A Study to Verify if the Surgery for the Proximal Femur Fracture Can be Improved With the Help of a Navigation System
Improving Intramedullary Nailing of Proximal Femoral Fractures Through a Navigation Assisted Technique: a Double Blinded Randomized Control Trial

Conditions
Summary
The ADAPT system is a software that calculate a virtual 3D reconstruction of the femoral head without additional radiation. It automatically detects the used implant and its position relative to the femoral head, helping the surgeon to achieve an optimal proximal screw positioning in the femoral head. The investigators want to verify if with the addition of the ADAPT system the investigators can improve screw placement and reduce surgery time and radiation exposure.

Interventions
Stryker ADAPT®system (ADAPT, Stryker Leibinger GmbH \& Co. KG, Freiburg, Germany) is a computer navigation system which can reconstruct a 3D model of the femoral head from the positional information oriented by bidirectional fluoroscopic views. ADAPT shows the distance from the tip of the screw to the surface of the femoral head, tip-to-head-surface distance (TSD), and tip-apex distance (TAD) intraoperatively
