Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the reoperation rate of fractures that have occurred at the neck of the femur that are treated with the CONQUEST FN Femoral Neck Fracture System. The CONQUEST FN Femoral Neck Fracture System is approved for use by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It consists of a stainless steel plate and up to three (3) screws intended to treat both non-displaced and displaced fractures to the femoral neck.
The primary objective is to examine if in patients with a dislocated femoral neck fracture who receive a total hip arthroplasty, direct anterior approach will give a better result in terms of mobilization, function and pain in the first weeks and months postoperatively, than direct lateral approach.
One of the most serious sequelae of femoral neck fractures (FNFs) is avascular necrosis (AVN) and nonunion, and this translates to a significant morbidity and mortality. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between the etiologies and management of FNFs in our institution and its relationship to the development of AVN or nonunion.
The femoral neck fracture is the most prevalent injuries which commonly encountered among older people with high mortality, morbidity and young fit healthy ones who subjected to high-energy trauma . Non-union or avascular necrosis of femoral neck fracture which lead to loss of labor capacity and death, is the most commonly occurred complication and results in considerable burden for family. The treatment is difficult and challenging, and to minimize the negative results such as limited mobilization or other complications, it is essential to take active prevention and appropriate treatment depending on fracture pattern and patients' characteristics as early as possible. However, current implant selections for femoral neck fractures remain a topic of greater interest and controversy, and vary substantially from each other .
This study will examine the efficacy of Liposomal Bupivacaine (Exparel) in hip fracture patients undergoing hip hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures through a posterior approach. Post-operative measures will be assessing pain, overall opiate use, delirium, time-to-ambulation and discharge status.
The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical effects of design changes from the use of three different IM nail designs in the management of extracapsular hip fractures.
Prospective observational (non-interventional) cohort study, multi-centric in 5 study Centers in Japan to collect short term clinical and radiological results of the cementless Bicontact® E stem in a standard patient population used in routine clinical practice
RATIONALE: Collecting and storing bone samples from patients with osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic fracture to quantitatively analyze the differentially expressed proteins to further explain the relationship between bone iron content and bone mineral density (BMD). PURPOSE: This research study is looking at changes of iron content and differentially expressed proteins in bone samples from patients with osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic. fracture.
This study is a multi-center, prospective, non-controlled post-market surveillance study. The primary objective of this study is to confirm the safety and performance of the CLS Brevius stem with Kinectiv technology by obtaining implant survivorship and clinical outcomes data for the commercially available stem.
The investigator wishes to see if it is possible to undertake a study comparing blood transfusion at two different levels of anaemia to see which is best for patients. All patients that present to hospital with a broken hip will be able to take part in the study. If they become anaemic during their treatment they will be allocated to either be transfused when their blood count is less that 9 or less than 7. In all patients, we will measure heart damage with a blood test that is very sensitive. The investigator will also collect data on the incidence of heart attacks and other complications.
