To determine long-term scar quality in patients admitted to a Dutch burn centre with burn wound of indeterminate depth.
The goal of this study is to develope and validate a non-invasive method for the age determination of bruises. This method is tested on adult volunteers. We expect differences between the healing proces of bruises in adults and children.To be more…
The primary objectives are to assess the degree of OA that patients develop 10 to15 year after a DRF, find out whether there is there is a difference in degree of osteoarthritis between conservative treated patients with and without an indication…
Main objectiveTo describe the experienced pain sensations of temperature and to describe the different temperature sensitivity thresholds using Quantitative Sensory Test (QST) in the different patient groups.secondairy objectiveAs a measure of the…
1. to provide data in children presenting with physical injury at EDs on the predictive value of Sputovamo2. to address the added predictive value of early phase inquiry with other health care providers in establishing a diagnosis of child abuse
Primary objective: to investigate the possible role of FABP/Claudin levels as a diagnostic marker for significant intra-abdominal injury (necessitating therapeutical intervention).Secondary objective: to establish the use of plasma levels of I-FABP/…
This study aims to design a nomogram for the course of serum pro-calcitonin in burn patients. For this purpose, a new, sensitive assay will be used. It is expected that the nomogram will help to differentiate between patients with a systemic…
Measuring the forces exerted on upper en lower teeth during classic (direct) and (indirect) (video)laryngoscopy.
Primary objective:To find a relation between several laboratory test, clinical parameters and riskfactors to the occurrence of anastomotic leakage after a colectomy, esophagectomy or gastrectomy.Secondary objective:To find a combination of factors…
Measuring the space on the right side of the videolaryngoscope blade and the palatopharyngeal wall in a cohort of ASA I-III patients with a normal mouth opening (Mallampati I, II and III). We also want to investigate how this space differs from the…
The primary outcome of this pilot study is the degree of OA that patients develop after a DRF. The secondary objective is to measure the functional outcome after treatment.
The first aim of this study is to evaluate 1) the feasibility and 2) repeatability of a new exercise test protocol to measure the pysical fitness of persons with a lower limb amputation on the combined arm-leg (Cruiser) ergometer.
To perform a pilot study to quantify difference in treatment plans based on CR, as compared to treatment planning based on CT in all patients with clinical suspicion of fractures of the wrist and carpus. Information from this pilot study will be…
To show accurate and proper functioning of the Medimate Lithium Analyzer
Objectives, primary1) To assess and compare the inter-observer agreement for the AO31-classification of trochanteric femural fractures using plain radiographs and CT-scans 2) To assess the impact of CT on the treatment plan for trochanteric…
The following questions will be answered:• Can typical protein-profiles in a proteomic-assay be identified after trauma, which might be correlated with the outcome of the patients?• How is the dynamic of protein-profile-changes in the proteomics-…
Determining the sensitivity and specificity of the on-site GHB test.
To determine the accuracy and robustness of this method it is necessary to validate it. In the past some successful studies have been performed in adult volunteerd. However we would like to investigate the influence of induced changes to the healing…
