Naringenin Supplementation in Bone Fracture Patients
Fractures of the lower extremities represent a significant proportion of injuries sustained by polytrauma patients, with a notable association with prolonged hospitalization, chronic disability, and impaired physical functioning. The occurrence of surgical site infections (SSI) represents a significant threat to the efficacy of osteosynthesis procedures. As with other traumas and …
Assessing Bone Fracture Healing Effect of Almonds
Femur and tibia shaft fractures are common after trauma with a burden of 5% and 20% respectively. Clinicians recommend costly bone strengthening drugs/supplements while treating bone fractures. These drugs have side effects and are costly due to which patients skip these supplements. Routinely prescribed vitamin D have known toxicity. To …
Complications Related To Activity After Pediatric Both Bone Fractures: Exploring the Effects of Activity on Fracture Displacement
The goal of this randomized clinical study is to understand the effect of activity on the re-displacement of pediatric forearm fractures in patients ages 8-18 years old excluding those with known metabolic bone disease or obvious refracture. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does increased activity lead …
Weber B Ankle Fractures With Associated Posterior Malleolus Fracture
Ankle fractures constitute 9% of all fractures and have an incidence of approximately 187 per 100,000 persons per year in Norway. A posterior malleolar fragment (PMF), located on the lower backside of the tibia, is present in up to 46% of Weber B. Weber B fractures are the most common …
Evaluation of Fracture Migration After Internal Fixation of Femoral Neck Fractures in Younger Adults: A Clinical RCT Using RSA
The goal of the clinical trial is to compare different surgical methods for internal fixation of femoral neck fractures in younger adults. The main question it aims to answer is: Is internal fixation with the novel implant consisting of three angle stable screws locked together by a plate equal to …
Percutaneous Vertebroplasty Vs. Sham for Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures Focusing on Pain and Economy.
The purpose of this randomized double-blind clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in relieving severe pain in patients with MRI-verified acute or sub-acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) compared to sham as well as examine the socio-economic implications associated with performing vertebroplasty. The primary outcome …
Randomized Controlled Trial for Ankle Fracture Pain Control
This project is a multicenter, three armed, prospective randomized control trial studying the effectiveness of a long-acting local anesthetic "cocktail" in patients undergoing operative fixation of ankle fractures.
Immediate Vs. Delayed Weight Bearing Postoperative Protocol in Diabetic Ankle Fractures
Operatively managed diabetic ankle fractures have significant risk for complications. The cause for failure is likely multifactorial, however, a component of failure has to do with an inability to process pain and pressure normally. This loss of protective sensation allows for an increase in abnormal stresses placed on the recently …
The Benefit of Repairing the Deltoid Ligament in Unstable Ankle Fractures
Ankle fractures occur in 1 out of 800 persons a year and is a common injury. The deltoid ligament is necessary for the stability of the joint and guides choice of treatment. Cadaveric studies have shown that deltoid ligament repair gives more stability than the osteosynthesis of the lateral malleolus …
Efficacy and Clinical Feasibility of the Ankle Muscle Power (AMP) Program for Return to Duty After an Ankle Fracture
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different standardized physical therapy rehabilitation programs on outcomes after an ankle fracture. Researchers will evaluate to see if the addition of ankle muscle power exercises (AMP) improve program adherence, muscle function, physical performance, and patient reported outcomes. The main questions …
