Gotfried Percutaneous Compression Plate vs. Sliding Hip Screw .
This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Gotfried percutaneous compression plating compared with sliding hip screw fixation of intertrochanteric hip fractures: A prospective randomized study
J Bone Joint Surg Am. 2011 May 18;93(10):942-7.66 patients with an intertrochanteric proximal femur fracture, who met the inclusion criteria, were randomized to surgical fixation with either a Gotfried percutaneous compression plate (PCCP) or the conventional fixation with sliding hip screw (SHS) for treatment of A1 and A2 AO/OTA intertrochanteric proximal femoral fractures. The percutaneous compression plate was found to be favorable with regards to operating times, incision length, and blood loss. Other outcome measures (ability to walk independently, Quality of Life, level of pain with activity) showed no statistically significant differences.
