Filter by:This study is intended to gather medium (5- to 7-years) and long-term (minimum 8- to 10-years) information regarding the performance and safety of the commercially available 36mm CERAMAX® Ceramic on Ceramic (COC) Total Hip System from a cohort of study subjects that were previously enrolled in the IDE study. (COC = 36mm ceramic acetabular bearing insert component that articulates with a ceramic femoral head in the COC total hip replacement system)
The purpose of this focused registry is to evaluate the clinical implications of the RHP position (relative to the articulations) regarding functional and radiographic parameters in patients treated with the RHP with a straight and curved stem.
Evaluate Survivorship for the Biomet® Comprehensive® Reverse Shoulder Mini Baseplate.
Sacroiliac joint pain reduction and radiographic evidence of SIJ fusion will be collected to evaluate clinical performance of the SImmetry Sacroiliac Joint Fusion System.
Total knee replacement is one of the most commonly performed orthopedic procedures. As of 2010, about 600,000 total knee replacements were being performed annually in the United States and these numbers are rising. The normal knee joint functions as a complex hinge allowing primarily flexion and extension, rotation and gliding. The knee joint is made up of three compartments, the lateral, medial and anterior (patellofemoral). Damage to the cartilage of one or more compartments may be the result of osteoarthritis (idiopathic or post-traumatic), inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid,psoriatic, etc.), a-vascular necrosis, tumors, or congenital deformities. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are the causes of the overwhelming majority of total joint arthroplasties. A successful Total knee arthroplasty(TKA) surgery includes: an accurate alignment( the mechanical axis in axial and rotational planes), as well as significant pain relief which improves function and quality of life. Incorrect alignment can lead to abnormal wear, premature mechanical loosening of the components and patellofemoral problems. The common techniques for Total knee replacement are: 1. Conventional method TKR 2. CT/MRI-based preoperative navigated TKR 3. Image-free intraoperative navigated TKR In our research we focus on the 3rd method using the Orthopilot navigation system Aesculap®, Tutlingen, Germany. This system is an active PC based guiding system that helps the surgeon decide on the accurate alignment and orientation of the implant and cutting surfaces of the bone and thus avoid incorrect alignment. We aim to compare between pre-operative and post-operative lower limb alignment (mechanical axis) in Aesculap based TKA using serview CT. Furthermore, we will try to examine the existence of a correlation between the CT scans and the Orthopilot navigation system output and assess the clinical outcome of the patient postoperatively. Our Hypothesis is that the intra-operative navigation system is accurate and correlated to CT images results, moreover, allows the surgeon to achieve a good mechanical axis and high clinical outcome,
The purpose of the SAIF study is to evaluate the SImmetry Sacroiliac Joint Fusion System for fusion and pain reduction of the SI joint.
The aim of this study is to assess safety and general performance of total hip arthroplasty, composed of a Meije Duo® femoral stem associated with a Dynacup® cup, and using the friction pair Biolox® Delta Ceramic.
To the Investigators' knowledge, TXA has not been studied in the setting of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. We propose a double-blinded, randomized, controlled trial comparing perioperative administration of TXA to placebo in the setting of RTSA. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of TXA in reducing overall blood loss and transfusion rates in patients undergoing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic performance of the G7 Acetabular Cup System.
Gait dysfunction often occurs following stroke, neurological or musculoskeletal disease, injury and surgery. One of the consequences of such deficit is an increased risk of fall and injury. A gait training regime that incorporates controlled perturbation has been found to reduce falls in elderly population but the effectiveness of such training has yet to be studied. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of specific controlled dynamic perturbation training, during gait, on gait rehabilitation, fear of falling and falling with gait impaired individuals. Perturbation will be performed using a specifically designed system that provides small, controlled and unpredictable perturbations during treadmill walking.
