Trial Outcomes & Findings for Locked Versus Unlocked Set Screws in Intramedullary Fixation of Intertrochanteric Fractures (NCT NCT02345369)

NCT ID: NCT02345369

Last Updated: 2018-08-02

Results Overview

Femoral neck shortening will be measured radiographically with femoral neck offset and the femoral neck shaft angle to be measured radiographically based on standardized computerized measurements based off of PACs images. TraumaCad software (Voyanthealth, Westchester, Il) will be utilized to obtain standardized measurements.

Measure
Locked Set Screw
In this arm, subjects who have sustained an intertrochanteric hip fracture (OTA classification A2 and A3) will undergo fixation with an intramedullary hip screw with locking of the set screw. Locked Set Screw: Fixation of hip fracture with intramedullary hip screw with locking of the set screw
Unlocked Set Screw
In this arm, subjects who have sustained an intertrochanteric hip fracture (OTA classification A2 and A3) will undergo fixation with an intramedullary hip screw without locking of the set screw. Unlocked Set Screw: Fixation of hip fracture with intramedullary hip screw without locking of the set screw
