Filter by:To investigate the differences between the two methods for reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), to support the development of the best method for young federated male football players. After surgery with quadricipital tendon graft or semitendinosus tendon graft, a two-year follow-up and the rate of return to sport are proposed.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate subjective and objective clinical outcomes and imaging data of subjects undergoing reconstruction or revision of LCA reconstruction using OrthoPure XT
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury constitutes the largest problem in female elite ball/team sport today, due to its relatively high incidence and serious short- and long-term consequences. Especially in handball, these injuries typically occur in actions that are essential for the game, i.e. landings and cutting maneuvers, imposing a challenge for risk reduction strategies. Although knowledge about risk factors is constantly increasing and ACL injury prevention programs have been successful in reducing injuries in rigorous scientific study settings, the real-world injury incidence remains high, and even continues to increase. The purpose of this explorative intervention study is to assess the effect of an eight-week strength and technique training in female handball players and its influence on ACL-specific risk factors, especially knee abduction moment (KAM). The results are compared with a control group that did not do the specially designed technique/muscle training.
A prospective study, with outcomes including re-rupture rate and return to sport will be collected following ACL reconstruction. In keeping with the surgeon's standard practice, patients 24 years and under that are skeletally mature, will receive a quad tendon autograft; patients 25 years of age and over will receive an allograft All-Inside ACL reconstruction. These two cohorts will then be randomized into two groups, one with bone marrow/DBM and InternalBrace augmentation, and one without. The study procedures will involve use of x-rays, MRI, CT scan, and surveys at varying time points to assess radiographic, imaging and clinical outcomes.
The aim of this multi-centered study is to evaluate the effects of two distinct Adductor Canal Block (ACB) adjuncts, dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine, and their combination, on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Repair.
The objective of this study is to answer the following questions: 1. Does the appearance of the reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) vary in appearance on PET/MRI depending on graft type and time after surgery? 2. What is the appearance of the native ACL on Positron Emission Tomography/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (PET/MRI)?
Primary objective of the study is to evaluate efficacy of the surgical technique for ACL reconstruction using an osteoconductive scaffold, enlaced into the hamstring tendon autograft, compared to the traditional technique.
