Posterior Tibial Nerve PRF for Painful Calcaneal Fracture
Patients who underwent pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) treatment of the posterior tibial nerve under ultrasound guidance, which is routinely performed in our clinic for severe heel pain following a calcaneal fracture, were evaluated through interviews. The assessment was conducted using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain and the American Orthopaedic …
The Treatment of Type I Open Fractures in Pediatrics
Open fractures are frequently encountered in orthopaedics. Treatment usually calls for a formal, operative procedure in which the bone is exposed, foreign tissue is debrided and the wound is irrigated. While this is the current standard of care, not all open fractures are equal. In retrospective studies, centers are reporting …
Geriatric Acetabular fracTures: Open Reduction Internal Fixation Versus Replacement
Management of acetabular (hip) fractures in the geriatric population can be very challenging because of pre-existing medical comorbidities, pre-existing osteoporosis and increased risk of mortality. The two most common treatment options for acetabular fractures are either surgical fixation using plates and screws to hold the fractured pieces in the correct …
Is Sensorimotor Training Effective Following a Distal Radius Fracture?
The purpose of this study is to compare the short-term outcomes of individuals who have surgery (volar plate) for a wrist (distal radius) fracture who have routine hand therapy treatment versus routine hand therapy treatment and sensorimotor activities. Individuals who meet inclusion criteria at the facilities collecting data will be …
Continuous Passive Motion Following Fixation of Pelvic and Knee Fractures
The investigators will directly compare the visual analog scale scores and narcotic pain medication requirements in the patients who have continuous passive motion (CPM) versus those who do not during the course of the hospital admission following an open reduction internal fixation surgery for acetabular fracture, supracondylar femur fracture, or …
High-Strength Suture vs. Traditional Tension Band for Patellar Fractures
This prospective cohort study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of high-strength suture modified tension band fixation in treating patellar fractures and compare it with traditional screw-cable tension band fixation. Adult patients (18-55 years) with AO/OTA 34-C1 or 34-C2 patellar fractures will be enrolled and followed for 12 months. Primary …
Wrist Fractures Management With Arthroscopic Assistance Under Walant - Exploratory Study
Wrist articular fractures are more difficult to treat and rehabilitation takes longer. Furthermore, these joint fractures are frequently accompanied by ligament lesions of the carpal bones. For these reasons, it is strongly recommended to check the interior of the wrist joint. This check can be done with wrist arthroscopy. Therefore, …
Motivational Interventions and Physical Exercise in Patients With Fragility Fracture
Patients with a fragility fracture are twice as likely to have future fractures compared to their non-fractured peers. Furthermore, the 30% who suffer a fragility fracture do not regain the level of functioning in terms of activities of daily living after one year. A recent ecological study, in several European …
Inmobilization With Compression Bandage vs Antebraquial Splint in Distal Radius Fractures
The aim of this study is to compare functional and radiological results in two groups of distal radius fractures treated with internal fixation with locking plate, and immobilized with antebrachial splint or compression bandage for 3 weeks.
Lithium for Fracture Treatment: a Double Blind Randomized Controlled Trial (LiFT)
This is a study designed to see if a low dose of Lithium treatment, taken for 2 weeks, can improve fracture healing and improve patients' function and productivity.
