Direct Radiography Following Fracture Reduction Improves the Reliability of Pauwels Classification2021 •

Evaluation of the Inter and Intra-Observer Reliability of the AO Classification of Intertrochanteric Fractures and the Device Choice (DHS, PFNA, and DCS) of FixationsBACKGROUND:ArbeitsgemeinschaftfürOsteosynthesefragen (AO) classification is the most frequently used tool to classify intertrochanteric fractures. However, there is limited evidence regarding its reliability. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate inter-observer and intra-observer reliability of the AO-2018 intertrochanteric fracture classification.METHOD: A retrospective study was conducted in Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex, on radiography of patients who came with intertrochanteric fractures from March 21, 2018, to March 19, 2019. Four orthopedic trauma surgeons assessed 96 anteroposterior pelvic radiographs of intertrochanteric fractures and classified using an AO intertrochanteric fracture classification of 2018. The reading and review of radiography were performed in 2 separate occasions in a 1-month interval. The inter-observer and intra-observer reliability was assessed using kappa statistics.RESULT: The level of both mean inter-observer (K =0.322; 95%CI: 0.321-0.323)...

The reliability of a simplified Garden classification for intracapsular hip fractures2012 •
The Garden classification is used to classify intracapsular proximal femur fractures. The reliability of this classification is poor and several authors advise a simplified classification of intracapsular hip fractures into non-displaced and displaced fractures. However, this proposed simplified classification has never been tested for its reliability. We estimate simplifying the classification of femoral neck fractures will lead to a higher inter-observer agreement. Ten observers, trauma surgeons and residents, from two different institutes classified 100 intracapsular femoral neck fractures. The inter-observer agreements were calculated using the multi-rater Fleiss' kappa. The inter-observer kappa for the Garden classification was 0.31. An agreement of κ0.52 was observed if the Garden classification was simplified and the fractures were classified by our observers as 'non-displaced' or 'displaced'. No difference in reliability was seen for the use of the four-g...
