Popis: | Tudy objective - retrospective analysis of distal forearm fracture rates due to low trauma in men and women aged 50 years and over in the Yekaterinburg city in the period 1992-1997 was performed. The study was based on patients’ registration at the emergency units. Results -the mean incidence rate of forearm fractures was 758,5 per 100,000 inhabitants (among male - 249,3 and among female - 1064,2 per 100,000). In women the incidence rate increased till 69 years, and after that age the decrease was noted. The mean frequency in women was the highest between October and March, when the streets are slippery with ice. In contrast, in men the incidence rates did not differ in various age groups and different weather seasons. Conclusion - distal forearm fractures are common in elderly urban population in Russia. Differences in season rates in male and female might result from different mechanisms of fall in men and women. |
