“Limitación funcional por fracturas de hombro, multifragmentaria de olécranon falange distal de 2do y 4to dedo de miembro superior derecho post traumatismo”

Abstract

The present case study was performed in a 58-year-old male, working in constructions, with a history of controlled hypertension for 8 years, and cardiomegaly. The patient suffers a traffic accident as a co-pilot with multiple fractures. He is treated in the emergency area of the IESS Ambato Hospital where he was classified as an orange patient and treated for shoulder fractures, multifragmentary olecranon, distal phalanx of 2nd and 4th finger of the upper right limb, resulting in functional limitation. We analyzed the patient's picture motivated to find serious functional limitations, so we sought the probable causes, as well as identified the risk factors, the critical points describing the opportunities and actions of improvement and finally proposes a plan of complementary physiotherapeutic treatment to achieve the recovery of functional capacities.
