This research aims to assess physiotherapy utilization in the treatment of patients with an anterior-cruciate ligament knee injury, when delivered before their surgery (prehab), and its potential effects on absence from work, and patients global health consumptions (before and after the surgery).
Purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of the criterion rehabilitation protocol versus accelerated rehabilitation protocol on the biomechanical determinants of the quality of performance and risk of reinjury.
Background Cycling is a very popular activity and has various health benefits. Knee pain is very common among recreational cyclists and often limits cyclists to perform their sport. Physiotherapy care including a bike fit is often a recommended treatment for cyclists with knee pain. Objective The aim of this proposal is to prospectively describe physiotherapy care (bike fit, education and exercises) and evaluate change in knee-related pain and disability among recreational cyclists with knee pain. Methods In this prospective observational study, 70 recreational cyclists consulting for knee pain at Physiovélo will be recruited. Physiovélo is a physiotherapy clinic specialized in bike fitting and in the assessment of cyclists with musculoskeletal disorders. Main findings from the bike fit assessment as well as interventions provided in terms of bike fit adjustment, education, advice and exercises will be collected. Various outcomes related to cycling such as cycling distance per week will also be collected. The primary outcome will knee pain during cycling measured with the numerical pain rating scale (NPRS, 0-10). Secondary outcomes will include disability measured with the Knee Outcome Survey of the Activities of Daily Living Scale (KOS-ADLS) and with a modified version of the Knee Outcome Survey Sports Activities Scale (KOS-SAS) for cyclist. Satisfaction with care will be measured with the visit-specific satisfaction questionnaire (VSQ-9). Adverse events related to the interventions will be collected. Outcomes will be collected on initial assessment and at 4 and 12 weeks after the consultation. Intention-to-treat analyses will be performed.
The goal of this observational study is to gain insight in the natural course of pro-inflammatory factors and hemarthrosis in patients older than 18 with a recent knee trauma. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What is the natural course of pro-inflammatory factors and hemarthrosis in knee trauma? - What are the effects of inflammation and hemarthrosis on the anti-inflammatory potential of ASC's in order to better determine eligible patients and circumstances for ASC's therapy? Participants will: - undergo blood withdrawal - undergo knee arthrocentesis for synovial fluid sample collection - physical examination - fill out a questionnaire on knee complaints
The main purpose of this study is to look at whether meditation techniques can help reduce pain and opioid use after surgery.
The measurement of the patellar height is essential to decide and quantify the surgical correction to be made. The classic index is that of Cato and Deschamps. It has the advantage of its simplicity, with the measurement on a simple profile radiograph of the ratio between the distance from the patella to the tibia and the length of the patella. However, it has the disadvantage of measuring this height in relation to the tibia when the dislocation is located at the level of the patello-trochlear joint. The MRI index of sagittal patellar engagement on the trochlea (IES), described in 2012, does not have this drawback but it does not appear to be reliable: its value depends, in fact, on the flexion of the knee. This flexion, required by the MRI, is variable and is not specified by the radiologist. It is due to the use of an "antenna" that surrounds and lifts the knee. The hypothesis of the study is that it is possible to determine and validate a new IES, in knee extension and therefore reproducible, thanks to the measurement of knee flexion on MRI. The precise value of this flexion can allow a virtual correction of the original IES to obtain, by mathematical calculation, the new IES in virtual extension.
To monitor residual risks in the post-market phase and to ensure continued clinical evaluation of the device safety and performance to ensure that no new or unexpected risks arise when used during multi-ligament knee reconstructions.
To evaluate the effectiveness of the goal development intervention in guiding individual patients through the identification of high quality, specific, measurable, relevant and time-bound goal for treatment.
