Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of different opportune time and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) courses in adjunctive therapy of comminuted tibial fracture.Methods In accordance with different treatment methods, 49 cases of comminuted tibial fracture were divided into the HBO group (n =27) and the conventional therapy group (n =22).Cure rates, as well as different opportune time and HBO courses were compared between the 2 groups.Results The cure rate of the HBO group (81.5%) was obviously higher than that of the conventional therapy group (54.5%), and statistical significance could be noted, when comparisons were made between the 2 groups (P < 0.05).Cure rates for those patients who received HBO therapy 3 days, 3-7 days or over 7 days after surgery, were respectively 92.3% , 88.9% and 40.0%.There was statistical significance, when the cure rate of the 3-day after surgery subgroup was compared with that of the 7-day after surgery subgroup (P < O.05).The cure rates for the patients who underwent less than 5 sessions,5-10 sessions or over 10 sessions of HBO therapy were respectively 75.0%, 78.6% and 88.9%, with statistical significance (P < 0.05).Conclusions Adjunctive HBO therapy could increase the cure rate of comminuted tibial fracture, and the earlier HBO therapy was implemented, the better results could be achieved.
