Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether a sugar-tong splint is as effective as a long-arm cast in maintaining reduction of pediatric forearm shaft fractures in a randomized, prospective manner. Consented participants will be randomly assigned to be treated with either a sugar-tong splint or a long-arm cast (both standard of care treatments) in REDCap. Each participant will have a 50/50 chance of being assign to either treatment.
The purpose of this study is to investigate if it is possible to decrease opioid consumption in patients undergoing ankle fracture surgery by providing scheduled doses of nonsteroidal inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled study with two groups of patients: one getting NSAIDs to take at regularly scheduled times plus a traditional prescription for opioid medication and one receiving the traditional prescription for opioid medication and a placebo. Patients will be assigned to a group from a computer-generated program. Neither the patients nor their doctors or nurses will know what group they are in, only the pharmacist will have that information. Patients in both groups will have the opportunity to take opioid medications if the pain becomes unmanageable.
