Filter by:Introduction: Knee osteoarthritis is a long-term rheumatic disease with a significant impact on the patient's quality of life and the socio-economic development of societies. The usual treatment consists of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs as a palliative measure. The decrease in the beneficial effect and the appearance of serious long-term adverse effects make it necessary to look for other therapeutic procedures. Acupuncture is a non-pharmacological treatment that could reduce pain and improve functionality in this condition, however current scientific evidence is limited. A previous study has observed a clinical improvement in the combination of sensitized local and peripheral points in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis but studies with a larger sample are needed to confirm these results. Objective: Assess the effectiveness of acupuncture using a combination of local and peripheral sensitized points in the treatment of active knee osteoarthritis. Methods: A randomized clinical trial will be performed in a hospital centre with 2 groups. The control group will standard treatment plus transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, while the intervention group will receive acupuncture in addition to standard care. Study outcomes will be pain, quality of life, function, exercise adherence, drug intake, adverse effects, and body mass index. There will be a 12-month post-intervention follow-up.
Comparison of the early clinical and radiological results and patient satisfaction of the mobile and fixed insert unicondylar knee prostheses routinely used in the clinic.
The purpose of this study was to find the most effective treatment out of both techniques; Dry needling and Kinesio Taping for treating knee osteoarthritis (OA) in terms of pain, strength, and balance
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term results of various anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction techniques. This assessment is necessary for the current context of anterior cruciate ligament research as several techniques and grafts are used in clinical practice, however, the various studies existing in the literature focus mainly only on the direct comparison of two techniques and usually with short-to-medium term follow-up. Since gonarthrosis is one of the most debated consequences of cruciate ligament reconstruction, a comparison of different long-term procedures would be desirable to have a clearer picture of the risks and benefits associated with different types of intervention.
Phase III, multicenter, randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical trial comparing treatment with allogeneic mesenchymal cells versus autologous mesenchymal cells and versus active control with hyaluronic acid in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Prior to surgical intervention, the conservative treatment of knee osteoarthritis involves analgesia and intra-articular injections and currently only steroid injections are available as part of NHS treatment. They have short-term benefit only (<6months) and potentially have detrimental effects on residual cartilage. Arthrosamid is a hydrogel consisting of 97.5% sterile water and 2.5% cross-linked polyacrylamide. It's been shown to be safe and effective, with benefits lasting beyond 2 years in the majority. However, currently it is unclear via what biological pathways it reduces joint inflammation and pain. This study will investigate the effects of Arthrosamid clinically and biologically.
This is a randomized controlled trial, 44 participants selected based on inclusion criteria from physical therapy department of Surriya Azeem Surgical Hospital, Pattoki. Participants randomly recruited into two groups, 22 in deep stripping group receiving deep stripping with conventional physical therapy and 22 in kneading group receiving kneading with conventional physical therapy. Pain, range of motion and functional mobility are the primary outcomes measured by numeric pain rating scale, universal goniometer and lower extremity functional scale. Data collected at the baseline, at the 6th session, and the 12th session.
The aim of the study is to evaluate safety, tolerability and clinical efficacy of a newly developed MesoCellA-Ortho tissue-engineered advanced therapy medicinal product in adult patients suffering with osteoarthritis and additionally burdened with other civilisation diseases such as type 2 diabetes and/ or obesity. The active substance of MesoCellA-Ortho consists of in vitro expanded autologous human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem/ stromal cells (AT-MSCs) resuspended in carrier solution for intraarticular injections for individual patents.
The purpose of this study is to test safety and efficacy of study drug LY3526318 in for the treatment of knee pain due to with osteoarthritis (OA). This trial is part of the chronic pain master protocol H0P-MC-CPMP (NCT05986292) which is a protocol to accelerate the development of new treatments for chronic pain.
In this study, the investigators will be performing intra-articular platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections for patients experiencing pain related to osteoarthritis of the knee. The investigators will be following clinical outcomes, and how they relate to concentrations of the PRP samples as well as following opioid and emergency room utilization pre and post-injection.
