Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate whether providing patients with a question prompt list (QPL) prior to their orthopaedic surgery clinic appointment improves their perceived involvement in care (PICs) score compared to being given 3 questions from the AskShareKnow model
The aim of the present study is to assess the clinical performance (patient satisfaction, fracture, shade matching, Marginal adaptation and sensitivity) of laminate veneers made with celtra duo press ceramic and IPS e.max press ceramic with incisal wrap design.
This study is a Post Market Clinical Follow-up study to fulfill the post market surveillance requirements. The data collected from this study will serve the purpose of confirming safety and performance of the TESS Shoulder System.
The aims of this study are to test a manualized mind body skills-building program aimed at preventing the development of chronic pain and disability following acute musculoskeletal injury in at-risk patients.
Spiral metacarpal fractures (metacarpal II-V) can be treated conservatively or with operation. With minimal displacement this fracture is usually treated with immobilisation or early mobilisation. With appreciable displacement especially any malrotation the patient usually is treated with an operation. This usually includes an open reduction of the fracture and fixation with plates and screws or just screws. Even if this is an standard procedure both mild and severe complications have been reported. New studies have shown that even displaced fractures can be treated with early mobilization. In those cases the fractures may heal with some shortening but very good function. An advantage of early mobilization is that the patient avoids the risk of an operation and the costs for the treatment are decreased markedly. The study is designed to answer the question if early mobilization is not inferior to operative treatment but with lower costs and without any operation related risks.
The primary objectives of this study are: i) to procure human calvarial bone, ii) to grow cells from these tissues in vitro, iii) and to evaluate the osteogenic potential of these cells.
Multicentric osteolysis, nodulosis and arthropathy (MONA) spectrum disorder is a rare inherited progressive skeletal disorder caused by mutations in the matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) gene. Treatment options are limited. The investigators reviewed the outcome of patients affected with MONA and treated with intravenous bisphosphonates in the clinical Center.
The objective is to determine the effect of vitamin D3 supplementation on fracture healing at 3 months.
BACKGROUND: The deterioration of musculoskeletal system imposes significant impact on physical activity in older adults. METHODS: This was a randomized, parallel-group, prospective study. All participants received education program including home-based exercise. The IC group consisted of different modalities of exercise while the LEE group performed machine-based exercise. Body composition, muscle strength, and physical performance were measured at their baseline and 3 months follow-up.
Since May 2010 the Department of Trauma, Basel University Hospital has performed surgical stabilisation of the posterior pelvic ring on 55 patients. These patients have not received a structured follow up examination or evaluation of outcome after surgery.
