Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of evaluating SAMe tolerability, analgesic benefits, and daily functional improvement in patients with osteoarthritis of the hands compared to placebo. The secondary objective of this study is to generate preliminary data on discomfort, function, quality of life in patients with osteoarthritis of the hands when taking SAMe compared to placebo.
A Multi-center, Double-blinded, Randomized, Active-controlled, Parallel Design, phase 3 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of YYC301 in Patients with Osteoarthritis of the Knee Joint
The aim of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of geniculate artery embolization (GAE) as pain treatment in patients with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease affecting joint cartilage and its surrounding tissue. It is the leading cause of disability in the elderly. Photobiomodulation (PBM), has been used widely for alleviation of pain, reduction of inflammation, and acceleration of wound healing, and particularly to treat knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The purpose of the current study is to determine if B-Cure laser treatments, applied at home, by the patient or personal caregiver in a real-life situation, can reduce pain and improve functionality in patients with KOA.
The primary objective is to establish the mean superior cup migration of the PINNACLE® Dual Mobility Construct using model-based RSA over the first two years post-implantation. The primary endpoint is the mean vertical subsidence (Y translation, also known as superior cup migration) at 2 years as measured with RSA. Additionally, the data from this study will be compared to historical PINNACLE® data obtained in study DSJ_2018_02.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of the HIT Reverse Hip Replacement System is safe and effective in patients undergoing total hip replacement. We will determine whether it is safe and effective by comparing it to the control devices.
Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is a musculoskeletal disorder and is associated with significant implications related to public health and socioeconomic factors resulting in leave from work. Currently, there are several types of conservative treatment for this pathology, such as medications and mainly muscle strengthening, recommended by international guidelines. It can be associated with neuromuscular electrostimulation (NMES) as with the Aussie Current, for example, which aims to increase strength and function earlier. Objective: To determine whether the effectiveness of adding NMES to the Aussie Current in patients with knee OA who receive treatment based on the principles of conventional physiotherapy, in relation to pain relief, improvement of functional disability and muscle strength. Materials and Method: Forty individuals will be randomly distributed in two groups, with group 1 (G1) exercises and placebo application of electrostimulation and group 2 (G2) exercises and application of NMES with the Aussie current in the quadriceps femoris muscle. In the treatment, 24 sessions will be carried out in a period of 12 weeks based on the gold standard for the treatment of knee OA. Clinical outcomes of pain intensity, functional disability and muscle strength will be measured at baseline, immediately after 12-week treatment and after 24-week follow-up by a single blinded evaluator at all stages. All statistical procedures will be carried out following the principles of "intention to treat" and the comparison between groups will be carried out through the test of Mixed Linear Models. Expected Results: It is expected that there will be improvement in the variables: pain, functional capacity and strength in both the groups, however in the group that carried out the application of the Aussie Current, the gains would be more precocious, when compared to the group that did not carry out the NMES.
The aim of the study is the evaluation of the effect of balneotherapy with Acquabios bicarbonate-alkaline-sodium thermal water in ameliorating some signs and symptoms of knee osteoarthritis in human subjects suffering from this disease
Kinesiotape is one of the treatment choices for the patients with knee osteoarthritis. Unlike the brace, it seems to be an important advantage in kinesiotape application in that it permits the movement of the joint. However, kinesiotape is conditionally recommended for knee osteoarthritis in the 2019 American College of Rheumatology treatment recommendations due to limiting the quality of evidence, using various application methods, and the lack of blindness concerning its use is not possible. The aim of the study is to determine the effects of kinesiotaping on pain, physical performance, knee range of motion, and postural stability in knee osteoarthritis.
The study is a multicenter, retrospective and prospective, non-randomized, non-controlled and consecutive series post-market study. The purpose of this study is to collect long-term data confirming safety, performance and clinical benefits of the Anatomical Shoulder 2.0 Fracture System (Implants and Instrumentation) when used for fracture shoulder arthroplasty. The primary objective is the assessment of safety by analyzing implant survivorship. This will be established by recording the incidence and frequency of revisions, complications and adverse events. Relation of the events to implant, instrumentation and/or procedure should be specified. The secondary objective is the assessment of performance and clinical benefits by recording patient-reported clinical outcome measures (PROMs) as well as radiographic outcomes.
