Active clinical trials for "Femoral Neck Fractures"

The investigators are going to evaluate if periarticular corticosteroid injection during endoprothesis implantation can lead to any advantage to the patients, namely if it can reduce post-operative pain, lenght and cost of hospitalisation, use of analgesics drugs.

This study is a prospective randomized controlled clinical study. Patients with femoral neck fracture (AO classification 31-B) will be randomly divided into three-screw fixation group and four-screw fixation group. The internal fixation failure rate (IFFR) and functional outcomes of the two groups will be compared and the patients will be followed up to 2 years after surgery.

This study will examine the efficacy of Liposomal Bupivacaine (Exparel) in hip fracture patients undergoing hip hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures through a posterior approach. Post-operative measures will be assessing pain, overall opiate use, delirium, time-to-ambulation and discharge status.

Our aim is to develop a strategy that reduces the risk of dislocations after total hip arthroplasty surgery performed due to femoral neck fracture. We therefore perform a register-nested, pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of dual mobility cups that were designed to minimize the risk of dislocation in the large and fragile group of elderly patients with femoral neck fractures.

This prospective multicenter cohort study is to compare the post-operative implant failure rate between the patients with femoral neck fracture (AO classification 31-B) using Femoral Neck System (FNS) versus Multiple Cancellous Screws (MCS) at 2-year follow up. The patients are divided into the FNS group and the MCS group according to the internal fixation they choose. The internal fixation failure rate (IFFR) and differences in fracture prognosis of the two groups will be compared. Obtain clinical data of FNS in the Chinese population, and verify the safety and efficacy of FNS for patients with femoral neck fracture.

This is the world's first national orthopedic randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving 19 out of 21 departments in Denmark. Each year, 7,000 patients suffer a hip fracture. This is a severe condition leading to 25% mortality after 1 year and 40% do not recover to the same functional level. The aim is to compare two surgical treatment methods (metal fixation versus artificial hip) in patients above 65 years with an undisplaced femoral neck fracture. The hypothesis is that even though an artificial hip is a larger surgical procedure than metal fixation of the broken bone, the artificial hip is more stable with less pain due the lack of a healing broken bone and therefore leads to a better and quicker mobilization after surgery. Better mobilization is one of the most important factors for decreasing mortality. We have chosen a pragmatic RCT design by using the local departmental implants. We hope that the knowledge from this study will therefore easily be implemented afterwards.

In February 2021, Altior Trauma Innovations™ announced that it had received 501(k) FDA approval for the Artemis Proximal Femoral Nail (PFN) System for internal fixation of intertrochanteric femur fractures. The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate safety, efficacy and feasibility of the Artemis PFN implant for operative fixation of intertrochanteric femoral fractures, compared to matched historical control patients who received other implants.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Insignia™ Hip Stem for global market access and post-market clinical follow-up up to 10 years postoperative.

Two-year (2 year) information regarding the performance of the commercially available Actis™ Total Hip System in order to obtain and evaluate the clinical outcomes on a series of cementless primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) and hemi-hip arthroplasty procedures using clinical, radiographic and device and procedure related adverse event assessments.

Dislocated femoral neck fractures are routinely treated with cemented hemiartroplasty and the direct lateral approach (Hardinge) has commonly been used in Norway. The investigators have lately witnessed a significant change in the prefered surgical approaches in total hip arthroplasty (THA) in favor of the posterior and anterior approaches. The direct lateral approach has in THA, more or less, been abandoned in Norway. Numerous studies have reported superior results using the posterior and anterior approahes compared to the lateral approach.
