Improve the Quality of Care in Patients With Orthopaedic Disorders

Sponsor: Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain

Summary

The main objective of the investigators is to improve the quality of care in patients with orthopedic disorders followed in St Luc hospital (Brussels Belgium). To do this, the investigators want to assess the impact of Orthopedic treatments at the structural level (bone structure, muscle, etc.), at the functional level (mobility, strength, stiffness...), on the restriction of activities of patients (walking, make its care daily..) and on the limitation of participation in the life of every day (sport, work, social life, cultural...). This functional evaluation of patients with orthopedic disorders by the ICF model is an original approach rarely used in muscular-skeletal impairments that can very improve the management of these patients and their quality of life. In addition, the investigators associate the harvesting of all medical and computer data collected by high-precision tools in the surgical treatments, to better define the surgical precision and improve the quality of surgical care.
