    Sammanfattning : The most common fracture is the distal radius fracture (DRF). Wrist function is of importance for the ability to perform activities of daily living, work-related tasks and leisure activities. Treatment generally focuses on restoring anatomical alignment and providing adequate rehabilitation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Proximal and distal humeral fractures. Outcome of primary arthroplasty

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fracture; Arthroplasty; Proximal humeral fracture; Distal humeral fracture; Randomized controlled trial; Assessment of outcome; Patient-reported outcome measure;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with both proximal humeral fractures and elbow injuries, especially distal humeral fractures. The main focus is difficult fractures in the elderly. Few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are available. If the joint surface is considerably affected (e. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Delirium in old patients with femoral neck fracture : risk factors, outcome, prevention and treatment

    Sammanfattning : Delirium is probably the most common presenting symptom of disease in old age.

  4. 4. Periprosthetic femoral fracture after total hip replacement. Incidence, risk factors, and treatment

    Författare :Georgios Chatziagorou; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Periprosthetic fracture; Interprosthetic fracture; Incidence; Risk factors; Treatment; Outcome; Mortality;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the incidence of surgically treated periprosthetic femoral fractures (PPFF) in Sweden between 2001 and 2011, the demography of this population, risk factors that may contribute to its occurrence and the treatment of these fractures. All four studies in this thesis are observational and are based primarily on material from the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR) database. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : An elderly patient who sustains a hip fracture has increased morbidity and mortality. Scandinavia presents the highest incidence annually of hip fractures worldwide. Femoral neck fracture (FNF) of the hip accounts for 50% of all hip fractures in geriatric patients. LÄS MER
