Filter by:The purpose of the retrospective cohort study is 1) to determine preoperative risk factors for revision af patellofemoral arthroplasty, and 2) to provide a detailed description of indications for revision after patellofemoral arthroplasty. All patients operated with patellofemoral arthroplasty in Denmark from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2015, will be included in the cohort.
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthritis (OA) affects articulating tissues secondary to inflammation resulting in intracapsular pain. This prospective, double-blind randomized clinical trial will evaluate the relative efficacy of TMJ arthrocentesis with a supplementation of platelet-rich growth factors (PRGF) compared to TMJ arthrocentesis with a steroid supplementation (a known effective therapy) for patients with TMJ OA.
The purpose of this post-market research study is to gather clinical and radiographic (X-ray) information about total knee replacement surgeries completed with the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution and with standard manual instrumentation. The VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution helps the surgeon to plan bone cuts and then accurately achieve the planned cuts during the total knee replacement surgery. The study aims to compare how well the VELYS Robotic-Assisted system enables the surgeon to position the implants exactly as planned compared to manual instrumentation.
RCT comparing UC and PS TKA
For the first time in Russia, it is planned to introduce and study primary knee arthroplasty using an active robotic system. The aim is to increase the efficiency of primary total knee arthroplasty using an active robotic surgical system. Traditional endoprosthetics of the knee joint (TKA) has now reached its maximum manufacturability and efficiency, but the accuracy of the performance depends on the skill and experience of the surgeon, as well as the efficiency of the cutting instrument (oscillator saw) when performing bone resection, the condition of the instrument and on the density of bone tissue fabric, which is highly variable. Modern RSS used in orthopedics include a robotic arm, robotic cutting devices with a computer navigation system, which are in active, semi-automatic or passive control mode. The main advantage of robotic systems is accurate preliminary planning using 3D modeling, use individual implant selection and virtual positioning.The active robotic surgical system TSolution-One allows participants to level the error in the positioning of the implant. The active robotic surgical system (ARSS) allows to correctly install the implant, which affects its service life, reduces the risks of postoperative complications, quickly returns to the usual way of life and forgets about the technical negative sensations and limitations that existed before the operation.It is planned to conduct an open-label retrospective and prospective clinical study in parallel observations.The study is planned to include 300 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joint stage 3-4 (according to Kellgren-Lawrence). Investigators took three groups of patients, 100 patients each, and offered different options for total knee arthroplasty techniques.According to the research:-A clinical active robotic system for primary total knee arthroplasty will be introduced in Russia-There will be recommended indications and contraindications for this system in patients with gonarthrosis-The methodology of preoperative planning will be improved-The results of primary knee arthroplasty with an active robotic system will be evaluated in comparison with standard techniques and computer navigation-The methodology developed and improved in the dissertation will be introduced into the work of the clinical departments of traumatology, orthopedics and disaster surgery, studying the learning curve.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive and irreversible degenerative joint disease characterized by marginal bone hypertrophy, erosion, and subchondral sclerosis in the articular cartilage.It has been determined that being of advanced age and joint involvement due to osteoarthritis are a risk factor for addiction in activities and this increases the individual's self-care ability and dependency in daily living activities.Older individuals with knee osteoarthritis may be at risk of falling.This study was planned to examine the relationship between activity-specific balance confidence and fear of falling, autonomy and social participation in individuals with knee osteoarthritis over 65 years of age.
Chronic conditions such as knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart failure (HF), coronary heart disease (CHD), hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and depression are among the leading causes of global disability and affect hundreds of millions of people around the world. In recent years, multimorbidity, commonly defined as the co-occurrence of at least two chronic conditions, has also gained interest due to its substantial impact on the person and society. Despite the significant burden of multimorbidity, little is known about how to treat this effectively. A 2016 Cochrane systematic review found that interventions targeting populations with specific combinations of conditions and addressing specific problems such as functional difficulties may be more effective. Exercise therapy is a treatment addressing functional limitations that is a safe and effective treatment of at least 26 chronic conditions, including OA, HF, CHD, hypertension, T2DM, COPD and depression. Furthermore, self-management support is increasingly recognized as an essential component of interventions to improve outcomes in patients living with multimorbidity and to support the long-term adherence to exercise. A new systematic review found that exercise seems effective in people with multimorbidity (the conditions included in the current study), however highlighting the need for further high-quality RCTs. The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate the effects of a personalized exercise therapy and self-management support program in addition to usual care on self-reported, objectively measured and physiological outcomes in people with multimorbidity (i.e. at least two of the following conditions: OA (knee or hip), heart condition (HF or CHD), hypertension, T2DM, COPD and depression). The primary endpoint is 12 months, but 4- and 6-month follow-ups are included as well and a 12-month health economic evaluation of the program will be conducted. Prior to the RCT, a feasibility trial of 20 people with multimorbidity, all undergoing the personalized exercise therapy and self-management support program, will be conducted using the same methods as in the RCT, but primarily focusing on feasibility outcomes (recruitment, retention, adherence to treatment, burden of outcomes, improvements in outcomes, adverse events). This will start recruitment in Feb 2021 and end August 2021. The MOBILIZE project has received funding from several foundations, including the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (grant agreement No 801790).
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ASA compared to placebo in the management of osteoarthritis (OA) symptoms of the knee.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive disease resulting from the degradation of synovial joint articular cartilage over time. The hallmark symptom is diffuse aching and progressive pain made worse with activity. Loss of range of motion and compromised function inevitably follow. This degenerative disease can affect the shoulder joint. When symptoms become refractory to conservative treatment such as anti-inflammatory medication, steroid injections, activity modification or physical therapy; surgery (total or reverse shoulder arthroplasty) may be considered. Idiopathic shoulder OA is typically characterized by posterior subluxation of the humeral head upon the glenoid and posterior bone loss. An imbalance in the application of forces applied to the proximal humerus by the posterior and anterior rotator cuff muscles has been postulated to be the leading cause of idiopathic shoulder OA. However, there is only preliminary evidence to support this theory and the etiology of this pattern of deformity is unknown. The theory the posterior humeral head subluxation is a precursor to OA is only supported by very low-level evidence and no longitudinal studies have been conducted. As a result, the cause and natural history of shoulder OA remains unknown. Research into this area is urgently needed to generate knowledge that will inform future treatments aimed at modifying and slowing the progression of shoulder OA and to reduce the need for shoulder replacement therapy. The aim of this project is to develop an understanding of the pathophysiology of shoulder OA.
