- Brief summary | BACKGROUND
Up to 30% of patients with a distal radius fracture suffer from long-term functional restrictions after non-operative treatment. The IlluminOss® Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System (PBSS) is a novel implant. It comprises intramedullary fracture fixation using a percutaneous approach. The percutaneous nature of the operative procedure is aimed at reducing the risks associated with traditional open reduction and internal fixation. Operative fixation with the IlluminOss® PBSS allows for early mobilization and may theoretically lead to earlier functional recovery and earlier ADL independence than plaster immobilization.
AIM
The primary aim of this prospective, multicenter, observational study is to examine the DASH (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand) score in elderly patients who sustained a unilateral displaced distal radius fracture (DRF) that was treated with the IlluminOss® Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System. Secondary aims are to assess the effect on treatment on functional outcome, pain, health-related quality of life, time to regaining ADL independence, time to resumption of daily activities and work, ROM, complications, and costs for health care use and lost productivity in these patients.
STUDY DESIGN
Multi-center observational study. Approximately 4-6 hospitals in the Netherlands will participate.
POPULATION
Elderly patients (60 years or older; independent in activities of daily living) with a unilateral displaced distal radius fracture (AO type 23-A2 and 23-A3) that was successfully closed reduced within 12 hours of presentation to the Emergency Department and treated with the IlluminOss® Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System within 14 days are eligible.
INTERVENTION
Closed reduction and percutaneous intramedullary fixation using the IlluminOss® Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System
ENDPOINTS
Primary outcome measure: DASH score.
Secondary outcome measures: functional outcome (PRWE); pain (VAS); health-related quality of life (SF-36 and EuroQoL-5D); ADL independence; work/ADL resumption; ROM; radiological outcome; complications; costs for health care use and lost productivity.
Primary and secondary outcomes will be determined at 2 and 6 weeks, and at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery.
