NCT ID: NCT04548466 Completed - Thoracic Fracture Clinical Trials

Effect of Positive Expiratory Pressure on the Management of Chest Trauma

Start date: October 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chest trauma (CT) are a common problem in our environment caused mainly by traffic accidents and causal and domestic accidents among the elderly population. CTs, in some situations, can lead to sequelae such as fibrothorax secondary to hemothorax and / or empyema and residual chronic pain. Clinical regulations and guidelines recommend a guideline for chest physiotherapy (CP) for all patients with rib fractures, but there is little scientific evidence. It would be interesting to establish CP treatment protocols and describe the most appropriate techniques according to the type and stages of thoracic trauma consolidation. Objective: To evaluate the effect of Positive Expiratory Pressure (PEP) breathing added to conventional CP in terms of aid secretion clearance, pain control, pleuropulmonary radiological abnormalities, restoration of lung function, and admission days in the immediate phase of the CT.

NCT ID: NCT03431519 Completed - Lumbar Fracture Clinical Trials

Percutaneous Injection Plus Short Segment Pedicle Screw Fixation for Traumatic A2 and A3 AO-type Fractures in Adults

NEOGEL
Start date: April 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study was to examine the short- to medium-term efficacy of percutaneous vertebral body reconstruction by vertebral body augmentation with Sr-HA paste plus short-segment pedicle screw fixation in fresh fractures, as well as to evaluate Sr-HA resorption/substitution. The hypotheses tested in this study were as follows: 1) whether Sr-HA is equivalent to PMMA for restoring the fractured thoracolumbar vertebral body, 2) whether leakage of Sr-HA is less than that of PMMA, and 3) whether Sr-HA is completely resorbed and replaced by cancellous bone.

NCT ID: NCT01810094 Completed - Lumbar Fracture Clinical Trials

Minimally Invasive Reduction and Fixation of Thoracolumbar Fractures

FRIFIX
Start date: February 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Spinal injuries, such as vertebral fractures, often result in a significant instability of the spine and lead to acute or delayed neurological deficits. Depending on the type of injury there are various methods available to stabilize the spine. The proposed study should clarify whether the combined reduction and fixation with a minimally invasive approach can actually be done with the same precision as in a conventional approach. The primary endpoint of this investigation is the monosegmental anterior wedge angle (AWA), and its maintenance over the first 6 postoperative weeks. It is the aim of the study to gather key radiological, clinical and subjective patient outcome parameters for its patient population that will allow to compare the results to a historical group of patients. The study design is non-interventional, prospective, open,and multicentric.
