Filter by:Acetabular roof was a crucial structure for maintaining the stability of hip joint; however, its important role was not especially emphasized in the Letournel-Judet classification system. Acetabular roof was segmented into the roof column and roof wall in Three-column classification and fracture in this area alone was defined as A3 injury. Radiographic data and functional outcome of A3 injury patients were reviewed to explore the characteristics and surgical strategy.
The study is a prospective, randomized, double blinded, placebo controlled trial that aims to investigate the hypothesis that early administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) following diagnosis of hip fracture will lower pre and postoperative blood loss and transfusion rates. Patients who present to the hospital with a hip fracture will be recruited and randomized into two treatment arms. The treatment group will receive 1950mg of oral TXA (three tablets, 650 mg each) and the control group will be given three tablets of oral placebo while in the Emergency Department. Patients will then be admitted to the Orthopaedic Trauma service and treated surgically with cephalomedullary nail, hemiarthroplasty, sliding hip screw, percutaneous screws, or total hip arthroplasty.
Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), a non-psychoactive cannabis compound derived from peanuts, egg yolks, and soybeans, is an Endogenous FA Amide produced in the body as a biological response and a repair mechanism in chronic inflammation and chronic pain. In animal and clinical trials, PEA has also shown evidence of pain reduction, sleep improvement, and increased joint mobility and function with minimal side-effects. The study team intends to study whether the inclusion of PEA in conjunction with standard post-surgical medications can reduce pain and inflammation while decreasing the number of opioids needed.
The purpose of this study is to compare web FLS model (e_FLS) to conventional FLS in terms of increasing the proportion of patients receiving an antiosteoporotic treatment in the year after a low trauma fracture.
The goal of the project is to describe novel factors affecting outcome after elbow fracture surgery with an in-depth evaluation of the role played by neuro inflammation from concomitant peripheral nerve injury or head injury in elbow fracture outcomes. Among all upper limb fractures, elbow trauma is the most frequently associated with a severe impact on patient function and quality of life. One of the main reasons for poor outcomes is the complexity of the elbow joint, which involves three bones and two planes of motion, essential to position the hand in space. The flexion extension axis is crucial for eating and hygiene, while forearm pro-supination is mandatory for most professions, from office work to manual labour.
The purpose of this study is to compare 2 pain control treatments for people with 3 or more rib fractures.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of BMAC when used in conjunction with viable allograft bone for treating displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures, in terms of rate of allograft incorporation into the host tissue, bone healing, and functional outcome.
The focus of this study is to explore the variability distribution of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (ALA)associated with bone and soft tissue perfusion in infection patients, using 5-ALA fluorescence imaging. In additional this study plans to evaluate the change in 5-ALA distribution from pre to post debridement and to preliminarily determine whether an orally administered dose of 20mg/kg 5-ALA can predict recurrent infection/treatment failure.
This is a post-market study to evaluate the revision rate of femoral fractures, treated with INTERTAN 10S Nails at one-year post-operation. The study will enroll Approximately 180 subjects with femoral fractures, Approximately 7 sites are involved. The study duration will be Approximately 36 months (6 months start-up, 1 year enrollment, 1 year follow-up, 6 months closeout/study report).
The investigators are going to evaluate if adding Tranexamic Acid in femoral shaft fractures surgery can lead to any advantages to the participants, namely if it can reduce post-operative anaemia, blood loss, blood transfusion requirements, length and cost of hospitalisation.
