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.
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 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…
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 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 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,…
To study whether a reduction of the current radiographic follow-up protocol in patients with uncomplicated distal radius and ankle fractures would lead to significant cost savings without compromising quality of care.
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.
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…
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…
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…
To determine wether surgeon-controlled fluoroscopy leads to a lower fluoroscopy time, during placement of osteosynthesis material in hip fractures.
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.
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.
