I've lost my pointer to it, can someone remind me where to find the study that shows that recovery rates from collateral ligament damage to return to full work is only about 20%??


THanks!
 
CP can you see original papers?

this is the reference I think

Osseous abnormalities associated with collateral desmopathy of the distal interphalangeal joint. Part 2: Treatment and outcome
Author(s): Dakin, SG (Dakin, S. G.)1; Dyson, SJ (Dyson, S. J.)1; Murray, RC (Murray, R. C.)1; Newton, R (Newton, R.)2
Source: EQUINE VETERINARY JOURNAL Volume: 41 Issue: 8 Pages: 794-799 DOI: 10.2746/042516409X452170 Published: NOV 2009


summary of results :

Results: Follow-up data were available for 182 horses, 55 of which had follow-up information for up to 2 years after presentation. Twenty-seven percent of horses with CL injury alone and 34% of horses with CL related osseous injury returned to their previous performance level. Prognosis for a combination of injuries to multiple soft tissue and osseous structures within the hoof capsule was substantially worse. There was no effect of ECSWT or RPWT on outcome.

If you need more off it let me know ;) :D
 
Thankyou Ester :)

Why sorry Charmeroo? I don't have one, thankfully, I 'm just trying to open someone's eyes to a barefoot approach. I hope your horse is better but if not and it has shoes on, please search barefoot rehab on here and look at rockleyfarm.blogspot.com
