Filter by:The main aim is to assess the effectiveness of introducing a standardized intervention program for treatment of patients with a fragility fracture as measured by changes in the fracture rates and the mortality.
This study is designed to answer whether minimal invasive vessel clotting (angioembolization) or open surgery (retroperitoneal packing) is more effective for pelvic fractures with massive bleeding. Patients admitted at daytime (7am-5pm) are treated with angioembolization while patients admitted at nighttime (5pm to 7am) are treated with open surgery.
The objective of this study is to develop methods for using forces measured on circular external fixators to predict the state of individual patient's healing of severe tibial fractures and defects.
Intimate partner violence (IPV), also known as domestic abuse, is a leading cause of non-fatal injury in women worldwide. 1 in 6 women attending surgical fracture clinics have a history of IPV in the past year. Given the high prevalence and costs associated with IPV, there is a need to identify health outcomes associated with IPV, the incidence of new and worsening cases of IPV, and resource use among IPV victims. This prospective cohort study of women with fractures and dislocations will assess differences in injury-related outcomes (time to fracture healing, injury-related complications, and return to pre-injury function) between abused and non-abused women. This study will also determine whether a musculoskeletal injury can lead to new or worsening abuse by an intimate partner and how patterns of IPV change over time following musculoskeletal injuries.Finally, the proposed study will also inform the feasibility of a larger multinational cohort study.
The purpose of this study is to collect safety and performance data on the use of the Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System (PBSS) when used to provide stabilization and alignment for the treatment of acute humerus fractures.
The patients with distal radius fracture treated with immobilization (cast) and percutaneous pinning it will be to able to participate in this randomized trial. The investigators will be able to determine if the laser acupuncture is a good therapy for the rehabilitation in this type of patients. And if they are more comfortable to begin his rehabilitation exercise after the application of this therapy
This single center, randomized control, double blind trial will prospectively examine the feasibility of intranasal, sub-dissociative (IN) ketamine versus intranasal fentanyl for pain control in the pediatric emergency department setting. The investigators hypothesize that IN ketamine may provide a safe and effective alternative to IN fentanyl for children with suspected, isolated extremity fractures. Eighty children ages 3-17 years with a suspected, isolated extremity fracture that requires analgesia will be randomized to receive IN ketamine or IN fentanyl upon presentation to the emergency department and will be followed for 2 hours for efficacy and 6 hours for safety.
The primary objective is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of TRV130 for moderate to severe acute pain in patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with a suspected/known, unilateral, closed long bone fracture.
- Analysis of patient data and computed tomography scan of polytraumatized patients thoracic spine fractures - A concomitant sternal fracture was identified an indicator for an unstable thoracic spine fracture
This study evaluates the effect of 10% magnesium sulfate in the rehabilitation of the wrist mobility in patients with distal radius fracture treated with percutaneous pinning and plaster
