Filter by:A randomized control trial was conducted to compare the outcomes of conservative management for closed midshaft clavicular fractures using self-adjustable clavicular brace and standard clavicular brace.
The aim of this study is to investigate the short term functional and radiological outcomes of using double short titanium elastic nails as treatment of pediatric distal radius fractures.
Distal radius fractures are the most common fractures when looking at upper extremity fractures. The incidence of distal radius fractures is increasing day by day, and when looking at the databases of various countries, its annual prevalence reaches 70,000 in the UK and 640,000 in the USA. Most of these fractures are related to osteoporosis and require appropriate treatment. If not, it causes loss of work force, permanent disability, and limitation in daily activities. Fluidotherapy has also proven to be effective in reducing hand edema in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome and stroke, examining its effect on nerve conduction velocities, and warming hypothermic patients. Compared to these treatment methods, fluid therapy reduces both joint capsule and muscle temperature by 9°C and 5.7°C, respectively. has been reported to increase.
The objective of this Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up Study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Tripod-Fix in the treatment of vertebral compression fractures (VCF) resulting from osteoporosis.
Hip fractures in individuals aged 60 and above pose significant challenges in terms of morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. While countries like the United Kingdom and Australia have optimized their healthcare systems for timely management of hip fractures, the situation in Chile presents distinct challenges due to its mixed healthcare system. This study aims to assess survival rates following hip fractures in Chile and identify associated risk factors using national databases from 2012 to 2018. A comprehensive analysis of 35,520 patients revealed that factors such as age, type of health insurance, access to surgery, and treatment in public hospitals significantly influence mortality rates after hip fractures. The study found that patients with hip fractures experience lower 5-year survival rates compared to the general population, particularly when affiliated with public insurance and treated in public institutions. Modifiable factors like delayed surgery and prolonged hospital stays contribute to increased mortality rates. The findings underscore the urgent need for optimized public health policies and healthcare delivery systems to enhance outcomes for hip fracture patients in Chile.Hip fractures in individuals aged 60 and above pose significant challenges in terms of morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs.

Find the best way for fixation of fracture neck of femur in children either by cannulated screws or wagner's technique
OBJECTIVES: This study assesses the efficacy of dynamic hip screw (DHS) versus cannulated screws for femoral neck fractures, focusing on femoral neck shortening, avascular necrosis (AVN) incidence, and functional outcomes. METHODS: Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting: Academic Level I Trauma Center. Patient Selection Criteria: Included were patients with femoral neck fractures treated with DHS or cannulated screws, with follow-up data available. Outcome Measures and Comparisons: Main outcomes were femoral neck shortening, incidence of AVN, and Harris Hip Score (HHS) for functional assessment.
This study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tripod-Fix with Tecres Mendec® Spine HV System to treat subjects with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.
The research was conducted in randomized controlled experimental type between May 2022 and December2023. The universe of the research consisted of children and their parents who were diagnosed with a fracture, applied to the Orthopedic outpatient clinic and Emergency department of the Erzurum Ataturk University Health Research and Application Center and referred to the Orthopedic clinic, and decided to undergo a cast procedure for treatment. The sample of the research consisted of a total of 70 children and their parents, including 35 control groups and 35 kaleidoscope groups, who met the research criteria from this universe. The children in the kaleidoscope group were shown the kaleidoscope. No intervention other than routine application was applied to the control group. "Introductory Information Form", "Wong-Baker Facial Expressions Rating Scale and Child Fear Scale were used in the collection of data.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) approach with conventional methods in volar locking plate treatment for distal end radius fractures under the Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet (WALANT) technique. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the MIPO approach provide better pain control than the conventional approach of volar locking plate fixation in distal radius fractures under WALANT? Participants will be requested to record their pain on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), assess their functional scores, and undergo postoperative radiographic evaluations. Researchers will compare the MIPO group and the conventional group to determine the postoperative pain VAS scores, shedding light on the comparative effectiveness of the two approaches.
