This study aimed to investigate the types of orthopedic injuries sustained by earthquake survivors who require long\u2010term rehabilitation, as well as to assess the rehabilitation programs, orthoses, prostheses, and assistive devices employed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This descriptive analysis was conducted at a physical medicine and rehabilitation clinic. Data on earthquake survivors were recorded retrospectively. The study included survivors who presented to the clinic between April 15, 2023, and May 1, 2024, with injuries sustained during the Kahramanmara\u015f earthquakes that occurred on February 6, 2023. The types of orthopedic injuries, rehabilitation programs, and orthoses\u2010prostheses used were documented.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Data from 223 earthquake survivors were analyzed. Among these, 97 (43.5%) had compartment syndrome, 65 (29.1%) had amputations, 57 (25.6%) had fractures, 20 (9%) had peripheral nerve injuries, 12 (5.4%) had soft tissue injuries, and two (0.9%) had dislocations. Physiotherapy was provided to 211 (94.6%) patients, occupational therapy to 56 (25.1%), amputation rehabilitation to 65 (29.1%), and electrotherapy to 12 (5.3%). Prostheses were fitted for 37 (16.5%) amputees, orthoses were used by 57 (25.6%) patients, and 103 (46.1%) required assistive devices.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Among earthquake\u2010related injuries requiring medical rehabilitation, compartment syndrome was the most common. The rehabilitation process of patients who developed compartment syndrome and amputation continues 1\u00a0year after the earthquake. Adults were the most frequently affected age group. The data obtained in this study will help plan local health services to coordinate medical rehabilitation in earthquakes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/pri.70005","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,6]],"date-time":"2024-11-06T09:10:17Z","timestamp":1730884217000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Analysis of Medical Rehabilitation Needs of 2023 Kahramanmara\u015f Earthquake Victims: Ad\u0131yaman Example"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"30","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1549-351X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Esin","family":"Akba\u015f","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Ad\u0131yaman University  Ad\u0131yaman Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6912-4405","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kezban","family":"Bayramlar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Hasan Kalyoncu University  Gaziantep Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","unstructured":"Afet ve Acil Durum Y\u00f6netimi Ba\u015fkanl\u0131\u011f\u0131 (AFAD).2023. 06 \u015eubat 2023 Pazarc\u0131k\u2010Elbistan (Kahramanmara\u015f) Mw: 7.7 \u2013 Mw: 7.6 Depremleri Raporu. 140 s."},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14744\/tjtes.2024.27553"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00068\u2010023\u201002325\u20106"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.26807"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2340\/16501977\u20100890"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00264\u2010012\u20101736\u2010x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hcl.2023.08.012"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S1049023X12000076"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/09638288.2010.500345"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/pri.1714"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1756\u20105391.2009.01045.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2340\/16501977\u20101969"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/230949901101900102"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.apmr.2007.09.027"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.apmr.2012.05.018"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2340\/16501977\u20100896"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110079501600610"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199602153340706"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra054329"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_21_1","unstructured":"World Health Organization.2013.Disaster Disability and Rehabilitation.www.who.int\/violence_injury_prevention\/other_injury\/disaster_disability2.pdf."},{"key":"e_1_2_11_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2340\/16501977\u20100945"}],"container-title":["Physiotherapy Research International"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/pri.70005","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,29]],"date-time":"2025-01-29T11:02:47Z","timestamp":1738148567000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/pri.70005"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,6]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/pri.70005"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/pri.70005","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1358-2267","1471-2865"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1358-2267","type":"print"},{"value":"1471-2865","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,6]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-07-26","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-10-19","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-11-06","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"e70005"}}
