A clinical study on robot navigationassisted intramedullary nail treatment for humeral shaft fractures.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the advantages of robot navigation system-assisted intramedullary nail treatment for humeral shaft fractures and compare it's efficacy with that of traditional surgical intramedullary nail treatment.

Materials and methods

This was a retrospective analysis of patients with humeral shaft fractures who received intramedullary nail treatment at our centre from March 2020 to September 2022. The analysis was divided into a robot group and a traditional surgical group on the basis of whether the surgery involved a robot navigation system. We compared the baseline data (age, sex, cause of injury, fracture AO classification, and time of injury-induced surgery), intraoperative conditions (surgery time, length of main nail insertion
