Compare sensitivity and specificity of both rules as well as compare the accuracy between observer groups for these rules. Also the interobserver agreement is assessed to test whether the rules are reproducible.
The aim of this prospective randomized study is to compare results of plate fixation and intramedullary fixation postoperatively after two weeks and after a follow-up period of one year.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the results of corrective osteotomy for distal radius malunion at our institution. We want to compare the pre-operative and post-operative CT scan-based three dimensional reconstructions for the comparison…
The objective of this retrospective study is to compare the outcome of the different treatment options(surgical or non-surgical) for fingertip injury.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the fall training in older individuals by reduction of hip impact forces. Furthermore, to determine if older individuals are able to perform these fall techniques after training, fall performance is…
The aim of this project is to assess objective impairment and arm-specific disability (DASH scores) in long-term follow-up of patients with diaphyseal fractures of both bones of the forearm treated with open reduction and plate and screw fixation,…
Primairy aim:To determine the AOFAS Midfoot functional outcome score after operative or non-operative treatment of patients whou sustained a Lisfranc luxation fracture, with a minimum follow-up of 2 years.Secundairy aims:1. To determine the effect…
The aim of this study: - To determine the amount of pressure of PCCDs on the skin. The Pelvic Binder, SAM Sling and T-POD will be compared.- To determine the influence of body mass index on the pressure characteristics of these 3 types of PCCDs.The…
We propose a protocol to invite patients with olecranon fractures identified from the AMC database to return for evaluation and radiographs in order to collect long term (>10 years) data regarding the outcomes of these fractures.
The objective is to see what part of the conservative treated patients has rest complaints, and the quality of live.
The aim of this pilot study is to investigate in a Dutch psycho geriatric nursing home population whether weekly half body UVB irradiation after showering is an efficient and in daily practice feasible method for the supplementation of vitamin D.

We propose a protocol to invite patients with isolated radius fractures identified from the AMC database to return for evaluation and radiographs in order to collect long term (>10 years) data regarding the outcomes of these fractures.
Primary objective:The primary objective of this observational study is evaluate the use of a plasteraid splint to gain and hold the desired 90-0-0 protective position in the conservative treatment of patients with metacarpal fractures of the second…
Regaining insight in the re-angulating capacity of angular deformities in forearm fractures of the juvenile bone. Thereby making use of radiologic, clinical and functional parameters.
Our aim is to characterize the injury patterns and elements; to classify the fractures according to the AO, Colton and Schatzker Classifications and to obtain long-term follow-up data on patients treated for a complex olecranon fracture between 2002…
The goal of this research is to improve our understanding of the risk and prevention of osteoporosis-related fractures among female residents of 9 countries who are 55 years of age and older. Research Objectives* Describe the distribution of risk…
