NCT ID: NCT05630430 Completed - Surgery Clinical Trials

Volar Carbon Plate Effects on Procedure Time

Start date: April 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Radius distal end fractures are common orthopedic injuries. Many methods have been described in the treatment of distal radius fractures. The fixation of radius distal end fracture with volar plate was first applied by Ellis in 1965. Over the years, ideas have been put forward on the materials used for plates and the radiolucent carbon fiber plates has been used. These plates cause less artifact in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance examinations (MRI), allow a better evaluation of the fracture, exhibit biomechanical characteristics close to the cortical bone, and do not cause a coldwedding in patients.

NCT ID: NCT03868696 Completed - Colles' Fracture Clinical Trials

Ultrasound Directed Reduction of Colles Type Distal Radial Fractures in ED (UDiReCT)

UDiReCT
Start date: October 7, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a limited two centre randomized controlled feasibility trial towards a larger definitive trial designed to assess whether bed side ultrasound can reduce the rate of surgical fixation following emergency department manipulation of Colles' type wrist fractures. UDiReCT will mirror the proposed design of the definitive trial but will report feasibility data such as recruitment rate, data completeness and reliability of potential definitive trial outcome measures.

NCT ID: NCT03716661 Completed - Clinical trials for Distal Radius Fracture

Operative vs. Conservative Treatment of Distal Radius Fractures

Start date: November 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Even though broken wrists are of frequent occurrence, the investigators see a lack of extensive and well executed international studies to clarify which is the best treatment for elderly participants at 65+ years. The Danish Health and Medicines Authority recommend that broken wrists are treated with surgery by using plates and screws when certain radiological criteria are met. Recent studies show that, apparently, there are no advantages by operating rather than treating with plaster when comparing the functional results after one year. However, there is a 30 % risk of serious complications occurring after surgery. This study will examine the pros and cons that participants at 65+ years with broken wrists experience after, by lot, having been treated with either surgery (using plates and screws) or without surgery (using plaster for 5 weeks). The purpose of this study is to compare the complications and level of functioning between participants treated with surgery and without surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03009890 Completed - Clinical trials for Radius Distal Fracture

Surgery vs. Casting for Displaced Articular Radius Fractures in Elderly

DART
Start date: February 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Objective: to compare the functional outcome after open reduction and internal fixation with non-operative cast treatment for elderly patients with displaced intra-articular distal radius fractures.
