This research aimed to improve the advantages of the continuous traction on bed and traditional binding with bamboo slabs for bone fracture. The authors also research on using PouliquÌnstyle frames in treating for patients with severe supracondylar fracture who were not able to bind normally, especially when lack of equipment. 52 patients aged from 7-15 years old with closed supracondylar fracture were involved in the study. Each of them was treated in two phases. First, after minimum reduction, the patient was passed a K-needle through olecranon and given continuous traction with 2-3 kg for 2 weeks on a PouliquÌnstyle frame made from crame slabs. Then, in the second phase, the patient was bound by traditional bamboo slabs that allow the elbow movement, before and after reduction once a week during treatment process. the results showed that this method can treat successfully for some cases with severe supracondylar fracture who failed on reduction and have surgical indication. 77.08% of patients were excellent and good, 16.66% were moderate and 6.25% were bad.
