Filter by:The study is a multicenter, retrospective, non-randomized, non-controlled and consecutive series post-market study. The purpose of this study is to collect data confirming safety, performance and clinical benefits of the ToggleLoc 2.9 mm and the JuggerLoc Soft Tissue Systems when used for soft tissue to bone fixation in the shoulder. The primary objective is the assessment of performance by analyzing soft tissue to bone healing in the shoulder. The secondary objective is the assessment of safety and clinical benefits. Safety will be evaluated by recording and analyzing the incidence and frequency of complications and adverse events. Relation of the events to device, instrumentation and/or procedure will be specified. Clinical benefits will be assessed by recording patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) at the longest follow-up after surgery (minimum one year).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of AIN457 (secukinumab s.c.) compared to placebo in adult patients with moderate to severe rotator cuff tendinopathy and failure to conventional therapy. - The study duration will be 24 weeks. - The treatment duration will 12 weeks with 12 weeks follow-up. - The visit frequency will be weekly until visit 7 and 4-weekly until end of treatment and 4 follow-up visits.
The aim of study is to investigate the effect of Phonophoresis with topical glyceryl trinitrate versus traditional treatment in in patients with non-insertional Achilles tendinopathy.
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of single PRP injection compared with placebo and multiple PRP injections on pain, quality of life, shoulder function and muscle strength in the treatment of patients who have tendinopathy and/or partial tear in the rotator cuff.
Conventional radiographs are still considered the reference for identifying rotator cuff calcific tendinosis. MRI is widely performed for rotator cuff disorders evaluation but has a moderate accuracy in rotator cuff calcific tendinosis diagnosis and calcific deposits identification (sensitivity and specificity around 60%), even though it helps in determining acuity of the finding by adjacent soft tissue edema depiction and differential diagnosis identification (i.e. adhesive capsulitis, sub-acromial bursitis…). Zero echo time (ZTE) MRI provides enhanced bone contrast by enabling the acquisition of signals from tissues exhibiting the shortest T2 values on a single sequence with a spatial resolution of 0.8-1.2 mm isotropic and can therefore provide images similar to those obtained with radiographs. We hypothesize that ZTE images could also depict rotator cuff calcific tendinosis, but to our knowledge, no study compared this technique to radiographs and/or standard MRI.
Decathlon has developed the Elbow soft300 which is a medical device that must be positioned around the elbow to keep a physical activity on a regular basis in case of chronic epicondylitis, pain associated with tendonitis or chronic instability. The objective of this multicentre study is to collect data on the related clinical complications and clinical outcomes of market-approved Decathlon Elbow soft 300 product to demonstrate safety and performance of this device in a real-world setting. Outcome data collected from this study will provide the basis for Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) reporting, Clinical Study Report (CSR), Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) on Decathlon ElbowSoft300 device and support peer-reviewed publications on products performance and safety.
Achilles tendinitis is a common condition that cause pain along back of leg near the heal. It is an overuse injury of the Achilles tendon, the band of tissue that connect calf muscles at the back of the lower leg to heel bone. There are number of treatment approaches to relieve pain in Achilles tendonitis . Insufficient literature has discuss the combine effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance. So the aim of the study is to compare the effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance and without eccentric resistance on pain , range of motion and functional disability in patient with Achilles tendinitis
This study is a randomized controlled trial conducted to compare the effects of synchronous and asynchronous telerehabilitation programs on pain, disability, and quality of life parameters in patients with shoulder tendinopathy in the Marmara University Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department.
Achilles tendinopathy is characterized by pain, decreased performance and swelling in and around the tendon. Up to 29% of patients with Achilles tendinopathy may require surgical intervention. It can be complicated by partial tears or complete rupture, placing a long-term burden on the healthcare system and making treatment more difficult. The most common location of Achilles tendinopathy is in the insertional area of the calcaneus, 1.5 to 2 cm cranial to the bone. The most common location of pathologic inflammation was at the fascial intersection of the medial gastrocnemius and soleus when fused with the proximal Achilles tendon (66% of patients and the distal part of the Achilles tendon near the calcaneus. The four cornerstones of tendon histopathology are: cellular activation and increased cell number, increased ground substance, collagen disorganization and neovascularization. In addition, blood supply is one of the most influential factors in tendon tissue repair. A recent clinical trial compared the outcome after low frequency microwave hyperthermia with traditional ultrasound. The hyperthermia group recorded significantly better results after treatment and one month later. The use of deep heating modalities, due to their beneficial effects of increased circulation and cellular metabolism resulting in increased waste and nutrient exchange in a specific area, has long been accepted as part of the treatment of overuse tendinopathies . The application of heat has been reported to improve blood flow and oxygen saturation in the Achilles tendon.Physical therapies based on electrical or electromagnetic stimulation have been used in rehabilitation, in some cases combining electrical therapy with radiofrequency. Specifically, resistive capacitive electrical transfer therapy (CRet) has been used in physical rehabilitation and sports medicine to treat muscle, bone, ligament and tendon injuries. CRet is a non-invasive electrothermal therapy classified as deep thermotherapy, which is based on the application of electrical currents within the radiofrequency range of 300 kHz - 1.2 MHz. he effects attributed to this technique include increased deep and superficial blood circulation, vasodilatation, increased temperature, elimination of excess fluid and increased cell proliferation. Some of these reactions, such as increased blood perfusion, are known to be related to the increase in temperature, but others, such as increased cell proliferation, appear to be primarily related to the passage of current. There are currently numerous treatment proposals for this pathology, however, the only one that has shown significant improvements are eccentric exercise protocols. The only drawback of this type of exercise is that the results are obtained in the long term. There is currently no study that has compared the effectiveness of adding a tecartherapy protocol to the eccentric exercise protocol in chronic Achilles tendinopathy in athletes in the short and medium term in both functional and structural variables.
The main objective of this research project is to study the transient adaptations that occur in the tendon immediately after the object of training with low loads and blood flow restriction and to compare these adaptations with those derived from training with high loads, in order to thus helping to elucidate the complex existing framework regarding the effects of this training methodology on the tendon.
