Filter by:This study is designed as a randomized controlled study. The investigators aim to compare the success of supination-flexion and hyperpronation maneuvers in the treatment of preschool children presenting to the emergency department with radial head subluxation. All children aged 0-6 years, who are diagnosed with radial head subluxation secondary to traction of the forearm, had no evidence of direct trauma to the arm or fracture in the arm (no deformity, swelling, ecchymosis), had no history of musculoskeletal disease, and are approved to participate in the study by their legal guardians, will be included in the study. Patients who are considered to have radial head subluxation initially but had an X-ray performed by the physician and had a fracture in the arm will be excluded from the study. In the study, patients will be randomized and assigned to two treatment groups: the supination-flexion group and the hyperpronation group. In the supination-flexion group, the forearm will be supinated first, followed by full flexion of the elbow joint. In the hyperpronation group, the forearm will be pronated with the child's palm facing down. In both groups, maneuvers will be performed by 3 emergency medicine specialists with at least 2 years of experience. First-attempt failure is determined as the primary outcome of the study. Failure in the second attempt, ultimate failure, recurrence, patient satisfaction during the procedure, pain intensity (assessed by the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability - FLACC pain scale), and treatment-related adverse events are determined as secondary outcomes of the study. The investigators calculated the sample size and decided to include 117 patients in each group.
This is a prospective, single-center, placebo-controlled, non-comparative, phase II study to evaluate the influence of an adjuvant, intravenous therapy with zoledronic acid (single dose) on healing after arthroscopic repair of chronic rotator cuff tears. The study including its financial support was approved by the medical director of the General Accident Insurance Institution (AUVA) , Dr. Roland Frank. Hypothesis to prove: Adjuvant intravenous therapy with zoledronic acid does improve tendon healing after arthroscopic reconstruction of chronic rotator cuff tears compared to a control group without adjuvant therapy with zoledronic acid.,
Randomized clinical trial , with a sample of 60 children with atypical swallowing, class II and with SN1 orthopedic appliances these patients were randomly divided into, group 1: 30 patients with SN1 orthopedic appliances and myofunctional therapy and group 2: 30 patients with SN1 orthopedic appliances and without myofunctional therapy.
Our study focuses on reducing the use of CT (Computer Tomography) for pedicle screw instrumentation, replacing CT with X-ray. We are writing a program to measure the position on X-ray seeing whether the position meets that on CT after operation. In the future,our method can be used in fluoroscopy, helping us detecting screw malposition efficiently during the surgeries, and hoping reduce complications.
In this study, investigators will demonstrate and prove a ellipse method (Liaw's version) for measurement and detection of acetabulum cup retroversion.
This study mainly measures the orientation of acetabulum cup post total hip arthroplasty. Using "Liaw's Version", a new and accurate standardization method, investigators are trying to analyze acetabulum cup anterversion change postoperatively.
To compare the differences, if any, in clinical outcome, patient satisfaction and survivorship between cemented and uncemented Total Knee Replacements (TKR)? To investigate if there are health economic implications of using uncemented TKRs in the NHS?
This study aims to test the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) as a non-pharmaceutical intervention to reduce pain and anxiety in children undergoing painful procedures in Phlebotomy, Radiology, Infusion, Orthopedics, Gastroenterology, and Immunology, amongst others, at CHLA, as measured by self- and proxy-report. Examples of the painful procedures include IV sticks, cast removals, allergy testing, and anorectal manometries.
HaWPYC is an international Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) to collect post-market safety and performance data on commercially available Pyrocarbon (PyC) hand and wrist implants used in this study. Data may be used for Post-Market Surveillance, and regulatory requirements.
The Surgeons Clinical Outcomes Registry (SCOR) is a global registry designed to collect safety and performance data on commercially available Wright Medical products. Registry data may be used for publications, education and marketing materials, post-market surveillance, future regulatory submissions, research and development for product design, software improvements, and development of artificial intelligence learning and tools.
