Effect of Perineural Dexmedetomidine vs. Dexamethasone on the duration of popliteal nerve block for Anesthesia After Pediatric ankle/foot surgery.

NCT ID: NCT06233565 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Ankle Injuries and Disorders

Dexamethasone vs. Dexmedetomidine for Popliteal Nerve Block in Pain Management After Pediatric Ankle and Foot Surgery

Start date: February 9, 2024
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Effect of perineurial dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine on popliteal nerve block duration for pediatric, ankle or foot surgery

NCT ID: NCT06125158 Completed - Clinical trials for Ankle Injuries and Disorders

Effects of Hip Strength Training and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation on Functional Ankle Instability

Start date: October 18, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of two methods of elevating hip muscle strength on functional ankle instability(FAI). . The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Whether hip strength training and neuromuscular electrical stimulation of the gluteal muscles, respectively, based on conventional ankle training improves dysfunction in patients with FAI? - Is there a difference in the efficacy of the above two interventions for FAI?

NCT ID: NCT05847972 Completed - Clinical trials for Ankle Injuries and Disorders

Effect of Manual Therapy and Inmediately Application of Plantar Orthoses

Start date: June 6, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Limitation of ankle dorsiflexion is directly related to pronated foot. For its treatment, plantar orthoses and manual therapy are used. There is a lack of evidence on their combination, as to when the cast should be taken after manipulation. Our hypothesis proposes that it is more effective to cast immediately after manipulation.

NCT ID: NCT05662449 Recruiting - Ankle Fractures Clinical Trials

A Cohort Study of Bioabsorbable Screws for Syndesmosis Fixation Fixation in Ankle Fracture

Synfix
Start date: April 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The investigators aim to evaluate the fixation of the ankle syndesmosis in appropriate ankle fractures with bioabsorbable screws. Ankle fractures are common, and a proportion of them involve both fracture of the bone and also disruption of the syndesmosis, a strong ligamentous complex connecting the distal fibula and tibia. If left without fixation this causes a high incidence of pain and early arthritis. The most common technique for fixation of this syndesmosis involves the use of the same type of metal screws used to fix the fractured bones. As the syndesmosis permits small degrees of movement in normal subjects, fixation of this with metal usually leads to screw breakage and, or pain. It is common practice to remove these screws after a period of time once the syndesmosis has healed in the correct position. Bioabsorbable screws have the advantage of allowing small increments of movement, and also resorb naturally therefore do not have to be removed with a second surgical procedure. They are used in other centres worldwide, and the investigators therefore seek to evaluate syndesmosis fixation with them in their unit. The investigators would aim to recruit patients who have a syndesmotic injury requiring fixation, and who can consent to participating. They would undergo an identical surgical procedure to the standard current practice, apart from using a bioabsorbable screw in exchange for the metallic screw for syndesmosis fixation. All other components would remain unchanged, as would post operative protocol and management. To evaluate the fixation the investigators would use a limited CT scan (equivalent of about 3 months background radiation) after the time of fixation and at one year. This will help to assess the maintenance of reduction of the syndesmosis with time. The investigators would also assess patient reported outcome measures and pain scores, length of procedure and intraoperative radiation levels, weight bearing distribution tests, as well as any complication that may arise.

NCT ID: NCT05500131 Completed - Knee Injuries Clinical Trials

The Association Between Restricted Ankle Joint Dorsiflexion and Dynamic Knee Valgus

TOBROD
Start date: October 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study was to analyze if a low ankle dorsiflexion range is associate with dynamic knee valgus in youth basketball players.

NCT ID: NCT05494645 Recruiting - Pain, Postoperative Clinical Trials

Exparel Use in Peripheral Nerve Blocks and Local Infiltration for Foot and Ankle Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Liposomal Bupivacaine (Exparel) has been recently studied as the active agent utilized in various nerve block. Due to its liposomal form allowing for extended delivery, Exparel has been used in various peri-operative nerve blocks among multiple orthopaedic specialties in hopes of achieving improved pain control and decreased opioid use. This study compares the efficacy and effect on opioid use of peripheral nerve blocks and local infiltration with and without Exparel in patients undergoing foot and ankle surgery.

NCT ID: NCT04944576 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Ankle Injuries and Disorders

Observational Study to Evaluate Safety and Performance of the Total Ankle Prosthesis, EasyMove®

Start date: September 14, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study is a post-market clinical follow-up conducted in order to collect long-term data on safety and performance of the EasyMove prosthesis, which is intended to be implanted in case of total ankle replacement, when used in real life conditions according to the instructions for use.

NCT ID: NCT04699396 Completed - Clinical trials for Ankle Injuries and Disorders

The Immediate Effect of Mobilisation With Movement in Amateur Futsal Athletes With Chronic Ankle Instability

Start date: January 14, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is an increasingly prevalent condition among futsal athletes. Mobilization with Movement (MWM) is a conservative rehabilitation strategy commonly used in this condition. Even so, the effects of two MWM dorsiflexion techniques on sports performance are not known. The aim is to analyze the immediate effect of two MWM techniques on the dorsiflexion range of motion, the dynamic balance and the performance variables in futsal athletes with CAI. Also, to analyze the impact of performing them in a different order.

NCT ID: NCT04390048 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Ankle Injuries and Disorders

Balance Training With tDCS for CAI

Start date: September 20, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research study is to examine the efficacy of non-invasive brain stimulation in addition to balance exercise for chronic ankle instability (CAI), a condition that develops following an initial ankle sprain, usually because of loose or unstable ankle joints.
