Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the new bone formation around a metal device in the femoral head in patients with osteoporotic hip fractures undergoing surgical treatment with nails. These surgeries have a high risk of fixation failure in patients with osteoporosis due to low bone quality. The main question we aim to answer are whether promoting new bone formation around the implant is possible with a bone graft substitute (CERAMENT™ Bone Void Filler) and systemic osteoporosis drug (zoledronic acid) combination, which can strengthen the surgical fixation of the fracture. Participants will consist of patients suffering hip fracture and already scheduled for surgical treatment with a nail. One group will undergo conventional surgery. While the other group will also undergo the same surgery, they will receive CERAMENT™ Bone Void Filler around the implant as a short, extra step during surgery. This will allow the researchers to see whether new bone is formed during a 6-month follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to study the process of bone regeneration around a metal device in the femoral neck canal using a synthetic bone substitute Cerament bone void filler (BVF) and bisphosphonate (Zometa) locally or systemically that affects bone metabolism. Furthermore, fracture healing and implant migration will be investigated.
The purpose of this study is to compare reduction positon maintenance rate at 3 weeks post-operatively between patients operated with Anterior Support Screw (AS2) and without AS2 technique in RCT setting. Total 240 cases(each arm 120 cases) will be enrolled at maximum 15sites, total study duration is 22months.
