Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

From Jane 2015 to October 2016, patients with displaced humeral shaft fractures are retrospectively included in this study, they were treated with either operative plate or conservative treatment. All the patients are regularly followed up in clinic. Then we will compare the union rate and clinical functional outcome(DASH score) between the 2 groups at 1 year after surgery.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Conservative Treatment

Standard protocol for conservative treatment will consist of the implementation of a sling and patient comfort. Pendulum or gentle Range of Motion (ROM) shoulder exercises may be implemented at any time as dictated by the attending surgeon.

Conservative Treatment

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Conservative Treatment

Operative Plate Fixation

The operating surgeon will determine the positioning of the patient for surgery. ORIF of the humeral shaft fracture will be carried out
