Filter by:The purpose of this study is to reveal the effectiveness of integrative Korean medicine for trauma fracture by observation inpatients treated with integrative Korean medicine. This study is a prospective observational study. The subjects for study are patients diagnosed with fracture and who have been admitted to five Jaseng Hospital of Korean medicine (Gangnam, Bucheon, Daejeon, Bundang and Haeundae) for 2017.03-2020.08. Medical records of selected patients will be analyzed, and online google surveys(or telephone) will be conducted for each patient. The survey questions are Numeric rating scale (NRS), quality of life, and Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC), etc.
The study will investigate the shortening and collapse of pertrochanteric fractures following surgical management with the TFN-Advanced nailing system. The focus will be on comparing radiographic assessments of nails which have been statically locked versus dynamically locked. This is a randomized control study with the initial invention being randomized to either statically locking or dynamically locking. For a two-month period, all eligible patients will receive the randomized allocated treatment, then treatment will switch to the alternate treatment for the next two months and will continue to alternate treatments for two-month periods until study enrollment has completed.
The study is designed as a multicenter trial for the treatment of distal pediatric forearm fractures (=severely displaced distal metaphyseal forearm fractures) with a PLGA-based biodegradable intramedullary implant in children. The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate clinical outcome between Activa IM-Nail™ and K-wire in this indication. The secondary objective is to evaluate potential differences of potential complications in the operative method with either a biodegradable intramedullary PLGA-implant or with conventional K-wires. K-wire osteosynthesis will be made according to the conventional surgical technique by three paediatric trauma centers. Intramedullary PLGA implantation will be made by the Péterfy Hospital. The surgical indication will be the same in all groups, and follow-up will follow standard protocols. In the further clinical course, the patients in the study group treated with PLGA implants spare a subsequent operation for implant removal after 4-8 weeks. The results of different surgeries will be compared based on several criteria.
The fifth metatarsal is one of the bones where stress fractures can occur. Current literature provides support for both operative and non-operative treatment, but is mostly based on retrospective studies. One small randomized controlled trial reported faster recovery in the surgery group, but this study is probably subject to selection bias as well as underpowered design. There is a need to strengthen the knowledge base regarding treatment of stress fractures in the fifth metatarsal. This study seeks to answer whether osteosynthesis with an intramedullar screw fixation gives faster painfree weight bearing compared to non-operative treatment with a walking boot.
The Activa IM-Nail™ is used in the fixation of forearm fractures with cast to achieve a level of reduction and stabilisation that is appropriate to the age of the child. The post-market clinical follow-up study will be performed to identify the residual risk related to re-fracture and to determine its impact to the risk/benefit ratio of Activa IM-Nail™.
This study aims to compare the hemodynamic impact of two anaesthetic strategies 'Regional anesthesia' versus 'General anesthesia' in leg and ankle fractures surgery.
The aim of this project is to assess the effectiveness of the IlluminOss pelvic implants in patients with pelvic metastatic disease presenting with pain, risk of pathologic fracture, non-displaced or minimally displaced pathologic fracture of the pelvis, and geriatric patients with pelvic fragility fractures. Results from this study will be used to confirm preliminary clinically and possibly statistically significant reductions in pain and improvements in function among these patients.
Femur fracture is very common in older people. It makes the people bedridden for long time at hospital. The fracture of femur is generally managed by the surgical procedure. Prolonged fasting for surgery makes the patients harassed physically as well as mentally. The long fasting state emphasizes the body more in catabolic state which increases the insulin resistivity. Pre-operative carbohydrate loading before two hours the surgery has been launched in practice to overcome these problems in the world context, however it is not in existence in Nepal. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of pre-operative carbohydrate loading in the case of femur fracture surgery. This study utilize a hospital based randomized control trial study design to assess the effect of carbohydrate loading before two hours the surgery over the completely fasting state. A representative sample size of 66 patients (control group =33 and study group =33) aged 50 years and above having femur fracture planned for surgery will be selected for research. The pre-operative nutritional status will be identified and the post-operative outcomes will be measured by Visual Analogue Score (VAS) and Cumulative Ambulatory Score (CAS). Statistical analysis will be performed using chi square test, independent sample t-test or Mann-Whitney U test to compare between the outcome of study groups and control groups. The outcome of the study may provide a platform to the anaesthesiologists and surgeons towards the emerging concept of pre-operative carbohydrate loading practice in Orthopedics surgery in Nepal.
BLOCKPAIN is a randomized controlled study, 80 participants. The participants will be hip fracture patients in Emergency Medicine Department in Clinical Hospital "Sveti Duh", Zagreb, Croatia. Upon patient arrival inclusion and exclusion criteria will be established. After signing the informed consent form participant will be randomized in one of two study groups. One study group is fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB), the other is placebo. All participants will be given paracetamol 1 gram IV as standard care. If needed, rescue analgesic will be tramadol 100 mg in 100 ml saline IV. The time frame is 24 hours after the FICB or placebo procedure.
