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…
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…
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.
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 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…
To study whether a reduction of the current radiographic follow-up protocol in patients with uncomplicated distal radius and ankle fractures would lead to significant cost savings without compromising quality of care.
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.
Primary Objective: To study the arginine-NO metabolism during fracture healing and dysfunctional fracture healingSecondary Objective(s): To investigate if differences or decreased arginine and NO concentrations in bone healing form a prognostic…
What is the sensitivity and specificity of the gravity stress test compared with MRI?Is it possible to differentiate between stable and instable fractures with the gravity stress test?Is it possible to differentiate between partial and total rupture…
To determine the incidence of posttraumatic osteoarthritis following distal radius fractures in a cohort of young non-osteoporotic patients and correlation with objective and subjective outcome measures.
To determine wether surgeon-controlled fluoroscopy leads to a lower fluoroscopy time, during placement of osteosynthesis material in hip fractures.
To assess Bone Material Strength (BMS) in patients with acromegaly with fractures and without fractures.
Objective: The primary objective of this study is to assess the influence of clavicular shortening after fracture consolidation of a midshaft clavicular fracture, on the Active Range of Motion of the arm/shoulder. Measurements are performed with a…
Onset of effect of systemic therapy to enhance bone density (eg, bisphosphonates) is not immediate and may not adequately protect subjects with decreased bone density from fracture.Bisphosphonate therapy will typically require 2 to 3 years of active…
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…
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…
Primary objective: To estimate the incidence of clinical and radiological DRUJ instability after a conservatively treated distal radius fracture using clinical tests and CT-scan, and to assess the value of CT for diagnosing DRUJ instability using…
