Abstract
This study investigates the post‐surgical outcomes of orthopedic trauma patients. Orthopedic injuries, often requiring surgical intervention, can significantly impact a patient’s quality of life. The recovery trajectory post‐surgery is crucial for effective rehabilitation and long‐term outcomes. The primary objective is to evaluate the short‐term and long‐term post‐surgical outcomes in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery for trauma. Key metrics include pain levels, mobility, functional recovery and the incidence of post‐surgical complications. A cross‐sectional study was conducted with a sample size of 200 patients who underwent orthopedic surgery for trauma. Data collection involved patient surveys, medical record analysis and physical assessments conducted at three and six months post‐surgery. Statistical analysis was used to evaluate outcomes and identify factors influencing recovery. Preliminary findings indicate varying degrees of recovery, with significant improvements in pain management and mobility. However, a notable percentage of patients experienced post‐surgical complications, impacting their recovery trajectory. Detailed results will discuss the correlation between patient demographics, type of surgery, and recovery outcomes. The study provides insights into the recovery patterns of orthopedic trauma patients post‐surgery. Identifying factors that contribute to better or poorer outcomes can guide improvements in surgical techniques, post‐operative care and patient counseling.
