Factors associated with complex regional pain syndrome in surgically treated distal radius fracture / Fatores associados à síndrome de dor regional complexa em fratura do distal do rádio tratada cirurgicamente

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with developing complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) after surgical treatment for distal radius fracture (DRF). Methods: This case-control study analyzed patients seen from January 2014 to January 2016. Results: In our sample of 249 patients, 4% developed CRPS. Associated factors were economic compensation via work disability (odds ratio [OR] 14.3), age (OR 9.38), associated fracture (OR 12.94), and level of impact (OR 6.46), as well as psychiatric history (OR 7.21). Conclusions: Economically-productive aged patients with a history of high-impact trauma and patients with a history of psychiatric disorders have greater risk of developing CRPS after DRF. Level of Evidence III, Case-Control Study.

RESUMO

RESUMO Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivo identificar fatores de risco associados ao desenvolvimento de síndrome de dor regional complexa (CRPS) após o tratamento cirúrgico da fratura distal do rádio (DRF). Métodos: Este estudo de caso/controle analisou pacientes atendidos de janeiro de 2014 a janeiro de 2016. Resultados: Em nossa amostra de 249 pacientes, 4% desenvolveram CRPS. Os fatores associados foram compensação econômica (razão de chances [RC] 14,3), idade (RC 9,38), fratura associada (RC 12,94) e nível de impacto (RC 6,46), bem como história psiquiátrica (RC 7,21). Conclusões: Os pacientes com idade produtiva e história de trauma de alto impacto e os com história de transtornos psiquiátrico têm maior risco de desenvolver CRPS depois de DRF. Nível de Evidência III, Estudo de Caso Controle.
