早期康复对肘关节骨折术后功能恢复的影响

目的比较肘关节骨折术后早期与延迟开始实施康复治疗的不同疗效。方法根据介入的时间将57例患者分成早期组（29例）和延迟组（28例）。两组患者经系统康复治疗后进行Mayo肘关节评分和关节活动度（ROM）评定，1年后随诊肘关节活动障碍例数。结果早期组Mayo肘关节评分（P<0.01）、ROM（P<0.05）均优于延迟组；两组1年后随诊，肘关节活动障碍例数有显著性差异（P<0.05）。结论早期康复能最大限度恢复肢体功能。

Effects of Early Rehabilitation on Functional Restoration after Fractures of Elbow

ObjectiveTo compare the effect of the rehabilitation in early and late stage postoperatively for the fractures of the elbow. MethodsAccording to the time the rehabilitation intervened, 57 cases were divided into the early group (29 cases) and the late group (28 cases). After systematic rehabilitation, the two groups were evaluated with Mayo Elbow-Performance and range of motion (ROM). The incidence of elbow disorder was compared between groups a year after fracture. ResultsThe Mayo scores (P＜0.01) and ROM (P＜0.05) improved more in the early groups than in the late groups, and the incidence of elbow disorder was less a year later (P＜0.05). ConclusionEarly postoperative rehabilitation for the fractures of the elbow joint could facilitate function restoration.
