome and rehabilitation. A physiotherapeutic perspective

    Författare :Gertrud Nilsson; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; subjective outcome; ankle fracture; physical outcome; rehabilitation; surgical treatment; balance; quality of life; age; training programme;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this work was to evaluate symptoms, subjectively scored function and physical outcome in patients with surgically treated ankle fractures. Another aim was also to evaluate the effects of a standardised but individually suited supervised training program. LÄS MER
