This article highlights 2 important complications of fracture: acute compartment syndrome and fat embolism syndrome (FES). FES is most commonly associated with long-bone and pelvic fracture, whereas acute compartment syndrome is often associated with tibia or forearm fracture. The onset of both of these complications may be difficult to assess in the nonverbal patient or in the patient with multiple trauma. Careful, serial assessment of the patient with fracture is necessary to recognize and treat these complications promptly. Early treatment and supportive care are crucial to positive outcomes for patients with complications of fracture.
急性骨筋膜室综合征和脂肪栓塞综合征(FES)。FES最常与长骨和骨盆骨折相关,而急性骨筋膜室综合征常与胫骨或前臂骨折相关。在无语言表达能力的患者或多发伤患者中,这两种并发症的发病情况可能难以评估。对骨折患者进行仔细的、连续的评估对于及时识别和治疗这些并发症是必要的。早期治疗和支持性护理对于骨折并发症患者取得良好预后至关重要。
