简要总结
- Purpose of this study is to assess the results of Femoral neck system in treatment of fracture neck of femur. This study will be conducted from December 2024 to April 2026 and will recruit 50 or more participants. The study will involve analyzing the results of Femoral neck system in fracture neck of femur by observing the progress in patients treated with the same. This will include detailed history taking, clinical examination, study of X-rays of the participants. Femoral neck system is standard of care in fracture neck of femur. All adult patientswithFemur neck fractures planned for Internal fixation with Femoral neck system will be included in this study. Pre-operative clinical assessment will include Recording Harris hip score, Charite mobility index and pain as per visual analogue scale for all patients at presentation. Radiological assessment will include Recording femur neck length and femur neck shaft angles from X-rays at presentation. Post-operative assessment will be done Immediate post-op and at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 1 year follow-ups [The follow up durations are routinely followed as standard of care and not done for purpose of study] which will include Recording Harris hip scores, Charite mobility index and pain. Radiological assessment will include noting Fracture union [RUSH), Non-union, loss of fixation, Avascular necrosis of femoral head. Femoral neck fractures are very common and account for over 50% of all hip fractures. Standard treatment for fracture neck of femur is surgical. The surgical treatment can either be internal fixation or arthroplasty depending on the age of the patient. The novel technique of FNS developed in 2018 is a relatively minimally invasive procedure which reduces blood loss and infection risk. Biomechanical studies have shown axial and rotational stability, operative time, union rates and stability of FNS are similar to other surgical options while being superior in terms of intraoperative blood loss, non- union, internal fixation failure and betterment of Harris hip scores. There are few reports discussing clinical implementation of FNS out of which most are retrospective in nature and include a small cluster of patients. Intra-operative and Post-operative parameters of FNS have not been fully explored. This study will increase the available data on femoral neck system surgery and may provide more clarity on its outcomes. It will also help in validating the previous studies done by reproducing the results.
