摘要

导言:据估计,气候变化是 21 世纪全球最大的健康威胁,这也促使人们呼吁摒弃与高能耗和温室气体排放相关的医疗保健流程。在肌肉骨骼医学中,夹板被广泛用于固定肢体。这些夹板通常由石膏等一次性使用材料制成,但近年来也出现了据称环保的夹板设计。在本系统综述中,我们将评估包括 Woodcast® 在内的所有市售环保夹板材料的临床效果:方法:在论文审查和数据提取之前,我们检索了 AMED(联合与补充医学数据库)、CINAHL®(护理与联合健康文献累积索引)、Cochrane 对照试验中央登记册、Embase®、Emcare® 和 MEDLINE® 数据库,以确定评估生物可降解和环保夹板临床效果的研究。由于研究设计和结果测量存在很大的异质性,因此无法进行正式的定量综合:六篇论文符合纳入标准,均研究了一种特定的夹板材料(Woodcast®)。其中一篇为系列病例,两篇为队列研究,三篇为随机对照试验。主要研究结果的衡量标准不尽相同,但环保型夹板通常与传统夹板材料相当。大部分研究存在较高的偏倚风险:尽管数据表明 "绿色 "夹板与现有材料相似,且无重大安全问题,但对 "绿色 "夹板在实践中的评估研究有限。还需要对此类夹板的临床有效性和环保性进行进一步审查。

Environmentally friendly splints for limb immobilisation: a systematic review.

Introduction: Climate change is estimated to be the biggest global health threat of the 21st century, and has prompted calls to move away from processes in healthcare associated with high energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission. In musculoskeletal medicine, splints are widely used for limb immobilisation. These have typically been made from single-use materials such as gypsum, although in recent years purportedly environmentally friendly splints have been designed. In this systematic review, we set out to assess the clinical effectiveness of all commercially available environmentally friendly splinting materials, including Woodcast®.

Methods: The AMED (Allied and Complementary Medicine Database), CINAHL® (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase®, Emcare® and MEDLINE® databases were searched to identify studies assessing the clinical effectiveness of biodegradable and environmentally friendly splints prior to paper review and data extraction. Formal quantitative synthesis was not possible owing to the substantial heterogeneity in the study designs and outcome measures.

Results: Six papers met the inclusion criteria, all investigating one particular splint material (Woodcast®). One was a case series, two were cohort studies and three were randomised controlled trials. Primary outcome measures were heterogeneous but the environmentally friendly splints were generally equivalent to traditional splint materials. Studies were mostly at a high risk of bias.

Conclusions: There is limited research assessing 'green' splints in practice although the data suggest similarity with existing materials and no substantial safety concerns. Further scrutiny of the clinical effectiveness and environmental credentials of such splints is also required.
