- Types of fracture
- Twisting force = spiral fracture
- Compression force = short oblique fracture
- Bending = triangular 'butter-fly‘ fragment
- Tension force = Transverse
- Twisting force = spiral fracture

- Managements of fracture
- Casts
- Holds a broken bone in place as it heals
- Prevent or decrease
muscle contractions, and
are effective at providing
immobilization,
especially after surgery.
- Casts immobilize the joint
above and the joint below the
area that is to be kept
straight and without motion.
- What is it made up of?
- Hard part of the cast
- Plaster (white in color)
- Fiberglass
- Plaster (white in color)
- Inside of the cast
- Cotton and other synthetic materials

- Hard part of the cast
- Types of Casts
- Holds a broken bone in place as it heals
- Physiotherapy
- Importance
- Some complications are not detectable
by doctors but can be detected by
physiotherapist & physiotherapy
prevents atrophy of the muscles

- Includes
- Massage
- Ice therapy
- Scar management
- Exercise
- Joint manual therapy
- Balance and control walking
- Return to sport preparatory work.
- Lasers and ultrasound.
- Structured and progressive regime.
- Massage
- Importance
- Casts
- Bone Healing
- Healing is faster in
bone than in
cartilage due to lack
of blood vessels in
cartilage
- Clinical treatment
- Fracture Fixation
- External fixation
- Used for fractures that are
too unstable for a cast. You
can shower and use the hand
gently with the external
fixator in place.

- Internal fixation
- Surgical procedure that
stabilizes and joins the ends
of fractured (broken) bones
by mechanical devices such
as metal plates, pins, rods,
wires or screws.

- Frame fixation
- Allows correction
of deformities by
moving the pins
in relation to the
frame.

- External fixation
- Reduction of Fractures
- Closed reduction = restore
pieces to normal position by
manipulation
- Open reduction
= realignment
during surgery
- Surgical procedure
to restore a
fracture or
dislocation to the
correct alignment
- Aim
- To regain normal lenght & alignment
- To regain normal lenght & alignment
- Closed reduction = restore
pieces to normal position by
manipulation
- Fracture Fixation

bone than in
cartilage due to lack
of blood vessels in
