Abstract
The elbow joint is one of the most complex joints in the human body, playing a crucial role in coordinating movements between the shoulder, forearm, and wrist, with functions including flexion, extension, and rotation. Elbow dislocation is a common yet serious injury, causing significant discomfort and increasing economic burden for patients in their normal work and daily life. With a deepening understanding of the condition, an increasing number of scholars recognize the importance of comprehensive management focused on prevention. This paper, integrating concepts and principles of tertiary prevention from preventive medicine, provides an overview of common causes, diagnostic methods, and preventive measures for this condition. Early diagnosis and intervention are emphasized to offer healthcare workers a theoretical basis for action. Through multi-dimensional, multi-system preventive measures, the occurrence rate of elbow dislocation can be reduced, improving clinical treatment outcomes and enhancing disease prognosis, so that to improve patients' quality of life.
