METHOD FOR ESTIMATION DEFINITION OF DURATION OF ADDITIONAL IMMOBILISATION OF FOOT AFTER ITS RECONSTRUCTION BY METHOD OF OPERATED PEROSSEOUS OSTEOSYNTHESIS Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC A61B6/03 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: according to KT data zone of interest is singled out and analysis of received data is carried out. For this purpose the area of generated bony regenerate in vertical and horizontal planes concerning the longitudinal axis of the bone are divided into 9 central and peripheral sites. At presence of several central or peripheral sites located consistently in vertical or horizontal planes, with density less than 40 HU, necessity of additional immobilisation within 8-10 weeks is defined. At similar density in cases of presence of at least three peripheral sites or a minimum of two, one of which is central, additional immobilisation should be carried out within 5-6 weeks. At indicators of density of specified sites within 40-60 HU additional immobilisation should be carried out within 4 weeks. At density 60-80 HU additional immobilisation should be carried out within 2-3 weeks after removal of the device of external fixing.

EFFECT: increase of forecast accuracy of duration of additional immobilisation of foot after its reconstruction.
