Objective: The aim of our study was to compare the clinical results of simple arm sling, velpeau bandage and eight bandage used in the conservative treatment of paediatric clavicle shaft fractures.

Material and Method: Patients who were treated conservatively for isolated clavicle shaft fractures between June 2021 and January 2023 were included in our study. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores measured during outpatient clinic visits, bandage-related complications during the treat-ment process, Pediatric/Adolescent Shoulder Survey scores of patients in all three groups after treatment, displacement of the fracture before treat-ment, and shortening of the clavicle at 1st year after treatment were determined.

Results: The study was conducted with a total of 82 patients, 51 boys and 31 girls, aged between 6 and 18 years. The 1st day and 1st week VAS pain score values of the Velpeau bandage method were found to be statistically significantly lower than the simple arm sling and eight bandage methods, and the 1st day and 1st week VAS pain score values of the simple arm sling method were found to be statistically significantly lower than the eight bandage method (p <0.05).

Conclusion: Simple arm sling, velpeau bandage and eight bandage have similar reliability results in the conservative treatment of paediatric clavicle shaft fractures. We think that the use of velpeau bandage in the treatment of these fractures provides better early pain control compared to simple arm sling and eight bandage and reduces bandage-related problems especially in the use of eight bandage.
