简要总结

Reaming (enlarging of the bone canal) is commonly performed prior to the insertion of intramedullary nails for the fixation of long bone fractures. This study is designed to compare the union rates between fractures reamed by standard reaming versus reaming with a Reamer/Irrigator/ Aspirator (RIA). In addition, this study will collect patient-based outcomes on these patients. Little information exists on the patient based outcomes following femur fractures. We hope that the patient based outcomes of this study will also be able to aid physicians in advising patients with femur fractures of their possible outcomes.
