Non-invasiveness, avoidance of complications and comfort are important issues in the clinical management of conservatively treated distal radius and scaphoid fractures. To date, applying a plaster cast for approximately 6 weeks of immobilization is the gold standard. However, new 3D-technologies such as the design of Patient Specific Anatomical Braces (PSAB) will lead to a new paradigm of treatment. Swibrace has developed such anatomical, light, elegant and yet resistant braces. First, the fractured limb is scanned, the data then sent to a specifically designed software, printed in a 3D-printer and finally sent to the hospital for the patient's fitting. As these PSAB have not yet been tested on patients, the primary purpose of this study is to evaluate whether patient satisfaction with a 3D-printed PSAB differs from the one of traditionally treated patients in a plaster cast. (A pre-clinical study will be conducted with 10 healthy volunteers testing the 3D splint for 72h. Only if splint satisfaction will be ≥ 70% as measured by the self-designed "Adult Rated Splint Evaluation Questionnaire" (ARSEQ), the 3D splint will be tested in patients. Otherwise, adjustments to the splint will be made based on the healthy volunteers' feedback prior to its testing in patients.)
Our aim is to objectively analyze the effects of the non-vascularized autograft taken from the radius and the dorsal and volar surgical approach on the preop and postop wrist kinematics and the movements we use frequently in daily life, and to present the results.
Percutaneous Trans-trapezial fixation of acute Scaphoid fractures by Herbert screw
The aim of this study is to compare the time to return to previous activity level between operative treatment and non-operative cast immobilization of patients with an acute complete fracture of the middle part of the scaphoid, without any dislocation or comminution visible CT-scan.
