UltrasouNd-guided Percutaneous Intercostal Nerve Cryoneurolysis for Analgesia Following Traumatic Rib Fracture
Traumatic rib fractures (i.e., broken ribs caused by a physical injury) are common and very painful. They also often lead to serious complications, more time spent in hospital, and can even lead to death. Even after rib fractures have healed, they can lead to long-term pain and a lower quality …
Early NMES and Mirror Therapy Interventions During Immobilization of Distal Radius Fracture
Current practice for distal radius fractures is to begin rehabilitation after immobilization to remediate the resulting impairments. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation and mirror therapy are strategies that integrate neurological and musculoskeletal activation, that may be beneficial for mitigating the resulting impairments if applied during immobilization. The study aim is to determine …
Assessment of the Feasibility of Using a Preoperative Surgical Fracture Analysis Tool
This study aims to evaluate a preoperative fracture analysis tool that uses 3D visualization and biomechanical modeling to assist surgeons in planning screw and plate fixation for complex tibial plateau fractures. By simulating different fixation strategies based on patient-specific CT data, the tool provides insights into construct stability, potentially improving …
Hip Fracture Surgery Timing and Blood Transfusion Risk in Patients on DOACs
This study looks at patients with hip fractures who are taking direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), a type of blood thinner. In many hospitals, surgery for these patients is delayed because of concerns about bleeding, but waiting longer can also increase risks such as complications and longer hospital stays. The purpose …
PO vs IV Antibiotics for the Treatment of Infected Nonunion of Fractures After Fixation
This is a Phase III clinical randomized control trial to investigate differences between patient with an infected nonunion treated by PO vs. IV antibiotics. The study population will be 250 patients, 18 years or older, being treated for infected nonunion after internal fixation of a fracture with a segmental defect …
Randomized Control Trial, Cryoablation as an Adjunct to Surgical Stabilization of Rib Fractures
To determine if patients with intraoperative cryoablation have better analgesia results compared to the control group of Surgical Stabilization of Rib Fractures (SSRF) without cryoablation
Remimazolam vs. Midazolam for Sedation and Cognitive Outcomes in Orthopedic Surgery
This study aims to compare two medications, Remimazolam and Midazolam, used for sedation during orthopedic surgeries performed under regional anesthesia. We want to find out which medication provides better sedation during the procedure and which one affects early recovery of brain function after surgery. Older adults (65 years and above) …
Use of Weightbearing Radiographs to Determine Treatment of bi- and Trimalleolar Ankle Fractures
The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes after non-operative treatment of weightbearing stable bi-and trimalleolar ankle fractures.
Conservative Therapy of Proximal Phalanx Fractures - Comparing the Lucerne Cast With Finger Splinting
The purpose of this prospective randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate if the lucerne cast leads to a better functional outcome than a forearm cast with a finger splint in patients with a proximal phalanx fracture.
Nonopioid Pain Control Regimen After Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of Traumatic Fractures
An open reduction and internal fixation is a painful procedure requiring intensive postoperative pain management. Traditionally, opioid analgesia has been the gold standard for postoperative pain control. However, given the harmful side effect profile and opioid epidemic in the United States, it is advantageous to use alternate forms of analgesia. …
