ABSTRACT
Objective To study the biological macrofeatures and criterion thereof for fracture immobilization in Chinese Mongolian traditional osteopathy. Method The principles and methods of modern physiological psychology and biomechanics were used in this study to explore the biological macrofeatures and criterion thereof for fracture immobilization, based on the view of the harmony of human and nature (including a unity of body and function) in Chinese Mongolian traditional osteopathy. Results Chinese Mongolian traditional osteopathy implies the biological macrofeatures and criterion thereof for “dynamic immobilization” in fracture treatment, including the stability of structure and force catched, state of static and dynamic, forming and destroying of bone, physical and psychological stability. Therefore, it is a kind of non invasive and non shelter fixing method. Conclusions The biological macrofeature and criterion thereof for the fracture dynamic immobilization in fracture treatment, in Chinese Mongolian traditional osteopathy is not only the fundamental support for its inheritance up to now, but also could be a new attempt in modern fracture immobilization.
