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.
Deep Breathing Exercises and Incentive Spirometry After Rib Fracture
Chest trauma patients constitute approximately 10-15% of all traffic accidents. Many complications may occur after chest trauma, including rib fracture, pneumothorax, hemothorax, lung contusion, flail chest, atelectasis, respiratory failure and even death. Atelectasis is the most common of these complications. This study planned to investigate the effects of spirometry and …
ORthosis vs No Orthosis After Surgically Treated Traumatic Thoracolumbar Fractures
Rationale: There is no evidence in the current literature regarding the additional value of an orthosis after surgically treated thoracolumbar spine fractures. Objective: To assess whether an orthosis provides additional pain relief compared to no orthosis after posteriorly fixated thoracolumbar spine fractures. Primary outcome is difference in pain at six …
Ultrasound Guided Serratus Anterior Plane Block for Rib Fractures
This study is a single center, randomized controlled trial examining the effect of serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) on pain, PIC scores and other clinical outcomes in emergency department patients with multiple rib fractures in comparison to the use of analgesic medication alone. Objectives Compare SAPB performed in the ED …
Local Anesthesia for Facial Fractures
The study is a double-blind randomized, placebo controlled trial examining the impact of perioperative bupivacaine nerve block on PACU recovery metrics. Patients with operative facial fractures are randomized to receive either bupivacaine or saline injections prior to the anesthesia emergence.
Zoledronate Early to Hip Fracture Patients - Safe and Effective?
To prevent hip fracture patients for having another fracture, secondary fracture preventing medication should be given as soon as possible. Zoledronate is the most efficient bisphosphonate and is given as an intravenous infusion once yearly. However, the appropriate time to initiate zoledronate treatment after a hip fracture has not yet …
Blood Flow Restriction Training in Patients With Lower Extremity Fractures
This study will look at the effect of using a blood flow restriction device during low load strengthening exercises on patients with tibial shaft fractures, compared to patients performing exercise without the device. The study will compare muscle strength, muscle size, fracture healing, and return to normal function between the …
Breathing Exercise for Rib Fracture
Respiratory physiotherapy is routinely performed after thoracic surgery operations to increase lung expansion and prevent pulmonary complications such as atelectasis and pneumonia. It is a controversial issue whether respiratory physiotherapy reduces pulmonary complications in rib fractures. In our study, patients with rib fractures will be divided into two groups. In …
Kinesiotaping in Trauma
Rationale: Patients with acute traumatic injury to the shoulder or chest wall in de Emergency Department (ED) usually have intense pain. The patient normally is treated with oral analgesics as standard care and in shoulder injury with a sling. Pain of the shoulder or chest wall increases with movement of …
Examination of Vertebroplasty in Addition to Regular Treatment of Patients With Multiple Myeloma.
Patients with newly diagnosed or known multiple myeloma with newly diagnosed vertebral lesion(s) will be invited to participate in a cross-sectoral randomized controlled trial. The trial will compare two groups of patients which either receive regular medical treatment of their vertebral lesion(s) or vertebroplasty in addition to regular medical treatment. …
