Filter by:The purpose of this study is to perform a five-year, multi-center prospective evaluation of the Discovery™ Elbow System for outcome and durability. Relief of pain and restoration of function will determine long-term clinical outcome while durability will be measured by the absence of revisions.
The purpose of this study is to perform a five-year, prospective evaluation of the Copeland™ Humeral Resurfacing Head Prosthesis for outcome and durability. Relief of pain and restoration of function will determine long-term clinical outcome while durability will be measured by the absence of revisions.
A prospective randomized clinical trial is proposed to compare the plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures using a minimally invasive lateral approach and the traditional anterior approach.Forty five patients will be assigned to each approach (total of 90 patients) and will be assessed 7 times over a two-year period. The trial's primary objectives will be to demonstrate the efficacy of the plating technique in terms of speed of recuperation of function. The Quick DASH will be used for evaluation of function.The study will also examine secondary end-points of pain, range of motion, esthetic satisfaction and radiographic outcome, as assessed by the components of the Constant Score3,4, SF-12V2 Questionnaire, and Patient Scare Assessment Scale Questionnaire. Furthermore, the assessment of safety will be based on the rates of all reported complications and adverse events at 2 years
The purpose of the study is to compare two common ways of rehabilitating after proximal humerus fractures treated non-operatively.
Completely displaced (Type III) supracondylar fractures of the humerus are treated in the operating room and are held together with pins stuck into the bone. There are two ways of inserting the pins: crossed and laterally. The crossed method is often used because it is thought to be more stable, but this method also carries a risk of hitting the ulnar nerve. It is not known which method is more stable. Our hypothesis is that loss of reduction will be equivalent between the two pinning methods.
Background: Nonsurgical proximal humerus fracture is common, causing prolonged disability, for which the time to begin rehabilitation is not well determined. We assessed the feasibility and efficacy of early (within 3 days’after fracture) mobilisation of the shoulder compared with conventional 3-week immobilization followed by physiotherapy.
The purpose of this prospective randomized study is to evaluate the risks and benefits of using bimodal analgesia, (i.e. Narcotics and NSAIDS) vs Narcotics alone post long bone fracture.
The aim of the study is to compare the results regarding fracture healing and functional outcome after the treatment of proximal humeral fractures with the four different treatment methods after 12w./6months and 12 months based on radiological evaluation as well as the "constant score" and the "neer score".
