Surgical Versus Non-Surgical Treatment of Thoracolumbar Burst Fracture
Treatment for acute traumatic thoracolumbar burst fractures differs significantly across the world in patients without neurological impairments and without damage to the posterior column of the spine. This randomized controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial's goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of surgery versus initial non-surgical treatment for patients with traumatic thoracolumbar …
Ultrasound Guided Hematoma Block in Distal Radius Fractures
This study will investigate the effectiveness of analgesia of ultrasound hematoma block compared to 'blind' hematoma block in patients with dislocated distal radius fracture.
PENG vs FICB for Hip Fracture in ED Patients
Regional anesthesia for hip fractures has been shown to decrease rates of delirium in elderly patients with hip fractures as well as improve pain compared to systemic opioids. The Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block has recently received attention as an alternative approach to femoral nerve block and Fascia Iliaca Compartment …
Short and Long-arm Fiberglass Cast Immobilization for Distal Salter Harris I and II Forearm Fractures in Children
The aim of this study is to investigate whether short-arm fiberglass cast (SAC) immobilization provides fracture stabilization comparable to that of long-arm cast (LAC) treatment of displaced and non-displaced distal Salter Harris I/II forearm fractures in paediatric patients.
Fibulink Syndesmosis Repair System With Early Full-Weight Bearing
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the ability of the Fibulink Syndesmosis Repair System to maintain reduction of the ankle syndesmosis. Appropriate reduction of the syndesmosis is critical due the changes in tibiotalar contact pressure observed in cadaveric studies.6,7 Malreduction and instability of the distal tibiotalar joint can …
Fracture Monitor - Femur
Thirty-seven patients diagnosed with femoral fracture to be treated with a compatible plate will be enrolled for this multicenter prospective interventional study. The Fracture Monitor T1 will be attached to the locking plate during osteosynthesis. Prior to discharge, it will be connected to an app installed either on the patients' …
A Study to Verify if the Surgery for the Proximal Femur Fracture Can be Improved With the Help of a Navigation System
The ADAPT system is a software that calculate a virtual 3D reconstruction of the femoral head without additional radiation. It automatically detects the used implant and its position relative to the femoral head, helping the surgeon to achieve an optimal proximal screw positioning in the femoral head. The investigators want …
Retrograde Femoral Nail-Advanced Outcomes for Fixation of Distal Femur and Femoral Shaft Fractures
This project consists of a prospective and retrospective case series design. Study candidates will include all patients 18 years or older, who were evaluated at UCSD and found to have a distal femur or femoral shaft fracture requiring surgical fixation. Patients who consent to study participation will recieve the RFN-advanced …
Study of the Effectiveness of a Polymer Cerclage System Compared to Cerclages Used in Standard Care (CERCPMCF) )
The use of cerclage wiring in the management of long bone fractures is common. With the increase in the placement of total hip ans shoulder prostheses, the occurrence of peri-prosthetic hip an shoulder fractures is also increasing, notably due to an older population. Whether it is for a fracture on …
Family Caregiver Role in Decreasing Delirium in Older Patients With Fractured Femur Using HELP Principles.
The Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP) has been shown to reduce delirium in hospitalized patients. In this study a family caregiver will apply the principles of the HELP program in a structured manner following training by a nurse clinical specialist in geriatrics. The effect of this intervention in decreasing delirium …
