Filter by:This study is a prospective Phase 2, drug controlled, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Pure Green sublingual tablets for the treatment of pain associated with osteoarthritis of the knee.
The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effects of Clinical Pilates Exercise Training and Combined Exercise Training on balance and functional status in individuals with knee Osteoarthritis (OA).
This study compares and evaluates differences in movement analysis, patient-reported outcome and radiological assesment between patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty with use of either Zimmer Biomet NexGen and Zimmer Biomet PERSONA
The purpose of this study is to evaluate performance of two modern total knee arthroplasty designs using patient reported outcomes and force exhibited during various activities of daily living.
The investigators will be comparing the efficacy of two different techniques for performing an adductor canal block to the saphenous nerve as a part of the multimodal pain control regimen for total knee arthroplasty. The investigators will be comparing a "low adductor canal block" in which the surgeon administers local anesthetic to the distal aspect of the nerve from the operative site to a "high adductor canal block" in which the anesthesiologist administers the local anesthetic more proximally along the thigh using ultrasound guidance. The investigators will power the study for non-inferiority to compare the newer "low" block to the more commonly performed and more widely studied "high" block.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), interferential currents (IFCs) and sham devices in improving central sensitization (CS) findings, including pressure pain thresholds, pain catastrophizing, depression, and kinesiophobia in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
This study investigates the feasibility of a gait-retraining program for older adults with knee osteoarthritis. The study will enroll 40 participants, with 20 receiving a gait retraining intervention and 20 receiving a graded walking program without gait retraining.
This will be prospective study of patients with knee effusion associated with degenerative osteoarthritis or symptomatic primary total knee arthroplasty that undergo therapeutic joint arthrocentesis. The diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis will be based on knee radiographs (including AP, Rosenburg view, lateral and Merchant views) read and interpreted by one of our clinical providers (PA, Fellow or Surgeon). Patients with at least Grade II Kellgren and Lawrence changes or higher will be included in the osteoarthritis group. Patients in the arthroplasty group must have had a primary total knee arthroplasty without infection (as determined by knee aspirate) to be included. Patients will be clinically evaluated at the time of their visit for presence of a knee effusion using a stroke test and graded on a 5-point scale (zero, trace, 1+, 2+, or 3+) which has shown good interrater reliability. Patients with a mild to severe effusion (1+ to 3+) will considered for the study. Patients having significant pain associated with their effusion will be offered a therapeutic arthrocentesis as part of their treatment plan discussion. This is a pre-post test design in which outcome measures will be collected immediately pre-arthrocentesis and immediately post arthrocentesis. Additionally, there will be an optional 7-10 follow up visit where outcomes measures will be collected again, should the participant choose to return to this visit.
This study is designed to determine the effect of a cycling training program which modulates frontal and sagittal plane knee joint loading with graded increases of Q-Factor and cycling workrate in persons with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis.
It is very important to understand joint and body kinematics and muscles activity in clinical settings, which is relevant to identify issues related to the spine, the upper and lower limbs due to injury. In this study, the investigators will use an innovative platform, Showmotion to establish baseline of shoulder, hip, knee and spine kinematics and muscles activity from 60 healthy volunteers.
