Clinical Trial Summary

This study is a multicenter pragmatic assessor blinded randomized and prospective clinical trial in which standard intramedullary nailing is compared with external ring fixator for patients with tibial shaft fractures.


Clinical Trial Description

This study is a multicenter pragmatic assessor blinded randomized and prospective clinical trial in which standard intramedullary nailing is compared with external ring fixator for patients with tibial shaft fractures. The primary aim of the project is to compare the one-year Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score - Sport (KOOS-Sport) after standard intramedullary nailing with external ring fixation for patients with tibial shaft fractures. The explorative aim is to report the effect of the two surgical procedures on the development of complications, time to bone union, pain reactions, muscle strength, activity of daily living and time to return to work. ;
