Filter by:The general purpose of this study is to evaluate the relation between the nutritional status of patients, the features of the orthobiologics products used for patients' treatment and the clinical outcomes after one-step conservative regenerative treatment for knee osteoarthritis.
This is a two-arm randomized controlled trial with the aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of post-operative management after a modified Lapidus arthrodesis with/without an Akin or a Weil/Hohmann surgery fusion with immediate complete weight-bearing compared with partial weight-bearing (10 - 15kg) for 6 weeks as a novel approach for rehabilitation after a foot surgery.
The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization therapy on delayed onset muscle soreness
The purpose of the study will be to evaluate the effect of a rehabilitation program on the improvement of patients with post-COVID-19 musculoskeletal symptoms, as well as to quantify the impact of telemedicine that evaluates the evolution of pain, functionality, and quality of life.
Surgical trearment of unstable posterior pelvic injuries can be performed with open reduction and internal fixation, closed reduction with percutaneous sacroiliac fixation. Biomechanically, no significant difference was found between the two methods in the literature. The aim of our study is to compare the radiological and clinical functional results of these methods.
The general purpose of this study is characterization of tissue-resident cells derived from different musculoskeletal and/or associated connective tissues (such as cartilage, synovial membrane, synovial fluid, bone, adipose tissue and tendons), in order to identify new strategies for the treatment of degenerative and inflammatory musculoskeletal disorders. Cells isolated from different tissue sources will be compared with each other by phenotypic and functional characterization, following culture and treatment with inflammatory elements, drugs and orthobiologics. Moreover, with the aim to assess predictive markers of therapeutic success, a correlation study of the content and properties of the cells isolated from different types of tissue with the clinical profile of the enrolled patients will be conducted.
The choice of autograft for ACL reconstruction continues to be debated. To date, there has only be one completed randomized controlled trial with quad tendon to BTB and the tendon included a bone plug. There has been no study to date comparing an all soft tissue quad tendon to patellar tendon in a randomized controlled trial for ACL reconstruction.
Comparing percutaneous needle fasciotomy +/- corticosteroid injection for Dupuytren's contracture affecting metacarpophalangeal joints. A clinician-initiated, multicenter, randomized controlled trial.
Cone Beam CT (CBCT) of the knee is gaining interest, especially regarding patients suffering from patellofemoral instability. With this study we wish to investigate the day-to-day, test-retest reliability of weight bearing (WB) and non-weight bearing (NWB) CBCT of the knee in healthy participants and patients suffering from trochlear dysplasia. The participants and patients will be scanned in the following positions: 0° WB, 0° NWB, 20° WB, 20° NWB on two separate days. The trochlear dysplasia patients will furthermore be scanned 6 months postoperatively. The aim is to develop af protocol on how to both position patients during weight bearing scannings as well as a protocol on how to prepare the cross sectional images before measurements.
The objective of this study is to verify which is the most effective type of rehabilitation treatment (rehabilitation based on core strengthening vs pilates) in patients suffering from low back pain. The secondary objective is to verify whether the use of Kinesio Tape (KT) associated with rehabilitation treatment can have greater effects in the motor and functional recovery of patients suffering from Low Back Pain than traditional rehabilitation.
