Immediate Weight Bearing as Tolerated Versus Protected Weight Bearing in Supracondylar Distal Femur Fractures; a Prospective, Randomized Study

West Virginia University·interventional·Posted May 25, 2017·Updated Aug 5, 2022

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Full Weight Bearing for Closed Supracondylar Fracture of Femur. Completed, enrolled 53 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

This study is designed to examine if immediate weight bearing on a distal femur fracture fixed with a primary locking plate, either a distal condylar locking plate or a LISS (less invasive stabilization system), is safe and promotes more rapid fracture healing than partial weight bearing, which is standard of care.
