Comparison of the Speed of Functional Recovery (Constant Score) Between Two Different Approaches of Humeral Nailing in Humeral Fractures: Through the Rotator Cuff or Through the Rotator Interval Split (HUNAAP)

NCT04917536 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 80

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the study is to show if there is any speed difference of functional recovery for people with humeral fracture, treated by an anterograde nail, which will be inserted through the rotator cuff (the common way) or through the rotator interval split.

The patients included in this study will be randomized to one of the two groups.

The recovery will be evaluated by the Constant score over time, for a year. The main hypothesis is the rotator interval split approach allows a faster functional recovery after humeral nailing, by avoiding opening the rotator cuff.
