Treatment of Olecranon Fractures in the Elderly
Operative treatment, with tension band wiring or plate fixation, will be compared with non-operative treatment of displaced olecranon fractures (Mayo classification 2A and 2B) in patients 75 years or older.
Prosthesis Versus Osteosynthesis in Proximal Tibia Fractures
The aim of this study is to compare knee function and pain one year after treatment of intra-articular proximal tibia fracture using either osteosynthesis with a locking plate (ORIF) or primary total knee replacement (TKR) in patients over 65 years of age.
Management of Type 1 Supracondylar Humeral Fractures
This study compares the clinical outcomes of treating pediatric Type 1 supracondylar fracture with a long arm soft cast and no clinical or radiographic follow-up versus the standard treatment in a long arm cast with clinical follow-up. This is the first multicenter randomized control trial looking at the clinical effectiveness, …
Treatment of Fifth Metatarsal Zone 3 Fractures
The fifth metatarsal is one of the bones where stress fractures can occur. Current literature provides support for both operative and non-operative treatment, but is mostly based on retrospective studies. One small randomized controlled trial reported faster recovery in the surgery group, but this study is probably subject to selection …
Discharge Training for Patients With Intertrochanteric Fracture
This study examines the effect of discharge training given to patients with intertrochanteric femur fractures on the wound healing process and readiness for discharge. In the study, patients were provided with certain educational content before and after discharge. The effect of training on wound healing, readiness for discharge and post-discharge …
Prednisone for CRPS in Distal Radius Fracture
Wrist fractures are the most prevalent adult fracture. Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a common complication that can occur, leading to permanent disability and is costly to the patient and healthcare system. In addition, amidst the opioid epidemic, the risk of increased opioid use in patients with CRPS prompts …
Three Cancellous Screws Versus Four Cancellous Screws for Femoral Neck Fixation
This study is a prospective randomized controlled clinical study. Patients with femoral neck fracture (AO classification 31-B) will be randomly divided into three-screw fixation group and four-screw fixation group. The internal fixation failure rate (IFFR) and functional outcomes of the two groups will be compared and the patients will be …
Prediction of Mortality and Morbidity After Hip Fracture Using Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW)
Hip fracture is a common injury in older adults and is often associated with serious complications, longer hospital stays, and increased risk of death. One of the most important causes of poor outcomes after hip fracture surgery is infection, including severe infections such as sepsis. Early identification of patients at …
Blue Light as an Anti-inflammatory and Analgesic Strategy in Thoracic Trauma
The main goal of this clinical trial is to learn if light therapy improves pain and inflammation in adults with painful rib fractures. The main question it aims to answer is: Does bright blue light therapy in addition to standard pain treatments improve pain with breathing in adults with painful …
Intramedullary Bone Grafting for Open Tibial Shaft Fractures
This study will examine if there is a difference between the time to full union between the control group and the study group. Each group will be composed of patients who have an open fracture in the mid tibia. Both groups will undergo primary fixation via reamed intramedulary nailing (IMN), …
