Surgical fixation compared with cast immobilisation for adults with a bicortical fracture of the scaphoid waist: the SWIFFT RCT [PDF]
Background: Scaphoid fractures account for 90% of carpal fractures and occur predominantly in young men. Immediate surgical fixation of this fracture has increased.

An evaluation of the conservative management of fractures with plaster in a Maltese primary health centre [PDF]
Introduction: Fracture management still remains a grey area in primary care internationally. In Malta, conservative fracture management operates as the Plaster Slab Service, a service which has never been evaluated. The purpose of this study is to assess

Scaphoid Waist Internal Fixation for Fractures Trial (SWIFFT) protocol : a pragmatic multi-centre randomised controlled trial of cast treatment versus surgical fixation for the treatment of bi-cortical, minimally displaced fractures of the scaphoid waist in adults [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A scaphoid fracture is the most common type of carpal fracture affecting young active people. The optimal management of this fracture is uncertain.

The Feasibility of High-Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HR-pQCT) in Patients with Suspected Scaphoid Fractures [PDF]
Introduction: Diagnosing scaphoid fractures remains challenging. High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) might be a potential imaging technique, but no data are available on its feasibility to scan the scaphoid bone in vivo.
