Filter by:The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of design on plate position at the level of the distal radius. Six anterior wrist plates design were analyzed relative to the watershed line using the Soong classification. A total of 2723 anterior locking plate fixation cases were analyzed and divided into six groups: Zimmer Biomet, Newclip Technics, Stryker, Synthes, Medartis and Medartis Footprint. The number of plates recorded as Soong grade 0+1 was determined for each design, then compared using the Marascuilo procedure. The Zimmer Biomet and Newclip plates were proximal to the Watershed line significantly more often than those by Synthes and Medartis Footprint. Plate position with the Medartis design was significantly more proximal to the Watershed line compared to its companion design, the Medartis Footprint plate. Plate design is a deciding factor when treating distal radial fractures, to avoid impingement when implant removal is not routinely planned.
Delayed union or nonunion, which is a common complication of periarticular fractures repaired with angled locking plate systems, may be due to the unintentionally rigid formation of this system. This study aimed to compare the results of the treatment of distal tibial fractures made more flexible using the far cortical locking (FCL) technique with the classical bicortical locking screw (BL) technique.
The aim of this study is to apply pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block or fascia iliaca plan block using ultrasonography to patients who will undergo hip fracture surgery, while giving sitting position before spinal anaesthesia and to reduce postoperative pain complaints. Thanks to these blocks, it is aimed to reduce pain complaints and the need for morphine-derived painkillers before and after surgery.
Comparison of analgesia between ultrasound guided supracondylar radial nerve block and hematoma block for closed reduction of distal end radius fractures- an observational study
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy, defined as improved range of motion and functional outcome scores, of early elbow motion in the early (immediately post-op) and late postoperative periods (2 week post-op).
The goal of this surgeon survey is to find out if orthopedic and trauma surgeons can predict outcomes in older adults with distal radius fractures. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can orthopedic and trauma surgeons effectively predict which treatment would benefit a patient the most in terms of good outcome versus poor outcome (based on Δ PRWE) following casting or surgical treatment for displaced intra-articular distal radius fractures? - What are the perspectives of trauma surgeons and orthopedic surgeons on current literature? - What factors direct trauma surgeons and orthopedic surgeons to surgery?
Ultrasound tool in bones trauma is underused in the emergency department of the University Hospital of Saint-Etienne. This prospective non randomized monocentric study will measure how much this non irradiant method of diagnostic is sensible and specific in long bones fractures, and will evaluate it advantages versus conventional X ray examination.
Alveolar ridge expansion is suggested for alveolar crest thicknesses of 3-5 mm. Osseodensification (OD) and screw expansion (SE) techniques have been utilized to expand narrow alveolar ridges (NAR). This study aims to compare the implant stability quotient (ISQ) values of endosteal dental implants (DIs) inserted into NAR via osseodensification versus manual screw expansion.
When assessing an injured child, doctors must decide whether or not there is an underlying bony fracture. The current way of doing this is by x-ray. In 2011, 46,000 children attended Sheffield Children's Hospital Emergency Department and 10,400 x-rays were taken - predominately for diagnosis of fractures. For foot and wrist, 2,215 x-rays were 'normal' with no fracture, at a cost of £119,610 (at a tariff of £54 per x-ray). Considering the cost and undesired effect of radiation exposure, a better way to discriminate those patients with fracture is needed. The non-invasive technique of thermal imaging holds promise as a putative technique. The investigators have earlier demonstrated the potential of thermal imaging for vertebral fractures, diagnosing limp and measuring respiration rate. This study investigates thermal imaging to screen for wrist fractures. The objectives are: (i) accurately identify fracture location, (ii) exclude cases that are sprain and thus reduce the need for their x-ray. The confirmation of a fracture would still require a x-ray. As the study is in collaboration with Sheffield Children's Hospital, only children will be included, however the findings will also be applicable to adults. Thermal imaging is a completely safe and harmless operation, as the camera is non-contact and emits no radiation. Any trauma, such as a wrist fracture, results in changes in blood flow that in turn affects the skin surface temperature of the skin overlying the injury. These changes affect the amount of emitted infrared radiation and will be recorded and explored to find a marker to differentiate fractures and sprains.
Distal radius fractures are among the most common fractures treated by hand therapists. These patients are most conservatively treated with closed reduction and cast immobilization. Since there is an immobilization process after both treatments, a limitation in the range of motion of the joint occurs in patients. For this reason, most of the treatment models applied in rehabilitation are about restoring the range of motion of the joint. In general, kinesiophobia occurs due to joint limitation and pain. Loss of proprioception occurs in patients with mobility and desire as a result of kinesiophobia. By investigating the techniques used in rehabilitation, the more correct one for the patient can be selected. There is no clear result in the literature about which of the application methods is more effective. The aim of the study is to compare the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) based stretching and Mulligan mobilization on pain, proprioception (joint position sense), wrist functionality, muscle strength and kinesiophobia in patients with joint limitation after distal radius end fracture. Thirty-four individuals aged 18-65 who were referred to a physiotherapy and rehabilitation program after distal radius end fracture will be included in the study. Individuals will be randomized into two groups. In the study, algometer and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the pain intensity of the patients, universal goniometer for the evaluation of the forearm and wrist joint range of motion, microFET®2 Digital Handheld Dynamometer for the evaluation of the strength of the wrist flexor and extensor muscles, ulnar and radial deviation muscles. device will be used. The functional use of the wrist of the individuals is using the patient-based wrist assessment questionnaire (Patient Graded Wrist Assessment PRWE), the sense of attachment position for proprioception, and the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS) for kinesiophobia. In our study, an exercise program will be applied with a physiotherapist for 6 weeks, 2 days a week, 45 minutes. To the first group; In addition to the traditional treatment, Mulligan mobilization will be applied, and the second group will be applied to the PNF techniques, 'hold-relax' in addition to the traditional treatment. It can be considerable that both techniques applied in our study may have positive effects on pain, kinesiophobia and proprioception.
