Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the functional outcome of unstable
#Intertrochanteric fractures treated with proximal #femoral nail while
using
#Harriship score.
Methods: This is a prospective observational study conducted
at #OrthopaedicSurgery Department. Total 91 patients of either gender
with
age between 18 to 70 years had closed AO type 31A2 and 31A3 unstable
Intertorchanteric fractures of proximal femur and for ease labelled as
type I and type II subsequently. All patients were operated with
proximal Femoral Nail, using a standard prescribed surgical technique.
After 3
months of surgery, patient was called for follow up and asked to answer
the Harris hip score questionnaire. Effect modifiers were controlled by
#stratification using chi square test and p-value ≤0.05 was considered as
significant.
