Puntos clave

To determine the incidence proportion of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) after distal radius fracture (DRF).
Conducted a population-based register study
Analyzed CRPS diagnosis rates post-DRF
Focused on age groups and treatment types, including surgery
Observed low incidence proportion (IP) of CRPS following distal radius fracture
Higher IP noted in individuals aged 30-65
Increased incidence also noted in patients treated surgically

Resumen

There was a low IP of CRPS diagnosis after DRF treatment with an observed higher IP in the 30-65-year-olds and in surgically treated patients. We consider this to be a minimum IP due to possible undiagnosed cases, but the overall results may be closer to the clinical reality than previous studies.
