About this study
The North American Scapula Consortium (NASCon) is a multi-center injury specific outcomes registry. There currently exists a paucity of outcomes data in the literature on this patient population. The NASCon registry will be a resource in which investigators can conduct adequately powered clinical outcomes research resulting in higher quality research with meaningful results, improved patient care, and evidence-based advancement for the treatment of scapula fractures. Registries can lead to significant discoveries in comparative effectiveness specifically in areas where randomized control studies are not possible. Collecting post-treatment (operative and non-operative) patient outcome data for similar injury patterns has been shown effective in uncovering optimal standards for treatment.
