NCT ID: NCT05701618 Recruiting - Leg Injury Clinical Trials

Psychologically Informed Education Intervention for Adolescents With Atraumatic Lower-Extremity Injuries

Start date: January 30, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized prospective study assessing the impact of psychosocial factors on pain and physical performance among adolescents with leg pain. A set of psychosocial surveys assessing activity-related fear, stress, anxiety and depression will be completed by the participants. Participants will then complete self-report questionnaires assessing pain, quality of life and functional ability followed by an assessment of physical activity levels assessed with a wearable activity monitor;. Participants will then be randomized into one of two intervention groups (psychologically-informed video education group and a control group). After participants receive their assigned educational intervention, the self-report questionnaires will be re-administered. Participants with leg pain pain will then complete follow-up assessment of their psychological beliefs, pain, quality of life, physical activity levels, and self-reported functional ability through REDcap at 1 week, 4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year.

NCT ID: NCT05568784 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Quadriceps Muscle Atrophy

Straight Leg Raise Continuation

SLR
Start date: April 11, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this study is to compare quadriceps muscle activation in patients recovering from lower extremity injury, such as an ACL tear. Specifically, the main objectives are as follows: - Determine the effects of ankle positioning on quad muscle activation during straight leg raise exercises performed while the patient is lying on his or her back - Determine if there is a difference between ankle positioning on quad muscle activation during straight leg raise exercises performed while the patient is lying on his or her back, comparing healthy versus post-operative participants

Comparative Effect of Carbon Fiber Orthosis Cuff Design on Preference, Comfort, and Mechanics

AFOCUFF
Start date: May 17, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Carbon fiber custom dynamic orthoses (CDOs) consist of a proximal cuff that wraps around the leg just below the knee, a posterior carbon fiber strut that stores and returns energy during gait, and a carbon fiber foot plate that supports the foot and allows bending of the posterior strut. The proximal cuff is a primary interface between the patient and the CDO and may influence comfort, preference, limb mechanics and loading, and effective stiffness of the CDO. The important role of the proximal cuff has not been examined. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of CDO proximal cuff design on patient reported outcomes, limb mechanics and loading, and CDO mechanical characteristics.

NCT ID: NCT05167162 Recruiting - Lower Limb Injury Clinical Trials

Efficacy of the Most Commonly Used Physiotherapeutic Treatments for Acute Lower Limb Fatigue in Athletes

Start date: November 6, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Acute fatigue is the inability to generate a required or expected level of force or exercise intensity, whether or not preceded by previous exercise. It is an important risk factor in overuse injuries. It is multifactorial in nature and its mechanisms of formation are imprecise. This type of fatigue can affect both the peripheral level, generating neuromuscular or peripheral fatigue, and the central level, generating central fatigue Objective: To study several physiotherapeutic protocols, analyzing the degree of effectiveness of each one for the recovery of acute fatigue in athletes. Design: Prospective randomized experimental study with 4 groups of physiotherapeutic protocols suitable in acute fatigue recovery. Participants: Presentation of 80 patients treated with 4 therapeutic protocols, equally divided and purposely sexed. The four protocols were divided into: Active recovery (n=20) hydrotherapy (n=20) massage (n=20) and compression (n=20) for 4 weeks of treatment. Intervention: Active recovery protocols (group 1) hydrotherapy protocol (group 2) massage protocol (group 3) and comprehension protocol (group 4). Keywords: Lower limbs, physiotherapy, athlete, biomechanics, protocol.

NCT ID: NCT04608591 Recruiting - Lower Limb Injury Clinical Trials

A Prospective Study to Assess the Risk Factors That Contribute to Thrombosis in Patients With Lower Limb Injuries.

TILLIRI
Start date: December 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

- This study is aimed at identifying patients at high risk for Venous Thrombo-Embolism (VTE) (clots in the veins of legs or clots in the lungs) who have lower limb injuries treated with immobilisation of the lower limb. The study aims to identify high risk patients, who may benefit from thromboprophylaxis (blood thinning medication) to prevent such clots forming. - To do this we will collect data on 3500 patients who present with lower limb injury requiring immobilisation to the Emergency Departments of the six hospitals named. - We will assess their risk factors for venous thrombosis at the time of presentation and contact them at twelve weeks to assess if they have had a VTE in order to develop a risk scoring system which can be used to predict the likelihood of VTE development - This risk scoring system can then be used to identify high risk patients who may benefit from thromboprophylaxis.

NCT ID: NCT04554212 Recruiting - Wounds and Injuries Clinical Trials

Blood Flow Restriction Training After Patellar INStability

BRAINS
Start date: September 9, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research study is designed to allow health care professionals and researchers to answer many questions about whether a new type of physical therapy called blood flow restriction training (called BFRT) will improve recovery for those with patellar instability.

NCT ID: NCT04199013 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

Comparison of Ropivacaine With or Without Fentanyl in Spinal Anaesthesia for Lower Limb Surgeries

Start date: January 10, 2020
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

There has been a wide variety of use of anaesthetic agents along with adjuncts during subarachnoid block. The quest for attaining adequate analgesia and anaesthesia has always been shadowed by the concurrent deleterious effect of the anaesthetic agent. Ropivacaine as an anesthetic agent has proven to meet the desired goals of anaesthesia while minimizing the potential side effects. The addition of different adjuncts has shown to enhance the analgesic property, prolong the duration of sensory blockade and decrease the dose related adverse effects of the local anaesthetics. Fentanyl in this regards has also shown some promising effects. Thus we compare the use of ropivcaine as a single agent versus ropivacaine along with an adjunct (Fentanyl) to attain the desired anesthetic effect while minimizing the associated side effects.

NCT ID: NCT04149977 Recruiting - Lower Limb Injury Clinical Trials

Blood Flow Restriction Therapy in Lower Limb Extensor Injuries

Start date: September 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study is to determine the efficacy of blood flow restriction therapy on patients with lower limb extensor injuries by measuring pre and post blood flow restriction therapy strength and muscle mass.

Muscle Quality and Percentage of Fat Following a Lower Limb Injury

Start date: March 15, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The aim of the study is to longitudinally evaluate patient muscle quality in trauma patients with bed rest or altered weight-bearing with the help of a consumer approved non-proprietary muscle impedance-measuring device. Secondary objectives are to identify patient characteristics or treatment protocols that are predictive of poor muscle quality.
