Pre-operative Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training in Total Joint Surgery
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate effects of respiratory strengthening exercises on breathing function, in people who have orthopedic surgery. It is known that breathing function decreases for a few days after surgery. in In this study, we want to see if exercising before surgery strengthens the …
Impact of Early ADL Participation on Outcomes Post DRF
This study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT). This RCT which will study the effect of performing daily activities early after a distal radius fracture being treated conservatively in a cast. This study will have two groups. The experimental group will watch a video and be given a handout on …
Ropivacaine Concentration and Rebound Pain
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if the concentration of a local anesthetic (ropivacaine) in peripheral nerve block is related to the severness of pain after surgery of distal radius fractures in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is concentration of ropivacaine related to …
"Supracondylar Radial Nerve Block Guided by Ultrasound Versus Hematoma Block for Analgesic Management in Closed Reduction of Distal Radius Fractures"
Non-surgical treatment with closed reduction and immobilization using a splint or cast is the preferred approach for stable distal radius fractures, particularly in elderly patients. It is also the initial intervention for displaced fractures with a surgical indication before the procedure, aiming to reduce edema, manage pain, and prevent associated …
PDIFFIR: Geriatric Periprosthetic DIstal Femur: FIxation Versus Replacement
Periprosthetic distal femur fractures are a significant source of morbidity and mortality for elderly patients. One treatment option involved a surgical fixation with plates or nails, screws and cables/wires along the side of your fractured bone. The second method consists in replacing your knee joint with an artificial knee prosthesis …
Prophylactic Antibiotic Coated Nail to Prevent Infection: A Clinical Trial
This prospective randomized clinical trial will compare outcomes between patients treated primarily with a prophylactic antibiotic coated nail and those treated with traditional standard of care intramedullary (IM) nailing.
Intramedullary Calcium Sulfate Antibiotic Depot
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to study the best treatment for open lower leg fractures to prevent infection. The main questions it aims to answer is if treating tibia fracture patients with a calcium sulfate antibiotic depot is better at preventing infection that the standard of care.
Evaluation of the Diagnostic and Therapeutic Value of Tissue Ultrafiltration in Patients at Risk of Acute Compartment Syndrome (ACS)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if tissue ultrafiltration (TUF) catheters can reduce intramuscular pressure and prevent acute compartment syndrome (ACS) in adults ages 18-60 with severe proximal tibia or tibial shaft fractures. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will intramuscular pressure (IMP) be lower …
Quantitative and Clinical Assessment of Flexor Tendon Gliding Following Application of a Bioresorbable Hydrogel: A Prospective, Randomized Study in Patients Undergoing Distal Radius Fracture Repair
The investigators will be evaluating the use of versawrap in the setting of distal radius fractures by placing membrane between plate and flexor tendons. Investigators will then evaluate tendon gliding morphology and number of tendon ruptures
Opioid Management for Discharged Emergency Department Patients
The goal of this study is to analyze the use of the Addinex system for opioid dispensing after ambulatory care to determine whether it will reduce opioid consumption, increase pill disposal, show variables that may predict opioid consumption, and determine whether this intervention is acceptable to patients.
