It is hypothesized that the type of radiographs and patient positioning is influential on the measured relative and absolute shortening of the MSCF. The goal of this study is to investigate to what extent the type radiograph used and patient…
to calculate the diagnostic test accuray and by doing so to determine the value of ultrasound in ankle trauma.
Primary Objective: To determine whether pre-operative planning of the ORIF of group I clavicle fractures saves time. Predefined periods during surgery/ parts of the surgery will be monitored and compared with the conventional method.Hypothesis:The…
The primary objectives are to assess the degree of OA that patients develop 10 to 15 year after a mallet finger fracture, to find out whether there is a difference in degree of OA between conservatively treated patients with and without an…
The goals of this study are to evaluate the initial performance, safety and functional results of the Anser; A novel intramedullary device for fixation of midshaft clavicle fractures. The primary outcome measures will be union rate, complication…
The primary objectives are to determine the feasibility of a multi-national prospective cohort study:1) Assess our ability to recruit women across clinical sites and compare actual recruitment rates to our current estimates;2) Evaluate adherence to…
The aim of the proposed study is to define optimal treatment for the Lisfranc fracture dislocation, either primary arthrodesis or open reduction and internal fixation, in regard to quality of life, complications, functional outcomes and cost…
To assess the performance of a distal radius osteotomy supported by 3D guides in patients suffering from a radius malunion by comparing the pre-planned radius correction to the actual correction derived from a postoperative CT.
Primary ObjectiveThis proposal concerns the inclusion of a peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) device in the Rotterdam Study to perform osteoporosis etiological research. Since 1990, the Rotterdam Study has performed research in the…
To evaluate the long term functional and radiological effects of surgical treatment of Weber type C (AO 44-C1/2/3) fibular fractures
Primary objective: We aim to examine whether the Cobb angle measurements are similar on a full spine x-ray compared to a targeted x-ray, following traumatic spinal injury in patients >55 years of age, after 3 and 12 months of follow-up.
In this study we aim to investigate prognostic factors by adding extra questionnaires for patients and their caregivers, observation list and the use of an accelerometer. These variables can provide information about the successful as well as non-…
To investigate protein synthesis rates and enrichments of femoral bone tissue proximal and distal to a hip fracture.
To assess the accuracy of the screw placements after using a surgical guide in patients operated for intra-articular tibial fractures.
The primary objective is to assess functional shoulder outcome scores and complications after non-operative treatment of subcapital humerus fractures among adults and older adults at least 2 years after the fracture. The secondary objectives are: 1…
In this study we will monitor changes in bone mineral densities after intracapsular femoral neck fractures treated with a dynamic hip screw.
To assess the accuracy of the screw placements after using a surgical guide in patients operated for acetabular fractures. This study will learn us which screws benefit (in accuracy of the placement) from using a surgical guide.
To investigate if patients with a variety of hand and wrist problems can conduct measurements, using a mobile application integrated with the Manus VR glove and a digital dynamometer, as an alternative for conventional measurements conducted by a…
The primary research question includes: Can ESWT induce fracture healing in non-healing AFF's after six months?
1 to get a data base on the functional out come of our current treatment of distal radial fractures. These data base should be used for evaluating future treatment modifications. 2. Evaluate the DASH score. In any score system not al questions…
