Filter by:The main purpose of this project is to investigate the accuracy of pocket-sized ultrasound (PsUS) in the diagnosis of pediatric elbow fractures. The primary research objective is to determine the test performance characteristics of PSUS performed by pediatric emergency medicine physicians compared to radiography for the detection of pediatric elbow fractures. The project will consist of two parts, first involving a feasibility study and followed by an active study. The feasibility study will aim to answer if providers can perform an adequate elbow ultrasound exam after a brief study training. The active study will investigate the initial accuracy of the PsUS. Participants will be asked in either the feasibility or the active phases of the study to undergo a brief pocket-sized ultrasound elbow exam of both elbows. Patient will continue to receive their previously determined clinical ED management. In the active phase of the study, participant's elbow X-rays or if patient underwent bedside nursemaid reduction will be the comparison to pocket-sized ultrasound images.
The purpose of this research study is to assess whether the presence of therapy dogs can reduce pain and anxiety in children ages 3 to 10 having pins removed from their elbow.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the results of reconstruction of neglected and failed cases of terrible triad of the elbow
The objective of this retrospective and prospective consecutive series PMCF study is to collect long-term data confirming safety, performance and clinical benefits of the ExploR Radial Head System (implants and instrumentation) when used for radial head arthroplasty.
Decathlon has developed the Elbow soft300 which is a medical device that must be positioned around the elbow to keep a physical activity on a regular basis in case of chronic epicondylitis, pain associated with tendonitis or chronic instability. The objective of this multicentre study is to collect data on the related clinical complications and clinical outcomes of market-approved Decathlon Elbow soft 300 product to demonstrate safety and performance of this device in a real-world setting. Outcome data collected from this study will provide the basis for Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) reporting, Clinical Study Report (CSR), Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) on Decathlon ElbowSoft300 device and support peer-reviewed publications on products performance and safety.
The purpose of this study is to validate whether the use of a self-reported diary for orthosis use is accurate and valid. We will insert a temperature gauge into the orthosis during fabrication that measures temperature to an accuracy of one degree Celcius. This sensor is about the size of a watch battery, and patients will be told that it is measuring the force of stretch applied to the elbow, while in fact, it is measuring the amount of time that the orthosis is being worn. The temperature of the skin while wearing the orthosis heats up the sensor, and we can accurately predict (within 5 minutes of accuracy) how long the orthosis is worn each day. We will have patients also fill out a self-report diary outlining how long they are wearing the orthosis each day, and compare these times to the measurements taken by the sensor. As secondary outcomes, we will look at whether the orthoses improve elbow range of motion (ROM), patient satisfaction, and improvement over time on patient reported outcome measures. This study will provide important information about the validity and reliability of using diaries to measure adherence to orthoses, and will be the first to provide objective data regarding the actual use of these orthoses and whether they help to decrease elbow stiffness.
This study will be looking at people with lateral elbow tendinopathy (elbow pain). The goal is to determine if a one-time isometric intervention will positively change the level of pain and strength as compared to baseline measurements. After determining baseline strength and pain level, an intervention consisting of several trials of isometric hand/wrist contractions will be performed by the participant. Pain and strength will again be assessed immediately after the intervention.
PrEvention of posttraumatic contractuRes with Ketotifen 2 (PERK 2) is a Phase III randomized, controlled, double blinded multicenter trial with 3 parallel groups (Ketotifen 2 mg or 5 mg or lactose placebo twice daily orally for 6 weeks) and a primary endpoint of elbow extension-flexion range of motion (ROM) arc at 12 weeks post-randomization.
This study compares patients with post traumatic elbow stiffness and evaluate the range of motion improvement with two types of treatment: surgical release versus non-surgical rehabilitation protocol with orthoses.
This pilot study is designed to determine if the rehabilitative benefits of continuous passive motion (CPM) will help preserve/restore the joint function and significantly improve the rate of recovery of patients after the surgical release of elbow contractures better than standard physiotherapy and static splinting.
