Filter by:The aim of the study is to compare the 6 months clinical outcome of the treatment with a single injection of Homologous PRP versus single injection of placebo (saline solution) in the infiltrative treatment of knee osteoarthritis in over 65 years old patients. The evaluation will be performed through clinical, subjective and objective assessments.
The clinical study with UMC119-06-05 is designed to investigate the safety in patients with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This will be a dose escalation, open label, single-center study in adult with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis. UMC119-06-05 is ex vivo cultured human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells product which is intended for treatment of knee osteoarthritis.
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most common health problems around the world. According to this, several interventions have been used to treat this group of patients including pharmacological and non-pharmacological management such as weight reduction, behavior modification, and physical therapy. Recently, high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) has been used to treat patients with KOA. The results of previous studies showed that HILT could help to reduce pain as well as improved function in patients with mild to moderate KOA. However, there were still no standardized guidelines for HILT treatment in KOA. Also, no previous studies evaluated the efficacy of HILT in patients with severe KOA. The present study, therefore, recruited not only mild to a moderate degree but also severe degree. The study aim was to determine the efficacy of HILT in terms of pain relief in patients with mild, moderate, and severe KOA. The hypothesis was HILT would effectively reduce pain in patients with KOA compared to sham laser plus conservative treatment.
To evaluate the efficiencies of local corticosteroid injections and local anesthetics in patients with concomitant pes anserine bursitis and osteoarthritis.
This is a Phase I/II Randomized Double-Blinded Standard of Care (Corticosteroid) vs. Sterile Amniotic Fluid for Osteoarthritis
This is a double-blinded, two-arm, phase II study to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability of DFV890 in participants with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. The study includes a screening period, a treatment period and a follow-up period. At most, the study duration is 21 weeks.
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a single IA injection of various RTX doses, Zilretta or placebo for the treatment of pain due to moderate to severe osteoarthritis knee pain..
This study will assess skin irritation and sensitization for HP-5000 patch in healthy subjects.
: Falls are the primary cause of injury and a leading cause of disability and mortality among older adults. Risk factors for falling are common among older adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA) - a highly prevalent condition. Physical exercise is consistently the most efficacious intervention for preventing falls in older adults. However, access to these programs is severely limited in rural settings. Considering that rural communities have a higher disease burden and higher proportion of older adults than non-rural areas, there is a critical need to (1) adapt evidence-based exercise programs for remote delivery to increase access for rural older adults and (2) develop pathways to implement exercise programs in rural health care systems that consistently reach and engage patients with knee OA. Accordingly, the proposed project aims to refine a protocol for remote delivery of Enhance Fitness (EF). EF is an evidence-based, group exercise program involving strength, endurance, and balance training that is recommended for falls prevention and OA management
Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common conditions causing disability and limitation in the elderly population, with 13% of women and 10% of men over the age of 60 suffering from symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. Pain and other symptoms of OA significantly affect the quality of life, manifesting itself in pain, decreased range of motion, functional limitation and change in gait patterns. Total Knee Replacement Surgery (TKR) is the most common solution for patients with advanced cartilage erosion and is considered a successful surgery with high satisfaction rates (about 80%). The surgery becomes necessary when pain limits the daily functioning and impairs the quality of life and after the failure of conservative treatment. Still, patients undergoing TKR suffer in the first period after surgery from pain, decreased balance and proprioceptive impairment. Despite the improvement in pain and function, the rates of falls after surgery do not change drastically and remain high. About a third of older adults fall each year, leading to fractures, functional decline and in some cases death. Walking is a complex task, and with advancing age walking becomes less automatic and requires additional attention. Among adults, it is known that an increased risk of falls is associated with reduced ability to perform complex walking tasks, such as walking while talking or crossing obstacles. After TKR, most falls occur while walking due to slipping / tripping. In addition, proprioceptive impairment, pain and poor balance are associated with an increased risk of falling after TKR. The mechanism underlying these effects may be increased allocation of cognitive resources to walking. Thus, this study will examine the ability of people before and after TKR to perform complex walking tasks, in order to examine the change in attention allocation to walking following surgery. It is hypothesized that after surgery, the ability to walk while performing an additional task will be lower than prior to surgery.
