Protocol summary

Study aim
Investigating the effect of lesser trochanter fixation on hip joint flexion strength in patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture.
Design
Clinical trial with control group, double blind, randomized, phase 2 on 52 patients. Excel software was used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
Patients referred to Shahid Madani Medical Education Center during 1401 were randomly divided into two groups, in the intervention group,after the main surgery, the lesser trochanter was also fixed with a wire, and in the control group, was not fixed. Next, at 6-week, 3-month, and 6-month intervals, hip flexion strength will be compared with the opposite limb. The strength of hip joint flexion is measured manually and varies from zero-fifth to five-fifth.The examination of muscle strength is done by(Dr. Mohammad Sajjad Mir Hosseini), who is the project guide, and doesn't know which group the examinee belongs to.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inc criteria: 1) Patients with intertrochanteric fracture of the femur with separation of the lesser trochanter referred to Shahid Madani Medical Training Center during 1401 2) Mastery of speech and understanding of Persian language 3) Consent to participate in the study 4) Age> 18 yrs Exc criteria: 1) Lack of consent to participate in the study 2) Contraindications for surgery 3) Concomitant diseases that affect the power of limb flexion.
Intervention groups
Patients referred to Shahid Madani Medical Education Center during 1401 were randomly divided into two groups, in the intervention group,after the main surgery, the lesser trochanter was fixed with a wire, and in the control group was not fixed
Main outcome variables
flexion strength of the hip joint

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Randomization among patients with simultaneous intertrochanteric fracture of the femur bone and separation of the lesser trochanter is a simple randomization method, the randomization unit is individual and using a table of random numbers.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Examination of muscle strength by only one orthopedic surgeon (Dr. Mohammad Sajjad Mir Hosseini) who is the master of the project It is carried out and the examiner is not aware of which group the examinee belongs to. Also the patients themselves are not aware of which group they are in (double blind).
Placebo
Not used
Assignment
Parallel
Other design features
Patients with the same type of fracture are divided into two groups. In the first or control group, routine and gold standard treatment of intertrochanteric fracture is performed. In the intervention group, in addition to routine and gold standard fracture treatment, fixation of the lesser trochanter of the femur is also done with the help of wire. is done and the purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of fixation on hip flexion strength

Secondary outcomes

empty

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: patients with intertrochanteric fracture of the femur who simultaneously have separation of the lesser trochanter. In these patients, in addition to the surgical treatment of intertrochanteric fracture (using common methods such as using DHS plate or cephalomedullary nail, etc.), their femoral lesser trochanter is also fixed with the help of wire. To perform the intervention (fixation of the lesser trochanter), no other tool is needed except for the wire and its guide (wire passer).
Category
Treatment - Surgery

2

Description
Control group: patients with simultaneous intertrochanteric fracture and separation of the lesser trochanter of the femur, who are treated commonly and routinely, but fixation of the lesser trochanter is not done in them.
Category
Treatment - Surgery
