A 20-year national decline in wrist fractures: Unraveling trends and persistent challenges
Background
Wrist fractures are among the most common upper extremity injuries. Despite their prevalence and significant societal and healthcare costs, long–term epidemiological data on national wrist fracture trends remain limited.
Methods
This retrospective study analyzed data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) and U.S. Census data to evaluate national trends in wrist fractures from 2004 to 2023. Utilizing weighted sampling techniques, incidence rates were calculated, and demographic patterns, causes, and differences between athletic and non–athletic injuries were assessed. Statistical analyses included regression models, chi–square tests, and injury proportion ratios (IPR).
Results
Over the twenty-year study period, there were a reported 106,929 wrist fractures, representing 4,040,516 cases nationwide (95% CI: 3,414,316–4,666,716). The incidence declined significantly over the study period from 78.04 per 100,000 person–years in 2004 to 60.27 in 2023 (p < 0.05), representing a 22.7% decrease in overall wrist fracture incidence rates. Males aged 5–14 years showed the highest fracture rate (238.2 per 100,000), primarily driven by sports–related injuries such as bicycling, football, and skateboarding. Conversely, females aged ≥65 years had the highest risk of non–athletic fractures, often due to falls on stairs or floors. Nearly half (47.96%) of all wrist fractures were sports–related, with males three times more likely than females to sustain such injuries (OR: 3.05, p < 0.001).
Conclusion
This comprehensive analysis of wrist fracture trends over two decades reveals a significant decline in overall incidence, with notable demographic patterns. These findings underscore the importance of targeted prevention strategies, such as improving safety measures in youth sports and enhancing fall prevention programs for older adults, while highlighting the need for continued research to inform effective prevention and treatment strategies.
期刊介绍:
As the official publication of the French, Belgian and Swiss Societies for Surgery of the Hand, as well as of the French Society of Rehabilitation of the Hand & Upper Limb, ''Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation'' - formerly named "Chirurgie de la Main" - publishes original articles, literature reviews, technical notes, and clinical cases. It is indexed in the main international databases (including Medline). Initially a platform for French-speaking hand surgeons, the journal will now publish its articles in English to disseminate its author''s scientific findings more widely. The journal also includes a biannual supplement in French, the monograph of the French Society for Surgery of the Hand, where comprehensive reviews in the fields of hand, peripheral nerve and upper limb surgery are presented.
Organe officiel de la Société française de chirurgie de la main, de la Société française de Rééducation de la main (SFRM-GEMMSOR), de la Société suisse de chirurgie de la main et du Belgian Hand Group, indexée dans les grandes bases de données internationales (Medline, Embase, Pascal, Scopus), Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation - anciennement titrée Chirurgie de la main - publie des articles originaux, des revues de la littérature, des notes techniques, des cas clinique. Initialement plateforme d''expression francophone de la spécialité, la revue s''oriente désormais vers l''anglais pour devenir une référence scientifique et de formation de la spécialité en France et en Europe. Avec 6 publications en anglais par an, la revue comprend également un supplément biannuel, la monographie du GEM, où sont présentées en français, des mises au point complètes dans les domaines de la chirurgie de la main, des nerfs périphériques et du membre supérieur.
