Official title
A Multi-Center Randomized Controlled Pilot Study of Dynamic Locking Screws 5.0 vs. Standard Locking Screws in Fracture of Distal Femur Treated With Locked Plate Fixation
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of Dynamic Locking Screws (DLS) used to stabilize the shaft component of distal femur fractures in comparison to standard locking screws (SLS). The hypothesis is that DLS will lead to better functional outcomes (WOMAC score) due to increased and more symmetrical callus formation and fewer non-unions.
