Therapeutic efficay comparison of the proximal humeral locking compression plate and the traditional plate in the treatment of proximal humeral fracture

Objective To explore the clinical effect of the proximal humeral locking compression plate and the traditional plate in the treatment of proximal humeral fracture. Methods 86 patients with proximal humerus fractures in our hospital from August 2012 to October 2013 were selected as research object,and they were randomly divided into control group and study group,each group had 43 cases.The control group were given traditional plate treatment;and the study group were given proximal humeral locking compression plate. The operative time,blood loss,Neer score,postoperative healing time and complication rates of two groups were compared. Results The operative time of study group and control group were(149.87±19.31)min and(154.17±23.62)min;the difference between two groups was not statistica(lP0.05);The blood loss of study group and control group were( 98.17±15.83)mL and(129.10±15.34)mL; there were significant different between the two groups( P 0.05);The excellent and good rate of the study group(86.05%)was significantly higher than that of the control group(60.47%),there was significant different between the two groups( P 0.05);The postoperative healing time of study group and control group were( 13.01±4.08)weeks and( 16.75±3.46)weeks;the difference between two groups was statistical(P 0.05);The incidence of postoperative complications of study group and control group were 4.65% and 20.93%;The difference between the two groups were statically significant(P 0.01). Conclusion The proximal humerus locking compression plate in the treatment ofproximal humeral fracture than traditional steel,has a significant effect,less bleeding,the low rate of complications and healing the fracture,is worthy of clinical use.
