What Laxative Should be Used After Hip Fracture Surgery?
To conduct a randomized clinical trial to determine how best to prevent constipation after hip fracture surgery using laxatives.
Conventional Spinal Anaesthesia Versus Fractional Spinal Anaesthesia on Hemodynamics
compare the systemic haemodynamic response to fractional spinal anaesthesia versus conventional spinal anaesthesia , in a group of elderly and comorbid patients with hip fracture.
Effects of Music on Acute Postoperative Pain Intensity and Mobility After Fragility Hip Fracture
Music has been proven to be beneficial in postoperative care by reducing pain. The effects of music listening to reduce pain postoperatively are well studied among cases undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery. No study has been conducted focusing on pain control among cases with fragility hip fractures in an acute ward …
HIP Fracture Oral ThromboPROphylaxis (Hip PRO Pilot)
As our Canadian population ages, hip fractures in these older adults are becoming very common. The best treatment for the majority of these injuries is urgent treatment with surgery. However, the hip fracture itself, the surgery required, and the immobility following these injuries are all risk factors for developing blood …
Effect of Tranexamic Acid (TXA) on Reduction of Postoperative Blood Transfusion
Tranexamic Acid (TXA) is an antifibrolytic medication used in total hip and knee arthroplasty to reduce the need for intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusions. Limited research is available on its use in hip fracture patients. We hypothesize that the use of TXA preoperatively, perioperatively, and postoperatively will decrease blood loss …
Rehabilitation After a Hip Fracture: the Effects of Dietary Protein and Exercise on Bone and Muscle Health and Quality of Life
Hip fractures often lead to functional limitations, loss of independence, weight loss and decreased well-being. Only half of the patients regain their functional level and 24% die within the following year. Financial consequences are significant due to costly surgery and long-term care. Hip fracture incidence is expected to increase sharply …
Comparison of Low-dose Spiral Breast CT With MRI in Major Indications of MRI for Breast Diagnostics
Comparison between two diagnostic modalities for breast cancer diagnosis. Two different imaging systems are compared to evaluate the performance of the two systems
3D Planned Surgery of Acute Fractures Performed With 3D Guides Printed at the Point of Care
The aim of the study is to assess the accuracy of fracture reduction performed with surgical guides designed and 3D printed at the point of care in comminuted fractures of femur- and tibia-shaft.
Caregivers' eCourse for Recovery After Hip Fracture
In this two part study, we will seek 1. general feedback on the feasibility of an online education and skill development program for family/caregivers of older adults recovering from a surgically repaired low-trauma hip fracture. We will also 2. test its feasibility and acceptability with family caregivers.
Elbow Hemiarthroplasty Versus ORIF for Distal Humeral Fractures
This is a randomized control trial comparing the outcome of ORIF (open reduction and internal fixation) with EHA (elbow hemiarthroplasty) for distal humeral fractures in patients aged 50 years or above.
