Q

identify the correct statements regarding the treatment of fractures

A
  • most fractures are set by open reduction internal fixation (ORIF)
  • traction is used to treat fractures of the femur in adults because it aids in the alignment of the bone fragments by overriding the force of the strong thigh muscles
  • open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) involves surgically exposing the fractured bone and using plates, screws, or pins to realign the fragments
  • hip fractures are usually pinned and early ambulation (walking) is encouraged because it promotes blood circulation and healing
  • fractures that take longer than 2 months to heal may be treated with electrical stimulation which accelerates repair by amplifying the effects of parathyroid hormone
