Filter by:This study will test a protocol to implement simultaneous physiotherapy and orthopedic surgeon interdisciplinary care for patients undergoing knee replacement surgery. These interdisciplinary sessions will help tailor personalized goals, involving the patient as a key member of the team.
This study investigated the effect of St. John's Wort oil on pain intensity and physical functions in people with knee osteoarthritis. This study adopted a randomized, placebo-controlled, and qualitative mixed design. The sample consisted of 60 patients randomized into intervention (n=30) and placebo control (n=30) groups. The experimental group participants were treated with St. John's Wort oil three times a week for three weeks, while the placebo control group participants were treated with olive oil three times a week for three weeks. Quantitative data were collected using a patient identification form, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews. .
Single arm clinical investigation, post-market confirmatory interventional to assess performance, safety and tolerability of "CR500 SINGLE-DOSE GEL" medical device in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of a single autologous, intra-articular injection of MFat versus corticosteroid injection for the treatment of pain and function associated with K/L grade 2/3 knee Osteoarthritis. Participants will receive an injection of MFat or a corticosteroid.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, and is characterized by joint pain and stiffness leading to functional decline and relevant loss in quality of life. The management of knee OA is demanded to several specialists, including general practitioners, rheumatologists, orthopedics and finally geriatricians. However, the exact role of geriatricians in the management of knee OA was poorly studied, whilst the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is widely used for preventing negative consequences in older people.
The purpose of the study is to compare the short-term effectiveness of manual therapy with neuromuscular training and conventional physical therapy with neuromuscular training in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test low-intensity continuous ultrasound stimulator(LICUS) for patients suffering from knee arthritis. it aims to evaluate the pain relief effect of LICUS. 35 participants were recruited, treated by LICUS on the knee joint for 5 minutes, 3 times a day for 4 weeks. This study has single group and is for a before and after comparison of clinical treatment.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the relationships between the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) height of the foot and clinical and radiological characteristics of knee osteoarthritis in adult patients 50 aged and over. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there any relationship between knee pain and disability in knee osteoarthritis and MLA height? - Is there any relationship between the radiologic severity of knee osteoarthritis and MLA height? - Is there any relationship between knee joint alignment in knee osteoarthritis and MLA height?
Physical activity like walking is one important way to reduce pain and improve wellbeing for older adults with knee and hip arthritis, but most older adults and particularly those who identify as African American struggle to walk regularly. Many African Americans with arthritis have worse outcomes (like worse pain, worse overall health) than other racial and ethnic groups for many reasons including racist policies and ideas that make getting good health care more difficult. It is therefore most important to identify ways to help older adults who identify as African American improve their arthritis pain and improve their daily steps. The current study is designed to learn about older African American's preferences for a brief behavioral intervention to increase daily steps and reduce pain, and to learn about the barriers (things that make walking harder) and facilitators (things that make walking easier) for walking that they experience. Interviews with both patients and healthcare providers will provide important information that will be used to adapt an existing behavioral intervention designed to help patients increase their daily steps and reduce their arthritis pain. The final adapted intervention will be tested in a small clinical trial with older adults who identify as African American to see if it can reduce pain and increase walking over time.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to analyze the stability of a cementless Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) over time and compare it to a well-documented implant in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The main aim is to answer if there is a difference in stability over time as a measure of long time survivorship in these 2 implants. 50 participants will be randomly allocated to receive either the Triathlon Tritanium (Stryker) or the Global Medacta Knee Sphere (GMK Sphere, Medacta) 3D printed cementless TKAs.
