Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Supination maneuver is mainly used for reduction of radial head subluxation in children, but recently, pronation maneuver has also achieved good results in the treatment of radial head subluxation. OBJECTIVE:To objectively evaluate the efficacy of pronationversus supination maneuvers for the reduction of radial head subluxation by using Meta-analysis. METHODS:PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controled Trials (CENTRAL), EMbase, the ISI Web of Knowledge databases, VIP, CNKI, CBM and Wanfang were searched from database establishment to December 2014 for colecting the randomized controled trials (RCTs) about pronationversus supination maneuvers for the reduction of radial head subluxation, and the references of those RCTs were also searched by hand. After study selection, assessment and data extraction were conducted by two reviewers independently. Meta-analyses were performed by using the RevMan 5.2 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Five studies involving 436 patients were included. The results of Meta-analyses showed that: compared with the supination maneuvers group the pronation maneuvers group had a higher rate of successful reduction at the first attempt [RR=1.17, 95%CI (1.08, 1.28),P=0.000 3] and lower rate of failed reduction [RR=0.25, 95%CI(0.09, 0.65),P=0.005]. There was no significant difference in the rate of successful reduction at the second attempt [RR=1.39, 95%CI (0.75, 2.58),P=0.30]. Based on the results of systemic assessment, the level of evidence assessed by the GRADE system showed that the outcome indicators of the rate of successful reduction at the first attempt and rate of failed reduction were graded as intermediate level; the outcome indicator of the rate of successful reduction at the second attempt was graded as low level. For the poor quality of the original studies, a prudent choice is suggested; and more highly-quality, large-sample studies are needed.
