Filter by:Here the investigators describe the statistical analysis plan for the study assessing the prediction of fracture nonunion leading to secondary surgery in patients with distal femur fractures.
This is a randomised prospective comparison study to evaluate the incidence of cut - out failure of the dynamic hip screw implant alone compared to the dynamic hip screw adding calcium sulfate through the cervical canal before placing the sliding screw for improvement of the implant stability integration and bone healing.
The purpose of this study is to monitor severe pain for femur fracture after treatment with paracetamol IV or OR.
The pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) is a regional anaesthetic technique that was developed in 2018, primarily for total hip arthroplasties (THA) as a postoperative analgesia modality with motor sparing benefits. The block is thought to provide more complete analgesia to the hip by depositing local anaesthetic within the myofascial plane of the psoas muscle and superior pubic ramus. In this study, the investigators will assess the effect of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block on pain control in patients with proximal femur fracture in the emergency department. The Control group will receive morphine as regular patient control analgesia (PCA) The interventional group will receive PENG block before being attached to regular morphine PCA
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of an intra-operative, post-fixation fracture hematoma block compared to saline control on postoperative pain control in patients with acute femoral shaft fractures. Our primary outcome measure is visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores which are recorded at regular intervals.
Femur fracture is very common in older people. It makes the people bedridden for long time at hospital. The fracture of femur is generally managed by the surgical procedure. Prolonged fasting for surgery makes the patients harassed physically as well as mentally. The long fasting state emphasizes the body more in catabolic state which increases the insulin resistivity. Pre-operative carbohydrate loading before two hours the surgery has been launched in practice to overcome these problems in the world context, however it is not in existence in Nepal. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of pre-operative carbohydrate loading in the case of femur fracture surgery. This study utilize a hospital based randomized control trial study design to assess the effect of carbohydrate loading before two hours the surgery over the completely fasting state. A representative sample size of 66 patients (control group =33 and study group =33) aged 50 years and above having femur fracture planned for surgery will be selected for research. The pre-operative nutritional status will be identified and the post-operative outcomes will be measured by Visual Analogue Score (VAS) and Cumulative Ambulatory Score (CAS). Statistical analysis will be performed using chi square test, independent sample t-test or Mann-Whitney U test to compare between the outcome of study groups and control groups. The outcome of the study may provide a platform to the anaesthesiologists and surgeons towards the emerging concept of pre-operative carbohydrate loading practice in Orthopedics surgery in Nepal.
The purpose of this trial is to determine whether oral acetaminophen and intravenous ketorolac are viable alternatives to opioid medication regimens for the pain management of patients with tibial and femoral shaft fractures treated with intramedullary nailing. This study will explore an alternative for opioid medications for patients undergoing intramedullary nailing of tibial and femoral shaft fractures.
A randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy and safety of the prolonged compartment psoas block for analgesia and anesthesia for femur surgery in the elderly
This project was intended to observe the handover of trauma and orthopaedic patients at a district general hospital in the UK. Following the implementation of a standard operating protocol, the handover of patient information improved including neck of femur fracture patients significantly. The study can therefore be utilised by other similarly structured departments to improve the handover process, thereby improving patient safety.
The trial aims to verify a possible greater analgesic efficacy of PENG (Pericapsular Nerve Group) block compared to iliac fascia block (FIB block) in elderly patients (age > 65 years) suffering from traumatic fracture of proximal femur in emergency room.
