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 assess bone structure parameters and bone strength by high resolution peripheral quantitative CT evaluation (HRpQCT) and physical activity in relation with subsequent falls, fractures and mortality in patients with a…
The goal of the study is whether to establish if application of combined cyrocompression therapy directly postoperative after hip fracture surgery results in a significant reduction in painperception en whether this reduces the morfine consumption.…
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.
Aim of this study is to determine the functional outcome after a minimum of 1 year follow-up after fixation of the fractured olecranon with TBW or PF. Subgroup analyses will be done to investigate the assumed advantage of PF compared to TBW in…
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…
The data will be used in order to evaluate statistical variability (mean, SD) in an attempt to predict an appropriate sample size prior to the RCT based on the effect size, alpha and beta. The aim of the RCT is to assess the effects of the Osteoline…
Primary Objective: Compare functional results of the three postoperative care regimens assessed with the Olerud-Molander ankle score 12 weeks after surgery.Secondary Objective(s): 1) Compare functional results and patient satisfaction of the three…
To determine the prevalence of posttraumatic osteoarthritis following a PLD-PLFDs in a cohort of young non-osteoporotic patients and correlation with objective and subjective outcome measures.
Primary Objective: To compare the function and strength of the hip of patients with a trochanteric fracture with and without a fracture of the lesser trochanter.Secondary Objective(s):The following parameters will be assessed and compared for…
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 Bone Material Strength of the tibia at the side of a fracture or arhtrodesis with that of the opposite tibia in patients who had been immobilized for at least 6 weeks after a recently sustained fracture of the ankle of calcaneus or after…
We want to find out whether the new protocol (with a fast MRI) is more cost-effective than the current protocol (concisting of 10 days cast). Primary Objective: To find out whether the new MRI protocol is more cost-effective than the old protocol.…
The aim of the present study is to implement and evaluate the 'ZELFIE game' in vulnerable geriatric patients after hip-surgery, and in patients with an increased risk of falling. The game is specifically tailored to and co-created with the…
The purpose of the current study is to examine the additional diagnostic value of the stress radiograph in determining deltoid ligament disruption in ankle fractures. The sensitivity and specificity of this test will be compared with findings on MRI…
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…
