To determine the mechanisms underlying motor skill training, somatosensory electrical stimulation, and a combined intervention on motor skill acquisition, motor memory consolidation, and interlimb transfer in healthy younger and older adults.
To investigate clinical outcome, functional outcome and accuracy of patient-tailored plating in corrective osteotomy procedures and compare this to the standard osteotomy procedures based on 2D imaging and standard fixation plates. Additionally we…
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether Gamma3 intramedullary nails versus sliding hip screws will improve quality of life in patients with intertrochanteric fractures (hip fractures). We will also compare functional recovery,…
The withhold of the use of a spinal orthosis for traumatic spinal fractures will lead to equal pain, radiologic outcome, and quality of life (QoL) in patients.
To determine wether surgeon-controlled fluoroscopy leads to a lower fluoroscopy time, during placement of osteosynthesis material in hip fractures.
In patients over 60 years of age who have sustained a displaced femoral neck fracture, what is the rate of revision surgery at 24 months when a total hip arthroplasty versus hemi-arthroplasty is used as the surgical treatment? Hypothesis: We…
The main objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of C-Mill training over other training for improving walking ability in elderly recovering from a fall-related hip fracture. Secondary objective is to examine the effectiveness of C-…
Establishment whether usage of high viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs leads to a reduction in leakage incidence compared to usage of conventional (low-medium) viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs.Since evidence is scarce or…
Is the present malrotation of the tibia, 15 degrees exorotation and 10 degrees endorotation, after intramedullary nailing acceptabel. Furthermore, we want to know which technique could reduce the possible malalignment in patients. In present there…
The primary goal of this study is to determine the union as determined on both radiographically and computed tomography. This will allow us to compare these two modalities for the determination of union 10 weeks and six months after fracture*our…
1 Confirm comparable results in reduction and consolidation of the fracture fragments using the LFN vs the UFN2 Identifying a significant difference in the soft tissue damage between the LFN and the UFN
The primary objective of the study is to investigate the number of complications (infection, nonunion, nerve damage). Secondary objectives will be procedure time, peroperative fluoroscopic , hospitalisation time and resumption of full activities.
The objective is to investigate the excess value of the Fixion Proximal Femur Nailing System in comparison with the Gamma 3 Nail in patients with an unstable pertrochanteric femur fracture.
To assess whether increasing low hemoglobin levels to near normal accelerate functional recovery and shorten the revalidation period after hip fracture surgery in the elderly.
ObjectiveOur primary objective is to assess the impact of sliding hip screws versus cannulated screw fixation on rates of revision surgery at 2 years in individuals with femoral neck fractures. Our secondary objective is to determine the impact on…
Fracture healing groupPrimary outcome: to study the healing of distal radius fractures in terms of calculated bone strength based on the results of cortical and trabecular bone parameters using a novel HRpQCT technique (XtremeCT device, Scanco,…
The main objective is to compare the effect of immediate (or pre-existent) administration of daily calcium supplementation (1 Cacit bruisgranulaat *1000*: 1000 mg calcium) or two daily dosages of calcium + vitamin D (CaD® sachet 1000/880: 1000 mg…
Primary- Does the application of Virtual Reality (VR) reduce anxiety in patients undergoing treatment for traumatic injury in the emergency department compared to patients not using VR headset? Secondary- Does the use of Virtual Reality (VR) lead to…
Primary Objectives: 1. Are there differences in bone density parameters (cortical and trabecular density) between patients who will be treated with bone grafting and patients who will not receive bone grafts after open wedge osteotomy and plate…
To compare pain relief after PV with a sham intervention in selected patients with a chronic osteoporotic VCF ( three months or longer) using the same strict inclusion criteria as in VERTOS II an IV. Secondary outcome measures are back pain related…
