An open fracture, also known as a compound fracture, is a serious injury resulting in a broken bone that either protrudes through the skin or can be seen from the open wound in the skin. Because of the open wound, contamination and infection is of great concern.
Open fractures are considered a true orthopedic emergency. Most surgeons aim to have antibiotics initiated and to surgically clean the wounds and bone within 6 hours of the injury. Additionally, surgical stabilization with the use of plates, screws or rods may be performed at the time of the wash out.
