Effect of Tobacco Heating System (THS) on Closed Tibia Fracture Healing
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the role of switching from cigarette smoking (CS) to tobacco heat system (THS) on the clinical outcome of closed tibia fractures from smokers' orthopedic patients. Validated and standardized assays, medical state and self-reported outcomes will be evaluated in orthopedic patients' smokers …
Pilon Fracture With Intra-articular Injection of N-Acetylcysteine (Pilon NAC)
High energy intra-articular fractures of the distal tibia, or Pilon fracture, is a devastating injury with multiple short and long term complications. The incidence of these injuries is increasing as survival rates after motor vehicle collisions increase. The current standard of care for high energy pilon fractures is to place …
Evaluation of STIMULAN Device and AI Model in Preventing Fracture Infections
This is a prospective, single-center, double-blind randomized clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of the extended-release antibiotic device, STIMULAN, in preventing infections in patients with open fractures. The study will enroll 40 patients from IRCSS San Raffaele's Emergency Department and Orthopedics and Traumatology Unit. Patients will be …
Tibio-talo-calcaneal Fusion by Hindfoot Nail Versus Open Reduction and Internal Fixation in Treatment of Complex Fractures Distal Tibial and Fragility Ankle Fractures in Elderly
Tibiotalar calcaneal fusion by hindfoot nail Vs open reduction and internal fixation in treatment of complex distal tibial fractures and ankle fragility ankle fractures in elderly
Perioperative Glucocorticoid Administration in the Treatment of Adult Distal Radius Fractures
The purpose of this investigation is to compare functional outcome measures and range of motion for patients receiving glucocorticoid (GC) injections versus those not receiving GCs for the treatment of distal radius fractures. The investigators hypothesize that patients who receive GC will have improved ROM and functional outcome measures compared …
Casting Versus Flexible Intramedullary Nailing in Displaced Pediatric Forearm Shaft Fractures
The forearm is the most common fracture location in children, with an increasing incidence. Displaced forearm shaft fractures have traditionally been treated with closed reduction and cast immobilization. Diaphyseal fractures in children have poor remodeling capacity, and malunion can thus cause permanent cosmetic and functional disability. Internal fixation especially with …
Casting Versus Percutaneus Pinning Treatment of Pediatric Overriding Distal Forearm Fractures
This is a randomized controlled trial comparing casting in finger-trap traction without reduction versus closed reduction and percutaneous pin fixation of dorsally displaced, overriding distal metaphyseal radius fractures in under eleven years old children.
Serotonin-norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor in Prophylaxis of Depression Following Fragility Fractures
The goal of this pilot study is to learn about the feasibility about prescribing anti-depressants at discharge in patients aged 50 years and older with a lower extremity fragility fracture. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the obstacles to enrolling patients and prescribing anti-depressants among older …
IM Screw vs. K-wire Fixation of Proximal/Middle Phalanx Fractures
When people break their fingers, sometimes surgery is needed to align the bones to heal them properly. There are different ways to fix broken bones in hands, such as plates, pins, or screws. Each method has pros and cons; fixing a broken bone with plates is usually a larger surgery …
Fascia Iliaca Block Versus Intravenous Dexmedetomidine and Ketamine for Positioning Fracture Femur
Proximal femur fractures are one of the commonest fractures especially in the elderly population. Early surgical fixation is the best analgesic for associated pain. Spinal anesthesia has been favored by many anesthesiologists due to the simplicity of the technique, the better analgesic profile, and the lower incidence of complications like …
