This is a study of 295 patients (23.1% of 1278 patients with long bone fractures) who had visited the traditional bonesetter (TBS). The initial idea of visiting TBS was mooted by an external person in 75% of cases, whereas to discharge from TBS was usually the patient's idea. The reasons for a patient to opt for aTBS are explored.
这是一项针对295名患者(1278名长骨骨折患者中的23.1%)的研究,这些患者曾就诊于传统接骨师处。在75%的病例中,去看传统接骨师的最初想法是由外人提出的,而从传统接骨师处出院通常是患者自己的想法。本文探讨了患者选择传统接骨师的原因。
