Fracture-related infection (FRI) is a severe complication after bone injury and can pose serious diagnostic challenge. Overall, there limited amount of scientific evidence regarding criteria for FRI. For this reason, the AO Foundation European Bone Joint Infection Society proposed consensus definition FRI to standardize improve quality patient care applicability future studies condition. The aim article was summarize available provide recommendations diagnosis purpose, will be discussed...
Fracture-related infection (FRI) remains a challenging complication that creates heavy burden for orthopaedic trauma patients, their families and treating physicians, as well healthcare systems. Standardization of the diagnosis FRI has been poor, which made undertaking comparison studies difficult. Recently, consensus definition based on diagnostic criteria was published. As well-established is first step in treatment process FRI, such should not only improve quality published reports but...
Background Surgical repair of acute Achilles tendon ruptures is considered superior to nonoperative treatment, but complications other than rerupture range up 34%. Nonoperative treatment by functional bracing seems a promising alternative. Hypothesis rupture with reduces the number compared surgical minimally invasive technique. Study Design Randomized controlled clinical trial; Level evidence, 2. Method Using concealed random allocation, 83 patients were assigned or followed tape bandage....
Background: Over the past decades, operative treatment of displaced midshaft clavicular fractures has increased. The aim this study was to compare short and midterm results open reduction plate fixation with those intramedullary nailing for fractures. Methods: A multicenter, randomized controlled trial performed in four different hospitals. included 120 patients, eighteen sixty-five years age, treated either (n = 58) or 62). Preoperative postoperative shoulder function scores complications...
<h3>Importance</h3> Decision-making on management of proximal femoral fractures in frail patients with limited life expectancy is challenging, but surgical overtreatment needs to be prevented. Current literature provides insight into the true outcomes nonoperative and operative this patient population. <h3>Objective</h3> To investigate vs institutionalized older expectancy. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This multicenter cohort study was conducted between September 1, 2018, April 25,...
The recently developed fracture-related infection (FRI) consensus definition, which is based on specific diagnostic criteria, has not been fully validated in clinical studies. We aimed to determine the performance of criteria FRI definition and evaluated effect combination certain suggestive confirmatory performance.A multicenter, multi-national, retrospective cohort study was performed. Patients were subdivided into an or a control group, according treatment they received recommendations...
Introduction The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-Hindfoot Score is among the most commonly used instruments for measuring outcome of treatment in patients who sustained a complex ankle or hindfoot injury. It combines clinician-reported patient-reported part. A valid Dutch version this instrument currently not available. Such translated validated would allow objective comparison across hospitals between patient groups, with shown validity reliability it may become...
Background/aim To compare outcome of early mobilisation and plaster immobilisation in patients with a simple elbow dislocation. We hypothesised that would result earlier functional recovery. Methods From August 2009 to September 2012, 100 adult dislocation were enrolled this multicentre randomised controlled trial. Patients (n=48) or 3 weeks (n=52). Primary measure was the Quick Disabilities Arm, Shoulder, Hand ( -DASH) score. Secondary outcomes Oxford Elbow Score, Mayo Performance Index,...
Studies comparing plate with intramedullary nail fixation of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures show faster recovery in the group and implant-related complications both groups after short-term followup (6 or 12 months). Knowledge disability, complications, removal rates beyond first postoperative year will help surgeons making a decision regarding optimal implant choice. However, comparative studies two are scarce.We asked: (1) Does for result less disability? (2) Which type fixation,...
