Measure
Standard Operative Debridement and Spanning External Fixator (Reference/Control Group)
This is the standard of care management. Patient will go to the operating room (OR) first for irrigation and debridement with normal saline and external fixation. Will return to OR at a later date for definitive fixation. Saline: Saline irrigation
Spanning External Fixator With Irrisept Irrigation (Treatment Group 1)
Patient will go to the operating room (OR) first for irrigation and debridement with Irrisept (the experimental irrigation solution) and external fixation. Will return to OR at a later date for definitive fixation. Irrisept (Irrigation Solution): Irrisept Antimicrobial Wound Lavage is intended for mechanical cleansing and removal of debris, dirt and foreign materials, including microorganisms from wounds.
Antibiotic-coated Medullary Nail With Saline Irrigation (Treatment Group 2)
Patient will go to the operating room (OR) for treatment with an antibiotic-coated nail and have irrigation and debridement with normal saline. Saline: Saline irrigation
Antibiotic-coated Medullary Nail With Irrisept Irrigation (Treatment Group 3)
Patient will go to the operating room (OR) for treatment with an antibiotic-coated nail and have irrigation and debridement with Irrisept (the experimental irrigation solution). Irrisept (Irrigation Solution): Irrisept Antimicrobial Wound Lavage is intended for mechanical cleansing and removal of debris, dirt and foreign materials, including microorganisms from wounds.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Population: As study was terminated due to difficulty enrolling participants there was no one randomized to the reference/control group. Unable to measure presence or absence of fracture callus due to lack of follow-up with study termination.

Presence or absence of fracture callous measured on x-ray by an experienced orthopaedic surgeon.
