Active clinical trials for "Fractures, Bone"

Substudy and continuation of HEMI-SAB-UUS (NCT00491673) Study on radiostereometric measurements of acetabular wear in bipolar hemiarthroplasties and measurements of periprosthetic bone mineral density in cemented and uncemented hemiarthroplasties in patients with femoral neck fractures. Null hypothesis: No difference in acetabular wear or in bone mineral density changes between cemented and uncemented hemiarthroplasties

to compare the clinical & radiological outcomes of hook plate & tightrope fixation in fracture of lateral third clavicle.

Randomized controlled trial comparing the standard haematoma block used for reduction of distal forearm fractures in the Emergency Department with ultrasound guided nerveblocks. The investigators hypothesize that ultrasound guided blocking of the radial and median nerves will improve fracture reduction satisfaction for the true Colles' fractures and improve analgesia for reduction of all distal forearm fracture types compared to the standard haematoma block.

Tibial eminence fracture, a bony avulsion of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) from its insertion on the intercondylar eminence,1 was first described by Poncet in 1875. 2 Also known as tibial spine fractures, these injuries occur most commonly in skeletally immature patients between the ages of 8 and 14 years

The purpose with the study is to evalute if early mobilsation after surgery in patients vid elbow frakture-dislocation may lead to better armfunction and reduce common complications as stiffnes in the elbow. After surgery patients will be randomised to either early mobilisation (exercise treatment 3 Days after surgery) or ordinary treatment (plaster and exercise treatment 3 weeks after surgery).

Acetabular fractures are articular fractures involving the hip joint that needs anatomical reduction and a strict long follow up after fixation.

Patients who underwent operative treatment of an ankle fracture with or without following removal of the osteosynthetic material are examined by a specific ankle provocation test, a questionnaire and X-Rays to evaluate the clinical, functional and radiological outcome compared to a healthy control group

Phase III, prospective, randomized, parallel, double blind, placebo-controlled study to determine whether Teriparatide can accelerate bone healing in unstable intertrochanteric fracture patients treated with Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA) assessed by radiographic and clinical outcomes.

This study intends to determine the best surgical treatment for humeral shaft fractures. One third of the patients will be treated with open reduction and internal fixation with plate; one third, with bridge plate technique and the remaining third with locked intramedullary nail.

In major orthopaedic surgery of the lower extremities both continuous spinal anesthesia (CSA) and combined spinal epidural anesthesia (CSE) are safe and reliable anaesthesia methods. Our results suggest that both continuous spinal anesthesia and combined spinal epidural anesthesia provide good surgical conditions with a low incidence of complications. The sensory block level and hemodynamic changes were lesser with CSA.
