Objective To investigate the effect of emergency orthopedic surgery on the incidence of complications in the treatment of multiple trauma, and to provide the basis for the optimization of clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods 74 patients with multiple trauma in our hospital from January 2025 to December 2025 were selected and randomly divided into experimental group and control group, 37 cases in each group. The experimental group received emergency orthopedic surgery, while the control group received conservative treatment. The incidence of pulmonary infection, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis, wound infection, fat embolism syndrome and other complications were compared between the two groups, and the occurrence time of complications and related clinical indicators were recorded. The differences between the two groups were analyzed by statistical method. Results the total effective rate of the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group Among the 37 patients in the experimental group, 6 cases had complications, accounting for 16.22%, which was lower than 43.24% in the control group (16 cases). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ²=6.94, p<0.05). The incidence of pulmonary infection and lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group, and the occurrence time of complications was later than that in the control group, and the treatment cycle of complications per capita was shorter than that in the control group. Conclusion the incidence of complications after emergency orthopedic surgery for multiple trauma is significantly reduced, which can delay the occurrence time of complications and optimize the clinical treatment effect. It is worthy of clinical promotion and application, but the surgical indications should be strictly grasped.
