The purpose of this study is to compare clinical outcomes of patients that underwent IMN for tibial plateau fractures to patients that underwent ORIF for similar fractures; and to compare clinical outcomes of patients that underwent IMN for tibial pilon fractures to patients that underwent ORIF for similar fractures.
To define a serum protein-based diagnostic for the progression and failure of fracture healing, through the identification of a set of serum proteins that appear at early times of biological healing and show a specific correlation with later radiological and functional signs used to define delayed healing and non-union.
The purpose of this study is to determine if certain molecules in the bloodstream can be used to improve our ability to predict the development of a nonunion or unhealed bone or fracture related infection. This study is looking at many molecules and we will determine if the levels of …
The purpose of this research study is to find out if applying iodine to the inside of the nose prevents Staph infections among patients having operations to fix broken bones.
This protocol describes a multicenter, prospective randomized superiority trial of medialdyle fracture treatments comparing functional outcomes between children treated withve reduction and fixation or non-operative immobilization.
The proposed study is a two arm, pragmatic, randomized controlled multicenter Phase IIIy trial. 1,000 patients with tibia fractures treated with intramedullary (IM)will be randomized into two treatment arms. The control arm will receive standard paingement and no NSAIDs. The treatment arm will receive standard pain management plus up toweeks …
The goal of this project is to obtain blood samples and test to see how each individual’s body is responding to traumatic injuries in order to better understand how to treat patients with injuries like these in the future.
The overall objective is to compare the effect of Vancomycin and Tobramycin powder combined (treatment) to Vancomycin powder (control) in the reduction of post-fixation infections ofbial plateau and tibial pilon fractures at high risk of infection (collectively consideredhe "study injuries").
The purpose of the PRECISE study (A multi-center, prospective observational study to evaluate the use of Patient-Specific Precision Injury Signatures to Optimize Orthopaedic Interventions in Multiply Injured Patients) is to evaluate how the human body responds to trauma and to treatment for traumatic injuries.
Approximately 1000 patients presenting with tibial shaft fractures (AO type 42) will bed prospectively in this registry. All patients are treated and followed at 6 weeks, 6hs and 1 year postoperative always following the local standard of care (routine) visithedule up to 36 months if required. Data collection includes patient …
