众所周知,侧面跌倒到臀部是老年人髋部骨折的一个明显危险因素,但目前还不清楚这种跌倒会造成多大的伤害。这项对15至49岁年轻人的回顾性患者档案调查表明,跌倒髋关节确实是一种严重的高冲击性损伤,即使在年轻健康男性中也具有股骨近端骨折的能量。在这种情况下,很明显,侧向福尔斯坠落可能非常危险,因此是预防骨折的自然目标。(c)2006年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
A sideways fall onto the hip is known to be a clear risk factor for hip fracture of elderly people, but it has remained unclear how severe injury such a fall can be. This retrospective patient file survey of young adults aged 15 to 49 years suggested that a fall onto the hip is indeed a serious high-impact injury possessing energy to fracture the proximal femur even in young healthy men. This being the case, it is evident that sideways falls can be very dangerous and thus a natural target for fracture prevention. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
