Filter by:The study will be conducted with volunteer patients who are followed up by the Orthopedics and Traumatology Service of Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University Training and Research Hospital and who have undergone proximal femur fracture surgery and meet the study criteria. It is aimed to investigate the mid-term efficacy of relaxation exercises and classical massage of the sole of the foot applied in addition to the conventional physiotherapy program in the postoperative in-hospital period in patients with proximal femur fracture.
The study will test the hypothesis, that the use of medial wedge insoles in people participating in comprehensive rehabilitation between 1-6 months after total hip replacement, and not having a varus deformity of the knee or symptomatic arthrosis of the medial knee compartment, will improve patient's functioning, the symmetry of gait and stance compared to persons using sham insoles. The participants will undergo a 6-week program of in-patient rehabilitation aimed at: pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic pain management, improvement of vascular function, cardiopulmonary function, functions of skeletal muscles, range of motion and stability of peripheral joints, gait function, body position. The rehabilitation program will also address individual needs with psychotherapy and vocational therapy. The study will help to identify correlations between gait parameter change and functional improvement during the rehabilitation following THR. Study participants will be provided with individually made corrective medial wedge insoles or sham insoles and instructed to use them during gait training and everyday activities. Functional parameters will be examined at the study entry, at the end of 6 weeks of intervention, and 6 weeks following discharge.
The present study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a pharmacological nursing educational intervention (EFE) with "Myplan Aplication" about the patient's experience, adherence to pharmacological treatment, and positive mental health of patients with femur fracture.
Comparing functional outcomes of hemiarthroplasty (prosthetic joint) versus cephalo-medullary fixation ( proximal femoral intramedullary nail) in the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric femoral fractures (proximal femur fractures) in elderly people above 60 years old.
Prospective registry and retrospective data collection study to assess the efficacy and safety of Vivigen Cellular Bone Matrix (Vivigen) in orthopaedic trauma patients who require bone grafting in the acute, delayed, non-union fracture as well as use in fusion procedure settings.
Hip fracture posed a major challenge to the health care system, with the one-year mortality of hip fracture reported as being approximately 20%. Perioperative haemoglobin level was associated with functional level of the patient and even mortality. Different methods for administration of tranexamic acid had been described. It was well established that systemic administration of tranexamic acid could reduce perioperative blood loss and transfusion rate. Topical administration had been shown to decrease blood loss and transfusion rate. The objective of our study is to investigate the hypothesis that tranexamic acid will reduce blood loss and transfusion rate in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.
Goal of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of 3D computer-planned fracture fixation with patient-specific instruments for clavicle, upper extremity, lower extremity and pelvis fractures compared with the standard procedure of fracture fixation.
