Clinical Research of Dynamic Hip Screw And Proximal Femoral Nail In Treatment of Intertrochanteric Fractures / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the curative effect of dynamic hip screw(DHS) and proximal femoral nail (PFN)in treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. Methods Dynamic hip screw(DHS) group is A group30 patients, proximal femoral nail( PFN) group is B group30 patients. In the respect of the average length of the incision, operation time,blood loss,X-ray exposure times,postoperative drainage volume,blood transfusion volume,antibiotics usage time,hospitalization time,postoperative ambulation time,healing time of fracture,criteria of Harris hip function score after half a year,complication rate,this paper made the comparative analysis of clinical efficacy and statistical analysis between the two groups. Results 60 patients were followed up for 9 months to 4 years, with the average of 2 years and 3 months and no death. The average length of the incision, operation time, blood loss, X-ray exposure times, postoperative drainage volume,blood transfusion volume, DHS group were( 13. 4 ± 1. 9) cm, (92. 8 ± 13. 0) min, (321.0±39.4)ml,(5. 8 ± 1.2)times, (84.1 ± 10. 1)ml, (316.6 ±79. 1 )ml;PFN group were(7.6 ± 1.1 )cm,(59. 0±6. 9)min, (204. 6 ±32. 7) ml, (5.0 ±0.9) times, (53. 9 ± 8. 7) ml, ( 196. 6 ± 18. 2) ml; the differences between two groups were statistically significant ( all P ＜ 0. 05 ) . Hospitalization time, postoperative ambulation time, healing time of fracture,DHS group were(6.2±3.7)d,(17.8±1.8)d,(69. 8 ± 12. 3)d, (13. 0 ± 1. 6) weeks,PFN group were(4.7 ±2. 6)d,( 16.0 ±2. 2)d, (46.9 ±4. 9)d, (11. 3 ±0.7) weeks, the difference was statistically significant (all P＜0. 05). Antibiotic use of time,hip function(Harris score standard)excellent and good rate after half a year, there's no significant difference between the two groups( all P ＞ 0. 05). Complication rate, DHS group40% ; PFN group 10%. The difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion Intertrochanteric fracture fixation PFN group had an advantage of smaller surgical trauma,less bleeding,shorter healing time,more rapid postoperative recovery,lower complication rate and other characteristics comparing with the DHS group. So it was worth being recommended for a wider use.
