Injury and Fracture Management
Injury and fracture management begins with a prompt evaluation to determine the severity of the trauma.
overview
Immediate pain management is provided using child-appropriate medications. Injured limbs are stabilized with splints or immobilizers to prevent further injury and reduce discomfort until definitive treatment can be given.
Accurate diagnosis is essential, and imaging like X-rays or MRIs is used to identify the type and location of fractures. This helps guide appropriate treatment and rule out complications like joint involvement or growth plate damage.
Symptoms & Diagnosis
Simple fractures are often treated with casting or splinting, while more complex injuries may require surgical intervention, such as the insertion of pins, plates, or rods to properly align and stabilize the bones.
