Filter by:This is a prospective, single-center, single-blinded, randomized, case-control study. The study is conducted by a single investigator at an orthopedic surgery institute, with a minimum 6 week post operative follow-up period of TKA patients who receive Exparel compared with the surgeon's standard method (detailed below) for pain management intraoperatively.
This is a biomedical study on a medical device. 120 patients will participate in this study and will be split into 2 groups: - 60 patients in the "usual care" group: these patients will receive the usual care proposed by their doctor for 12 months. - 60 patients in the "ODRA" group: these patients will wear the ODRA brace for 12 months in addition to their usual care. They will be instructed to wear the brace for at least 6 hours per day, 5 days per week and to take it off during rest periods when lying down. The distribution of patients in the groups will be randomized. For this study, patients will be followed for 12 months, spread over 3 visits: inclusion visit, follow-up visit at 6 months and 12 months.
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of FX006 and Triamcinolone Acetonide Injectable Suspension, United States Pharmacopeia (USP) (referred to as TCA IR in the protocol) on blood glucose (BG) in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).
Introduction: The increase in intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) can contribute to muscle weakness and consequently on progression of knee OA. The prescription of exercise protocols has been used as a treatment strategy to minimize some of the bouts. Circuit training (CT) involves the combination of strength training and aerobic in the same session and has shown benefits in body composition and physical function. But the literature is unclear with respect to the influences of CT in the concentration of IMAT in the population with knee OA. Objective: To investigate the influence of a 14-week CT protocol in body composition and thigh IMAT concentration as well as cartilage degradation indicators and systemic inflammation and its impact on quality of life in patients with knee OA.
To compare the effects of perioperative intravenous Dexamethasone with a placebo on the severity of persistent postsurgical pain after total knee arthroplasty.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of YH23537 versus celebrex in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a growing burden in an aging society. There are few proven treatments and hence disability contributes to poor quality of life and direct/indirect costs to society. OA symptoms include both increased pain and reduced mobility. Strength training and aerobic exercise has been shown to improve symptoms in OA; however, the impact of targeted mobility and balance training in patients with osteoarthritis is unclear. The investigators propose a novel, low-impact exercise modality that improves balance and gait. The results of this research project should improve patient options and improve knowledge in OA management.
There are over 8.75 million people in the United Kingdom with osteoarthritis in their knees. The effect of this condition can be debilitating. Symptoms are due to wear and tear of the knee joint. Some people can suffer with knee pain and stiffness. This study will look at whether walking improves the symptoms of knee osteoarthritis. Investigators will recruit anyone with knee pain over the age of 45 years in Nottingham. Participants will undergo a full assessment by a qualified Doctor. After assessment, Participants meeting the eligibility criteria will be invited to join the study. Participants will be randomly allocated into 2 groups. One group will receive standard health and exercise advice. The other group will be allocated a walking activity. This group will undertake 6,000 walking steps each day. Participants will provide pedometers to monitor this walking activity. The effect of walking will be compared using questionnaires. These will look at pain levels, quality of life and physical activity. The participants will complete these questionnaires before the study, at the 6 week midpoint and at the end of the 12 week intervention.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 24-week study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AXS-02 in subjects with knee osteoarthritis associated with bone marrow lesions.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease affecting millions of people around the world, for which there is unfortunately no cure. Among existing therapies, viscosupplementation, i.e., the injection of hyaluronic acid into the joint, has an established place in the symptomatic treatment of knee OA. The present Phase IIb/III aiming to assess the safety and efficacy of JTA-004 is organized in two phases. With results obtained in the first phase the best dose of JTA-004 is determined, and the efficacy of the selected dose will then be confirmed in the second phase.
