Tibial plateau fractures

Tibial Plateau Fractures and postoperative weight bearing

We are hoping that you can complete this international survey study which focuses on postoperative weight bearing status after operatively treated tibal plateau fractures. We are trying to assess the variability of weight-bearing times after tibial plateau fractures and assess whether a randomized controlled trial might be of use.
The survey includes 6 consecutive cases with different fractures of the tibial plateau.
Each case will start with basic demographic information followed by X-rays and a preoperative CT scan. Then, you will be presented with the postoperative X-ray and asked about your postoperative weight-bearing protocol given each fracture and fixation construct.

Please assume the clinical examination provides no additional information about
surgical decision-making beyond soft tissues being amenable to surgery.

The survey takes around 10 min to conduct
