Primary Objective:To examine the effect of pre-operative cooling versus pressure bandage on the time to surgery in adult patients who sustained a displaced intra-articular calcaneal fracture (DIACF) that will be treated operatively using an extended…
The aim of this prospective, multicenter, trial is 1) to describe the effect of a suprapatellar approach on anterior knee pain, and 2) to assess the effect of a transverse versus a longitudinal transpatellar incision on anterior knee pain.
The objective of this study is to determine the clinical outcomes of ultrasound guided cubital nerve blockage using prilocaine, in patients with distal radius fractures and compare these results to patients treated with a fracture hematoma block.
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.
Primary Objective: Compare functional results of the three postoperative care regimens assessed with the Olerud-Molander ankle score 12 weeks after surgery.Secondary Objective(s): 1) Compare functional results and patient satisfaction of the three…
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 primary objective of this study is to determine (differences in) patient satisfaction with pain relief and pain intensity (Numeric Rating Scale) using a step 1 vs. a step 2 based analgesic regimen.The secondary objective is to determine…
Improvement of the functional recovery of patients with a hipfracture and the prevention of re-surgery.
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.
The objective is to improve the functional outcome in distal radius fracture patients, specified as an increase in function, dexterity, grip strength, range of motion, and decrease of pain.
To examine if a functional brace in the treatment of Unimalleolar Weber-B fracture results in a higher Olerud and Molander Score, less pain, better comfort, greater range of motion.
The primary objective of this study is to determine (differences in) patient satisfaction with pain relief and pain intensity (Numeric Rating Scale) using a step 1 vs. a step 2 based analgesic regimen.The secondary objective is to determine…
To determine the efficacy and the safety of PREOB®, a proprietary population of autologous bone-forming cells, in the treatment of non-infected hypotrophic non-union fractures of long bones.
Primary objective:Difference in AOFAS lesser increase scale after 3 months.Secondary objectives:VAS pain scoresFracture Consolidation PeriodDelayed unionLength MT-V measured at contralateral MT-V, malunionQuestionnaire FAAM
Results of recent trials suggest that operative treatment with locking plate fixation results in better functional outcomes than non-operative treatment. Because more patients were lost to follow-up than anticipated in the main randomised trial,…
The aim of the proposed study is to improve functional outcome using locking angle-stable screw-plate osteosynthesis compared to plaster cast immobilization.
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-…
Primary Objective: Our main goal is to determine whether dislocated distal radius fractures immobilized in dorsoflexion gives a better functional outcome in comparison to immobilisation with the wrist in palmarflexion. For this we will use the quick…
