Tibial Fractures clinical trials at UCSF
1 research study open to eligible people
Tibial fractures are breaks in the shin bone. UCSF is exploring how starting weight bearing early or late affects recovery in patients with ankle and tibial plateau fractures. These studies compare recovery outcomes between early and delayed weight bearing.
Early Weight Bearing on Rehabilitation Outcomes in Patients with Traumatic Ankle and Tibial Plateau Fractures
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The overall objective of this study is to compare outcomes following early versus delayed weight bearing for adult patients operatively treated for an ankle fracture without syndesmotic fixation. Additionally, early weight bearing will be tested in patients with unicondylar plateau fractures that do not involve joint impaction in the context of a pilot study.
