Filter by:Clavicle fractures are common among young people, generally as a consequence of car accidents, bike falls, and contact sports injuries. 15-20% of all clavicle fractures involve the lateral end of the bone. Thus, the distal clavicle fractures, in particular, have a high nonunion rate ranging from 21-33% when treated non-operatively, underscoring the usual advice for operative treatment. While significant research has been conducted on clavicle fractures and their treatment options, no definitive guidelines or optimal approaches have been established. Hence, this study aimed at assessing the clinical and radiological results of the two highly used surgical techniques, the Tension Band Wiring (TBW) and Hook plate ones, in addition to investigating the associated functional recovery and outcomes.
A randomized control trial was conducted to compare the outcomes of conservative management for closed midshaft clavicular fractures using self-adjustable clavicular brace and standard clavicular brace.
Clavicular fractures represent a common occurrence often necessitating effective pain management strategies, particularly following surgical interventions. This study involved a cohort of five patients who underwent clavicular fracture surgery under general anesthesia. A novel analgesic approach combining two distinct nerve block techniques-Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block (SPSIPB) and Clavipectoral Plane Block (CPB)-was employed for postoperative pain control. The procedural methodology encompassed the administration of SPSIPB preceding anesthesia induction, followed by CPB subsequent to induction. SPSIPB targeted specific neural regions responsible for sensory blockade within the innervation of the clavicular skin, whereas CPB focused on the clavipectoral fascia. Standard anesthesia protocols were utilized, and postoperative pain levels were evaluated using Numeric Rating Scores (NRS).
The clavicle is frequently fractured bone. regional anesthesia (RA) for clavicle surgery is always challenging due t complex innervation from the two plexuses (cervical and brachial). various RA techniques described for clavicle surgery include plexus blocks, fascial plane blocks,and truncal blocks.
Clavicle fractures are a common orthopedic injury and make up 2.6%-5% of all fractures. Despite the benefits of operative management, post-operative chest wall paresthesia is a well-known complication among surgeons and is well described in the literature. Studies reporting on the natural history of post-operative paresthesia report an incidence of chest wall numbness anywhere from 10-80% and this is attributed to iatrogenic injury of the branches of the supraclavicular nerve that provide sensation over the clavicle, anteromedial shoulder and proximal chest. While this may seem like an easy complication to avoid, anatomic studies give insight into the complex and unpredictable branching of the supraclavicular nerve. The aim of this study was to compare the area (cm2) and change in size over time of post-operative paresthesia (includes hypesthesia and dysesthesia) following ORIF of displaced clavicle fractures between nerve-sacrificing and nerve-preserving procedures.
This prospective, multi-centre study aims to determine clinical, radiographic, and patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) following surgical fixation of displaced mid-diaphyseal clavicle fractures and to compare implant removal rates between techniques within 2-years of the procedure.
The immobilization process after an operation or injury in the upper extremity causes a loss of muscle mass and strength of 0.2% and 1.3% per day, respectively. Currently, the use of cross-education, which is unilateral training in the uninjured limb, during the immobilization period, is expanding, demonstrating a magnitude of strength gain in the immobilized limb from 8% to 77% of the mean of strength of the trained limb. Despite the evidenced benefits of cross-education in unilateral injuries such as distal radius fracture, anterior cruciate ligament injury, and knee replacement, very little is known about this effect in shoulder immobilization after clavicle fracture.
The goal of this mutlicenter quasi-randomized observational cohort study is to compare single vs double plating in patients with a midshaft clavicle fracture. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. Does low profile double plating of midshaft clavicle fractures with one 2.0mm plate and a second 2.4 or 2.7 mm plate lead to a lower rate of re-intervention when compared to either single superior or single anterior plating?
The goals of this multi-site study are to evaluate the union rate, patient satisfaction, and functional results of the Section 510(K) approved Anser Clavicle Pin in a prospective 50 patient clinical trial in a U.S. population.
A commercially available product clinical study which aims to confirm the safety, performance, and clinical benefits to the patient of the ALPS Clavicle Plating system for both the implant itself and the instrumentation used during surgery.
