Filter by:The study is a prospective randomized examining the impact of fascia iliaca block on perioperative pain control and post operative ambulation in patients with hip fractures.
The prevention of infection is an important goal influencing peri-operative care of extremity fracture patients. Standard practice in the operative management of extremity fractures includes sterile technique and pre-operative skin preparation with an antiseptic solution. The available solutions kill bacteria and decrease the quantity of native skin flora, thereby decreasing surgical site infection (SSI). While there is extensive guidance on specific procedures for prophylactic antibiotic use and standards for sterile technique, the evidence regarding the choice of antiseptic skin preparation solution is very limited for extremity fracture surgery.
Unstable pelvic fracture with bleeding can be fatal, with a mortality rate of up to 40%. Therefore, early detection and treatment are important in unstable pelvic trauma. We investigated the early predictive factors for possible embolization in patients with hemodynamically unstable pelvic trauma. The purpose of this study was to predict the necessity of embolization and the timing of angiography using CT scans.
Older persons are at riskt for falls and fractures. After hip surgery they are normally treated with physical or occupational therapy. The additional use of computer based exercise games for training and the acceptance of such a technology are unclear. Thus, we plant to assess the above outcome ins an observational pilot study.
The incidence of hypotension perioperatively during operation of an acute hip fracture is unknown. As a surrogate factor the usage of vasopressor support is more adequate as the registration of vasopressor drugs are many times not complete in records. The investigators retrospectively investigated the anesthetic journals of 1100 patients with an acute hip fracture (AHF) noting confounding factors and the usage of vasopressors either by injections or infusions and then correlated these results to mortality at 30-, 90- and 365- days
This study evaluates the rate of cut-out and fixation failures in helical blade fixation versus lag screw fixation for cephalomedullary nailing of peritrochanteric femur fractures.
The aim of the project is to predict the patient under conservative therapy as a function of the patient Classification of Rommens and Hofmann and other potential prognostic factors. A corresponding prognostic score may be used in the future by patients and attending physicians support joint decision between surgical and conservative treatment.
Pelvic fracture are very often treated by surgery ; however there are a high level of thrombotic risk during the surgery (venous thrombo embolic events represent about 10% to 50%. The aim of our study is to report the number of these events and identify the risk factor associated to these events regarding Greenfield Risk Assessment Profile .
Objective: To evaluate the effect of care bundle on prevention of delirium among elderly patients with hip fractures. Methods: A prospective randomized case control study was performed for 80 patients (≥65 years) with hip fractures treated surgically according to their ages and the type of fractures from March 1th of 2017 to June 30th of 2017．There were 11 males and 69 females, with the age of (79.3±7.84) years. Confusion assessment method (CAM) was applied to diagnose delirium after surgery, the subjects were randomized divided into experimental group (n=43) and control group (n=37). The parameters next were recorded and analyzed, including age, gender, type of fractures, type of internal instrument, amount of bleeding, time between injured to surgery, time length of operation, type of operation, VAS, incidence of delirium, perioperative complications and adverse events.
It is prospective randomized comparative clinical trial comparing primary urethral realignment vs. suprapubic cystostomy in initial management of pediatric pelvic fracture urethral injury regarding: 1. The success rate after initial intervention. 2. The need for urethroplasty in the failed realignment group and cystostomy group. 3. The success rate of urethroplasty in the failed realignment group and cystostomy group.
