Comparative Study Between Single and Double Limb Hip Spica Cast in Fracture Femur in Young Children

Femur Fracture Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparative Study Between Single and Double Limb Hip Spica Cast in Fracture Femur in Young Children

Clinical Trial Summary

We performed a randomized control trial including 84 children aged two to six years who presented with femoral fractures. They were randomized into two groups; the first was managed by single limb cast fixation (42 patients), and the second was managed by double limb cast fixation (42 patients). The primary outcomes were postprocedural functional outcomes and parents' satisfaction, while the secondary outcomes were the rates of complications.

Clinical Trial Description

Femoral fractures are frequent in children and compose 1% to 2% of all pediatric fractures. Conservative management is associated with good results, whether by single or double-limb cast fixations. We aim to compare both procedures regarding functional outcomes, complications, and parents' satisfaction. Eighty-four children were eligible to be included in our study; 42 underwent single limb spica casts, and the other 42 patients underwent double limb spica casts. Both groups had similar baseline characteristics like age, gender, fracture side, and fracture classification. ;
