Compares treatment options for Femoral Neck Fractures
Official title Artificial Intelligence-Assisted vs Surgeon-Planned Trajectories in Freehand Femoral Neck Screw Fixation
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06937138
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different methods of screw path planning-AI-assisted versus surgeon-directed-in freehand percutaneous femoral neck fracture fixation surgery. The study will include adult patients diagnosed with femoral neck fractures who are eligible for cannulated screw fixation under fluoroscopic guidance.The main questions it aims to answer are: Does AI-assisted screw path planning improve the radiographic accuracy of screw placement (screw deviation, tip position, and inter-screw parallelism)?
