Title: |

Partner(s): |
Oregon State University College of Public Health & Human Sciences; the Institute for Patient- and Family-Centered Care |

Funding: |

Project Period: |
Planning stage |
|
Summary: |
Distal radius fractures account for nearly one-fifth of all fractures in the United States. There exists debate regarding the treatment of closed fractures – cast or surgical intervention? Yet, currently published studies on patient-reported outcomes suggest variability in “success” following intervention has not been fully described using currently available tools. To better define what patients value in distal radius fracture treatment and rehabilitation, we will form a patient and family advisory committee to redefine the value equation. |

Title: |
Multi-center ACL revision study (MARS) |
|
Investigators: |
Brick Lantz, MD and Rudolf Hoellrich, MD |
|
Partner(s): |
MARS investigator group; Vanderbilt University, National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) |
|
Project Period: |
2008 – current |
|
Summary: |
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of modifiable risk factors on patient-reported quality of life, physical activity levels, and risk of early osteoarthritis following revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The investigators hypothesize that modifiable variables exist at the time of revision ACL reconstruction (e.g., cause of failure, current graft source and type, surgical exposure, and femoral and tibial tunnel position) which will be predictors of patient-reported outcomes. |
