Active exercise regimen vs an immobilisation regimen following surgery

Adverse events requiring (or indicated for) surgery · participants undergoing rehabilitation following surgery for flexor tendon injuries of the handa

It is very uncertain whether active exercise regimen changes adverse events requiring (or indicated for) surgery compared with an immobilisation regimen following surgery (very low certainty).

Place and hold exercise regimen vs controlled passive exercise regimen following surgery

Adverse events requiring (or indicated for) surgery · participants undergoing rehabilitation following surgery for flexor tendon injuries of the handa

It is very uncertain whether place and hold exercise regimen changes adverse events requiring (or indicated for) surgery compared with controlled passive exercise regimen following surgery (very low certainty).

Summary of findings. Surgery (percutaneous wire fixation) vs not surgery (cast only)

Serious adverse events (typically more serious complications) ( · children with displaced distal radius fracture with intact or involved or displaced ulna fracture (both‐bone fracture)

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings. Surgery (percutaneous wire fixation) changes serious adverse events (typically more serious complications) ( compared with not surgery (cast only) (very low certainty).

Early active flexion plus controlled passive exercise regimen vs controlled passive exercise regimen following surgery

Adverse events: participants incurring one or more adverse events · participants undergoing rehabilitation following surgery for flexor tendon injuries of the handa

It is very uncertain whether early active flexion plus controlled passive exercise regimen changes adverse events: participants incurring one or more adverse events compared with early controlled passive exercise regimen (very low certainty).

Locking plate vs locking intramedullary nail

Adverse events: number of participants with complications · adults undergoing surgery for displaced proximal humeral fracturesa (2 trials)

It is very uncertain whether locking plate changes adverse events: number of participants with complications compared with locking intramedullary nail (very low certainty).

Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) vs hemiarthroplasty

Adverse events: number of participants with complications · adults undergoing surgery for displaced proximal humeral fracturesa (2 trials)

Intervention not reported

Adverse events: superficial infection · adults with open long bone fractures; study in the review included only Gustilo II open tibia fractures

It is very uncertain whether the intervention changes adverse events: superficial infection (very low certainty).

Timing of wound closure (immediate vs delayed)

Adverse events ‐ superficial infection · adults with open long bone fractures of the upper and lower limbs

It is very uncertain whether timing of wound closure (immediate changes adverse events ‐ superficial infection compared with delayed) (very low certainty).
