Filter by:Many approaches to the surgical treatment of OF-P have been tried, but no one method has stood out as particularly successful. The placement of three implants, including implants that could minimise motion in the sacroiliac joint through early fixation and long-term fusion of the sacroiliac joint, can prevent micromotion in the fracture and thereby improve the clinical outcome of OF-Ps. The iFuse-3D implant was shown to be safe and effective for chronic sacroiliac pain in non-osteoporotic patients. The primary aim is to assess the proportion of patients operated on using iFuse-3D in conjunction with transiliac-transsacral screws who regain pre-fracture mobility by the time of hospital discharge.
The goal of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of a blind fascia iliaca compartment block to an ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block in patients that present to the emergency department with hip fractures.
This is a multicenter, prospective, Post-market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) Study on the ZNN Bactiguard Cephalomedullary Nails. The objective of this study is to collect data confirming the safety, performance, and clinical benefit of the study device and instrumentation when used for the temporary internal fixation and stabilization of trochanteric, sub-trochanteric or shaft femoral fractures and osteotomies. This is a CE-marked device already available on the market and the aim of the study is to comply with the post-market surveillance requirements.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot trial to determine the feasibility, safety, and potential efficacy of targeting MAP within the limits of cerebral autoregulation during surgery compared with usual care.
Elderly patients with hip fracture are older and have a high incidence of perioperative complications. the postoperative recovery of elderly patients with hip fracture is affected by hemodynamic instability and pain caused by fracture. S-ketamine is the S-isomer of ketamine. Compared with traditional ketamine, S-ketamine has stronger analgesic effect and fewer adverse reactions of nervous system. The parasympathetic effect of S-ketamine can antagonize the circulatory inhibition of propofol and make the hemodynamics more stable in elderly patients with hip fracture.Iliac fascial space block (fasciailiacacompartmentblock,FICB) mainly depends on local anesthetics spreading to the femoral nerve, lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and obturator nerve in the iliofascial space to achieve analgesia in its dominant area. Ultrasound-guided iliac fascial space block can effectively reduce the amount of anesthetics and has shorter puncture time and fewer complications. It can more effectively reduce the perioperative pain of elderly patients with hip fracture.
Surgical treatment of hip fracture may be complicated by acute kidney injury. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the investigators can find a better biomarker than creatinine to recognize this problem at an earlier stage.
Bone marrow samples will be collected from patients undergoing hip arthroplasty surgery. Blood and bone marrow samples will be used for metabolic profiling and analysis of relevant CHIP mutations. Combined single-cell transcriptomics and mutation-specific single-cell genotyping (biotin-PCR using mutation-targeted primers followed by sequencing) will subsequently be performed. The gene expression profile of wildtype and mutant hematopoietic stem cells will be compared, performing both broad gene set enrichment analysis and targeted analysis of metabolic pathways.
Several studies have shown that frailty can be used as a marker for risk of adverse outcomes in elderly patients such as falls, disability, hospitalization, mortality, and can be used to predict patient clinical outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine whether preoperative frailty can be used as a diagnostic and predictive factor for postoperative delirium in elderly patients with hip fracture.
The objective of this retrospective enrollment and prospective follow-up study is to confirm safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Echo FX Stem with the RingLoc Bipolar Acetabular Cup and Femoral Head in hip hemiarthroplasty (implants and instrumentation) at a minimum of 10 years follow-up. All available retrospective data will be collected from each patient and a prospective aspect to the study will be necessary to reach the 10-year time point.
Recent research has demonstrated that a hemiarthroplasty (replacement of half the joint) has lower rates of post-surgical complications than a total hip arthroplasty does. However, surgeons tend to vary in their approach to hemiarthroplasties. The lateral approach, which involves making an incision at the side of the patient's hip, requires surgeons to cut through the muscle to access the hip, which has been associated with greater muscle damage and slower rates of recovery. On the other hand, the direct anterior approach does not require the cutting of the patient's muscle and is therefore associated with minimal muscle damage and faster rates of recovery. This study will aim to assess the impact of the surgical approach (Direct Anterior Approach vs. Lateral approach) during hemiarthroplasty on patients' short-term mobility, quality of life, function, pain, and safety parameters.
