gentamicin and Femoral Fractures

gentamicin has been researched along with Femoral Fractures in 18 studies

Gentamicins: A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS.

Femoral Fractures: Fractures of the femur.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" This study investigates the use of such scaffolds with gentamicin (along with bone morphogenetic protein) in an infected rat open fracture model to decrease osteomyelitis and promote fracture healing."3.76The use of a biodegradable, load-bearing scaffold as a carrier for antibiotics in an infected open fracture model. ( Chu, TM; Cox, JT; Duffy, L; Stannard, J; Stewart, RL; Volgas, D; Waites, KB, 2010)
"To evaluate a new gentamicin-vancomycin- impregnated (2:1) PMMA coating nail as a drug delivery device to treat bone and intramedullary infections, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was used to induce femoral osteomyelitis in 20 New Zealand male rabbits."3.74Preliminary investigations on a new gentamicin and vancomycin-coated PMMA nail for the treatment of bone and intramedullary infections: An experimental study in the rabbit.

Operative and Non-operative Treatment of Traumatic Arthrotomies: A Prospective Observational Study[NCT02841644]180 participants (Actual)Observational2015-04-30Completed
[information is prepared from clinicaltrials.gov, extracted Sep-2024]

Trial Outcomes

Complications

Complications were defined as septic arthritis, return to the OR, rehospitalization, and osteomyelitis of the injured joint. (NCT02841644)
Timeframe: 12 months

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Traumatic Arthrotomy- Treated Nonoperatively4
Traumatic Arthrotomy- Treated Operatively18

Cost of Treatments

To compare the cost of medical care in patients with traumatic arthrotomies treated with surgical irrigation and debridement versus non-operative treatment with local wound care. To estimate cost associated with TAs, total charge data was acquired for all patients treated at the lead site. (NCT02841644)
Timeframe: 12 months

Comparing 3-Month Change in Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey (VR-12) by Treatment Method

The veteran rand 12-tem health survey is used to determine change in health related quality of life to estimate disease burden. It is summarized into two scores, a physical component scores (PCS) (range 0-100) and mental component scores (range- 0-100). Higher score indicate better outcomes. (NCT02841644)
