Evans-Jensen classification
The Evans-Jensen classification is a system of categorizing intertrochanteric hip fractures based on the fracture pattern of the proximal femur.
Classification
| Type | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| I | A | 2-part non-displaced |
| B | 2-part displaced | |
| II | A | 3-part fracture with separate greater trochanter fragment |
| B | 3-part fracture with separate lesser trochanter fragment | |
| III | 4-part fracture | |
gollark: That is an interesting idea actually, yes.
gollark: In what language?
gollark: Maybe you could make some sort of fancy tool to automatically try and flatten stuff into fewer dimensions. Although this *may* be somewhat impossible.
gollark: So it's stored as... a mapping from dimension to position instead?
gollark: What do you mean "vector list storage"? Does it run-length-encode dimensions a bit or just use resizæble arrays for position?
