Twenty patients, 17 to 87 years of age, were treated with a dynamic brace for fractures of the humerus. The brace acts by compressing the soft tissues surrounding the fractured bone while the dependent arm of the ambulatory patient helps to pull the displaced bone fragments into normal relationship. As soon as the initial swelling and pain subsides the brace can be applied, usually within the first week. The brace permits early exercise of all the joints; it gives good comfort to the patient. There were two nonunions. Eighteen fractures healed with good anatomical and functional outcome.
20名年龄在17至87岁之间的患者因肱骨骨折接受了动力支具治疗。该支具通过挤压骨折部位周围的软组织发挥作用，同时，门诊患者下垂的手臂有助于将移位的骨碎片牵拉至正常位置关系。一旦最初的肿胀和疼痛消退，通常在第一周内即可使用支具。该支具允许早期对所有关节进行锻炼；能给患者带来良好的舒适度。有2例骨不连。18例骨折愈合，获得了良好的解剖学和功能结果。
