Clinical Outcomes After Treatment of Distal Humerus Fractures With the LORRAINE 2.5/3.5 mm Distal Humerus System
Sponsor: Bonebridge AG
Summary
Distal humerus fractures are fractures of the lower part of the upper arm bone near the elbow. These fractures often require surgery using plates and screws to stabilize the bone while it heals. This observational study will evaluate adults with distal humerus fractures who are treated with the LORRAINE 2.5/3.5 mm Distal Humerus System as part of routine clinical care. The study does not assign or change the treatment selected by the treating surgeon. Up to 100 participants will be enrolled and followed for up to 12 months after surgery. The study will evaluate radiographic and clinical fracture healing. It will also assess elbow function, range of motion, quality of life, pain, adverse events, radiographic findings, and reoperations.

LORRAINE 2.5/3.5 mm Distal Humerus System
The LORRAINE 2.5/3.5 mm Distal Humerus System is an internal fixation system consisting of locking plates and screws used for open reduction and internal fixation of distal humerus fractures. For this study, the fixation construct includes, at minimum, a medial and a posterolateral plate. Additional fragment plates may be used as clinically necessary. LORRAINE 3.5 mm Extraarticular Distal Humerus Plates are excluded from the study. The decision to treat a patient with the LORRAINE System is made by the treating surgeon as part of routine clinical care and is not assigned by the study protocol. The device is used according to its cleared indications and Instructions for Use. Study participation does not alter the patient's surgical treatment.
