Study Summary

This study is a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the clinical outcomes of bioabsorbable screws to conventional metal screws in pediatric patients (aged 0 to 18) undergoing surgical fixation for trauma or elective procedures. Conducted by the pediatric orthopedic department at Children's Hospital New Orleans, the study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these screws in bone healing over key post-operative intervals (6 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year). It seeks to determine if bioabsorbable screws offer significant advantages over metal screws in terms of reducing the need for secondary surgeries, based on their hypothesized noninferiority in complication rates. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either bioabsorbable or metal (titanium or stainless steel) screws after obtaining informed consent from a parent or guardian.
