Filter by:Complex Regional Pain Syndrome type 1 is a pain syndrome that develops after a trauma, surgery, or idiopathically. The incidence after distal radius varies significantly in the literature. There are known contributing factors, such as the female sex but no effective treatment or prophylactic method. This study aims to investigate vitamin C's efficacy in preventing CRPS type 1 following distal radius fractures, as the literature states that it might play a role in prophylaxis.
WALANT anesthesia technique has been frequently preferred in hand and upper extremity surgery in recent years. WALANT technique; It stands out with its advantages such as lack of pre-operative anesthesia preparation process, reduction in test and examination requests, reduction in unnecessary hospitalizations and high patient satisfaction. There are studies with a high level of evidence showing that the WALANT technique has such advantages in soft tissue and smallmedium bone fracture surgery. In large bone fractures (radius, etc.), surgical treatment is performed with the WALANT technique and positive results have been reported. Although there is a study comparing WALANT and general anesthesia in the surgical treatment of distal radius fractures, there is no study comparing the peripheral nerve block technique.
Distal radius fracture is the most common fracture in Sweden, but little is known about the patient's experience of pain and hand function during the first three months after the injury. This observational study will provide detailed information on a daily basis regarding pain, use of analgesic drugs, use of splints and hand function as measured weekly by a condition-specific questionnaire.
This will be a randomized, controlled, non-inferiority designed clinical trial. 56 qualified subjects will be selected and allocated 1:1 to Yunnan Baiyao group and celecoxib group. Each subject will be treated for 2 weeks and observed for 12 weeks, which will be lasted for 14 weeks during the whole trial. Yunnan Baiyao group will be given 4 times a day, 2 capsules each time after morning, afternoon and evening meals and before going to bed. One capsule of Baoxianzi will be provided for the first time to be taken at the same time with Yunnan Baiyao Capsule, which will be given continuously for 2 weeks. The celecoxib group will be given 1 capsule twice a day after breakfast and dinner for 2 weeks.
The investigators aim to evaluate the effect of a preoperative 3D printed Model (3PAS) of distal intraarticular radius fractures on quality of fracture reduction. Surgical procedure is equal in the 3PAS and in the conventional group. To evaluate the quality of fracture reduction each patient receives a postoperative CAT-scan.
Treatment of displaced distal forearm fractures (DFF) in children have traditionally been closed reduction and pin fixation, although they might heal and remodel without manipulation, with no functional impairment. No randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have been published comparing the patient-reported functional outcome after non-surgical and surgical treatment of displaced DFF in children. This is a multicentre RCT. The aim of the trial is to investigate the patient-reported functional outcome after non-surgical treatment of displaced distal forearm fractures (DFF) in children. We will include 44 children aged 4-10 years with a displaced DFF. They will be offered inclusion, if the on-duty orthopedic surgeon finds indication for surgical intervention. If the parents/guardians consent to participate, the children will be allocated equally to non-surgical treatment (intervention) or surgical treatment of surgeon's choice (comparator). We will follow the children during one year, where they will be seen after 4 weeks, 3, 6 and 12 months. The primary outcome is the between-group difference in 12 months Quick Disabilities Arm Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) score.
Through this study we aim to investigate the rate of DRFs initially treated with successful closed reduction (to an acceptable position, then immobilized in a plaster cast), that re-displace and end up requiring surgery. This study will clarify the incidence of DRFs where surgical intervention could potentially be avoided if the initial closed reduction lasted until sufficient bone healing was attained. As DRFs are the most common fracture of the adult population treated in the Danish emergency departments, the aim of this study is to examine the amount of people with DRFs that could potentially avoid surgery and thereby lowering the cost to the health care system, as well as save the patient invasive surgery. Furthermore, we expect to classify which specific types of fractures according to Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen/ Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) classification system have a high or low incidence of secondary surgery after primary closed reduction.
Pediatric patients with distal radius fractures are most commonly treated non-operatively with fracture reduction and cast immobilization. In order to prevent complications from increased swelling after the injury (or fracture manipulation) casts may be split along their length to relieve pressure. However, this can compromise the casts' structural integrity, predisposing fractures to loss of reduction. The goal of this study was to investigate if cast bivalving, or splitting the cast longitudinally on both sides, resulted in any immediate change to bony alignment and to assess if bivalving effected cast parameters associated with loss of reduction.
The investigators retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent extraarticular corrective osteotomy of the distal radius via a palmar approach and without the use of a bone graft, even in the absence of cortical contact after corrective osteotomy. The goal of this retrospective observational study is to determine whether secondary dislocation or nonunion occurs after corrective osteotomy without bone grafting.
The primary goal of this research project is to measure the accuracy of the classifications of the distal radius fracture in the fracture database. The evaluation of the extracted data analyzes the validity of the fracture classifications that the medical staff carry out in everyday clinical practice. Endpoint of this project is the reclassification of the selected fractures by an in-house group of experts in order to be able to carry out a subsequent statistical evaluation. It is analyzed whether there are significant deviations between the classifications of the expert group and the fracture database.
