“…The SMFA is reliable, valid, and responsive in patients with musculoskeletal disorders and acute injuries (Engelberg et al, 1996;Swiontkowski et al, 1999). A clinically important difference (MCID) for the SMFA Dysfunction Index has been reported to range from 4.4 to 7-points in patients with traumatic lower extremity injury (Busse et al, 2009;Dattani et al, 2013).…”

Purpose To determine feasibility and acceptability of a telephone‐based Cognitive‐Behavioral‐Based Physical Therapy program for patients following traumatic lower extremity injury (CBPT‐Trauma). Methods Patients were screened for high psychosocial risk factors and then completed the 6‐week CBPT‐Trauma program. Physical function, pain, and psychosocial outcomes were assessed at baseline and 6‐months follow‐up. Descriptive statistics assessed change in outcomes. Results Recruitment rate was 59%. Twenty‐seven patients (73%) had a high psychosocial risk profile. Twelve patients completed the program and the follow‐up assessment at 6 months and found the program to be very or extremely helpful to their overall recovery. All demonstrated a clinically meaningful increase in physical function. Six patients demonstrated a clinically relevant decrease in pain intensity, pain catastrophizing, and fear of movement. Seven patients reported a clinically meaningful increase in pain self‐efficacy. Discussion Findings suggest that recruitment is feasible for CBPT‐Trauma program. However, engagement in the CBPT‐Trauma study was low. For those that completed the program, patients were satisfied with the CBPT‐Trauma program and experienced meaningful improvement in psychosocial factors and patient‐reported outcomes. This open pilot study highlights the importance of targeted treatment for patients at high‐risk for poor outcomes and the potential for increased access to services through telephone‐delivery.

BackgroundHip fractures are a common type of fragility fracture that afflict 293,000 Americans (over 5,000 per week) and 35,000 Canadians (over 670 per week) annually. Despite the large population impact the optimal fixation technique for low energy femoral neck fractures remains controversial. The primary objective of the FAITH study is to assess the impact of cancellous screw fixation versus sliding hip screws on rates of revision surgery at 24 months in individuals with femoral neck fractures. The secondary objective is to determine the impact on health-related quality of life, functional outcomes, health state utilities, fracture healing, mortality and fracture-related adverse events.Methods/DesignFAITH is a multi-centre, multi-national randomized controlled trial utilizing minimization to determine patient allocation. Surgeons in North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia will recruit a total of at least 1,000 patients with low-energy femoral neck fractures. Using central randomization, patients will be allocated to receive surgical treatment with cancellous screws or a sliding hip screw. Patient outcomes will be assessed at one week (baseline), 10 weeks, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months post initial fixation. We will independently adjudicate revision surgery and complications within 24 months of the initial fixation. Outcome analysis will be performed using a Cox proportional hazards model and likelihood ratio test.DiscussionThis study represents major international efforts to definitively resolve the treatment of low-energy femoral neck fractures. This trial will not only change current Orthopaedic practice, but will also set a benchmark for the conduct of future Orthopaedic trials.Trial registrationThe FAITH trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier NCT00761813).
