Filter by:This proposed study aims at creating a computer designed patient specific device and titanium plates, that are 3D manufactured in accordance to a preoperative computer aided virtual surgical procedure, aiming to obtain proper alignment of fractured segments of the lower jaw and restore proper teeth positioning therefore overcoming the possible complications of the conventional methods. Recruited participants will be randomly allocated to a treatment groupp, whether the novel method group or a standard treatment group. Preoperative panoramic radiograph and a Computed tomography scan will be obtained for each patient. Surgical procedure will be conducted unde general anesthetic. Medications will be prescribed after surgery and instructions will be given to each patient. Follow up will be on a weekly basis for the first 6 weeks followed by a followup visit once a month for 6 months. Postoperative panoramic radiograph and a Computed tomography scan will be obtained at 1 week after the surgical procrdure and again 6 months later. Digital data obtained from computed tomography scans along with clinical data will be analysed and studied to determine the accuracy of the computer aided device and for comparison with the standard method of treatment.
To investigate the feasibility of the lateral infraclavicular plexus brachialis (LIC) block for acute closed reduction of distal radius fractures, the investigators will compare the pain-relieving and muscle-relaxing properties of the LIC block with short- and long-acting local anesthetics in different concentrations but at the same volume. In addition to motor and sensory blockade during repositioning, feasibility will also be assessed by other patient-related and block-related factors, as well as by factors related to the repositioning and plastering procedure.
In this project, IDEAL-IQ technology and PDFF and R2* image-based imaging methods are used to analyze the intrinsic relationship between preoperative vertebral bone marrow fat content, magnetic susceptibility properties of bone tissue and bone strength (bone volume and bone mass), to explore the mechanism of vertebral re-fracture after PVP / PKP, and to explore the imaging markers for the risk of postoperative vertebral re-fracture after PVP / PKP. To construct a precise and individualized risk assessment model of vertebral re-fracture after PVP/ PKP by combining clinical risk factors, preoperative quantitative MRI parameters (PDFF, R2*) and imaging characteristics, so as to achieve the goal of objectively and accurately evaluating the risk of vertebral re-fracture at the early stage of the postoperative period (1 year).
Comparative study used to assess if the patient specific zirconia implant will provide better accuracy, intraoperative adaptability, precise orbital volume and soft tissue reaction with more cost effectiveness than the patient specific titanium implants in orbital floor reconstruction after blow out fractures .
A Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) Study to collect clinical data on safety and performance of all TEKNIMED Spine range of products: SPINEFIX, HIGH V+, OPACITY+ and F20 bone cements and mixing and injection systems, and all their private labels. TEKNIMED bone cements are legacy products, some marketed for more than 10 years. Their performance and safety have already been demonstrated by Post-Market Surveillance and previous clinical studies. The current Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to confirm these claims by collecting data in a "real-life" setting. The study is a retrospective and prospective global, single arm, non-controlled, multicentric, prospective observational study. Patients will be followed as per local standard medical care of the sites.
Trial purpose is to research the outcome comparing traditional physiotherapy vs telerehabilitation after volar plating of distal radius fracture. Patients with distal radius fracture that meet the operative criteria set by the Finnish Current Care guidelines are randomized (1:1 computer generated sequence with random block size) to two parallel groups and will undergo operative treatment and traditional physiotherapy vs telerehabilitation. Baseline data is collected preoperatively and patients are followed at 1, 3 and 12 months after enrollment. The primary end-point is 3 months and the primary outcome is the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE).
Try to develop an endoscopic surgical technique to treat acetabulum fractures
studying if using extracorporeal radial shockwave therapy as an adjuvant therapy help in accelerating the bone healing and regeneration in mandibular fractures by comparing it with the standard protocol for fractures fixation by plates and screws.
Prospective, comparative, randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the outcomes of trochanteric nailing in unstable hip fractures with and without a distal interlocking screw.
Tibial plateau fractures are complex injuries produced by high- or low-energy trauma. They principally affect young adults or the 'third age' population ,the tibial plateau is a major weight-bearing surface within the largest and most kinematically complex joint in the human body. Fractures occur as a result of a combination of an axial loading force and a coronal plane (varus/valgus) moment leading to articular shear and depression and mechanical axis malalignment,So Limb alignment and articular surface restoration, allowing early knee motion, are the main goals of surgical treatment. Soft-tissue damage in fractures around the knee is of critical importance. The oedema and inflammation associated with the trauma can easily lead to local venous compromise, dermal hypoxia, and additional soft-tissue injury. This commonly leads to blistering of the skin and in some cases dermal and even muscle necrosis. Blood-filled blisters should be expected to be associated with a worse outcome than clear fluid-filled ones. Management in the early stages of treatment should focus on preventing further soft-tissue injury while waiting to repair the fracture. Traditionally, initial radiograph diagnosis should include anteroposterior (AP), lateral and oblique views. But single radiographs do not allow an exact fragment identification and the initial fracture classification can change in 5% to 24% (mean 12%) of cases and treatment can change in up to 26% of cases after CT scan imaging . These findings and the wider availability of CT scanning have made the oblique views less important in the diagnosis. Intra- and peri-articular soft-tissue structures can be affected even in less complex fracture patterns and some X-ray or CT scan data can also suggest the existence of a lateral or medial meniscal tear. Articular depression > 6 mm and/or articular widening > 5 mm are associated with the existence of lateral meniscus, lateral collateral ligament (LCL) or posterior cruciate ligament injuries . Schatzer classification (published in 1974) will be used to complete understanding of the personality of these fracture which is the key element in decision making process when choosing the best possible treatment . In general ,tibial plateau fracture are to be operated on , but the decision whether to be operated or not on a specific fracture should be based on the fracture morphology ,soft tissues , the patient general condition and the expected limb axis and articular surface restoration. Usual indications for surgical treatment are : 1. Intra-articular displacement of ⩾ 2 mm 2. Metaphyseal -diaphyseal translation > 1 cm 3. Angular deformity more than 10 degree in the coronal or sagittal view 4. Open fracture , compartment syndrome and associated ligament injury require repair. 5. Associated fractures of the ipsilateral tibia or fibula Frequently the depressed articular fragments have to elevated back toward the knee , followed by fixation and sometimes supplemented with bone graft to fill any cancellous bone voids left beneath the joint surface after fracture reduction . We will evaluate treatment outcomes of closed reduction and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation for tibial plateau fractures versus open reduction and fixation by plate
