Filter by:The study is conducted sequentially in two parts. Part A: The purpose is to obtain information on PK profile, pharmacodynamics (PD), efficacy, safety, and to assess the performance of 266 mg EXPAREL vs 133 mg EXPAREL. Part B: The purpose is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the preferred dosage of EXPAREL from Part A compared with bupivacaine HCl.
By means of clinical satisfaction and clinical scores comparison of an open to a minimally invasive distal chevron osteotomy for correction of a hallux valgus deformity is performed.
The primary objective is to evaluate the impact on pre-operative anxiety management of using the virtual reality mask for surgery of hallux valgus.
In acute lower limb ischemia the main goal of the treatment is to restore the blood before irreversible damage to the soft tissues of the limb. Delays in identifying acute lower limb ischemia may lead to limb loss or lead to the loss of the patient. Situations in which the patient is unable to express symptoms of the acute lower limb ischemia, such as during general anesthesia, in intensive care, or immediately after vascular surgery, are challenging for medical staff to identify. A reliable, easy-to-use and non-invasive monitoring method is not yet in every day use. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that Near InfraRed Spectroscopy (NIRS) monitoring is such a monitoring method. Tourniquet induced ischemia is often used in hallux valgus surgery because it offers a bloodless view of the anatomical structures. In our study we will measure the soft tissue perfusion (rSO2) of the lower limbs during the whole operation. The sensors based on near-infrared spectroscopy will be located to the tibial surface and will record the normal state before the start of the tourniquet, during the tourniquet and also in the recovery phase. The hypothesis is that rSO2 decreases linearly as a function of time from the beginning of the tourniquet induced ischemia and the recovery time depends on the duration of the tourniquet. In our study the patients will be operated under a spinal anesthesia. We also hypothesise that rSO2 increases due to the induction of the spinal anesthesia. Our goal is to define the percentual decline of rSO2 that is significant for lower limb ischemia and also its time response to induction of ischemia.
Manual approach of Hallux Valgus with global postural reeducation.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of splinting, exercise and electrotherapy on the hallux valgus (HV) angle, and foot-specific health-related quality of life. Sixty women (120 feet) with bilateral HV deformity were randomly assigned to one of three groups - an HV night splint (SP) group, an exercise (EX) group, and a high-voltage galvanic stimulation (EL) group. Angular degrees (hallux interphalangeal, HV, and intermetatarsal angles expressed as angles A, B and C, respectively) were determined before enrollment (t0) and three months after treatment (t2). Foot-specific quality of life was assessed using the Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire (MOFQ) at t0, after one month (t1), and at t2. All groups exhibited significant changes in the A, B, and C angles and outcome measures (p ≤0.001). Decreases in the A and C angles, and MOFQ-Pain subscale scores, were higher in the SP group than in the other two groups (p<0.05). C angle at t2, MOFQ-Walking score at t1 and t2 and MOFQ-Pain subscale score at t1 were lower in the SP group (p<0.05).
The main goal of the surgical correction of the hallux valgus is the morphological correction associated with the functional rebalancing of the first ray. The aim of this study was to show the efficacy of piezosurgery in performing distal linear osteotomy of the first metatarsal bone in hallux valgus correction, in terms of clinical and radiological outcomes at 1-year final follow up.
This study analyses the Reverdin Isham procedure, which is the most popular minimally invasive surgical hallux valgus correction method and the minimally invasive chevron osteotomy, representing the standard technique of open surgery. It is hypothesized that the two techniques would show significant differences in regard to radiological outcome (Hypothesis 1), clinical outcome (Hypothesis 2) and development of radiological recurrence (Hypothesis 3).
In hallux valgus deformity an additional deformity of the proximal phalangeal bone can be observed frequently as well. Due to a hyperpronation of the greater toe on standardized radiographs the deformity defining angles are likely to be underestimated. Therefore the investigators developed an off axis view radiograph for determining the real deformity. This study compares the standardized and the off axis view radiographs.
This is a retrospective study evaluating the safety and performance of the MINITAC Suture anchors for extremities repair. Data will be used to support Notified Body (BSI) requirements for extremities repair indications.
