About this study

Official title: CLAVICLE FRACTURE OUTCOMES: 1-3 YEAR FOLLOW UP OF DISPLACED MIDSHAFT FRACTURES TREATED WITH INTRAMEDULARY NAIL vs. NONOPERATIVE TREATMENT

The objective of this post-market clinical study is to compare one to three year post treatment results, range of motion, strength, patient related functional outcomes and patient satisfaction, of internal fixation using the Sonoma Orthopedic Products CRx™ as compared to nonoperative management (e.g. sling) of similar displaced midshaft clavicle fractures.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CRxDevice

    Also called Intramedullary Nail

    The CRx is used to treat mid-shaft, with or without comminution clavicle fractures.

Study groups in NCT01975467
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control Group - NonoperativeSubjects that were treated with a sling for their displaced midshaft clavicle fracture.
Test Group - Intramedullary NailSubjects that were treated with an intramedullary nail for their displaced midshaft clavicle fracture.
Receives: Device: CRx

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. DASH Score

    Subjects that are one to three years post-treatment will undergo an evaluation of fracture outcome utilizing the DASH instrument for function.

    Measured: One time point

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Range of Motion and Strength

    The ASES instrument will be used to assess range of motion and strength.

    Measured: One time point
