Fracture, accident and implant-related injury care

Trauma and Fracture Care

After an injury, timing and soft-tissue care matter as much as the X-ray. Treatment considers the fracture pattern, joint involvement, circulation, nerve function and overall medical stability.

Conditions

Trauma and fracture problems assessed.

  • Upper- and lower-limb fractures.
  • Fractures involving joints.
  • Delayed union, non-union and malunion.
  • Implant-related problems and periprosthetic fractures.
  • Selected ligament, tendon and soft-tissue injuries.
  • Planned implant removal when clinically appropriate.
Treatment

Stability, soft-tissue safety and healing biology.

Some fractures are treated with a cast, brace, protected weight bearing or imaging follow-up. Others require reduction and fixation with plates, screws, nails, wires, external fixation or joint reconstruction.

Assessment

Fracture alignment, skin and muscle condition, circulation, nerves and associated injuries.

Fixation

A method selected to balance stability, movement and biological healing.

Recovery

Follow-up imaging and progressive rehabilitation guide return to weight bearing, work and sport.

Emergencies

When clinic follow-up is not enough.

Important

For a new severe injury, open fracture, deformity, uncontrolled bleeding, a numb or cold limb, head injury or inability to move safely, attend the nearest emergency department immediately.

FAQ'S

Orthopaedic trauma care involves the treatment of injuries to the musculoskeletal system caused by accidents, falls, or other sudden impacts.

Injuries include fractures, dislocations, ligament tears, and soft tissue damage. Treatment can range from non-surgical methods to complex surgical repairs.


Recovery depends on the injury's severity and treatment method. It often involves immobilization, physical therapy, and a gradual return to activities.
