Filter by:This study is a 3-arm, double-blind, randomized trial comparing the clinical outcomes of Zilretta, Synvisc One, and Monovisc for knee OA.
The purpose of this trial is to determine if radiofrequency ablation plus steroid perineural injections at the knee or hip provide longer pain relief and better function to patients than the current standard of care, perineural steroid injections alone. This pilot study is a prospective two arm randomized trail, all participants will be recruited from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW) outpatient orthopedic clinic. 40 participants (20 hip and 20 knee OA) will be enrolled into the standard of care arm (treated with steroid injections alone) and 40 participants (20 hip and 20 knee OA) will be enrolled into the investigational arm (treatment with a combination of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) plus steroid injections) for a total of 80 enrolled participants. All subjects will complete a function and pain assessment at the time of injection and three additional time points: 2 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months post injection. This study will use the same knee function questionnaire and frequency currently used in clinic per standard of care. In addition, all participant's surgical history and prior injection history will be reviewed via the Electronic Medical Record (EMR).
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease. It is characterized by a progressive destruction of all the components of the joint, especially the cartilage. This leads to pain, loss of mobility and can be a major handicap for some patients. Gonarthrosis, or osteoarthritis of the knee, affects 30% of people between the ages of 65 and 75 and is one of the most disabling conditions. In the final stage, the only therapeutic option to relieve patients is to replace the joint with a total knee prosthesis. Thanks to the contribution of an evaluation technique based on inertial sensors (X-SENS device), our objective is to better evaluate and understand the movement deficit in knee OA subjects. The hypothesis is that, thanks to the contribution of a technique based on inertial sensors (X-SENS), the investigators can better evaluate the movement deficit of knee OA subjects. The goal is to propose specific, rapid telekinetic biomarkers, allowing a better evaluation of functional improvements following therapeutic interventions, such as a total knee replacement.
Total knee replacement (TKR) is considered the most effective and safe method of radical treatment of late stages of knee osteoarthritis. A well-known problem of TKR is a severe postoperative pain syndrome, which is observed in more than 50% of patients. Femoral nerve block (FNB) is the "gold standard" for continuous postoperative analgesia after total knee replacement, as it is effective in reducing the frequency of use of opioid analgetics and reduce the duration of hospitalization. At the same time, the negative effect of this method is the motor blockade of the quadriceps femoris muscle which leads to functional impairment and is associated with an increased risk of falling. Adductor canal block (ACB) provides adequate analgesia comparable to femoral nerve block. Moreover, ACB doesn't affect the motor function of the quadriceps femoris muscle. The possibility of enhanced recovery after total knee replacement is the reason to compare single-shot adductor canal block and continuous femoral nerve block.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease, affecting more than 25% of the population . Knee OA is an insidious disease related to structural changes in the joint over many years. Progressive articular damage results in a loss of the extracellular matrix of cartilage in addition to changes in subchondral bone. Duloxetine, a selective serotonin, and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, it seems to be effective in treating neuropathic and chronic pain conditions.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease of great morbidity in which therapies are typically palliative and only alleviate pain Mesenchymal stem cells ,adipose derived stromal cell are possible new chondroprotective regenerative treatment modalities. Clinical Effectiveness after administration of adipose derived stromal cells along with platelet rich plasma was investigated in 140 patients having moderate to severe knee (stage 3 and 4) Patients were evaluated and followed up for 2 year by subjective WOMAC score,six minute walking distance ,need of rescue medication Radiographic and MRI evaluation of joint space and cartilage thickness respectively
To investigate effects of repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (PMS) on pain reduction in knee osteoarthritis
The investigators have previously identified knee osteoarthritis patients with the combination of depression and an unhealthy weight may be an increased risk of more rapid joint degeneration and worsening pain. The GetHealthy-OA program combines a mind-body program with the oral supplement fisetin to potentially reduce the risk for this population by treating psychosocial, mechanical, and inflammatory mechanisms of knee osteoarthritis. This randomized clinical trial will compare the GetHealthy-OA program to minimally-enhanced usual care plus an oral placebo.
The main aim and scope is making measurement and comparison about the femoral component posterior offset under different femoral component implanting flexion angle in cruciate retaining total knee arthroplasty. The results may identify the influence of the flexion component implanting flexion angle on the femoral component posterior offset.
A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Collavant n2 in individuals with osteoarthritis of the knee.
