Filter by:Nerve blocks applied with neuraxial anesthesia and ultrasonography are used for many operations today. Neuraxial blocks cause varying degrees of decrease in the blood pressure level of the patients. Peripheral blocks may be preferred to avoid the cardiac effects of the neuraxial anesthesia method.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the EcoFit Hip with implacross E polyethylene for total hip replacement surgery.
This is a prospective case series of elderly adult patients sustaining pertrochanteric fractures who will be treated by a proximal femoral nail with a non-helical (straight) blade. This study seeks to observe and evaluate the outcomes, advantages and complication rates in using the HERACLES PFN with a non-helical (T-shaped parallel) blade.
To Investigate the Surgical Treatment effect of Periprosthetic Femur Fracture After Hip Arthroplasty
Statistical analysis for adult patients who were admitted to Assiut university hospital within one year with proximal femoral fractures. Protocol of management include lines of treatment , hospital stay and results
This is an observational pilot study of supernormal oxygen delivery goal for patients with proximal femoral fracture.
Certain types of fractures require surgical intervention that may involve the use of bone grafts or bone graft substitutes. Many of the materials used as bone graft substitutes suffer from disadvantages such as soft tissue invasion of the fracture area, inadequate blood supply, failure to encourage the production of bone and ectopic bone formation. A guided bone regeneration (GBR) environment may help in solving these clinical concerns. GBR has been widely used in the field of dentistry since the 1980s to provide stable placement for dental implants The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, performance and initial efficacy of Regenecure's, AMCA Bone Membrane, as a bone stimulating aid for orthopedic trauma applications.
This is an open multicenter study, evaluating a new operative technique in femur neck fractures. The treatment consist of augmentated nails in cases of subtrochanteric or inter fracture due to osteoporosis.There two routine surgical techniques in femoral neck fractures: 1. Insertion an intramedullary nail (without augmentation) to the bone. 2. insertion a nail and metal plateto the bone. The major disadvantage of these methods is the relative high rate (4-10 precentages) of failure because of the femur head bone which is very brittle and osteoporotic. This new approach enables the nail a better grip as a result of the cement augmentation which consists of PMMA (Polymethyl methacrylate). The investigators main goal is to evaluate the use of this surgical technique
Elderly patients undergoing surgery for proximal hip fracture have a high risk of morbidity and mortality (M&M) postoperatively. Several studies including some from the investigators department have shown that there is a high risk of cardiovascular complications in this group of patients and 3-month mortality is 15-20%. One of the causes of this high M&M is the high incidence of cardiac failure associated with an increased NT-proBNP in this group of patients. The aim of the present study is to evaluate whether optimization of preoperative cardiac function can reduce cardiac M&M postoperatively. Following verbal consent, patients with an increased NT-proBNP would be randomized to goal-directed preoperative optimization or standard management according to current hospital routines. Following optimization, the patients would be transferred to the operating rooms and subsequent management including perioperative patient management would be left to the discretion of a specialist anesthesiologist who is directly involved in patient care. Postoperatively, Troponin T and NT-proBNP would be measured in all patients according to the study protocol. In addition, major adverse cardiac events would be documented and follow-up would be done by after 30 days and 3 months postoperatively.
Hypothesis: Inflatable intra medullary femoral nailing is superior to DHS in terms of blood loss, operative complications and postoperative rehabilitation in the management of pertrochanteric femur neck fractures.
