[Post-traumatic edema as a limiting factor in early functional treatment measures and its pharmacodynamic modification]
Abstract
Post-traumatic oedema is a limiting factor of early functional exercise following fractures. A review of drug prophylaxis used in many clinical studies is given. A 30% reduction of oedema development following bimalleolar fractures was achieved with cyclooxigenase inhibitors (azapropazone) and aprotinin. It is pointed out that non-steroidal antiphlogistic drugs inhibit the collagen metabolism during the healing of rat skin-wounds.
