Primary Objective:To examine the effect of ORIF versus nonoperative treatment of multiple simple fractured ribs on the rate of pneumonia within 30 days after trauma, in adult patients who sustained multiple simple fractured ribs.Secondary Objectives…
To asses if there is a difference in functional outcome between open reduction and fixation of the posterior fragment in trimalleolar AO-Weber B fractures with additional medium-sized posterior fragment (5-25% of the involved articular surface, AO…
To compare the accuracy of syndesmotic reduction on an axial CT-scan postoperatively (reflecting syndesmoticmalreduction) after anatomical open reduction and fixation of the posterior malleolar fragment versus no fixation of theposterior fragment in…
Primary objective parameter: to assess whether a no dangling protocol is non-inferior to a dangling protocol in terms of proportion of patients who experienced partial flaps loss which did not require another free lap procedure at six months after…
To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of treatment with a circumferential cast compared to treatment with a splint, in patients with a reduced distal radius fracture. The hypothesis is that reduced distal radius fractures treated with a circumferential…
Primary objective: The primary objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the Transmural Trauma Care Model (TTCM) as compared to usual care.The research question addressed is:Is the Transmural Trauma Care Model…
The primary objective of this trial is to test if these favorable results with the DLBP can be upheld in a multicenter randomized controlled trial with patients up to 65 years with a displaced FNF. We hypothesize that the DLBP is superior compared…
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…
The main objective of this study is to assess patient reported outcome measures of adult patients who are diagnosed with a distal radius fracture and treated with a patient-specific 3D- printed splints as compared to a control cohort.
Primary objective: Is functional treatment (soft wrap and buddy taping) superior in recovering hand function (QuickDASH) compared to casting in patients with uncomplicated subcapital MCV fracture? Secondary objectives: patient satisfaction, grip…
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 objectives are:1. Are there differences in complication rates between patients treated with harvesting of bone from the iliac crest and patients not treated with bone grafting during open wedge corrective osteotomy and plate fixation of the…
To compare the functional outcome and cost-effectiveness of self-management exercise regimen versus supervised hand-physiotherapy. The patient group exists of adults who are treated conservatively because of dorsal dislocation or hyperextension…
The DEPTHip Study aims to shed light on the question whether the use of a continuous ultrasound-guided FICB employing catheter technique, administered in the ED within 2 hours after presentation of an elderly patient with a hip fracture, can…
Assessing the (cost)-effectiveness of operative treatment compared with non-operative treatment for elderly patients with an intra-articular distal radius fractures.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of a prolonged physical therapy protocol for patients treated for acetabular 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.
To determine the effectiveness of the use of a serious game as a therapeutic tool for wrist rehabilitation after treatment of a closed distal radius fracture, in comparison to standard therapy. The effects on reported functional outcomes of…
