NCT ID: NCT05943340 Not yet recruiting - Shoulder Pain Clinical Trials

Shoulder Proprioceptive Training During Immobilization of the Wrist

Start date: December 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare how a program of proprioceptive exercises for the shoulder could influence in pain, functionality, quality of life and shoulder muscle overload in people that are undergoing a immobilization period after a wrist fracture. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Study the relationship between shoulder muscle overload and shoulder pain. - Evaluate the effect of a proprioceptive program on pain and patient's satisfaction. Intervention will be: - Control group: participants of this group are not going to receive any protocol of exercises during the immobilization period. - Experimental group: participants of this group are going to receive a protocol of proprioceptive shoulder exercises to do during the immobilization period. Researchers will compare control and experimental group to see if a implantation of a proprioceptive program for the shoulder has benefits on pain, function, quality of life and muscle overload.

The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can orthopedic and trauma surgeons effectively predict which treatment would benefit a patient the most in terms of good outcome versus poor outcome (based on Δ PRWE) following casting or surgical treatment for displaced intra-articular distal radius fractures? - What are the perspectives of trauma surgeons and orthopedic surgeons on current literature? - What factors direct trauma surgeons and orthopedic surgeons to surgery?

NCT ID: NCT05925673 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Distal Radius Fracture

Early NMES and Mirror Therapy Interventions During Immobilization of Distal Radius Fracture

Start date: February 9, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Current practice for distal radius fractures is to begin rehabilitation after immobilization to remediate the resulting impairments. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation and mirror therapy are strategies that integrate neurological and musculoskeletal activation, that may be beneficial for mitigating the resulting impairments if applied during immobilization. The study aim is to determine whether neuromuscular stimulation and mirror therapy interventions can be implemented during immobilization for distal radius fractures to minimize the resulting impairments when compared to standard rehabilitation.

A Clinical Comparison of Patient-specific 3D Printed Splints Versus Conventional Splints in the Treatment of Distal Radius Fractures.

3DxSPLINT
Start date: October 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess patient reported outcome measures of adult patients who are diagnosed with a distal radius fracture and treated with a patient-specific 3D printed splint as compared to a control cohort. Patients receive routine immobilization procedure with a patient-specific 3D printed splint instead of the use of a conventional forearm splint after one week of conventional immobilization. The main study parameters are patient reported outcome measures related to comfort and satisfaction of the medical aid. This will be measured qualitatively with a semi-structured interview and quantitively using questionnaires.

The Effect of Two Different Protocol in Wrist Joint Limitation After Distal Radius End Fractures

Start date: May 30, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Distal radius fractures are among the most common fractures treated by hand therapists. These patients are most conservatively treated with closed reduction and cast immobilization. Since there is an immobilization process after both treatments, a limitation in the range of motion of the joint occurs in patients. For this reason, most of the treatment models applied in rehabilitation are about restoring the range of motion of the joint. In general, kinesiophobia occurs due to joint limitation and pain. Loss of proprioception occurs in patients with mobility and desire as a result of kinesiophobia. By investigating the techniques used in rehabilitation, the more correct one for the patient can be selected. There is no clear result in the literature about which of the application methods is more effective. The aim of the study is to compare the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) based stretching and Mulligan mobilization on pain, proprioception (joint position sense), wrist functionality, muscle strength and kinesiophobia in patients with joint limitation after distal radius end fracture. Thirty-four individuals aged 18-65 who were referred to a physiotherapy and rehabilitation program after distal radius end fracture will be included in the study. Individuals will be randomized into two groups. In the study, algometer and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the pain intensity of the patients, universal goniometer for the evaluation of the forearm and wrist joint range of motion, microFET®2 Digital Handheld Dynamometer for the evaluation of the strength of the wrist flexor and extensor muscles, ulnar and radial deviation muscles. device will be used. The functional use of the wrist of the individuals is using the patient-based wrist assessment questionnaire (Patient Graded Wrist Assessment PRWE), the sense of attachment position for proprioception, and the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS) for kinesiophobia. In our study, an exercise program will be applied with a physiotherapist for 6 weeks, 2 days a week, 45 minutes. To the first group; In addition to the traditional treatment, Mulligan mobilization will be applied, and the second group will be applied to the PNF techniques, 'hold-relax' in addition to the traditional treatment. It can be considerable that both techniques applied in our study may have positive effects on pain, kinesiophobia and proprioception.

Vitamin c Supplementation in the Prevention of CRPS Following Distal Radius Fractures

Start date: June 15, 2023
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome type 1 is a pain syndrome that develops after a trauma, surgery, or idiopathically. The incidence after distal radius varies significantly in the literature. There are known contributing factors, such as the female sex but no effective treatment or prophylactic method. This study aims to investigate vitamin C's efficacy in preventing CRPS type 1 following distal radius fractures, as the literature states that it might play a role in prophylaxis.

Is Casting of Displaced Pediatric Distal Forearm Fractures Non-inferior to Reduction in General Anesthesia?

CASTING
Start date: September 7, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Treatment of displaced distal forearm fractures (DFF) in children have traditionally been closed reduction and pin fixation, although they might heal and remodel without manipulation, with no functional impairment. No randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have been published comparing the patient-reported functional outcome after non-surgical and surgical treatment of displaced DFF in children. This is a multicentre RCT. The aim of the trial is to investigate the patient-reported functional outcome after non-surgical treatment of displaced distal forearm fractures (DFF) in children. We will include 44 children aged 4-10 years with a displaced DFF. They will be offered inclusion, if the on-duty orthopedic surgeon finds indication for surgical intervention. If the parents/guardians consent to participate, the children will be allocated equally to non-surgical treatment (intervention) or surgical treatment of surgeon's choice (comparator). We will follow the children during one year, where they will be seen after 4 weeks, 3, 6 and 12 months. The primary outcome is the between-group difference in 12 months Quick Disabilities Arm Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) score.

NCT ID: NCT05684042 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Distal Radius Fracture

Fracture Registry University Hospital Basel

Start date: June 9, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The primary goal of this research project is to measure the accuracy of the classifications of the distal radius fracture in the fracture database. The evaluation of the extracted data analyzes the validity of the fracture classifications that the medical staff carry out in everyday clinical practice. Endpoint of this project is the reclassification of the selected fractures by an in-house group of experts in order to be able to carry out a subsequent statistical evaluation. It is analyzed whether there are significant deviations between the classifications of the expert group and the fracture database.
