NCT ID: NCT06254794 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Effect of BFR Rehab After Achilles Tendon Rupture

Start date: November 13, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine if blood flow restriction therapy after Achilles tendon rupture reconstruction decreases post-operative calf atrophy, improves reported outcomes, and ultimately decreases return to play time.

NCT ID: NCT06252389 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Degenerative Achilles Tendon Rupture Repair With Regeneten Augmentation

Start date: February 1, 2025
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Retrospective Case Series to investigate the effect a bovine collagen patch to augmented repair in acute Achilles tendon rupture with pre-existing tendinopathy

NCT ID: NCT06114368 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Endoscopic Flexor Hallucis Longus Transfer vs Minimally Invasive Repair in Acute Achilles Tendon Rupture

Start date: March 5, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this observational study is to compare the outcomes of two different surgical techniques (Endoscopic Flexor Hallucis Longus transfer - Group 1 vs Minimally Invasive primary repair - Group 2) for patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture. The main questions to be answered are: 1. Which group's patients are more satisfied? 2. Which group's patients appear to have a greater complication rate? 3. Which group's patients have greater calf and ankle circumference compared to the unaffected limb? 4. Which group's patients have greater passive and active range of ankle motion compared to the unaffected limb? 5. Are group 1 patients characterized by strength deficit in hallux flexion power?

NCT ID: NCT06112288 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

The Acute Effect Comparisons of Manual Therapy Or Ankle Motion in Individuals Who Had Achilles Tendon Repair

Start date: April 26, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Achilles tendon rupture is common among physically active individuals. Limitations, decreases in the level of standing on heel rise, and due to these limitations, failures in functional activities such as returning to sports, walking, running, jumping and performance tests are observed. Manual therapy methods included in rehabilitation programs are an effective option in solving these problems. The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of Compressive Myofascial Release and Ankle joint mobilization on ankle joint movement, functional tests, elasticity and stiffness of the muscle-tendon complex and muscle tone parameters in individuals who underwent Achilles tendon repair.

NCT ID: NCT06009978 Not yet recruiting - Physical Disability Clinical Trials

Effect of Additional Treatment With NMES After Achilles Tendon Rupture

Start date: September 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Increased knowledge is needed about new methods how to treat patients with Achilles tendon ruptures (ATR). A goal is to be able to individualize as well as improve treatment beyond the question about if surgery should be used or not. An overall aim of the project is to, in a randomized controlled trial (RCT), explore what impact a new treatment method with Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) - attached on the patients ́ calf muscles on the injured leg - in the early stages after an ATR, may have on tendon length, functional performance, biomechanical variables and patient reported outcome, both in the short and long term after the injury. 70 patients are planned to be included in this RCT and will be evaluated 3,6 and 12 months after their injury. Primary outcome will be heel-rise height. Secondary outcome will be tendon length, jumping ability, patient- reported outcome and biomechanical loading pattern. There is also a need to explore if the patients ́ loading patterns improve after treatment with NMES. Therefore, biomechanical variables in lower leg during walking and jumping will also be evaluated one year after their injury. The planned studies include completely new ways of exploring how to optimize the rehabilitation after an ATR. Since there might be an increased risk for overuse injuries in the healthy limb, there will also be focus on how the non- injured limb may be affected of an ATR. Taken together, this new knowledge can be helpful in the clinical setting to individualize and optimize patients' treatment and rehabilitation with the goal to guide the patient return to the same, or higher level of, physical activity as before the injury.

NCT ID: NCT05957614 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Effects of Acupuncture-assisted Rehabilitation Protocol for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Start date: July 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This prospective study is to compare the rehabilitation effect between the patients with achilles tendon rupture using traditional rehabilitation protocol and acupuncture-assisted rehabilitation protocol. The main question it aims to answer is whether acupuncture is an effective rehabilitation treatment. The patients are divided into the traditional rehabilitation group and acupuncture assisted rehabilitation group. The time of return to light sports activity and other indicators of the two groups will be compared.

NCT ID: NCT05717270 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Two-layer Suturing of Achilles Tendon Ruptures

ATRBFH
Start date: May 23, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

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

NCT ID: NCT05683080 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Impact of Achilles Tendon Rupture on the Achilles Tendon and Calf Muscles

ARCH
Start date: May 24, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT05676632 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Impact of Achilles Tendon Ruptures: Cross-Sectional Analysis

Start date: May 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This project will assess the clinical outcomes of individuals completing rehabilitation for their Achilles tendon rupture at the University Hospitals of Leicester. Patients attending the Achilles tendon rupture clinic or rehabilitation classes will be asked to complete ultrasound imaging, strength testing and questionnaires. This will provide an insight into the rehabilitation outcomes of a broad range of patients at each rehabilitation timepoint.

NCT ID: NCT05614908 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Achilles Tendon Rupture

Outcome After Conservatively Treated Achilles Tendon Rupture

Start date: November 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The main purpose of the study is to investigate self-reported functional ability of patients undergoing conservatively treated achilles tendon rupture at 6, 12 and 24 months from the date of injury.
