Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of conservative treatment in treatment of patients over 75 years with impacted femoral neck fracture.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of task shifting from anesthesiologists to special trained nurses performing femoral nerve block (FNB) in patients with hip fracture in the emergency department (ED) at Vestfold Hospital Trust (VHT). A sample of nurses (n= 6) will perform ultrasound guided FNB in hip fracture patients (n=25) admitted to the ED at VHT. This cohort will be compared to another cohort of hip fracture patients (n=25). This cohort will follow standard of care where the femoral nerve block is often performed by anesthesiologists. The study is a prospective, controlled randomized trial.
An ICP monitor will be used to record blood flow/perfusion of the femoral head following fixation of femoral neck fractures. FDA approved device but not for this use.
This is the world's first national orthopedic randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving 19 out of 21 departments in Denmark. Each year, 7,000 patients suffer a hip fracture. This is a severe condition leading to 25% mortality after 1 year and 40% do not recover to the same functional level. The aim is to compare two surgical treatment methods (metal fixation versus artificial hip) in patients above 65 years with an undisplaced femoral neck fracture. The hypothesis is that even though an artificial hip is a larger surgical procedure than metal fixation of the broken bone, the artificial hip is more stable with less pain due the lack of a healing broken bone and therefore leads to a better and quicker mobilization after surgery. Better mobilization is one of the most important factors for decreasing mortality. We have chosen a pragmatic RCT design by using the local departmental implants. We hope that the knowledge from this study will therefore easily be implemented afterwards.
This is a retrospective and prospective, multi-center, non-comparative, post market clinical follow-up study involving orthopedic surgeons skilled in THA and experienced implanting the devices included in this study.
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether perioperative probiotics can reduce the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction and postoperative delirium.
Uncemented Hemiarthroplasty, Radiological Features Comparing Lateral Versus Anterolateral Approach. Comparing leg length discrepancy, femoral offset, valgus/varus position of the stem. Also is there a difference in heterotopic ossification at 12 months.
A registerbased RCT will investigate whether arthroplasty can decrease the reoperation rate compared to internal fixation for patients with an undisplaced femoral neck fracture (Garden I-II).
Our aim is to develop a strategy that reduces the risk of dislocations after total hip arthroplasty surgery performed due to femoral neck fracture. We therefore perform a register-nested, pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of dual mobility cups that were designed to minimize the risk of dislocation in the large and fragile group of elderly patients with femoral neck fractures.
Periprosthetic bone remodeling in femoral neck fracture patients: a 5-year follow up study addressing the influence of surgical approach on periprosthetic bone mineral density.
