There is evidence to support the role of specific exercise regimens in reducing impairments and improving upper limb function following specific upper limb fractures
QUESTION What is the effect of exercise on reducing impairment and increasing activity in the rehabilitation of people with upper limb fractures ?
Independent exercises versus physiotherapy in nondisplaced proximal humeral fractures.
42 patients with undisplaced , proximal humeral fractures were r and omly assigned into two groups in order to compare the results of instruction to the patient for independent exercises and conventional physiotherapy . No differences appeared between the groups subjectively or as regards functional parameters at 1 as well as at 3 months after the fracture and at a follow up more than 1 year later . As no disadvantage could be found instructions to the patients should in these cases be regarded as a satisfactory after-treatment
