Filter by:To investigate the feasibility and short-term clinical efficacy of the arthrography-assisted joystick technique for the treatment of adolescent transitional ankle fracture.
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.
Tibial pseudarthrosis in 83 year old patient suffering from pathologic fractures
Approximately 1000 patients presenting with tibial shaft fractures (AO type 42) will be enrolled prospectively in this registry. All patients are treated and followed at 6 weeks, 6 months and 1 year postoperative always following the local standard of care (routine) visit schedule up to 36 months if required. Data collection includes patient and fracture details, treatment details, functional, clinical and patient-reported outcomes and anticipated or procedure- and implant-related adverse events (i.e. complications) and their corresponding treatment
In Taiwan, about 75.92% of the elderlies above 65 years old suffered from chronic diseases or major diseases, especially in circulatory system. Thus, dramatic hemodynamic change is often observed in surgeries in this population. Due to osteoporosis and high-prevalence morbidities, trauma with fracture is quite common. These elderlies are more vulnerable to have complications, poor prognosis and decompensated organ functions. The investigators would like to observe the perfusion of different tissue intra-operatively, and to find the correlation with surgical outcome. There are many non-invasive hemodynamic monitors nowadays. In our study, the investigators will use noninvasive cardiac output measurement(NICOM), and non-invasive transcutaneous near infrared spectroscopy(NIRS) to observe hemodynamic change and tissue perfusion. After the surgery, the duration in ICU will be recorded. A questionnaire, SF-36, will be mailed to the patients 2 months after the surgery to measure the psychometric status.
