View clinical trials related to Proximal Humeral Fracture.
Filter by:Proximal humeral fractures are common especially in the elderly population. The majority of these fractures are minimally displaced and may be treated non-operatively. There is however a controversy about which fractures that need surgery and randomised trials have not been able to show a clinically important advantage in patient reported outcome measures for those operated. The trend is therefore that also displaced and comminute fractures are treated non-operatively. There is however very little scientific support for how the non-operative treatment should be designed and performed. Therefore this prospective multicenter study is aiming at investigating the benefit of a four week immobilisation orthosis as compared to early range of motion exercises for those patients not assigned for surgery one week after the trauma.
The Conventus CAGE™ PH (PH Cage) System Post-Approval Observational Data Collection Study (Study) is a single center, prospective, post-approval clinical study designed to collect device and procedure experience in everyday clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate preoperative objective measurements of patients with a proximal humerus fracture and operative objective measurements to determine if there is any effect to postoperative outcomes. Patients who were 18 years old or greater at the time of open reduction, internal fixation surgery were followed clinically and radiographically to determine best practice and optimal treatment and technique, risk and rate of complication, and postoperative outcomes.
This study is a multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, non-controlled post-market clinical follow-up study. The primary objective of this study is to confirm the safety and performance of the A.L.P.S. Proximal Humerus Plating System applied in proximal humerus fracture treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate reverse total shoulder arthroplasty patients preoperative objective measurements and operative objective measurements to determine if there is any effect to postoperative outcomes. Patients who were 18 years old or greater at the time of surgery were followed clinically and radiographically to determine best practice and optimal treatment and technique, risk and rate of complication, and postoperative outcomes.
The aim of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography (US) in detecting full-thickness (a lesion that extends through both the bursal and articular part of the tendon) rotator cuff tear in patients who have sustained a proximal humerus fracture, using operative examination as the golden standard.
The Nordic DeltaCon Trial is a prospective, single-blinded, randomized, controlled, multi-center and multi-national trial comparing reverse prosthesis and non-operative treatment in displaced proximal humerus fractures, in the elderly patients aged 65 to 85 years with displaced OTA/AO group B2 or C2 fractures (According to the new 2018 revision: AO/OTA (Orthopaedic Trauma Association) group 11-B1.1, 11-B1.2 and 11-C1.1, 11-C3.1. )
This study investigates the efficacy of physiotherapist-supervised training once per week during 10 weeks compared to home-based training during 10 weeks, after proksimal humerus fracture.
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.
Xin1 Humerus system is an X-ray-based tracking and navigation system designed to calculate the plate position and all required proximal screw lengths for proximal humerus plate fixation. The aim is to validate the system performance in a clinical context and test the surgical handling of the Xin1 marker in a hospital environment. 10 adults having sustained a proximal humerus fracture and are indicated for plate fixation osteosynthesis will be provided intraoperatively with the Xin1 marker. The system performance is evaluated retrospectively by post-processing the intraoperative X-ray images after surgery
