Although the term “major fracture” is commonly used in the management of trauma patients, it is defined insufficiently to date. The polytrauma section of ESTES is trying to develop a more standardized use and a definition of the term. In this process, a standardized literature search was undertaken. We test the hypothesis that the understanding of “major fractures” has changed and is modified by a better understanding of patient physiology. |
