To determine the mechanisms underlying motor skill training, somatosensory electrical stimulation, and a combined intervention on motor skill acquisition, motor memory consolidation, and interlimb transfer in healthy younger and older adults.
To investigate clinical outcome, functional outcome and accuracy of patient-tailored plating in corrective osteotomy procedures and compare this to the standard osteotomy procedures based on 2D imaging and standard fixation plates. Additionally we…
In light of the above, our objective is to study the (cost-) effectiveness of a single intravenous gift of antibiotic prophylaxis with a firstgeneration cephalosporin prior to implant removal following surgical fixation of foot, ankle and/or lower…
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether Gamma3 intramedullary nails versus sliding hip screws will improve quality of life in patients with intertrochanteric fractures (hip fractures). We will also compare functional recovery,…
Improvement of the functional recovery of patients with a hipfracture and the prevention of re-surgery.
The withhold of the use of a spinal orthosis for traumatic spinal fractures will lead to equal pain, radiologic outcome, and quality of life (QoL) in patients.
To determine wether surgeon-controlled fluoroscopy leads to a lower fluoroscopy time, during placement of osteosynthesis material in hip fractures.
Objective of the study is to asses quality of fracture reduction and patient-relevant outcomes with the intra-operative use of the 3D-RX-system as compared to the conventional 2D-fluoroscopy in patients with traumatic intra-articular fractures of…
In patients over 60 years of age who have sustained a displaced femoral neck fracture, what is the rate of revision surgery at 24 months when a total hip arthroplasty versus hemi-arthroplasty is used as the surgical treatment? Hypothesis: We…
The main objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of C-Mill training over other training for improving walking ability in elderly recovering from a fall-related hip fracture. Secondary objective is to examine the effectiveness of C-…
Establishment whether usage of high viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs leads to a reduction in leakage incidence compared to usage of conventional (low-medium) viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs.Since evidence is scarce or…
1. To assess the effect of odanacatib 50 mg once weekly versus placebo on lumbar spine BMD over 24 months.2. To assess the safety and tolerability of odanacatib 50 mg once weekly compared to placebo.
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.
Is the present malrotation of the tibia, 15 degrees exorotation and 10 degrees endorotation, after intramedullary nailing acceptabel. Furthermore, we want to know which technique could reduce the possible malalignment in patients. In present there…
The primary goal of this study is to determine the union as determined on both radiographically and computed tomography. This will allow us to compare these two modalities for the determination of union 10 weeks and six months after fracture*our…
The objective of this study is:1.To determine whether the use of bone-growth stimulation by means of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) in fresh scaphoid fractures will accelerate healing both clinically and radiologically. 2.To determine whether…
1 Confirm comparable results in reduction and consolidation of the fracture fragments using the LFN vs the UFN2 Identifying a significant difference in the soft tissue damage between the LFN and the UFN
The primary objective of the study is to investigate the number of complications (infection, nonunion, nerve damage). Secondary objectives will be procedure time, peroperative fluoroscopic , hospitalisation time and resumption of full activities.
Goal of our study is to compare conservative treatment of mid-shaft clavicle fracture with Kinesio® clavicle tape combined with sling to conservative treatment with sling. Goal of our Pilot-studie is;Investorise if the VAS-score, the DASH…
The objective is to investigate the excess value of the Fixion Proximal Femur Nailing System in comparison with the Gamma 3 Nail in patients with an unstable pertrochanteric femur fracture.
