Bone Fractures Treatment – Six Criteria

Bone fractures are something that we can treat successfully most of the time.

So the six things that truly matter when it comes to bone fractures

are the anatomical position of the bone fracture, that is where the fracture actually took place.

Furthermore, the question whether fragments are present is important,

and if the fracture also involves joint surfaces, then we have to know the pattern of the fracture,

which in this case would be the transverse pattern of the fracture. Also, a displacement of the

fractured bone is important, and soft tissue involvement where arteries and nerves can be

damaged, or if the skin is damaged, we might be dealing with an open fracture, which can easily be

infected.
