Filter by:Pelvic fractures are severe injuries which require advanced orthopedic surgical skills to treat. On the other hand, abdominal injuries are severe injuries, which might require quick general surgical treatment. The combination of both injuries is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons, as the abdominal injury might lead to a delayed surgical treatment of the pelvic fracture. Whether an associated abdominal injury influences the quality of care of pelvic fractures, is aim of this registry study.
Spica casting is the current standard of care when treating pediatric diaphyseal femur fractures in the 0-5 year age group. A study conducted by Kramer et al. suggests there are both clinical and financial benefits of functional bracing when compared to spica casting. To this date there have been no prospective trials to evaluate these two treatment options. The investigators plan to conduct a multi-center randomized-control trial that will compare the subjective, objective and financial aspects of functional bracing and spica casting for pediatric femur fractures.
This study is a multicenter pragmatic assessor blinded randomized and prospective clinical trial in which standard intramedullary nailing is compared with external ring fixator for patients with tibial shaft fractures.
This cohort study investigates radiological and clinical outcome after screw osteosynthesis of radial head fractures with associated injuries (such as rupture of the interosseous membrane and collateral ligaments). Interpretation of radiographs 3 and 9 months post- surgery and patient surveys will be analyzed.
This study will be a prospective, case - control trial looking at the use of a previously FDA approved device made by Stryker, a distal targeting system that eases the distal targeting of screws in cephalomedullary nails in hip and femoral shaft fractures. Patients who consent to participate in the study will either be in the control or device arm of the study depending on their surgeon.
The aim of this project is to build an international community of centers of excellence in the care for Fragile Hip Fracture Rapid Recovery patients. These centers of excellence will benchmark and share their expertise and experiences based on clinical and managerial data. In project is designed in five different phase: Phase 1: literature review: identifying relevant key interventions and indicators Phase 2: expert panel: expert panel for teams, management and policy makers Phase 3: data collection: collection managerial data through retrospective patient record analysis on clinical indicators Phase 4: statistical data analysis: data input, validation and statistical analysis Phase 5: feedback and knowledge sharing: feedback report with anonymous benchmarking and knowledge sharing of the results.
The goal of this study is to perform a randomized clinical trial to assess the effects of vitamin C versus placebo on wound healing in mandibular fracture patients.
The study would like show that patients who follow a protocol with GMI are less probability to develop CRPS
Tibial shaft fracture is a common injury worldwide. Their treatment, prognosis, and outcome are determined by the mechanism of injury, presence of communition, soft tissue injury and displacement. In developing countries, lack of education,socioeconomic backgrounds, delay in presentation and appropriate planning for surgery add further to complicate the situation and may end in delayed union, non-union, multiple surgeries and ultimate results in increased morbidity. This study was conducted to determine the outcome of open tibia shaft fracture treated with Ilizarov or AO External Fixator.
The study design is a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing extended elbow and flexed elbow casting. This study design will provide the highest quality evidence to investigate our primary hypothesis that extended elbow casting for proximal both bone forearm fractures will result in less loss of fracture alignment. The study population eligible for screening will be patients with open growth plates and both bone forearm fractures.
