Official title
External Fixation Versus Splinting of Acute Calcaneus Fractures Prior to Definitive Surgery
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Aim: * Determine if external fixation decreases soft tissue complications compared to splinting. * Determine if external fixation decreases time to definitive surgical stabilization and improves final fixation compared to splinting. * Determine if external fixation improves functional outcomes as evaluated by validated functional scoring systems. Hypothesis: * External fixation improves definitive fixation and functional outcomes of acute calcaneal fractures with decreased complication rates compared to splinting
