Filter by:The Conventus CAGE™ PH (PH Cage) System Post-Approval Observational Data Collection Study (Study) is a single center, prospective, post-approval clinical study designed to collect device and procedure experience in everyday clinical practice.
There is currently no consensus amongst orthopedic specialists on the best way to treat 3- and 4-part proximal humerus fractures. No surgery and surgery with a type of shoulder replacement called a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty are two options that many orthopedists use. This study is being performed to evaluate the differences in short- and long-term pain and functional outcomes between patients who are treated with these two different options.
The aim of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography (US) in detecting full-thickness (a lesion that extends through both the bursal and articular part of the tendon) rotator cuff tear in patients who have sustained a proximal humerus fracture, using operative examination as the golden standard.
The purpose of this study is to collect device and procedure experience in everyday clinical practice. The patients are being asked to participate in this study because they are a surgical candidate for the treatment of a broken shoulder and are considering treatment with the PH Cage device.
The study is a multi-center, prospective, non-controlled, consecutive cohort post market surveillance study. The objective of this study is to obtain survival and clinical outcome data on the Hyperion® system in primary and revision total hip arthroplasty.
Research question: Do patients using a neutral rotation brace post surgery have improved functional outcome and external rotation of the shoulder compared to current best practice using a polysling holding the proximal humerus in internal rotation? Primary objectives: To compare post-operative functional outcome scores obtained at 6 weeks, 9 weeks, 3 months and 1 year. (Scores at 6 weeks and 3 months in clinical review and postal scores at 9 weeks and 1 year) between patients held in neutral versus current standard rotation. These will be compared to scores taken pre-operatively. Benefits: There may be no extra benefits to patients from this trial however the results from the trial will help improve treatment for future patients at this hospital, and others across the country. Risks/disadvantages: The operation is the same in both groups studied, the study is investigating the use of the two different slings. The post-operative treatment is also the same, and all patients on the trial will receive the same amount of physiotherapy. It isn't anticipated that there will be any additional risk from this trial.
The objectives of this study are to obtain survival and outcome data on the Trabecular Metal Humeral Stem when used in primary, total or hemi shoulder arthroplasty.
Background: Nonsurgical proximal humerus fracture is common, causing prolonged disability, for which the time to begin rehabilitation is not well determined. We assessed the feasibility and efficacy of early (within 3 days’after fracture) mobilisation of the shoulder compared with conventional 3-week immobilization followed by physiotherapy.
