Clinical Outcome Comparison Between Medial and Lateral Offset Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty

Rotator Cuff TearProximal Humerus Fractures2 more

The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate two FDA approved implant designs for the Tornier Reverse Shoulder arthroplasty. The small difference in design is the amount of offset each implant has. This offset may improve clinical outcomes in the patient population. There have been no clinical comparative studies between these two designs in the literature to date. We would like to follow these patients for two years after implantation of the reverse shoulder and evaluate their radiographs, pain scores, and shoulder functional scores. this would be the first randomized prospective single blinded study of its kind.

A Clinical Investigation of the Copeland™ Humeral Resurfacing Head

OsteoarthritisRheumatoid Arthritis2 more

The purpose of this study is to perform a five-year, prospective evaluation of the Copeland™ Humeral Resurfacing Head Prosthesis for outcome and durability. Relief of pain and restoration of function will determine long-term clinical outcome while durability will be measured by the absence of revisions.

Outcome of Proximal Humerus Fractures :Anatomic Neck Fractures vs Surgical Neck Fractures

Humeral FractureProximal3 more

From April ,2014 to April 2015,31 patients with fractures of the proximal humerus were treated in our hospital. According to anatomic neck fractures (ANF) and surgical neck fractures (SNF), we divided the patients into two groups. All the patients were followed at least 1 year.

Assessment of the Surgical Handling and Performance of the X-ray-based Tracking and Navigation System...

Proximal Humeral Fracture

Xin1 Humerus system is an X-ray-based tracking and navigation system designed to calculate the plate position and all required proximal screw lengths for proximal humerus plate fixation. The aim is to validate the system performance in a clinical context and test the surgical handling of the Xin1 marker in a hospital environment. 10 adults having sustained a proximal humerus fracture and are indicated for plate fixation osteosynthesis will be provided intraoperatively with the Xin1 marker. The system performance is evaluated retrospectively by post-processing the intraoperative X-ray images after surgery

Treatment of Humerus Fractures by a Multiloc Nail, Through a Minimally Invasive Procedure.

Humeral Fractures

Proximal humerus fractures are more common in older people. They can be caused by a minor trauma on an osteoporotic bone. Non- or little-displaced proximal humerus fractures are treated orthopedically. When the displacement is more important, the choice of the treatment is crucial and the algorithm of treatment is in permanent evolution. The technology and design of the implants and the operative techniques of osteosynthesis and arthroplasty have evolved. Patients live longer, they lead a more active life and their expectations have changed. The goals of the treatment should be an increase in shoulder function and a decrease in treatment failure. This study analyzes the results of the treatment by intramedullary osteosynthesis using a Multiloc nail from Synthes between 2012 and June 2017. The study will compare the functional results obtained after fixation by a Multiloc nail, a Philos plate or arthroplasty.The functionality of the shoulder and the quality of life will be evaluated according to the type of treatment.

Examination of Microcirculation of the Caput Humeri After Proximal Humerus Fracture

Proximal Humeral Fractures

This study examines the microcirculation of the caput humeri after proximal humeral fracturation using O2C light probes. During the operation the blood circulation is measured at four points (tuberculum majus, tuberculum minus, neck and head of the humerus) directly on the bone. The O2C light probes are a none-invasive technique of measuring blood flow, velocity and oxygen concentration. The data is analysed in respect to the fracture type according to the classification of Neer. Valuable additional information for the correct treatment and prognosis of humeral fractures is expected.

Psychological Health Influences the Choice of Device in Proximal Humeral Fractures

Humeral FractureProximal

It was conducted a prospective study with a series of 63 patients treated with O.R.I.F. (Open Reduction and Internal Fixation) (group A) and with RSA (Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty) (group B) for three and four-part proximal humeral fractures according to Neer classification system. One independent observer performed clinical and a psychological evaluation at one(T0), six(T1) and twelve months(T2) postoperatively. The Constant's score and The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH score) were used for clinical evaluation, while General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and Caregiver Strain Scale (CSS) were used for psychological evaluation.

Surgical Fixation and Non-Operative Management Outcomes in Proximal Humerus Fractures

Proximal Humeral Fracture

The management of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) remains a significant challenge in orthopaedics. The acute treatment options for PHFs are numerous and are typically guided by the fracture pattern and functional demands of the patients. The most commonly used methods include non-operative management with a sling or surgical fixation. Although non-surgical treatment is a reasonable treatment option for the majority of humerus fractures, there is an increasing interest in surgical intervention. There are no evidence-based treatment recommendations, thus permitting large local variation in treatment preferences. There are a number of studies in the literature about how outcome measures of the patients after PHFs management change, but these results generally compare functional results before and after treatment. Misra et al. stated that conservatively managed patients with PHFs have more pain and a poorer range of motion than those managed by either fixation or arthroplasty, while cochrane review stated that surgery is not superior to nonsurgical treatment in most proximal humerus fractures. Jayakumar et al. determined that kinesiophobia is one of the strongest predictors of functional limitation and recovery from a PHF is enhanced by overcoming fears of movement or reinjury within a week after injury. There is no clear knowledge regarding how the surgical or conservative management used in the management of PHF affects the early results of assessment parameters. The aim of this study was to compare early results of surgical fixation versus non-operative management outcomes in patients with proximal humerus fractures.
