{"title":"Shoulder-specific Outcome after Proximal Humerus Fracture Influences Medium-term Overall Quality of Life.","authors":"Ralf Henkelmann, Paul-Vincent Link, Peter Melcher, Jan Theopold, Pierre Hepp","doi":"10.1055/a-1666-9231","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1055/a-1666-9231","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Background: </strong>Surgical treatment of proximal humerus fracture is an established procedure. Postoperative complications have been shown to have a significant impact on shoulder-specific outcome. Little is known to date about an influence on injury-independent quality of life.</p><p><strong>Aim of the work: </strong>The aim of this retrospective study is to analyse whether patients with a poor functional outcome after surgically treated proximal humerus fracture also show a reduced general quality of life in the medium term. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of patients with poor functional outcome due to postsurgical complications.</p><p><strong>Material and methods: </strong>Evaluation of all patients operated at one level 1 trauma centre with a proximal humerus fracture in the period 01.01.2005 to 31.12.2015 and follow-up using validated scores (Constant-Murley Score [CMS], EQ-5D). Two groups, group A with good outcome (∆CMS ≤ 15P.) and group B with poor outcome (∆CMS ≥ 16P.), were defined. Furthermore, descriptive variables including definition of a complication were defined in advance.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>138 patients were included in the study (group A: 91, group B: 47). The mean follow-up was 93.86 months ± 37.33 (36-167). Group B had significantly more complications. Furthermore, patients with poor outcome regarding the shoulder (group B) were also found to have significantly lower EQ-VAS (78.9 ± 19.2 [20.0-100] vs. 70.4 ± 19.5 [15.0-98.0]; p = 0.008) and EQ index (0.91 ± 0.14 [0.19-1.00] vs. 0.82 ± 0.17 [0.18-1.00]; p < 0.001).</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>In conclusion, in the present study, the patients with poor outcome of shoulder function in CMS have significantly lower overall quality of life after a mean of more than 6 years of follow-up. The poor outcome was due to a significantly higher postoperative complication rate. This was independent of the fracture morphology present and the surgical procedure used.</p>","PeriodicalId":51219,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Orthopadie Und Unfallchirurgie","volume":"161 4","pages":"422-428"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10266383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
