Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Activa IM-Nail™ is used in the fixation of forearm fractures with cast to achieve a level of reduction and stabilisation that is appropriate to the age of the child. The post-market clinical follow-up study will be performed to identify the residual risk related to re-fracture and to determine its impact to the risk/benefit ratio of Activa IM-Nail™.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Residual risk related to re-fracture rate will be addressed by this PMCF study. The research question is, if the re-fracture risk with Activa IM-nail is in line with the other treatment methods, namely ESIN.

Primary objective: will be to assess clinical outcome by determining re-fracture rate of all treated patients, difference of re-fracture rate depending on the fracture type determined by X-ray (e.g. greenstick vs. non-greenstick fracture), subject's age, BMI, surgical technique, immobilization time and bony union formation.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Diaphyseal forearm fractures (radius or ulna or both)
* Patients from 3 years to under 13 years, but the age limits depend on the biological development of the child and in addition

Exclusion Criteria

* multifragmentary fractures, metaphyseal and epiphyseal fractures
* Situations where internal fixation is otherwise contraindicated, e.g., active or potential infection, or where a patient's cooperation cannot be guaranteed.
