Filter by:A Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) Study to collect clinical data on safety and performance of all TEKNIMED Spine range of products: SPINEFIX, HIGH V+, OPACITY+ and F20 bone cements and mixing and injection systems, and all their private labels. TEKNIMED bone cements are legacy products, some marketed for more than 10 years. Their performance and safety have already been demonstrated by Post-Market Surveillance and previous clinical studies. The current Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to confirm these claims by collecting data in a "real-life" setting. The study is a retrospective and prospective global, single arm, non-controlled, multicentric, prospective observational study. Patients will be followed as per local standard medical care of the sites.
The purpose of this randomized double-blind clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in relieving severe pain in patients with MRI-verified acute or sub-acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) compared to sham as well as examine the socio-economic implications associated with performing vertebroplasty. The primary outcome is improvement of pain intensity as measured on a Visual Analog Scale (VAS, 0 to100) 12 weeks after treatment. Secondary outcomes include patient-reported back-related disability, patient-reported quality of life, spinal sagittal balance, complications associated with the procedure, incidence of new OVCFs and socioeconomic costs.
Study is a prospective observational, performed in the context of normal clinical practice, of patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures identified as candidates for kyphoplasty treatment with porous trabecular titanium microspheres (see whether to put commercial name and company). The study does not involve any interference with the patient's diagnostic-therapeutic course The objective of the study is the clinical-radiological evaluation of the efficacy of kyphoplasty treatment with trabecular porous titanium spheres in terms of pain control and reduction of kyphotic deformity following fracture. Further evaluation of the safety of the treatment in terms of absence of intraoperative adverse events and material-related toxicity.
Physiotherapy has an important place in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral fractures. Therapeutic exercise is often recommended for patients with vertebral fractures to reduce pain and restore functional movement. There is not enough evidence in the literature to determine the effects of long-term exercise on osteoporotic fractures and their side effects. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of 12-week exercise training in patients with osteoporotic vertebral fractures.
Vertebral column fracture presents a significant warning of subsequent osteoporotic fracture and frequent falls. The presence of an osteoporotic vertebral fracture is also a predictor of further risk of vertebral and other osteoporotic fractures. This study provides balance assessment and gait evaluation for subjects with a known vertebral fracture. Subjects are the known cases of vertebral fracture living in the community. They will be assessed for their balance and gait weight distribution by the TechnoBody for their balance ability, and the Zebris Gait System for the gait weight distribution. The Humac Norm for the lower limb muscle strength.
Vertebral compression fracture is a common disorder in elderly patients. Vertebroplasty or surgical fixation are therefore commonly performed, in which bone cement is injected and help to provide additional support for unstable fracture to ease the pain. Cement leakage to paraspinal vein is very common and often taken as indicator of endpoint of the procedure. However, the leaked cement entering venous system can go to right heart and cause pulmonary embolism sometimes. The prevalence and pattern of this problem is largely unknown, especially subclinical condition. In this project, we intend to perform in vivo investigation of the cement distribution under different injection conditions. We also plan to conduct a clinical study to investigate the pattern, prevalence, and risk factor of cement venous leakage and pulmonary embolism. The study is a prospective cohort design, in which we plan to recruit 60 patients who receive vertebroplasty or cemented pedicle screws fixation for vertebral compression fracture. Plain X ray and computed tomography (CT) will be performed after operation. For CT, plain CT for operated site and dual energy acquisition for pulmonary vasculature will be performed, in which the pulmonary perfusion will be detected precisely. The different modalities can help delineate of radiological pattern of cement leakage. Spine surgeon, interventional radiologist, neuroradiologist, and thoracic radiologist will participate in this project. Experience on the optimal technique for cement use under fluoroscope is expected. The knowledge obtained in this study can be used in clinical ground and translate into academic outcome and clinical patient care.
This study is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, European clinical study designed to evaluate the clinical performance and safety of the AGN1 LOEP SV Kit for the treatment of painful VCFs.
Multiple myeloma is a disease that causes increased bone fragility which is often revealed or complicated by vertebral fractures. Invasion of bone marrow by tumor plasma cells leads to bone destruction and reduced fat fraction. The main objective is to assess the correlation between vertebral bone marrow fat fraction and bone fragility represented by a severity score of vertebral fractures. The secondary objective is to assess the correlation with clinical and biological prognostic factors and scores..
Patients with newly diagnosed or known multiple myeloma with newly diagnosed vertebral lesion(s) will be invited to participate in a cross-sectoral randomized controlled trial. The trial will compare two groups of patients which either receive regular medical treatment of their vertebral lesion(s) or vertebroplasty in addition to regular medical treatment. Our goal is to investigate the effectiveness of vertebroplasty and determine the role of surgical treatment in the overall treatment of patients with multiple myeloma and vertebral lesion(s).
The aim of the trial is to study efficacy and safety of Kyphoplasty technique with porous titanium microspheres in patients with type A vertebral body fracture (according to Magerl classification).
