Filter by:The primary objective of this study will be the collection of preliminary clinical evidence to indicate that Cast21 Short Arm Product is no worse than the current standard of care arm immobilization devices in pediatric patients. A secondary objective will be to characterize the clinician and patient experience with the Cast21 Short Arm Product.
Vitamin D supplements are widely promoted for bone health. Both vitamin D and vitamin K are important for deposition of calcium in bone, but little is known about the relationship of vitamin K status and bone health.
The assessment consists in comparing the osteosynthesis plate with minimally invasive technique versus open reduction and internal fixation. The aim of study is to compare (period of bandage, efficacy, safety), these two types of surgical technique by using a prospective, randomized analysis.
This is a study designed to see if a low dose of Lithium treatment, taken for 2 weeks, can improve fracture healing and improve patients' function and productivity.
Fractures of the acetabulum and pelvis are serious injuries to vital prognostic can play in cases of severe bleeding. In all cases the functional is a major issue with a potential reach of walking ability and maintaining the seated and standing positions. The treatment of such lesions requires management to a specialist, or the ability to use such centers for advice or transferring patients. This organization was recommended after the symposium of the French Society of Orthopedic Surgery (SOFCOT) in 2009. With the aging population, the incidence and clinical features of these fractures have evolved to worsening the functional prognosis. Club Basin acetabulum, body SOFCOT, wants to achieve an observational study assessing needs and practices at national and regional level. The long-term objective is to propose a regional organization of care of these patients in order to reduce morbidity and mortality associated.
To include patient after traumatic (calcaneal) fractures for this study. They can be included to analyze gait with the OFM foot model, a non invasis model. Patient will be invited to the movement laboratory of the MUMC. Markers will be detached with dubble sided tape on anatomical points. After that gait will be recorded with infra-red camera's and an animation model will be formed. With this model further analysis can be made to range of motion between different segement of the foot. These results will be compared with patient with an arthrodesis, healthy subjects, futher questionnaires, physical examination and radiographic findings will be correlated.
Opioid pain medications such as morphine and dilaudid are commonly used in emergency departments to treat pain in patients. Physicians are familiar with the side effects of these medications; the most concerning of which is slowing or stopping a patient's breathing, as well as dangerously lowering their blood pressure. An alternative medication is ketamine. This medication is also commonly used in the emergency department, although it is typically used to help sedate patients for uncomfortable procedures. Ketamine has also been used for pain control, but in a much lower dosage that does not sedate patients. When used for analgesia, it has typically been administered in combination with opioid pain medications. To date, there is no study that looks at the effectiveness and safety of using a low dose ketamine alone in comparison to the use of morphine. The purpose of this study is to measure how well low-dose ketamine treats pain compared to morphine and to look at how often serious side effects are seen with each medication.
sports accidents and incidents are relatively frequent. We hypothesize that the pursuit of good hydration, including days without training or competition could prevent their occurrence
The purpose of this study is to determine whether cognitive disorders are a risk factor for a fracture after a fall independently of a bone fragility.
This study aim to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of mandibular condylar fractures in pediatrics treated simply with a mandibular manipulation technique accompanied by mouth opening training.
