Filter by:Analgesic drug study that will compare pain outcomes of opioid analgesia and opioid-free analgesia in post-operative orthopedic patients.
A cost-utility analysis based on an earlier published RCT comparing surgery with volar locking plate to non-operative treatment for the elderly with a displaced distal radius fracture.
This clinical trial aims to compare a Mixed Reality Viewer in the preoperative informed consent process to standard fracture visualization. The participants population are patients with an indication for surgery of a distal radius fracture, upper ankle fracture or proximal humerus fracture using plate osteosynthesis. The main questions aim to answer are: - Does the use of the Mixed Reality Viewer improve patient understanding? - Does the use of the Mixed Reality Viewer improve patient satisfaction? - Does the use of the Mixed Reality Viewer reduce patient preoperative anxiety? Participants will have their fracture presented via the Mixed Reality Viewer. Researchers will compare standard fracture imaging using X-ray or CT scans to see if there is any difference in understanding, satisfaction and anxiety.
The investigators test the efficacy of closed reduction in displaced distal radial fractures in the emergency department.
The aim of this study is to compare functional and radiological results in two groups of distal radius fractures treated with internal fixation with locking plate, and immobilized with antebrachial splint or compression bandage for 3 weeks.
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of design on plate position at the level of the distal radius. Six anterior wrist plates design were analyzed relative to the watershed line using the Soong classification. A total of 2723 anterior locking plate fixation cases were analyzed and divided into six groups: Zimmer Biomet, Newclip Technics, Stryker, Synthes, Medartis and Medartis Footprint. The number of plates recorded as Soong grade 0+1 was determined for each design, then compared using the Marascuilo procedure. The Zimmer Biomet and Newclip plates were proximal to the Watershed line significantly more often than those by Synthes and Medartis Footprint. Plate position with the Medartis design was significantly more proximal to the Watershed line compared to its companion design, the Medartis Footprint plate. Plate design is a deciding factor when treating distal radial fractures, to avoid impingement when implant removal is not routinely planned.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the difference between the use of paper- versus application-based (smartphone application) exercises in the rehabilitation of intra-articular fractures of the distal radius at the Cantonal Hospital of Fribourg, Switzerland. The operation itself will proceed as usual. However, the rehabilitation will be aided by exercises based either on a paper support or on a digital application (smartphone application), in addition to follow-up by a hand therapist. The aim is to determine which support provides the best improvement in wrist mobility and function, and to speed up the return to work.
Comparison of analgesia between ultrasound guided supracondylar radial nerve block and hematoma block for closed reduction of distal end radius fractures- an observational study
Prospective, single arm, monocentric clinical study to test NVDX3 in patients suffering from distal radius fracture. NVDX3 will be implanted during a single surgical intervention.
Distal radius fractures (DRF) are the most common upper extremity disorders encountered in clinical practice. With an understanding of the mechanics of distal radius fractures, surgical intervention, and bone healing, the therapist can modify the therapy program according to the patient's individual needs. The therapeutic process is begun in the crucial stage of bone healing during fracture immobilization. By addressing edema reduction and early range of motion of the uninvolved joints, most problems can be avoided before cast or fixator removal. Rehabilitation following the immobilization period should focus on regaining wrist movements provided that earlier problems have been addressed properly. During the rehabilitative process, the therapist can incorporate scar management, modalities, joint mobilization, active and passive range of motion, splinting, and strengthening to maximize the patient's functional result. Massage and mobilization techniques are used in the treatment of DRF due to their analgesic effects. The painless mobilization with movement technique (MWM, developed by Brian Mulligan) is a manual therapy method applies to correct the limitation of movement in the joint and to relieve pain and functional disorders. Many studies have shown that MWM technique provides faster and momentary painless joint movement compared to other physical therapy modalities. The patient group with DRF has a large place in the general population and long treatment processes cause both labour loss and economic loss. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effectiveness of MWM technique in cases with distal radius fractures.
