NCT ID: NCT05735561 Completed - Avascular Necrosis Clinical Trials

Proximal Humerus Fracture Dislocation Direction and Avascular Necrosis

PHF-D
Start date: February 15, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of the study is to see if there is a connection between a proximal humerus fracture dislocation direction and the likelihood of developing avascular necrosis. Utilizing a retrospective cohort from the last ten years we hope to bring consenting patients back for a single visit to have x-rays and complete patient reported outcome measures to assess for evidence of avascular necrosis.

NCT ID: NCT05215613 Completed - Clinical trials for Proximal Humeral Fracture

PMCF Study on the Safety, Performance and Clinical Benefits Data of the Zimmer® Plates and Screws System

Start date: March 15, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study is a monocentric, retro- and prospective, non-randomized, non-controlled and consecutive series post-market study. The purpose of this study is to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the Zimmer® Plates and Screws System (implants and instrumentation) when used to stabilize diaphyseal, proximal humerus and proximal tibia fractures. The primary objective is the assessment of performance by analyzing fracture healing. The secondary objectives are the assessment of safety by recording and analyzing the incidence and frequency of complications and adverse events. Relation of the events to implant, instrumentation and/or procedure should be specified. Subjects' outcomes will also be assessed.

Surgical Fixation and Non-Operative Management Outcomes in Proximal Humerus Fractures

Start date: March 12, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The management of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) remains a significant challenge in orthopaedics. The acute treatment options for PHFs are numerous and are typically guided by the fracture pattern and functional demands of the patients. The most commonly used methods include non-operative management with a sling or surgical fixation. Although non-surgical treatment is a reasonable treatment option for the majority of humerus fractures, there is an increasing interest in surgical intervention. There are no evidence-based treatment recommendations, thus permitting large local variation in treatment preferences. There are a number of studies in the literature about how outcome measures of the patients after PHFs management change, but these results generally compare functional results before and after treatment. Misra et al. stated that conservatively managed patients with PHFs have more pain and a poorer range of motion than those managed by either fixation or arthroplasty, while cochrane review stated that surgery is not superior to nonsurgical treatment in most proximal humerus fractures. Jayakumar et al. determined that kinesiophobia is one of the strongest predictors of functional limitation and recovery from a PHF is enhanced by overcoming fears of movement or reinjury within a week after injury. There is no clear knowledge regarding how the surgical or conservative management used in the management of PHF affects the early results of assessment parameters. The aim of this study was to compare early results of surgical fixation versus non-operative management outcomes in patients with proximal humerus fractures.

NCT ID: NCT04675879 Completed - Clinical trials for Proximal Humeral Fracture

Clinical and Radiological Results of Conservative Treatments in Proximal Humerus Fractures.

Start date: December 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In the investigators' prospective randomized study, the investigator will investigate the effect of different bandage types on functional and radiological results of proximal humerus fractures over 18 years of age, for whom conservative treatment is decided. In recent studies, it has been shown that surgical treatment in proximal humerus fractures has a high complication rate and is also not superior to conservative treatments in terms of functional results. Therefore, the importance of conservative treatment is increasing day by day in this group of fractures, especially in elderly patients with high risk for surgery. In these studies in the literature, the method in conservative treatment is not clearly specified, and the investigator will apply 3 different bandages to adjust the rotation of the shoulder in 3 different ways during the investigators' conservative treatment. The investigator will compare functional and radiological results between these groups.

NCT ID: NCT04056351 Completed - Clinical trials for Proximal Humeral Fracture

A Research Study to Understand and Predict the Failure of Shoulder Fracture Fixations Using Computer Simulations

PHILOS-SIM
Start date: August 2, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Fractures of the shoulder, the so-called proximal humeral fractures, can be treated with locking plates that have shown good results in clinical practice, but complications can occur. In order to further improve the treatment of proximal humerus fractures and decrease the rate of fixation failures, further research is necessary. As a first step, the reasons for potential implant failures need to be understood. This study has been initiated by scientists at the AO Research Institute Davos (ARI), Switzerland, which is the research center of the AO Foundation (www.aofoundation.org), an international non-profit organization led by surgeons specialized in fractures such as these. Researchers at the ARI have been developing a computational simulation tool to predict fixation failure and demonstrated its efficiency in laboratory conditions. This clinical study has been organised to validate this tool using patient data, by comparing the risk of mechanical failure predicted by the computer simulated model with the clinically observed fixation failure. In future, this computer simulation tool is expected to help surgeons to select the best fixation for a given patient and to develop improved implants.

NCT ID: NCT03919422 Completed - Clinical trials for Proximal Humeral Fracture

Paravertebral Block for Proximal Humeral Fracture Surgery

Start date: May 5, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluates the effects of T2 paravertebral block block improving interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus block on the relief of pain intensity during elderly proximal humerus fracture fixation surgery. The brachial plexus and cervical plexus block(IC block) will be performed in half of participants, while the T2 paravertebral block combined with IC block will be performed in the other half.

Evidence Based Algorithm for Proximal Humerus Fractures

Start date: January 1, 2014
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Proximal humerus fractures are particularly frequent injuries and represent 6% of all fractures with an overall incidence of 63/100.000 in human. The goal is to assess our institutional evidence based algorithm for treatment of proximal humeral fractures. Objective(s): 1. Test the algorithm in terms of clinical applicability and clinical outcome 2. Compare general outcome and general complication/revision rate to the literature. Inclusion / Exclusion criteria: Inclusion: All patients with an acute proximal humeral fracture (not older than 48 hours) admitted to our institution later than 1.1.2014. Exclusion: Multilevel and pathological fractures are excluded. Terminally ill patients and those not being able, or willing to sing the informed consent. Project Centre(s): Single-centre. Statistical Considerations: Standard descriptive statistics will be performed using R-statistics program. Considering the population of 160 patients, we will be able to detect differences in proportions as low as 0.15 with power 82% and alpha = 0.05. Other methodological Considerations: Terms applicability of a treatment protocol and adhesion to protocol are not well defined for decision making in orthopaedic surgery.
