approach may provide an alternative in non-obligatory fractures in the current COVID-19 pandemic and perhaps later on as well. It may serve as a route for us to manage orthopaedic injuries till we tide over the peak of the pandemic and resume elective surgeries. Perhaps, the Coronavirus crises has given us this unique opportunity to rethink and revisit traditional methods of treating fractures and the tolerance to operate every limb fracture must be risen. We must realize that all the fractures do not always need operative management and the conservative management still has a certain place in our armamentarium of fracture management, in an evolving world. \end{abstract} \keywords{orthopaedic injuries, trauma, COVID-19, non-operative management, fracture, dislocation.} \begin{textblock*}{18cm}(1cm,1cm) % {block width} (coords) \textcolor{GJBlue}{\LARGE Global Journals \LaTeX\ JournalKaleidoscope\texttrademark} \end{textblock*} \begin{textblock*}{18cm}(1.4cm,1.5cm) % {block width} (coords) \textcolor{GJBlue}{\footnotesize \\ Artificial Intelligence formulated this projection for compatibility purposes from the original article published at Global Journals.

Such treatments help reduce number of visits to the hospital and also exposure to ultra-dense waiting rooms which could be a breeding ground for SARS-CoV-2. \hyperref[b21]{[19]}\hyperref[b22]{[20]}\hyperref[b23]{[21]} Few patients with lower limb fracture have been more susceptible to pulmonary infections with limited ambulatory capacity. \hyperref[b24]{22,}\hyperref[b25]{23} The COVID-19 pandemic exposed orthopaedic surgeons to manage traumatic injuries with limited resources and in safe manner whilst guarding all other healthcare professionals. \hyperref[b26]{[24]}\hyperref[b27]{[25]}\hyperref[b28]{[26]}\hyperref[b29]{[27]}\hyperref[b30]{[28]}\hyperref[b31]{[29]}\hyperref[b32]{[30]} According to Fineberg 2020, the patients who have to be treated should be categorized based on the COVID-19 exposure - \hyperref[b33]{31} 1) A patient who is not known to be exposed or infected at any time 2) A patient who was exposed but is currently asymptomatic 3) A patient who has recovered from COVID and could be adequately immune 4) A patient who is possibly infected (persons with sign and symptoms consistent with infection who initially test negative) 5) A patient who is currently infected Extensive measures have been taken by different countries, in order to reduce person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 in a variety of ways, in which the social distancing, lockdowns, curfew and selfisolation remaining common across the whole world. \hyperref[b9]{[9]}\hyperref[b10]{[10]}\hyperref[b11]{[11]}\hyperref[b12]{[12]}\hyperref[b14]{[13]} Hence, the rate of Road Traffic Accidents (RTA's) are drastically declined due to extensive lockdown, but the rate of fragility fractures continues to be unaffected, due to more prevalent osteopenia and osteoporosis with progressive ageing.

A three-layer surgical mask, hand sanitizer and a pair of disposable gloves should be provided at the entry point to patients along with their attendants who require emergency care. \hyperref[b36]{[34]}\hyperref[b37]{[35]}\hyperref[b38]{[36]} The door handles, chair handles, tables and other necessary material in the waiting areas should be regularly cleaned with 1\% sodium hypochlorite atleast 4 times a day. \hyperref[b39]{[37]}\hyperref[b40]{[38]}\hyperref[b41]{[39]}\hyperref[b42]{[40]} A separate specialized area should be kept ready in the triage to treat COVID patients with trauma. The respective CMO's and the SMO's in the hospital should be informed immediately, in case a symptomatic patient is encountered.\par Each orthopaedic surgeon along with attendants, are advised to donned PPE kits before examining every single patient, which later on should be carefully doffed off after use. \hyperref[b43]{[41]}\hyperref[b44]{[42]}\hyperref[b45]{[43]}\hyperref[b47]{[44]}\hyperref[b48]{[45]} Resuscitate the patient and rule out all the injuries, also ask the patient to fill Informed consent, along with splintage of fracture limb. \hyperref[b35]{33} All the necessary pre-operative investigations along with COVID-19 testing are advised.\par If possible, the portable X-rays and ultrasound should be shifted to consulting room to avoid contamination of the radiology area and it also helps in decreasing movement of symptomatic patients. \hyperref[b37]{35} For investigations like CT scan or MRI, we have to sterilize the respective area after investigating every patient as per centres for disease control and prevention guidelines. \hyperref[b37]{35} Patients with closed fractures are advised to wait for surgical interventions until the COVID-19 results are out.\par All cases that need urgent management like an open fracture, vascular injuries, compartment syndrome or mangled limb; and cannot wait until COVID reports.

The coronavirus crises has led to depletion in the surgical volume, and preference of non-operative management of trauma over operative. On the contrary, orthopaedic surgeons must remain vigilant all the time and be prepared to provide optimal care to the injured patients. \section[{Conflict of Interest: None}]{Conflict of Interest: None}\par Author Contribution: All authors have equally contributed for completion of this manuscript. \begin{figure}[htbp] \noindent\textbf{} \par \begin{longtable}{P{0.22753120665742024\textwidth}P{0.005599861303744799\textwidth}P{0.06719833564493759\textwidth}P{0.13174410540915393\textwidth}P{0.007073509015256588\textwidth}P{0.010610263522884881\textwidth}P{0.128502080443828\textwidth}P{0.15885922330097088\textwidth}P{0.09431345353675451\textwidth}P{0.018567961165048545\textwidth}} \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \multicolumn{3}{l}{Metatarsal Fractures}\tabcellsep Patella Fractures\tabcellsep displaced\tabcellsep intra-articular\\ \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \multicolumn{3}{l}{Phalanx Fractures}\tabcellsep Talar Fractures\tabcellsep fractures\\ \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep Calcaneous\tabcellsep Fractures\tabcellsep Irreducible dislocations\\ \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep with gross displacement\\ \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep Lis Franc Injuries\\ \multicolumn{2}{l}{Limb injuries in children and}\tabcellsep \multicolumn{4}{l}{Preferred Indications}\tabcellsep Peri-prosthetic Fractures Equivocal Indications Pathological Fractures\tabcellsep Contraindications\\ \multicolumn{2}{l}{adolescents III.}\tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \tabcellsep \\ Hand\tabcellsep Limb\tabcellsep \multicolumn{3}{l}{Clavicle Fractures}\tabcellsep \tabcellsep Displaced Fractures.\tabcellsep Unreduced dislocations\\ Trauma\tabcellsep \tabcellsep \multicolumn{4}{l}{Proximal humerus fractures}\tabcellsep Eg.
