NCT02836366

Brief Summary

With this study results of the Targon® PH+ nail, developed for the treatment of humeral head fractures, will be investigated clinically, radiological evaluation is optional. The primary objective of this study is to examine the effect of a plating treatment on the speed of recovery of functional capacity in adult patients. Secondary aims are to examine the level of pain, patient satisfaction, shoulder function, quality of life, radiological evaluation and complications. Targon PH+ is CE certified. The study is a non-interventional cohort study sponsored by Aesculap

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Functional Capacity

    The DASH score (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand) will be used to determine the recovery of functional capacity. It provides a summary of the responses on a scale of 0 (no disability) to 100 (severe disability)

    24 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Level of pain

    3, 12 and 24 months

  • Patient satisfaction

    24 months

  • Shoulder Function

    12 months, 24 months

  • Radiological outcome (only if it could be raised in clinical standard)

    24 months

  • Adverse Events

    24 months
