Incidence and treatment of complex regional pain syndrome after surgery: analysis of claims data from Germany
We found a low incidence of CRPS after various types of surgeries. Although previous research has focused on distal radius fractures and ankle surgery, our data suggest that clinicians should be aware of CRPS after other types of surgeries as well. Real-world treatment of CRPS does not reflect recommendations in clinical practice guidelines.
