To compare the functional outcome of ORIF with a volar locking plate to closed reduction and plaster immobilisation in patients with dislocated extra-articular distal radius fractures.
The primary objective is to study the effect of sensor monitoring embedded in an OT rehabilitation program for older persons after hip fracture on recovery of daily functioning, 6 months after the start of rehabilitation, as compared to coaching by…
To compare radiological and functional outcome in 2 retrospective cohorts. We compare the results of the MILAN study with a cohort after changing our operative strategy in 2010.
1. To explore the validity and usefulness of Bone Microindentation Technique (BMT) in the assessment of bone quality in patients with osteoporosis and a spectre of bone diseases characterised with (localised) increased bone turnover. 2. To study the…
To assess functional outcome and using gait analysis to quantify kinematic and kinetic abnormalities of servicemen who suffered foot injuries due to combat actions.
To compare the accuracy of syndesmotic reduction on an axial CT-scan postoperatively (reflecting syndesmotic malreduction) after anatomical open reduction and fixation of the posterior malleolar fragment versus no fixation of the posterior fragment…
Primary Objective: Our main goal is to contribute to the identification of an attentional profile of the paediatric TBI population, by analysing the quality and efficiency of alerting, orienting, executive and sustained attentional functioning. This…
The aim of this project is to determine the possible use of biomarkers for non- or delayed-union in fractures of the diaphyseal femur and tibia.
The aim of this project is to determine the possible use of biomarkers for non or delayed union in long bone fractures of the diaphyseal femur and tibia.
Within WP6 of a EU Seventh Framework project, we will investigate associations between purinergic receptor SNPs and osteoporosis risk in humans. Genetic data from a fracture cohort in The Netherlands with high prevalence of osteoporosis will be…
Primary objective: To estimate the incidence of clinical and radiological DRUJ instability after a conservatively treated distal radius fracture using clinical tests and CT-scan, and to assess the value of CT for diagnosing DRUJ instability using…
Purpose: is there a rotational disability after Prevotnailing of forearm fractures in children and is this caused by a bony deficit.
The aim of this study is to assess biomechanical properties after a calcaneal fracture, and compare these data tot the radiological and functional outcome parameters. Hereby comparing healthy subjects to patients who were treated with ORIF (open…
The research is set up to investigate three primary questions.1. Is there a difference between bone resorbing capacity between postmenopausal women with a vertebral fracture and postmenopausal women without a vertebral fracture and high bone mineral…
This study aims to gain insight into the effect of inflammatory factors on bone metabolism. For this purpose we formulated the following research questions:1. Which circulating inflammatory factors play a central role in the pathogenesis of general…
This pilot study will be performed to investigate whether the cantharidin-induced blister method is a useful alternative for the vacuum blister method in patients with acute or chronic CRPS.Replacement of the vacuum blister method by the filter disc…
The search for correlations between components of the diet and the group has experienced a hip fracture. These findings are compared with healthy elderly. The results can contribute to nutrition -focused interventions in future studies .
It is our hypothesis that one week of plaster cast treatment will give a better functional outcome score as Patient Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) and a lower pain score at 6 weeks post injury and will be less costly as compared to the control group…
To asses if there is a difference in functional outcome between open reduction and fixation of the posterior fragment in trimalleolar AO-Weber B fractures with additional medium-sized posterior fragment (5-25% of the involved articular surface, AO…
To compare the accuracy of syndesmotic reduction on an axial CT-scan postoperatively (reflecting syndesmoticmalreduction) after anatomical open reduction and fixation of the posterior malleolar fragment versus no fixation of theposterior fragment in…
