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.
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.
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.
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.
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…
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.…
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…
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,…
To investigate the effect of a GFC regarding major adverse events (AE) with a relationship to the treatment / residential status / immobilization (as defined under "Primary outcome measures") from surgery to a 36 month follow-up.
The primary objective of this study is to determine (differences in) patient satisfaction with pain relief and pain intensity (Numeric Rating Scale) using a step 1 vs. a step 2 based analgesic regimen.The secondary objective is to determine…
The primary objective of the study is to collect safety and performance data of the IlluminOss Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System when used for the treatment of painful impending and actual fractures of the humerus secondary to metastatic…
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.
The objective is to improve the functional outcome in distal radius fracture patients, specified as an increase in function, dexterity, grip strength, range of motion, and decrease of pain.
To compare the accuracy of syndesmotic reduction on an axial CT-scan postoperatively (reflecting syndesmotic malreduction) after anatomical open reduction and fixation of the posterior malleolar fragment versus no fixation of the posterior fragment…
