NCT ID: NCT05554900 Recruiting - Amputation Neuroma Clinical Trials

The Efficacy of Preventive Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Interface(RPNI) Reconstruction in Amputees

Start date: May 12, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The trial will be carried out in Peking University People's Hospital. The whole trial will last 3 years. Amputees from orthopedics and vascular surgery will be distributed into two groups randomly and receive different treatments including traditional resection and regenerative peripheral nerve interface(RPNI) surgery.The pain outcome,the impact of post-amputation pain on life and the utilization rate of prostheses will be collected to study the efficacy, safety and prognosis of preventive regenerative peripheral nerve interface reconstruction in amputees. Investigators believe that RPNI can effectively reduce the incidence of post-amputation pain, reduce the degree of pain, improve the wearing rate of prostheses, and help patients return to normal life.

NCT ID: NCT05009394 Recruiting - Phantom Limb Pain Clinical Trials

Surgical Treatments for Postamputation Pain

Start date: June 20, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a double-blind randomised controlled trial (RCT) which compares the effectiveness of three surgical techniques for alleviating residual limb pain (RLP), neuroma pain and phantom limb pain (PLP). The three surgical treatments are Targeted Muscles Reinnervation (TMR), Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Interface (RPNI), and an active control (neuroma excision and muscle burying). Patients will be follow-up for 4 years.

NCT ID: NCT04378062 Terminated - Pain Clinical Trials

Pain After Proximal Digital Amputation Prevention

PAPDAP
Start date: March 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Finger amputations are common and may be complicated by debilitating nerve pain. This study seeks to determine if nerve pain after digital amputation can be more effectively prevented with either of two new surgical techniques-targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) or regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces (RPNI)-compared to standard treatment by traction neurectomy (TN).

Surgical Treatments for Neuroma Pain in Amputees

STOCAP
Start date: April 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Amputees often suffer from relentless pain and disability resulting from symptomatic neuromas within the amputation stumps. When conservative measures fail to address these symptoms, two contemporary surgical approaches to treat symptomatic neuromas have become the most popular. Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is a procedure which involves transferring the injured proximal nerve stump into a terminal nerve branch entering muscle, such that the axons from the proximal nerve stump will regenerate into the muscle and thereby prevent neuroma recurrence. Regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces (RPNIs) are muscle grafts placed on the proximal nerve stumps that serve as targets for the regenerating axons from the proximal nerve stumps. While TMR and RPNIs have demonstrated promise for the treatment of symptomatic neuromas, prospective comparative data comparing outcomes with these two approaches is lacking. The investigators have recently developed a novel approach to treat symptomatic neuromas that provides vascularized, denervated muscle targets (VDMTs) for the axons regenerating from the severed proximal nerve stump to reinnervate. This is accomplished by islandizing a segment of muscle on its blood supply and ensuring complete denervation prior to implanting the neighboring transected nerve stump into this muscle. VDMTs offer theoretical benefits in comparison to RPNIs and TMR that the investigators also aim to test in the proposed study. The investigators' objective is to enroll amputees with symptomatic neuromas into a prospective study in which amputees will be randomized to undergo TMR, RPNI, or VDMT and subsequently monitored for pain and disability for 1-year post-operatively. The investigators' specific aims are as follows: 1) Test the hypothesis that VDMTs are more effective than TMR and RPNIs with regards to treating pain and disability associated with symptomatic neuromas; 2) Provide the first level one, prospective data directly comparing the efficacy of TMR and RPNIs.

NCT ID: NCT03957226 Withdrawn - Amputation Clinical Trials

An Osseoanchored Percutaneous Prosthesis Study Evaluating Stable Neural Signal Transmission in Subjects With Transhumeral Amputations

Start date: January 30, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This early feasibility study proposes to evaluate use of the electronic-Osseoanchored Prostheses for the Rehabilitation of Amputees (e-OPRA) device, a transhumeral implant system for direct skeletal anchorage of amputation prostheses, with a test prosthesis. The e-OPRA System is being investigated to better understand the ability to improve the functionality of the prosthesis and enhance the sense of embodiment of the prosthesis itself. This will be a 10 subject Early Feasibility Study in which the primary objective is to capture preliminary safety and effectiveness information on the implanted e-OPRA system. With the addition of electrodes to the muscle segments, this biological interface allows for both the extraction of fine motor control signals from the nerve fascicles and the generation of sensory percepts via electrical stimulation of the muscles. In addition, electrodes placed on muscles within the residuum with native vascularization and innervation also allow the extraction of critical motor control signals and the generation of sensory feedback through muscle stimulation. The electrical activity recorded from these muscle segments (called electromyography or EMG) is specific to certain movements and can be used to determine precisely how a person wants to move their arm and hand. Use of the e-OPRA device with the well-documented neuro-electronic capabilities of EMG control systems provides an alternative to traditional socket prostheses by establishing a direct, loadbearing link between the patient's skeleton and prosthesis.

Short-term Implanted Electrodes Following Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Surgery for Improving Prosthetic Limb Control Signals

Start date: July 19, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The device, a bipolar percutaneous intramuscular electromyography electrode, is intended for use in upper-limb amputation patients who have received the regenerative peripheral nerve interface surgical procedure, in order to enable the use of advanced prosthetic arms and hands.
