Comparison of Techniques of Closed Reduction - Arch Bar Versus Ivy Eyelet
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction: Many of the postoperative sequels that are seen during the clinical practice of maxillofacial trauma are due to the bypassing of one of the fundamental principles.Currently open reduction and rigid internal fixation is becoming the gold standard for managing simple as well as complex mandibular fractures. The aim of present study was to determine the better maxillomandibular fixation technique between Erich arch bars and Ivy eyelet wiring for closed reduction. Material and methods: The present prospective observational study was conducted amongst 30 subjects who had mandibular fracture and were randomly allocated into two groups. Detailed information about demographics, medical and dental history amongst all the subjects was obtained before the start of the procedure. Double gloves were used during the procedure and the incidence of glove perforation was noted. All the data was recorded in a tabulated form and analysed using SPSS software. Chi square test and student t test were used for the analysis of data. Results: The study enrolled 30 subjects with the mean age of 34.27+/- 11.12 years. There were 19 males and 11 females in this study. Patient acceptance was good in 10 cases of arch bar and 6 cases of ivy eyelet. It was poor in 5 cases of arch bar and 9 cases of ivy eyelet. There was no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion: According to our study, both ivy eyelet and Erich arch bars are equally efficacious for performing maxillomandibular fixation with no significant difference between the two.
