Fracture |
| |
The most common sites
are the wrist, spine and the upper part of the femoral
bone. |
 |
 |
| |
|
| |
Immobilization |
| |
About 50% of patients with
fractures of the femoral bone are confined to bed, leading
to immobility and the need for nursing care.

Spinal
pain and distortion |
| |
A hunchback not only affects
appearance, but also affects lung expansion, thereby exacerbating
lung failure. |
| |
 |
| |
|
| |
Death |
| |
20% of patients die as a result
of the fracture of the femoral bone. |
