Filter by:Single-centre, randomised, controlled, non-profit study on a custom-made medical device for immobilisation of radius and ulna fracture in paediatric patients. The aim of the study is to evaluate the benefits in terms of comfort, safety and efficacy resulting from the use of a customised 3D-printed wrist immobilisation device in children aged between 7 and 13 with a fracture of the distal metaphysis of radius or ulna of the 'green stick' type, compared to a control group treated with traditional immobilisation devices. The patients will be randomised between use of customised 3D- printed wrist immobilisisation device and plaster.
To study the analgesic effect of ultrasound guided PENG Block vs Femoral nerve block in patients with Hip fracture presenting to Emergency department
The goal of this observational study is to learn about and monitor the cross-sectoral rehabilitation process in older high-risk patients treated for at fragility fracture of the hip. The main questions aim to answer: - how patients are doing up to one year after hip fracture surgery on different outcomes across the continuum of rehabilitation being offered - what expectations, experiences and satisfaction patients have for the overall rehabilitation process after a hip fracture Participants age 65 and above with home address in Frederiksberg municipality, living in own home, admitted and treated for at hip fracture at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Bispebjerg Hospital, will be asked for participation.
The purpose of this study is to compare the short-term outcomes of individuals who have surgery (volar plate) for a wrist (distal radius) fracture who have routine hand therapy treatment versus routine hand therapy treatment and sensorimotor activities. Individuals who meet inclusion criteria at the facilities collecting data will be invited to participate. If they agree to participate, they will randomly and blindly (via concealed envelopes) be assigned to the control (routine treatment) or the sensorimotor treatment group. Data collection will occur at 3- and 6-weeks post initiation of skilled therapy and will include measurement of joint position sense, function via the Patient Rated Wrist and Hand, pain via the Numeric Pain Rating Scale, and range of motion at the digits and wrist.
Older adults suffering from a hip fracture are a significant concern, with higher incidence rates among women. Mortality rates post-hip fracture are alarming, with up to 8-fold increased risk within 3 months and significant percentages within 30 days and 12 months. Older adults with hip fracture face challenges in regaining pre-fracture level of function, especially those with cognitive impairment, which affects 25% to 40% of cases and increases mortality risk. While interventions exist, such as progressive strength training and structured exercise programs, patients with hip fracture don't consistently restore pre-fracture function, particularly in cognitively impaired patients, who are often excluded from studies. Limited evidence exists on effective management for this subgroup, with a lack of clarity on community-based rehabilitation. Although guidelines suggest exercise interventions for patients with mild to moderate cognitive impairment, the specifics remain uncertain due to insufficient research focused solely on this population. This feasibility study aims to assess the practicality and safety of implementing a 12-week individualized, progressive exercise program for older adults with hip fracture and cognitive impairment in an outpatient setting. Additionally, the investigators seek to gather qualitative insights through observations and interviews regarding participants' experiences and the perceived value of rehabilitation post-hip fracture, particularly focusing on the exercise intervention provided.
The CHIMERA study intends to evaluate the clinical benefits of the study medical device in the standard clinical practice.
This prospective multicenter cohort study is to compare the post-operative implant failure rate between the patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture (AO classification 31-A) using Proximal Femoral Universal Nail (PFUN) versus Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA) at 21-month follow up. The patients are divided into the PFUN group and the PFNA group according to the internal fixation they choose. The internal fixation failure rate (IFFR) and differences in fracture prognosis of the two groups will be compared. Obtain clinical data of PFUN in the Chinese population, and verify the safety and efficacy of PFUN for patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture.
Music has been proven to be beneficial in postoperative care by reducing pain. The effects of music listening to reduce pain postoperatively are well studied among cases undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery. No study has been conducted focusing on pain control among cases with fragility hip fractures in an acute ward setting with non-schedule non-elective orthopaedic operation. In Queen Elizabeth Hospital a standardized analgesic protocol is used for all fragility hip fracture cases unless contraindicated, a suboptimal post-operative pain control is not uncommonly seen. Stepping up analgesics is usually a concern in the elderly with a higher rate of side effects, a safe and simple non-pharmacological intervention for pain control is therefore needed. The aim of this study is to study the effectiveness of incorporating music on pain intensity and mobility with the standard postoperative rehabilitation care of fragility hip fracture in Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
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.
