Filter by:The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of vibration on factors related to the risks of post-traumatic knee osteoarthritis and secondary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in individuals who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery (ACLR). The main objectives are to compare the effects of Standard rehabilitation vs. rehabilitation that includes whole body vibration (WBV) or local muscle vibration (LMV) on: - Quadriceps muscle function - Gait biomechanics linked to post-traumatic knee osteoarthritis development - Patient self-report outcomes - MRI indicators of knee joint health and muscle quality - Landing biomechanics linked to secondary ACL injury risk - Evidence-based return-to-physical-activity criteria Participants will be assigned to 1 of 3 groups (standard rehabilitation, standard rehabilitation + WBV, or standard rehabilitation + LMV) and will complete assessments of quadriceps function, gait biomechanics, landing biomechanics, functional ability, patient-report outcomes, and MRI 1, 6, and 12 months after ACLR. Researchers will compare the groups to see if vibration embedded in ACLR rehabilitation improves joint health outcomes.
The goals of treating knee osteoarthritis (OA) is to improve or maintain quality of life, mobility and function, pain relief, and improve inflammation. The different treatment options for knee OA have been extensively studied and implemented, but the optimum treatment is still undecided. There is a belief that anti-inflammatory sleeve technology may be beneficial in treating knee OA. The purpose of this study is to determine if the Reparel™ knee sleeve results in superior mobility, functionality, and pain outcomes as compared to a placebo knee sleeve in managing knee OA.
This study aims to find out if preoperatively given dexmedetomidine is effective analgesic adjuvant for treating postoperative pain in patients undergoing elective total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Another aim is to determine if premedication with intranasal dexmedetomidine could provide sufficient sedation to alleviate anxiety during TKA.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and the safety of PK101 in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
This is a prospective, multicenter, observational study with a planned follow-up period of 10 years to confirm the safety and performance of the GEMINI SL Fixed Bearing PS knee prosthesis in longterm follow-up under routine conditions. Primary outcome of the study is the 10-year survival rate of the GEMINI SL Fixed Bearing PS knee prosthesis with revision for any reason as the endpoint.
This study will examine feasibility of implementing Good Life with Osteoarthritis in Denmark (GLA:D) program in West Virginians with osteoarthritis of the knee
Sponsor aimed to study hydroalcoholic extract of Andrographis paniculata (for its effect on OA disease progression in OA patients with moderate to severe knee OA. Hydroalcoholic extract of Andrographis paniculata (standardized for 50% bioactive andrographolides).Andrographis paniculata may have an effect on increasing the expression of collagen type II protein and also mitigate the migration of inflammatory cells or angiogenesis
Knee ostheoarthritis (KOA) is a common disabling and degenerative disease leading to painful joints, articular stiffness, and decreased function. The mechanism of the ozone of relieving the pain and improving the knee function is through inhibiting the inflammation reaction in the KOA directly. Actually, the ozone intra-articular injection had been used to relieve the pain caused by KOA. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of intra-articular injection of medical ozone given into the knee of the osteoarthritis patients, and to compare it with intra-articular steroid injection and to investigate the effectiveness of ozone and steroid the job to determine the superiority of the injections to each other.
The study will evaluate the performance, clinical benefits and safety of the Persona Revision Knee System in patients who have received primary or revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) treatment. This will be done using a multicenter, single-arm, consecutive series, retrospective cohort study with prospective follow-up.
Patients with degenerative joint disease can effectively be treated with a primary total knee replacement to reduce pain and improve function in their daily lives. Theoretically, achievement of normal knee motion using a medial pivot design in total knee replacements can be recreated in comparison to single radius designs, which could lead to an improvement in post-surgical outcomes and satisfaction with the procedure. The aim of this study is to compare two types of implant designs (medial pivot and single radius) in a total knee replacement using clinical outcomes, patient reported outcomes, and overall function assessed by a specialized gait laboratory.
