Active clinical trials for "Fractures, Bone"

Because the rate of non union of long bone in lower extremities specially in tibia in this two last decade due to malnutrition and smoking and other risk factors was increased, so many patient in our country suffer from non union on the other hand it seems that the use of the mesenchymal stem cells can irritate the union rate. Therefore the investigators decide to inject the mesenchymal stem cell derived from iliac bone marrow after centrifuge with ficoll procedure to non union site in patient that are resistant to other treatment. Then the investigators will follow the patient with monthly radiography and evaluate the callus volume and clinical union and any side effect of this treatment.clinical union consider to relief pain in non union site and be stable in examination.

fractures of upper limb induce much pain . A lot of modalities are available to alleviate pain. fracture hematoma block, and intravenous regional anesthesia seem to be cost effective and attractive options

The purpose of this study is to determine wether postoperative immobilization is effective in controlling the pain of patients with intra-articular distal radius fractures treated with volar locking plate fixation. The study hypotheses is that postoperative immobilization does not enhance the analgesia of these patients.

Intertrochanteric hip fractures typically result in blood loss from the fracture and require surgery that can cause further blood loss. This study is being done to look at a medication called tranexamic acid which may reduce blood loss and the need for blood transfusions associated with surgery.

A single center, parallel group, prospective, randomized clinical trial was conducted at the department of Hand Surgery, ABC (Andre, Bernardo, Caetano) Foundation University Hospital, Santo Andre, Brazil. Two implants used for fixation in closed reduction of distal radius fractures were compared: the bridging dynamic Galaxy Wrist external fixator (Orthofix®, Verona) and the non-bridging Galaxy wrist external fixator system (Orthofix®, Verona).

This study will be done to evaluate the effect of load dose of vitamin D compared to the dose of usual clinical practice, in improving mobility and reducing disability in older people following a hip fracture.

This is a prospective, randomized study looking at the effect that a long-acting local anesthetic has on pain control in patients having surgery for hip fractures. The investigators are conducting the study to see if that reduces the amount of pain medicine needed after surgery, and if it reduces other medical complications after surgery.

Traumatic rib fractures are common, resulting from significant forces impacting on the chest, and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Acute pain management in inpatients with traumatic rib fractures has been highly emphasized by practitioners. Inappropriate analgesia may cause respiratory complications, including pneumonia, atelectasis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and prolonged hospital stay. These may be prevented or reduced by good analgesic therapy. This study is aimed to investigate the analgesic effect of acupuncture on traumatic rib fractures.

This study will compare two standard treatments in acute stable traumatic vertebral fractures (types A1 and A3.1 by Magerl Classification). The two treatments are as follows: SpineJack® system Conservative Orthopedic Management consisting of brace and pain medication.

Fracture femur is a common injury which is associated with excruciating pain. Positioning for neuraxial blocks is always challenging because even slight overriding of the fracture ends is intensely painful .It can causing major patient distress which accompanied by well-known physiological sequelae such as sympathetic activation causing tachycardia, hypotension, and increased cardiac work that may compromise high-risk cardiac patients. Fascia iliaca compartment block is highly effective in blocking lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh and femoral nerve. Fascia iliaca compartment block is not only easy to perform but it is also associated with minimal risk as the local anesthetic is injected at a safe distance from the femoral artery and femoral nerve. It is always safe to perform the fascia iliaca compartment block prior to spinal anesthesia as the patient can respond during administration of the local anesthetic and can prevent intra-neuronal injections
