NCT ID: NCT02294747 Completed - Hip Fractures Clinical Trials

Trochanteric Hip Fractures (AO A2) SHS With or Without Trochanteric Stabilizing Plate - Rct Using RSA

Start date: November 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Trochanteric fractures represent about half of the hip fractures (with femoral neck fractures as the other half). Trochanteric hip fractures are almost always treated surgically with internal fixation of the fracture. However there is a debate ongoing for what is the appropriate implant to use. For stable fracture patterns the evidence seems to be in favor of the sliding hip screw, but for the unstable fractures it is more unclear whether to use a intramedullary nail or sliding hip screw with or without a lateral support plate (TSP). The role of the TSP in clinical use remains unclear and very little has been published about this, but it is believed to be an important contributor of stability to the sliding hip screw construct. We are planning a randomized controlled trial on trochanteric hip fractures to establish a method for implanting the tantalum markers, to observe the fracture healing process and to further investigate the role of the TSP.

NCT ID: NCT00873548 Completed - Clinical trials for Trochanteric Fractures

Treatment of Unstable Trochanteric Fractures With the Proximal Femoral Nail - Antirotation (PFNA)-Asia

Start date: November 2007
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The primary objective of this prospective multicenter study is to assess any fracture fixation complication and revision rates during the clinical use of the Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation Asia (PFNA Asia) for the treatment of unstable trochanteric fractures.

NCT ID: NCT00741182 Withdrawn - Shoulder Fractures Clinical Trials

Effect of PTH(1-34) Treatment on Fracture Healing in Vivo

Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to investigate, whether PTH(1-34) is able to promote fracture healing in postmenopausal women with fractures of the hip or shoulder.
