Geriatric Lateral Compression 1 Pelvic Fractures
Lateral compression-1 (LC1) pelvic ring fragility fractures cause significant pain and morbidity. These fragility injuries are associated with prolonged immobility and long hospital stays. Currently there is no consensus on operative stabilization of LC1 pelvic fractures, nor are there evidence-based guidelines to aid in management of these injury types. Furthermore, …
Nutritional Supplementation in Geriatric Hip Fractures
This study is a randomized controlled trial comparing outcomes between geriatric hip fractures who received a commercially available (XR RecoveryTM, Salt Lake City Utah) peri-operative nutritional supplement for three weeks post-operatively to those who receive standard nutritional counseling. The main question it aims to answer is: Does supplementation decrease muscle …
Application and Effect of "Internet + Nursing" in Hip Fragility Fracture Patients Based on Fracture Liaison Service
Fragility fractures, also known as osteoporotic fractures, are fractures that occur as a result of low-energy trauma or minor impact. They are the most serious complication of osteoporosis and are common bone diseases in the elderly. With our country gradually entering the aging society, the incidence of brittle fracture is …
Distal Radius Interventions for Fracture Treatment
This protocol describes a multicenter, prospective randomized superiority trial comparing functional outcomes between children treated with sedated reduction versus no formal reduction.
Hematoma Block for Distal Radius Fracture
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of ultrasound guided hematoma block versus traditional "blind" hematoma block for analgesia in distal radius fracture reduction.
Cervical Myelopathy in Hip Fracture Patients
Recent evidence has demonstrated a high rate of undiagnosed cervical myelopathy in patients presenting with hip fractures from a ground level fall. Identification and treatment of cervical myelopathy can help prevent falls and future fragility fractures. The purpose of this study is to screen ground level fall hip fracture patients …
Investigating Periprosthetic Fracture Cultures in Arthroplasty
This study aims to improve how doctors diagnose infections in patients with broken bones around joint replacements. Currently, there are no clear guidelines to help determine when an infection is present, making treatment decisions difficult. By studying how often infections are found through lab tests and identifying factors that predict …
Essential Amino Acid Supplementation for Femoral Fragility Fractures
This trial will evaluate the impact of 4 weeks of postoperative essential amino acid (EAA)-based supplementation on muscle morphology after femoral fragility fracture. This trial will assess the ability of EAA-based to increase skeletal muscle metabolic activity, reduce inflammation, and induce muscle fiber hypertrophy, as well as preserve skeletal muscle …
A Study to Improve the Collaboration Between Primary and Secondary Health Care on the Treatment of Osteoporosis After a Hip Fracture.
This is a study to improve the collaboration between primary and secondary health care on the treatment of osteoporosis after a hip fracture. In Akershus University Hospital, patients 75 years or older with a hip fracture, are offered treatment with an infusion of zoledronic acid 5mg, combined with vitamin D …
Effectiveness of Erector Spinae Plane Block for Percutaneous Arthrodesis of Spinal Fractures
Spinal fracture surgery is a common surgery. Post-operative pain has been reduced by the advent of so-called minimally invasive techniques. The immediate post-operative pain, however, remains relatively high, mainly because of muscle pain following the trauma. The erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a loco-regional anesthesia technique first described in …
