Abstract：Objective To analyze the clinical application difference of Neer classification system in manag-ing proximal humeral fractures .Methods Data of 86 patients with proximal humeral fractures admitted into our hospital from Feb.2006 to May 2011 were collected and analyzed .The 86 patients were divided into specialist train-ing group(surgeons received shoulder joint specialized training )and control group (surgeons didn't receive any spe-cialized training).The two groups were tested in 2 steps,which were conducted through reading X ray film and CT slice.In addition,the test was repeated every 2 weeks.Statistical analysis was conducted using Kappa test for ana-lyzing reliability and repeatability;T test was conducted to compare the classification difference between the two groups.Results Four times X ray and CT film reading achieved good reliability and repeatability between the two groups;the reliability in the specialization training group was significantly higher than the control group ,indicating statistically significant difference (P<0.05).Conclusion Standard specialized training for shoulder joint treat-ment and auxiliary CT imaging can improve the accuracy of Neer classification .
