Active clinical trials for "Fractures, Bone"

Traumatic emergencies are the primary reason for consultation in emergency departments and standard radiography is the primary imaging exam for osteoarticular trauma. However, with the increase in the number of patients admitted to emergency departments and thus the increased workload for emergency room attendants, Interpretation of radiographs in trauma emergencies is made more difficult, resulting in a high risk of misinterpretation. The growing presence of artificial intelligence in the medical field, notably through the involvement of diagnostic software on imageries, makes its use more relevant in the aid of the replay of osteoarticular imageries. A recent meta-analysis of 32 studies evaluating the performance of artificial intelligence in fracture detection found comparable performance between experienced radiologists and AI-based diagnosis. However, these were mainly retrospective studies, and thus more distant from the reality of its use in a care stream such as emergencies. The objective of this study is therefore to prospectively validate the use of artificial intelligence software during its implementation in an emergency department for patients admitted for a suspicion of osteoarticular trauma.

compare unilateral epidural anesthesia versus femoral/sciatic nerve block by ultrasound guided as anesthetic technique for cases with low ejection fraction undergoing insertion of nail tibia for fixation of fracture shaft tibia.

Will patients who suffer complex humerus fractures have better functional outcomes and less implant failure with shoulder replacement (reverse total shoulder arthroplasty, RTSA) compared to shoulder repair (open reduction and internal fixation, ORIF)?

The objective of this study is to systematically document the clinical outcomes of THP Hip Fracture Plating System when used to treat intracapsular and intertrochanteric fractures.

The study is a blind randomized clinical study on patients with midface maxillofacial fractures coming to Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. The subject is the fracture line who met the inclusion criteria and randomly allocated into the study (locally-made miniplate and screw) and control (BIOMET® miniplate and screw) group through a predetermined randomization list. The healing process is follow up using non-contrast head computed tomography immediately after surgery as a baseline, and 3 months post-op. Afterward, a radiologist consultant as a blinded evaluator will evaluate the score of bone density, and screw loosening, while local tissue reaction after fixation evaluates during the patient's visit outpatient clinic. All scores from points of the evaluation group will be collected and going to statistically evaluated using independent t-test or Mann Whitney test depending on the distribution of the data

Aim: Determine if external fixation decreases soft tissue complications compared to splinting. Determine if external fixation decreases time to definitive surgical stabilization and improves final fixation compared to splinting. Determine if external fixation improves functional outcomes as evaluated by validated functional scoring systems. Hypothesis: External fixation improves definitive fixation and functional outcomes of acute calcaneal fractures with decreased complication rates compared to splinting

Intertrochanteric fractures are commonly stabilized using an intramedullary nail with a lag screw that enters the lateral cortex of the femur. This lag screw commonly protrudes during the healing process and may cause implant related pain. This study will help determine if implant related pain is different depending to the lag screw design.

The aim of this study is to determine whether motor imagery training during the immobilisation period in patients with a distal radius fracture, results in an improved functional outcome compared to patients who do not perform motor imagery.

The purpose of this study is to prospectively compare post-operative pain relief in pediatric patients undergoing traumatic femur fracture repair who have received either a femoral nerve block with a lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block or a standard anesthetic for analgesia.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of Dynamic Locking Screws (DLS) used to stabilize the shaft component of distal femur fractures in comparison to standard locking screws (SLS). The hypothesis is that DLS will lead to better functional outcomes (WOMAC score) due to increased and more symmetrical callus formation and fewer non-unions.
