Filter by:This phase I and II double blinded randomized clinical controlled trial investigates the safety and efficacy of intraarticular knee injection with allogenic adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSC), in patients suffering from mild-moderate knee osteoarthritis compared to placebo injection with saline.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of retatrutide once-weekly in participants who have obesity or are overweight and have osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The study will lasts about 77 weeks.
A pre-market randomized, parallel group, single-blind, clinical study with a Medical Device, made of vegetal material, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of one knee injection of the investigational device versus active comparator (Jonexa). The study population will consist of 150 patients diagnosed with primary knee osteoarthrosis. At present, the study is monocentric competitive. Treatment period for each patient is 6 months.
To evaluate pain relief from corticosteroid injection with and without anesthetic as well as with variable volume of anesthetic. Pain relief will be measured using the VAS pain score at the time of the injection as well as several time points following the injection to capture pain relief longevity. The investigators intend to evaluate how well the patients tolerate corticosteroid mixtures without anesthetic as well as with different volumes of anesthetic. Primary measure will be the time from procedure when postoperative status is considered success (as measured by global perceived improvement score).
Knee osteoarthritis (gonarthrosis) is one of the most common types of osteoarthritis. It is a degenerative joint disorder characterized by pain, muscle weakness, and functional loss. It is more frequently observed in the medial compartment of the knee joint. Additionally, it can cause varus deformity by disrupting the alignment of the knee joint. There have been no studies comparing the effects of conservative treatment approaches such as virtual reality exercises, orthoses, and kinesio taping. Therefore, the aim of this current study is to compare the effectiveness of virtual reality exercises alone and in combination with orthotic approach and kinesio taping in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. The participants included in the study will be randomly divided into three groups. The first group will receive virtual reality exercises, the second group will receive virtual reality exercises along with valgus orthosis, and the third group will receive virtual reality exercises combined with kinesio taping treatment. The interventions will be applied three times a week for eight weeks. Evaluations will be repeated before and after the exercise therapy. The evaluations will include pain assessment using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), muscle strength measured by hand dynamometer, balance assessed by the Berg Balance Scale, proprioception measured by stabilizer and inclinometer, joint range of motion measured by goniometer, functional status evaluated by the WOMAC scale, lower extremity length measured by tape measure, walking speed assessed by the 10-Meter Walk Test (10 MWT), quality of life measured by the SF-36 questionnaire, kinesiophobia evaluated by the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, architectural features of the quadriceps femoris muscle assessed by ultrasound imaging, knee OA score measured by the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and medial compartment distance of the knee calculated and recorded using computer-aided analysis on anteroposterior radiographs.
Knee arthrosis has a high prevalence. Non-surgical treatment, such as exercise, is the first choice of treatment. However, most patients end up having a surgical procedure such as total knee arthroplasty. Following surgery with total knee replacement as much as 20% of patients report to not be satisfied with the results. It is noteworthy that this level of dissatisfaction has persisted over the last decades despite formidable progress in surgical methods and technology. Leg strength prior to surgery is associated with faster recovery post operatively, which may influence satisfaction. The investigators aim is to implement a period of strength training prior to surgery to evaluate if training prior to surgery may reduce the level of dissatisfaction post operatively.

to find out the Effectiveness Of Mobilization With Movement And Kinesotaping In The Female Patients Of Knee Osteoarthritis To Improve Pain And Functional Mobility
Exercise is considered the most effective, non-drug treatment for reducing pain and improving movement in patients with osteoarthritis. Diminished muscle strength is a common symptom associated with the onset of knee osteoarthritis. The evidence supports the benefit of exercise therapy, in reducing pain and improving function in subjects with knee OA, however research to date has been unable to quantify the disease-modifying effect of any form of exercise. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate how the use of a seated compact elliptical machine (Cubii JR1) exercise program in conjunction with a standard physical therapy regimen will impact the health of individuals with knee osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis, which can affect all joints in the body and includes synovial inflammation, cartilage degeneration, osteophyte formation and bone remodeling in its pathophysiology. Many approaches are used in its treatment, and the effectiveness of exercise in conservative treatment has been proven. Many exercise methods such as strengthening, balance, aquatherapy are applied, but there is no definite consensus on exercise prescribing.Programs that focus on restoring balance and proprioception are called "sensorimotor or neuromuscular trainings". Previous studies have shown that neuromuscular exercises reduce pain, improve function, improve balance, and cause positive biomechanical changes in knee osteoarthritis and meniscus injuries. Progressive Motor Imagery (AMI) is an approach in rehabilitation where the focus is on progressive brain exercise. It is an education that approaches patients with pain, activity limitation and functional loss with a holistic view within the framework of the biopsychosocial model. The aim of this study; to examine the effects of two current treatment programs (AMI, SM training) on symptoms, functionality, balance and proprioception parameters in osteoarthritis rehabilitation.
