Interobserver Reliability and Intraobserver Reproducibility of the Fernandez Classification for Distal Radius Fractures
Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 08/13/09

Naqvi SGA et al. – The authors have evaluated the clinical application of the Fernandez classification without questioning the scientific validity, by assessing the interobserver reliability and intraobserver reproducibility. The assessors classified the fractures on two different occasions 3 months apart. The outcome was assessed using kappa statistics and demonstrated poor interobserver reliability and intraobserver reproducibility. Caution should be exercised when using this classification for clinical practice and research.
