Clinical Trial: Surgical Plate Osteosynthesis of Distal Radius Fractures

Study Status: Terminated
Recruit Status: Terminated
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: Surgical Plate Osteosynthesis of Distal Radius Fractures. Prospective Study of the Locking Compression Plate (LCP)

Brief Summary:

Primary objective of the study is to demonstrate specific indications for the

surgical treatment of distal radius fractures using the locking compression

plate.


Detailed Summary:

In addition the differences between the surgical treatment compared to

conservative treatment with respect to fracture healing, functional outcome

and subject satisfaction will be analysed after 6w./6m./1y./2y.

Current Primary Outcome: - Document specific indications for the surgical treatment of distal radius fractures using the LCP

Original Primary Outcome: Same as current

Current Secondary Outcome:

  • - Primary reduction and maintenance of reduction of the plate fixation
  • - Functional outcome scoring using "Garetland and Werley, DASH and SF-36 scoring
  • - Patient and surgeon satisfaction
  • - Analysis of the occured complications


Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
