Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial of Internal Fixation of Intertrochanteric Fractures of Femur Guided by Conventional Versus IF-AI Artificial Intelligence Program

December 22, 2023 updated by: Peking University Third Hospital
Our team has developed an AI software to guide the surgical protocol for femoral intertrochanteric fractures. This is a prospective randomized controlled clinical study that will include patients with femoral intertrochanteric fractures combining medial posterior and lateral wall fractures, and will randomly divide the patients into a traditional surgical protocol group and an AI-guided surgical protocol group. The efficacy and safety indexes such as operation time, blood loss, operation cost, infection rate, hospitalization time, postoperative pain score, fracture healing time, internal fixation failure rate and mortality rate were compared between the two groups to verify the efficacy and safety of AI-guided surgical treatment plan.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Over 60 years old, male or female.
  2. Osteoporosis intertrochanteric fracture, which met the diagnostic criteria of X-ray intertrochanteric fracture, and osteoporosis T-value <2.5.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: AI-guided surgical protocol group
At present, the indications for internal fixation of intertrochanteric fractures are not clear. We developed an artificial intelligence software to assist surgeons in determining whether to immobilize lateral and medial posterior wall fractures.
No Intervention: traditional surgical protocol group

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Fracture healing situation 36 weeks after surgery
Time Frame: 36 weeks after surgery
The results of surgical treatment of the patient were shown by imaging data at 36 weeks after surgery, and the treatment was considered successful without failure of internal fixation.
36 weeks after surgery
