Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A pelvic fracture can cause significant pain and instability, and the use of a binder can help stabilize the injury and reduce discomfort. Binders are not typically used for tibia/fibula fractures, knee dislocation, or lumbar vertebral compression fractures. These injuries require other forms of treatment such as immobilization, reduction, and surgery.
