Filter by:Proximal femoral fractures commonly occur above 50 years and regional anesthesia could be a complement in the perioperative treatment of the patients. The use of pericapsular nerve group block (PENG Block) has been proposed to reduce pain. However, no studies have explored the efficient of the systemic analgesia associated with PENG Block in functional limitation in the preoperative period. In this sense, the main goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of systemic analgesia associated with PENG Block in patients with proximal femoral fractures in the period preceding the surgical procedure.
The objective of this study is to examine if functional high-density, high-volume chair rise training is feasible for increasing lower extremity strength without causing excessive hip pain during execution in patients with hip fracture following a municipality -based outpatient rehabilitation program. Feasibility criteria is defined as: 1) hip fracture-related pain might increase during the exercise programme, but not persistent after each session. 2) adherence to the program must be 75% or more. 3) Less than 20% drop-outs due to pain and/or discomfort during training.
Assessment of the role of augmented fixation of fragility fracture pelvis in improving functional outcome as a primary outcome and improving union and decreasing mortality and complications as secondary outcomes at 6 months and one year follow up.
WALANT anesthesia technique has been frequently preferred in hand and upper extremity surgery in recent years. WALANT technique; It stands out with its advantages such as lack of pre-operative anesthesia preparation process, reduction in test and examination requests, reduction in unnecessary hospitalizations and high patient satisfaction. There are studies with a high level of evidence showing that the WALANT technique has such advantages in soft tissue and smallmedium bone fracture surgery. In large bone fractures (radius, etc.), surgical treatment is performed with the WALANT technique and positive results have been reported. Although there is a study comparing WALANT and general anesthesia in the surgical treatment of distal radius fractures, there is no study comparing the peripheral nerve block technique.
This is a single center prospective study to compare the short term results of prosthesis, nail and plate-screw surgeries for metastatic pathologic fractures.
The goal of this study is to determine if weight-bearing crutch technology that delivers active feedback to patients during their treatment will impact patient compliance with physician instructions.
The Depuy Synthes Locking Compression Plate (LCP) Variable Angle Patella Plating System is an FDA approved device. The purpose of this study is to see how well the Depuy Synthes LCP Variable Plating System work in fixing a broken kneecap (patella). Depuy says that the device will improve healing when compared to traditional ways of repairing a broken patella. The goal of this randomized control trial is to learn how well the LCP Variable Plating System works to fix a broken patella (kneecap) compared to traditional fixation methods, in male and females, age 18 to 74, with a patellar fracture, and being treated at Hartford HealthCare The Bone and Joint Institute or Hartford Hospital. The main question it aims to answer are: - To understand if the Depuy Synthes LCP Variable Angle Plating System will provide a better way to help patients recover from a broken patella. Participants will evaluated at specific time points: post-op day 1, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 month post-surgery. Participants will be asked to: - Complete surveys at all evaluation timepoints. - Have x-rays(radiographs) taken at the 6 week, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, and 1 year timepoints. - Participants will have a passive range of motion tests done at 6 week, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, and 1 year timepoints. - Participants would have strength and balance tests done at the 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, and 1 year timepoints.
The treatment of lower limb fracture accounting one third of total fracture is a complex problem for the surgical and rehabilitation team. Patients are kept in long term fasting after surgery to prevent from postoperative complications, but it leads to the surgical catabolism resulting delaying the desired improvement in patients. To our knowledge, it has not been widely implemented in clinical settings. Therefore, the aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of early versus delayed postoperative oral feeding in lower limb fracture surgery under regional block anesthesia. This study utilize single-center, hospital based, open-label, parallel group randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of early postoperative oral feeding in two hours after the surgery over the conventionally delayed feeding. A representative sample size of 275 patients (control group=138 and study group =137) aged 18 years and above having lower limb fracture operated under regional block will be selected for research. The pre-operative nutritional status will be identified with Simplified Nutritional Appetite Questionnaire (SNAQ) and the post-operative outcomes will be measured by Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) system. Preoperative as well as postoperative hand grip strength and Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) will be assessed. Statistical analysis will be performed using chi square test, Student two sample t-test to compare between the outcome of study and control groups. The outcome of the study may provide an empirical evidence to the anesthesiologists and surgeons towards the emerging concept of postoperative early oral feeding practice in lower limb fracture surgery in clinical settings.
Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of telerehabilitation on the quality of life and mobility of early post-discharge in hip fracture patients, and to investigate whether telerehabilitation in the form of daily TUG tests recorded digitally will improve recovery outcomes for post-surgery hip fracture patients. Hypothesis to be tested: Main hypothesis: Caregiver empowerment can improve functional walking and quality of life at 1 month after discharge Secondary hypothesis: Hospital readmission and mortality rate can be reduced. Design and subjects: This is a prospective randomised controlled trial and subjects are fracture hip patients Instruments: Timed-Up-and-Go (TUG) test, EuroQol EQ5D-5L, Parker Mobility score Interventions: A videoconference scheduled at the 1st post-discharge week provides clear instructions and directions on how to perform daily exercise prescriptions based on the TUG test. Video instructions and multimedia for review will be provided. Interim videoconference will be conducted again after week 2 to ascertain adherence. Main outcome measures: Primary outcomes: Timed-Up-and-Go (TUG) test taken at day 0 and 28 Secondary outcome: EQ5D-3L and Parker Mobility Score taken on day 0 and 28 Other covariates Patient baseline demographics Classification of hip fractures Type of surgical intervention Comorbidities Any adverse events occurring: - Severe adverse events including: unplanned hospital readmissions, fall injury causing fractures, failure of internal fixation, death - Other adverse events including: unplanned clinic visits, complications requiring change in rehabilitation plan or additional medical/ surgical intervention, complications requiring closer observation Data analysis: Shapiro-Wilk test and independent sample t-test is performed for variables to ascertain normal distribution and compared for main outcomes. Binary variables and categorical variables with Chi-squared tests. Time-based outcomes are compared using Kaplan-Meier time to event analysis and log-rank test. A type 1 error rate / p value of 0.05 is used for statistical significance. Expected results: Fracture hip patients can be benefited from the empowerment program
- A cone beam CT (CBCT) scan of the patient, will be used to create a 3D scanned image of ZMC - 3D images will be introduced to finite element (FA)software to evaluate Stresses (MPa) and Life time (cycle) For each model and determine which point of fixation is the best - After application this point of fixation on the patient - Finite element analysis will be done again to verify the previous results
