Filter by:This is a multicenter, retrospective and prospective, non-controlled post market surveillance study. The objectives of this study are to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the T.E.S.S.® Version 3 Anatomic and Reverse Modular Total shoulder prosthesis and its instrumentation.
A prospective, randomized, evaluator-blinded, controlled study for subjects with open tibial fractures classified as Gustilo type II, IIIA or IIIB (see Appendix 1) who will receive bone graft implantation for the potential of delayed union or non-union within 3 months of fracture. Subjects will be followed for safety and clinical performance for the main study period of 30 weeks and an extension follow-up period up to 52 weeks after bone graft implantation.
Tibial pseudarthrosis in 83 year old patient suffering from pathologic fractures
The Duration of External Neck Stabilisation (DENS) study is a randomised controlled trial comparing early removal of a hard collar with treatment in a hard collar for 12 weeks in older or frail adults with odontoid (dens) fractures. The primary outcome measure is QoL assessed using the EQ-5D-5L at 12 weeks following injury. The aim of the study is to determine whether management without a collar improves outcome, compared to management with a collar. Cost efficiency will be assessed over the observed 6 months using standard NICE reference case methodology.
The investigators aim to study the use of blood flow restriction therapy (BFR) to augment routine post-operative physical therapy in elderly patients (age >= 65) after recovering from surgical treatment of hip fractures.
The primary objective is to examine the effect of multidisciplinary geriatric team home-visits as follow-up after a hip fracture in old patients. The hypothesis is that home-visits will reduce the number of falls, readmissions, prevent functional decline, optimize that medical treatment, and a higher degree of satisfaction and quality of life.
Hip fracture is recognized as one of the most serious consequences of osteoporosis, less than half regain pre-fracture independence. 95% of all hip fractures in older adults are due to falls. Thus, reducing fall risk while restoring function post-hip fracture is critical. Many with fall-related hip fractures have cognitive impairment; cognitive impairment increases the risk of falls. The purpose of this 6-month proof-of-concept randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to assess the efficacy of the home-based Otago Exercise Program (OEP) compared with usual care in reducing fall risk among older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and a fall-related hip fracture.
Twenty-five patients with mandibular angle fracture were subjected to reduction and fixation through intra-oral open reduction and semi-rigid min plate fixation near the superior border of the mandible at Champy's osteosynthesis line. The linear inter-fragmentary gap was measured at the inferior border of the mandible after fixation of the fractured bony segments in the final aligned position immediately postoperative on a panoramic radiograph for the mesio-distal plane and a cone beam computed tomography for the bucco-lingual plane to assess any lingual splay. The healing process was clinically followed for 3 months postoperatively for any complications and/or patient complains
120 patients age 18-64 years with dorsally displaced distal radius fractures AO-type A2, A3 and C1 are recruited from Oslo Casualty Medical Centre (Oslo Skadelegevakt). Patients are randomized to surgery with closed reduction and pins (CRPP) or open reduction and volar locking plate (VLP). The hypotheses is that CRPP will give equal function and satisfaction to VLP. Patients are followed by current practice of follow-ups until 5 weeks postoperatively, and in addition due to the study with functional tests after 2, 3, 6 and 12 months. These follow-ups will be performed by hand therapist. Scores are also recorded from Patient-Reported Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE), Quick-Dash (Q-d) and EuroQol Questionnaire (EQ-5D) questionnaires. The main efficacy measure in the study is PRWHE scores after 12 months. There will be X-ray initially, postoperatively and after 12 months. Sub-objectives in the study are analyses of cost-effectiveness (measured by EQ 5D, personnel use, use of additional healthcare service and absence from work), and differences in complications between the two methods.
The purpose of this study is to identify the association between analgesic management with blockade of the iliac fascia versus intravenous analgesia with the presence of delirium during hospital stay in patients admitted to the orthogeriatric clinical care center, to determine the opioid consumption of both groups of patients during hospitalization and determine the risk factors that may be associated with a greater presentation of delirium.
