Filter by:The goal of this prospective observational study is to compare pain control strategies in children with femur fractures. Researchers will compare ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment nerve block to IV pain control alone. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment nerve blocks as effective as IV pain control in controlling pain? - Do patients who receive an ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment nerve block require less opioid pain medication than those that don't? Participants will be asked to provide pain scores during their Emergency Department stay. Participants parents will be asked to complete a brief survey at the time their child is leaving the Emergency Department.
The goal of this randomized pilot study is to assess feasibility of the trial and to collect information to inform the design of a definitive trial. Adult patients ages 60 years or older with a low-energy minimally displaced femoral neck fracture (FNF) treated with surgery will be eligible to participate in the study. Patients will be randomized to one of two treatment groups, hip arthroplasty or internal fixation. Participants will be followed for 1 year.
The study is a monocentric, retrospective, non-randomized, non-controlled and consecutive series post-market study. The purpose of this study is to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the XtraFix® Small External Fixation System (implants and instrumentation) when used to treat long bone fractures. The primary objective is the assessment of performance by analyzing fracture healing. The secondary objectives are the assessment of safety by recording and analyzing the incidence and frequency of complications and adverse events. Relation of the events to implant, instrumentation and/or procedure should be specified. Subjects' outcomes will also be assessed.
The goal of this surgeon survey is to find out if orthopedic and trauma surgeons can predict outcomes in older adults with distal radius fractures. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can orthopedic and trauma surgeons effectively predict which treatment would benefit a patient the most in terms of good outcome versus poor outcome (based on Δ PRWE) following casting or surgical treatment for displaced intra-articular distal radius fractures? - What are the perspectives of trauma surgeons and orthopedic surgeons on current literature? - What factors direct trauma surgeons and orthopedic surgeons to surgery?
the goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the analgesic effect of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block in elderly patients with hip fractures undergoing hip surgery . and to evaluate its effect in reducing post operative complications .
Ultrasound tool in bones trauma is underused in the emergency department of the University Hospital of Saint-Etienne. This prospective non randomized monocentric study will measure how much this non irradiant method of diagnostic is sensible and specific in long bones fractures, and will evaluate it advantages versus conventional X ray examination.
Men sustain over one-third of osteoporosis-related fractures worldwide. The burden of osteoporotic fractures in older men is substantial, and men suffer significantly worse fracture-related outcomes than women. Following a fracture, men sustain greater rates of subsequent fractures, loss of autonomy, and mortality than women and the imminent risk of re-fracture is several times higher in men than in women. Functional mobility, known to predict falls and fractures, is also notably worse in men following a fracture. In the fiscal year 2007-08, the overall annual costs of osteoporosis in Canadian men was evaluated to be $910 million. Osteoporosis is primarily considered a disease of older women, and men are remarkably under-evaluated and under-treated for it. Recognition of sex and gender influences on skeletal health in men has been very slow; akin to the gap in cardiovascular diseases, where women are far less likely to receive guideline-recommended investigations and treatment. Over 85% of Canadian men who suffer from fragility fractures do not receive osteoporosis screening and/or treatment strategies. The existence of this care gap in men underscores our current struggle to overcome important barriers including: 1) men's lack of awareness of the critical impact of osteoporosis and fractures on several aspects of their lives, and of the benefits of treatment; and 2) the absence of comprehensive and accessible treatments tailored to men. Informed by the Knowledge-to-Action framework, we aim to address these barriers by adapting interventions with proven efficacy to engage men at high fracture risk in health behaviour change. The current protocol is for a pilot RCT to determine the feasibility of recruitment and retention, adherence to, and acceptability of the virtually-delivered fracture prevention intervention only. Our long-term goal is to conduct a large pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) to address the research question: In older adults at high risk for fractures who self-identify as men, does anti-osteoporosis pharmacotherapy in conjunction with a virtually-delivered intervention that includes a gender-tailored strength training and balance based exercise program and nutritional counselling, improve functional mobility compared to anti-osteoporosis pharmacotherapy in conjunction with an attention control intervention.
Current practice for distal radius fractures is to begin rehabilitation after immobilization to remediate the resulting impairments. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation and mirror therapy are strategies that integrate neurological and musculoskeletal activation, that may be beneficial for mitigating the resulting impairments if applied during immobilization. The study aim is to determine whether neuromuscular stimulation and mirror therapy interventions can be implemented during immobilization for distal radius fractures to minimize the resulting impairments when compared to standard rehabilitation.
The aim of the study is to investigate postoperative pain relief for patients undergoing surgical treatment of proximal femoral fracture using intrathecal administration of morphine.
The purpose of this study is to reveal the effectiveness and safety of integrative Korean medicine for Acute Vertebral Compression Fracture in-patients by observing inpatients treated with integrative Korean medicine. This study is a retrospective observational study. The subjects for study are patients diagnosed with Acute Vertebral Compression Fracture and who have been admitted to four Jaseng Hospital of Korean medicine (Gangnam, Bucheon, Daejeon, and Haeundae) for 2016.04.01-2022.06.30. Medical records of selected patients will be analyzed, and telephone surveys will be conducted for each patient. The survey questions are Numeric ratinc scale (NRS), Oswestry Disability Index(ODI), quality of life, and Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC), etc.
