Filter by:The aim of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness between two BDDE-crosslinked hyaluronate, HYAJOINT Plus and Durolane, for the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis Pain.
In prosthetic knee surgery, there is a certain number of patients with post-operative nocturnal pain. The purpose of our study is to determine the impact of this problem and to better understand its risk factors.
Total knee replacement (TKR) is a bony and soft-tissue procedure and much attention has been given to the alignment of the components, which is relatively easy to quantify. Recently, substantial healthcare resources have been devoted to the development and use of computer navigation and patient-specific instrumentation systems that achieve neutral mechanical alignment. However the conventional assumption that mechanically aligned TKR leads to the best implant survival has been brought into doubt. Although mechanically aligned TKR improves function, 20 % of patients remain dissatisfied according to reports from Canada, England and Wales. In an attempt to improve patient satisfaction recent developments have included the individualization of component alignment with the goal of achieving pre-arthritic alignment through restoration of the axes of rotation, a technique called kinematic alignment (KA). The outcomes of kinematic alignment have been assessed in case series but so far only one randomised controlled trial (RCT) [Digital Object Identifier (DOI)10.1302/0301-620X.96B7.32812 Published 1 July 2014] undertaken in the USA has compared the clinical results of kinematic alignment using patient-specific instruments with the traditional technique of mechanical alignment, demonstrating a substantial benefit in postoperative patient pain relief and function. Therefore, for direct comparison between kinematic aligned and mechanically aligned surgical techniques for total knee replacement, the investigators would like to undertake a pilot study prior to a larger RCT and recruit a cohort of 15 patients undergoing kinematical aligned TKR. The investigators will use the same device as was used in a previous mechanically aligned study undertaken at our hospital (REC ref: 12/NE/0293 Attune, DePuy, Warsaw IN, in 35 patients based on the same eligibility criteria who will act as controls), which will allow the opportunity to estimate the standard deviation in the control arm in preparation for the larger RCT.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous Adipose Tissue derived Mesenchymal stem cells (JOINTSTEM®) in patient with severe Knee Osteoarthritis.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of Ampion for the treatment of pain and function in patients with severe osteoarthritis of the knee.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of an mHealth sedentary reduction program over a 6-month period of time in adults with past or present knee symptoms, injuries, or surgeries.
A Quality Study in the use of Post-Anaesthesia Care Unit(PACU) in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty, and the ability to bypass this unit. The investigators wish to investigate the amount of patients who is required to be secondary admitted to the PACU, after primary discharge from the operating room to the surgical ward, thereby bypassing the PACU.
The present prospective trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy of CyMedica Orthopedics e-vive™ system, a multifunctional electrotherapy device providing neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) for reducing pain and accelerating functional recovery in patients with knee osteoarthritis. This post-market trial will involve patients who have been diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis, Kelgren-Lawrence Grades II, III, and IV. It is hypothesized that the use of the CyMedica e-vive NMES can reduce pain, improve knee function, and improve quality of life.
The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of autologous very small embryonic-like stem cells(VSELs) to knee osteoarthritis.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of obesity on knee degenerative arthritis on body composition after dietary control and elastic resistance exercise; and whether persistent exercise habits and dietary control can relieve pain and strengthen muscle strength. Improve the quality of life and the decline of other risk factors.
