Brief Summary:
Refugees live in camps under unusual living conditions The children in the camps may not have enough safe facilities to play If an injury occurred in these children the classical and adequate regime of treatment may not be available Hence it may be valuable to find simple cheap and safe methods of treatment for their injuries
Detailed Description:
Fractures of the distal forearm especially radius are the most common fracture reported in childhood and a frequent reason for visiting the emergency unit and orthopedic clinic in hospitals Because of the age of patients and proximity to the joint these fractures heal well and have a good ability to remodel the bone even with mild displacement Therefore most of these fractures are treated conservatively by a short arm cast with frequent visits to the orthopedic clinic within 4-6 weeks without significant complications Several studies report successful treatment of these fractures by removable splint as a substitute for the cast The splints proved to be safe and cost-effective in managing these common minor injuries in children under usual living conditions
