Although epidemiologic studies of tibial plateau fractures have been conducted, none included geographically defined populations or a validated fracture classification based on computed tomography (CT). The goals this study were to provide up-to-date information the incidence and basic epidemiology in large unselected patient population report mechanisms injury involved distribution according CT-based classification. authors conducted population-based all patients treated for over 6-year...

The literature lacks large-scale, up-to-date, population-based epidemiology studies on the incidence of patellar fractures based complete populations. purpose this study was to provide up-to-date information concerning in a large and population spanning decade report distribution fracture classification, trauma mechanisms, patient baseline demographics. A retrospective review clinical radiological records 756 treated between 2005 2014 conducted. Mean age at time 54±21 years. 46±22 years for...

Abstract Objectives Despite extensive validation, the impact of medical comorbidities on outcomes Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), Knee Injury (KOOS), Foot Ankle (FAOS) remains underexplored. This study aimed to evaluate effect HOOS, KOOS, FAOS subscales using a large, nationally representative sample. Methods national register-based cohort invited 26,877 participants complete or questionnaires. Medical comorbidities—including diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary...

Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) the short form KOOS-12 are commonly used in clinical practice research but there no national record-based reference values to aid interpretation. The aim of this study was establish for KOOS its KOOS-12.A representative sample 9996 adult citizens were derived from Danish Civil Registration System. selection based on seven predefined age groups with an equal sex distribution across each strata. questionnaire sent all participants, together...

Background This study evaluated the relevance, construct validity, test-retest reliability, and responsiveness estimate minimal clinically important difference in Knee Injury Osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) for patients with tibial shaft fractures. Materials Methods prospective cohort included adult who were surgically treated after fracture (AO 42-). The primary measure was on KOOS subscales of pain, symptoms, activities daily living, sport recreational activities, knee-related quality...

Abstract Purpose This study aimed to investigate the incidence of early and late complications following treatment patella fractures. Secondary aims were association between patient-reported outcome measurement, Knee Injury Osteoarthritis score (KOOS). Methods Cross-sectional including all patients recorded with a fracture residing in Northern Region Denmark 2010 2020. Early (before 3 months) investigated by retrospective review charts x-rays. All invited participate reporting current...

One of the most common patient-reported complaints following intramedullary nailing (IMN) tibial shaft fractures is anterior knee pain reported by 10% to 80% patients. The present study aimed compare 12-month Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) sport recreation activities subscale (sport/rec) scores after IMN with external ring fixation (RF) adult patients fractures. This was a pragmatic multicentre randomized, non-blinded trial, two-group parallel design. Included were (aged...

Aims The aim of this study was to report a complete overview both incidence, fracture distribution, mode injury, and patient baseline demographics paediatric distal forearm fractures identify age risk types activities leading injury. Methods Population-based cohort with manual review radiographs charts. primary outcome measure incidence fractures. based on an average at-risk population 116,950. A total number 4,316 patients sustained in the period. Females accounted for 1,910 (44%) males...

Several patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are available for assessing the outcomes following ankle fractures. This study aimed to evaluate validity, reliability, and responsiveness detect minimal clinically important difference of Foot Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) in patients with fractures.The design is a prospective cohort study, including all treated both conservatively surgically an fracture (AO-43A/B/C). Content test-retest responsiveness, were evaluated from 14 days 3 months...

The long-term outcomes following complex fractures of the tibia are reported to carry a risk knee pain, malalignment, articular injury and post-traumatic osteoarthritis. main objective this study was account for patient-reported quality life (QOL) 12 months after ring fixator removal in patients with tibial fracture. Secondary objectives included review socio-economic characteristics patient group rate return work period. A prospective follow-up conducted 60 treated external fixation....

Background: Despite intensive research into the epidemiology of adult distal forearm fractures, literature is limited. This study aimed to provide a full overview fracture epidemiology, including incidence, classification, mode injury, and trauma mechanism in patients sustaining fracture, based on an accurate at-risk population with manually validated data leading high quality data. Methods: was population-based cohort manual review X-rays charts. The primary outcome measure incidence...

Background: The Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) is widely used in clinical practice research. However, FAOS reference values are missing to aid interpretation. This study aimed establish national record–based for the FAOS. Methods: A representative sample of 9996 adult Danish citizens was derived from Civil Registration System. questionnaire sent all participants, including 2 supplemental questions regarding previous foot ankle problems body mass index (BMI). threshold 10 points...

The objective of this prospective study was to evaluate the patient-reported outcomes for patients with complex tibial fractures treated a ring fixator. secondary aim analyse variables affecting and time union. Fifty-six participated in study. mean age at fracture 56.5 years (range 30-86). All united during period. fixator removed an average 25.3 weeks 9-53). During treatment, function QOL increased time. Compared established reference population, population showed significantly worse...
