Filter by:Primary objective of this study is to compare fracture related infection (FRI) rates of ZNN Bactiguard Tibia to conventional uncoated titanium-alloy nails 12 months after tibia fracture fixation. The secondary objectives are confirmation of safety, performance and clinical benefits of ZNN Bactiguard implant and related instrumentation12 months after fracture fixation.
To investigate the feasibility and short-term clinical efficacy of the arthrography-assisted joystick technique for the treatment of adolescent transitional ankle fracture.
The proposed study is a two arm, pragmatic, randomized controlled multicenter Phase III noninferiority trial. 1,000 patients with tibia fractures treated with intramedullary (IM) nail will be randomized into two treatment arms. The control arm will receive standard pain management and no NSAIDs. The treatment arm will receive standard pain management plus up to six weeks of NSAIDs (3 weeks of prescribed medication followed by 3 weeks of medication PRN).
A prospective, randomized, evaluator-blinded, controlled study for subjects with open tibial fractures classified as Gustilo type II, IIIA or IIIB (see Appendix 1) who will receive bone graft implantation for the potential of delayed union or non-union within 3 months of fracture. Subjects will be followed for safety and clinical performance for the main study period of 30 weeks and an extension follow-up period up to 52 weeks after bone graft implantation.
Study aims to compare two treatment modalities for treatment of transverse fractures of tibia. One is Intramedullary interlocking nail and the other is dynamic compression plate.
Tibial pseudarthrosis in 83 year old patient suffering from pathologic fractures
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blinded clinical feasibility study of subjects that are being treated for Gustilo and Anderson Type II or IIIA or IIIB Tibial Fractures
Fractures of the tibia (shin bone) are frequently treated with a metal nail that is passed down the inside of the bone (an intra-medullary nail). This nail is inserted through the top of the tibia at the level of the knee joint. There are two ways for the nail to be inserted - either through an incision below the patella (kneecap) or above the patella. The benefit of the incision above the patella is that it can make it technically easier to insert the nail into the correct position. However, the perceived risk of damage to the knee cartilage has prevented this technique from being widely adopted. The investigators will use MRI scanning to assess the cartilage for damage using both techniques. The results will enable the investigators to determine if the theoretical risk of cartilage damage is found in real-world scenarios and to generate data for further, larger studies.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of administering CBD to control post-operative pain in patients undergoing ankle fracture open reduction and internal fixation, tibial plafond (pilon) open reduction and internal fixation, tibial shaft repair (open reduction internal fixation or intramedullary nail fixation), or tibial plateau open reduction and internal fixation. Secondly, the purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness of CBD in comparison with opioid therapy for post-operative pain.
The purpose of this trial is to determine whether oral acetaminophen and intravenous ketorolac are viable alternatives to opioid medication regimens for the pain management of patients with tibial and femoral shaft fractures treated with intramedullary nailing. This study will explore an alternative for opioid medications for patients undergoing intramedullary nailing of tibial and femoral shaft fractures.
