Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to record information from clinical and radiographic examinations and patient assessment questionnaires before surgery and at suitable postoperative intervals to assess the functioning and symptomology of each knee following surgery. In addition, any adverse events or complications are to be recorded, and any device failures or early revisions are to be recorded and reported directly to the Sponsor. The data are to be used in an evaluation of the performance of the P.F.C. Sigma knee implants over a minimum of 5 years.
The main objective of this study is to determine if the P.F.C. Sigma RP-F Knee delivers a greater post-operative range of motion (ROM) compared with the P.F.C. Sigma RP Knee in primary TKA. The secondary objectives of this investigation are to evaluate the clinical and patient outcomes and survivorship associated with the DePuy P.F.C. Sigma RP-F and RP Posterior Stabilised (PS) Knee over 5 years.
The purpose of this phase III study is to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Oral Salmon Calcitonin in the Treatment of Patients with Osteoarthritis of the Knee
ThermoProfen is a transdermal ketoprofen patch that is integrated with a long-lasting CHADD (Controlled Heat-Assisted Drug Delivery) unit for the treatment of chronic pain associated with osteoarthritis. This study will evaluate the safety of long-term administration of ThermoProfen™ for the pain associated with osteoarthritis of the knee in adults. The study will be conducted in patients with pain associated with osteoarthritis and who have completed a previous efficacy study of ThermoProfen.
Objective: To study the feasibility and validity of a two-step telephone screening procedure for symptomatic knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA) in the general population. Method: The screening questionnaire was based on signs and symptoms, previous diagnosis of OA, and validated OA criteria. A random sample of telephone numbers was obtained and, at each number, one individual aged 40 to 75 years was included. A physical examination and knee or hip radiographs were offered when the screen was positive. A sample of individuals with negative screens was also examined. The diagnosis of hip/knee OA was based on either American College of Rheumatology criteria for signs and symptoms and Kellgren-Lawrence radiographic stage 2 or greater. Prevalence rates were estimated with correction for the performance of the screening procedure.
CRx-102 is a synergistic combination drug candidate containing the cardiovascular drug dipyridamole and a very low dose of the glucocorticoid prednisolone. CRx-102 is believed to work through a novel mechanism of action in which dipyridamole selectively amplifies the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities of the glucocorticoid without replicating the dose-dependent adverse effects. CRx-102 has been associated with clinical benefit in proof of concept studies in subjects with hand OA and RA. This is the first study to explore the efficacy of CRx-102 in knee OA. It is considered a dose-finding study and will also compare the potential benefits of CRx-102 treatment to both prednisolone administered alone and to placebo in this indication.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of lacosamide (LCM) 400mg/day in treating the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee.
The Purpose of this trial is to evaluate the use of a cross-over trial design in an osteoarthritis population. We will determine the inter- and intra-subject variability in osteoarthritis (OA) endpoints and evaluate if efficacy can be detected by measuring OA endpoints following treatment with 2 different types of analgesics in a crossover study of this design.
- To assess the efficacy of medial-wedge insole in valgus knee osteoarthritis (OA). - We hypothesized that medial-wedged insoles are biomechanically effective and should reduce lateral compartment loading in persons with valgus knee osteoarthritis with a consequent symptomatic improvement.
In order to assess the effectiveness of biomagnetic therapy (PST) in the treatment of gonarthrosis, we conducted a randomized, double blind controlled clinical trial comparing one group of patients treated with PST and a second group of patients treated with conventional physical therapy.
