Abstract

Background: The Chrisofix® Chest Orthosis is an effective and easy to use device for the treatment of rib fractures. It is used as a supportive treatment to reduce the pain levels and complication risks of the patients. Methods: Patients hospitalized with the diagnosis of rib fractures in the Thoracic Surgery Service of a university hospital were retrospectively scanned in an online computer program between October 2018 and October 2021. The study sample consisted of patients with the treatment (30) and control (30) groups. Results: Visual Analog Scale and incidence of atelectasis of the patients in the experimental group (The Chrisofix® Chest Orthosis) is statistically significantly lower than the control group (P < 0.05). In both the experimental and control groups, no statistically significant difference was found between the variables of patient’s demographic and clinical characteristics (p > 0.05). Conclusions: In the study, with the use of The Chrisofix® Chest Orthosis, a significant decrease was observed in the Visual Analog Scale and the incidence of atelectasis.

评估 Chrisofix® 胸廓矫形器在创伤性肋骨骨折患者中的应用

背景：Chrisofix® 胸部矫形器是一种有效且易于使用的肋骨骨折治疗设备。它作为一种辅助治疗手段，可减轻患者的疼痛程度和并发症风险。使用方法在 2018 年 10 月至 2021 年 10 月期间，对某大学附属医院胸外科诊断为肋骨骨折的住院患者进行在线计算机程序回顾性扫描。研究样本包括治疗组（30 例）和对照组（30 例）患者。研究结果实验组（Chrisofix®胸廓矫形器）患者的视觉模拟量表和肺不张发生率在统计学上显著低于对照组（P < 0.05）。在实验组和对照组中，患者的人口统计学和临床特征变量之间没有发现明显的统计学差异（P > 0.05）。结论在这项研究中，使用 Chrisofix® 胸廓矫形器后，视觉模拟量表和肺不张的发生率都明显下降。孟加拉国医学科学杂志》第 23 卷第 01 期 24 年 1 月第 83-88 页
