Filter by:The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the benefits and safety of controlled hypotension in Chinese patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms(UIA). The main questions it aims to answer are: - To provide high-level evidence of the benefits and safety of controlled hypotension in patients with UIA. - To provide evidence-based medical evidence for blood pressure control of patients with UIA in neurosurgery, and promote the progress of accurate individual management of patients. In this study, the main intervention is enhanced blood pressure lowering in patients with UIA. All Patients will be randomly assigned to either the standard blood pressure lowering (SBPL) group or the enhanced blood pressure lowering (EBPL) group.
To evaluate the effects of music therapy in the care of antepartum mothers admitted for long-term hospitalization due to the high-risk status of their pregnancy. The investigators speculate that mothers who receive music therapy will be more successful in forming positive coping habits, bonding with their infant, and increasing the length of incubation during their pregnancy. Furthermore, there is no research that correlates music therapy applied to stress reduction, increased coping, and increased caregiver-infant bonding prior to birth within one protocol. However, there is a significant amount of research supporting music therapy efficacy with neonatal intensive care unit infants and caregiver bonding post-partum as well as improved physiological signs of stress in infants in the post-partum period.
The antero-external cruciate ligament (ACL) is the ligament located inside the knee, which allows the rotation of the knee by stabilizing the femur and the tibia. Rupture of the ACL is common during the practice of certain so-called "pivot" sports, whether contact or not. It is manifested by acute pain or instability of the knee, following a crack during a twist and/or a blockage of the joint. The diagnosis will be confirmed by a clinical examination and X-rays to eliminate any fracture or tearing and by MRI to visualize the ligament rupture and the associated lesions, in particular a lesion of the meniscus. Treatment is required because the ruptured ligament does not heal on its own and the rupture of the ligament may eventually promote the appearance of osteoarthritis. Two types of treatment can be considered, rehabilitation or surgery, depending on the patient's age and motivation to resume sports. There are several surgical techniques, the most common is to reconstruct the ruptured ligament by arthroscopy using a graft taken from the tendons of the Internal Rectus and Demi muscles tendinous (DIDT). Rehabilitation by physiotherapy is often started preoperatively and immediately after the operation, as soon as you wake up, to find a functional and painless knee. Functional recovery often depends on patient motivation. The main objective is to show that osteopathic care in addition to physiotherapy rehabilitation improves knee functionality in patients 6 months after reconstruction of the ACL by DIDT.
The aim of our study is to reveal a comparison between interscalene brachial plexus block and shoulder anterior capsular block with respect to their efficacy on pain relief during perioperative anesthetic management. As intraoperative hemodynamic stability is an important factor for surgeons to achieve better outcomes because of its effect on the quality of arthroscopic visualization for shoulder arthroplasty, the investigators will also observe the effects of this matter. 50 patients scheduled for elective surgery will be randomized by closed envelope method into two groups (n=20) receiving either interscalene brachial plexus block or shoulder anterior capsular block preoperatively. Each group receives standardized general anesthesia and perioperative pain management protocol. Data to be recorded are numeric rating scales, intraoperative and postoperative analgesic use, intraoperative hemodynamic parameters, and arthroscopic visualization score. Moreover, block performance time, motor block, and side effects or complications will be noted.
The purpose of the present study is to measure whether a new technique of double row suturing of a ruptured Achilles tendon will result in a normalization of the length of the Soleus part (primary outcome) and of the superficial Gastrocnemius part of the tendon (secondary outcome) one-week post-operative. Results will be compared to that of a participants group that underwent the same operation but with a standard operative technique and the same rehabilitation regime recently completed (NCT04263493). The investigators hypothesize that the new suturing technique will result in an elongation of the Soleus part of the Achilles tendon (primary outcome) by 8.9 mm or less relative to the uninjured contralateral side one week (primary endpoint) after surgery compared to retrospective data from a recently completed randomized controlled trial
The aim of this study is to measure the recovery following Achilles tendon rupture. The investigators will use an ultrasound scan to look at the Achilles tendon, they will complete calf strength tests and use questionnaires to measure how individuals are managing in everyday life. The investigators will take these measurements when participants first arrive to the Achilles tendon rupture clinic, after 8 weeks, 10 weeks, 4 months, 6 months and 1 year.
Analysis of Radiological Features of Lateral Femoral Impaction Fracture (LFC-IF) / Lateral Femoral Notch Sign will be performed on MRIs of consecutive patients after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and without ACL injuries.
Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are one of the most common sports knee injuries. Their effect on the knee joint can be detrimental with patients experiencing instability and progressive damage of the intraarticular structures. Therefore, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is often indicated. Multiple graft option exist, including autograft, allograft and xenograft tissues, with autografts being considered as a first-choice source of reconstructed ligament in most cases. Two most common harvested autografts are hamstring tendons (semitendinosus or semitendinosus and gracilis tendons; ST or STG) and patellar tendon with two bone blocks (bone - patellar tendon - bone; BPTB). However, in the recent literature there is an increasing trend towards use of quadriceps tendon autograft (QT). Multiple techniques of harvesting this graft were described, including both partial and complete thickness of the tendon. Another issue is whether bone block from the upper pole of the patella is harvested along with the soft tissues (quadriceps tendon bone graft, QTB). The aim of this study is to add to the body of knowledge concerning full-thickness quadriceps tendon-bone autograft (QTB) used in ACLR. The primary outcome consists of The International Knee Documentation Committee Questionnaire (IKDC), the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and retear rate.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the use of a screw made of human bone (Shark-Screw®, Surgebright-GmbH) with the metal/Bio-Tenodesis screw (Arthrex) in the treatment of the symptomatic flatfoot using the medializing calcaneus osteotomy with flexor digitorum longus transfer (FDL) in adult patients. The advantage of the human bone screw is that after surgery no hardware removal is necessary. The screw is transformed from the body to normal bone. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can the human bone screw achieve union rates like the metal/Bio-Tenodesis screw? - Is the time to union similar between the different screws? - Is the complication rate similar between the different screws? - Are the activity scores American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) and Foot Function Index (FFI) after surgery similar in the compared patient groups? Participants will have - the surgery - follow-ups at 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 and 2 years. - X-rays are performed at each follow up. - CT-scans are performed after 6 months. - activity scores are collected at the follow up after 6 months, 1 year and 2 years.
The goal of this pilot randomized pilot controlled trial (RTC)is to collect acceptability and feasibility outcomes of a physiotherapy individualized program in women with levator injury that is intended to be used in a larger scale multicenter randomized controlled trial (RTC) in the future. The main questions it aims to answer are if a physiotherapy program in women with a levator injury: 1. Can improve the pelvic floor morphometry (PFM). 2. Can improve urogynecological symptoms 3. The effect of a physiotherapy program in the sexual function 4. The effect of a physiotherapy program in the patient's fear avoidance beliefs about physical activity and work Type of study: randomized pilot controlled trial (RTC) The design of this trial will be a pilot randomized controlled trial with 3 arms. Participants will be randomized in 2 arm of women with levator ani injury to either physiotherapy or standard care and an arm of woman without levator injury Researchers will compare the 3 groups to see if a physiotherapy program have benefits in morphometry of the pelvic floor, urogynecological symptoms, sexual function and to avoid fear avoidance beliefs about physical activity and work.
