Clinical and Functional Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Osteopathic Treatment of Consolidated Colles’ Fractures During the Rehabilitation Period

Introduction. In 26-43 % of fractures of the bones of upper extremities secondary displacement of fragments occurs in the plaster bandage. It is probable that osteopathic treatment of patients with bone injuries of upper extremities promotes more rapid recovery of impaired functions of the damaged structure preventing possible complications and disability and improving patients' quality of life. That is why it is viable to study the inﬂ uence of osteopathic correction on the healing process of the Colles’ fracture with displacement of bone fragments.Goal of research - to evaluate the effect of osteopathic treatment on the process of adhesion of Colles’ fracture with the displacement of fragments.Materials and methods. 40 patients took part in the research. 20 of them formed the main group. The other 20 formed the control group. An osteopathic examination of patients was performed and somatic dysfunctions were found. The visual analogue scale of pain was used. In order to evaluate the terms of adhesion, an X-ray diagnostic method was used.Results. Osteopathic diagnostics showed that somatic dysfunctions of the left or right wrist were dominant in patients admitted to the trauma bay with Colles’ fracture. Patients of the main group showed a faster normalization of the microcirculation, which meant that negative consequences of edema were less likely to appear.Conclusion. The study of the effect of osteopathic treatment of fractures of distal metaepiphysis of radial bone should be continued. The focus should be on the development and use of new diagnostic methods, which can prove the positive effect of osteopathic treatment on the terms of adhesion of the radial bone.

The article provides an overview of instrumental methods and technical means allowing to evaluate some of the proven effects of osteopathic correction, such as an increase in the range of motion in the joints, normalization of muscle tone, postural balance and walking, anti-inflammatory effect and improvement of blood circulation in patients with amputation defects of the lower extremities. The article provides an overview of instrumental methods and technical means used for diagnostic purposes in the rehabilitation of patients with amputation defects of the lower extremities. The possibility of it to verify some of the osteopathic correction effects, such as an increase in the range of motion in the joints, normalization of muscle tone, postural balance and walking, anti-inflammatory effect, and improvement of blood circulation, has been evaluated.Purpose — to present instrumental methods applicable to assess the results of osteopathic correction in the rehabilitation process of patients with amputation defects of the lower extremities.

The article describes the main objects of osteopathic influence in the body and the caused effects. The effects of osteopathic correction can occur at different times after the session and can be recorded using various clinical and instrumental methods. This should be taken into account when prescribing a re-examination of the patient to confirm the treatment results. A brief review of randomized controlled trials proving the efficacy of osteopathic correction in various diseases is also presented.
