Pilot Trial for WounDx™ Clinical Decision Support Tool

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the overall use of the WounDx medical device in a clinical setting, such as a hospital. The WounDx device is experimental and not yet approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). WounDx uses information about a patient's wound to generate a report that a surgeon may use to help determine when to close or not close the wound. The final decision to close the wound remains with the surgeon. The results from this pilot trial will inform a larger pivotal trial.

Procedural Sedation and Analgesia for Treatment of Adults With Fractures and Dislocations in the Emergency Department

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of different procedural sedation and analgesia methods used for adults with painful fractures requiring reduction treatment in the emergency department. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Which sedation and analgesia methods provide the best patient satisfaction and pain relief? * How do different treatment methods affect clinician satisfaction and the occurrence of adverse events? The investigators will compare different types of procedural sedative and analgesic treatments (such as systemic sedation/analgesia and regional techniques like nerve or hematoma blocks) to see which approach offers the best patient satisfaction and most effective pain control. Participants will: Be adult patients with upper or lower extremity fractures or joint dislocations requiring painful reduction procedures. Receive one of the routinely used sedation or analgesia treatments (or no analgesia) during their emergency department care. Report their pain levels and satisfaction before, during, and after treatment. Be monitored for any side effects, complications, or use of antidotes. Data will be collected over a six-month period at Odense University Hospital, Holbæk Hospital, and Zealand University Hospital, Køge, following the STROBE guidelines for observational studies.
