3D Resin Printed Fracture Models for Anatomy Education
Resin printing is an emerging technology with a wide array of applications. This research seeks to assess the practicality of incorporating 3D resin printed models into anatomy education while investigating how fractured models impact students' decision-making and quiz scores.
Nocturnal Hypoxia in Geriatric Patients After Hip Fracture
Delirium is a common complication following hip fracture surgery (HFS) in older people. Postoperative hypoxia has also been associated with delirium, but not specifically in geriatric patients. The aim of the study is to demonstrate that post-operative hypoxia is associated with in-hospital complications in patients with HFS.
Treatment of Intra-articular Fractures of the Mandibular Condyle
Intra-articular fractures of the mandibular condyle ((IAFC) are usually treated by means of physical therapy with or without transient maxillo-mandibular fixation (conservative or closed treatment). However, this can lead to incomplete manducatory function recovery due to limited mandibular mobility. During the last 15 years, a growing interest has emerged for …
Weight-Bearing CT and Conventional Periprosthetic Distal Knee Fractures
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a surgical procedure commonly conducted for patients with end-stage knee osteoarthritis, often leading to improved pain relief and function. However, for patients that have suffered an associated periprosthetic fracture, a broken bone that occurs around the implant of a TKA, they may receive sub-optical care …
Impact of a Clinical Pathway for Pelvic Fragility Fractures
Patients with pelvic fragility fractures suffer from high morbidity and mortality rates. Despite the high incidence of these injuries, there is currently no regional or nationwide treatment protocol which results in a wide variety of clinical practice. New insights in treatment strategies, such as early diagnosis and minimal invasive operative …
Permissive Weight Bearing in Displaced Intra-articular Calcaneal Fractures
The goal of the proposed study is to define the optimal rehabilitation for trauma patients with Displaced Intra-articular Calcaneal Fractures, either Permissive Weight Bearing (PWB) or Restricted Weight Bearing (RWB) regarding functional outcomes, health related quality of life, radiographical differences, cost-effectiveness and complications.
The Utilization of Ultrasound to Diagnose Pediatric Elbow Fractures
The goal of this intervention trial is to learn if a ultrasound diagnosis of elbow fractures can improve care in pediatric patients seen in the emergency room. The main questions it aims to answer are: The primary outcomes measured are cost of the emergency visit, radiation exposure, time spent in …
Single Versus Dual Implant Fixation of Distal Femur Fractures
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two types of surgical fixation in patients with specific kinds of distal femur fractures. The main questions it aims to answer is which operation for distal femur fractures is better for efficient return to work and everyday activities.
Intravenous vs Oral Acetaminophen in Postoperative Hip Fracture Adult Patients
The INTACT-HIP trial study will evaluate feasibility of conducting a randomized, double-blinded controlled trial comparing postoperative treatment with intravenous (IV) acetaminophen versus oral acetaminophen, in older adults undergoing hip fracture surgery. The results of this feasibility trial will be used to inform designing a larger, multi-center, randomized controlled trial to …
Regional Versus General Anesthesia for Hip Fracture and Postoperative Oxygenation
With this study, the investigators intend to measure oxygen saturation before and after hip surgery in the context of proximal femur fracture, comparing two types of anesthesia (general or spinal). The investigators also intend to study the effects of the two anesthetic techniques on sleep apnea, delirium, respiratory complications, and …
