Özet

Objective: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a syndrome usually occurs in one extremity and characterized by pain, tenderness with palpation, and symptoms of autonomic nervous system dysfunction. An essential factor in the etiology of CRPS is immobilization of the extremity as a result of a fracture. Delaying the start of physical medicine and rehabilitation program after removal of the plaster or splint may increase the rates of CRPS development in patients with fractures. This study aims to determine a direct relationship between delay time in rehabilitation and CRPS development.
