Filter by:This research study is designed to allow the investigator to answer many questions about the reasons why anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury leads to knee pain and disability and osteoarthritis. The purpose of this research is to gather information on how safe and effective Gel-One is in alleviating knee pain following ACL surgery.
Care in ambulatory surgery (CA) is growing in France, despite lagging behind other countries in North or US Europe. Arthroscopic knee surgery is a minimally invasive surgery eligible for CA. Currently 71.8% of knee arthroscopy are made in this context. However ligamentoplasties anterior cruciate are still carried out predominantly in conventional hospitalization (HC) with a median of 3 to 5.5 days of stay. Two recent prospective studies French single-operator shows the feasibility of reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in ambulatory: no serious events were recorded, the risks are comparable to those of a HC. However, this support requires a structure and a coordinated network between different medical and paramedical (surgeons, anesthetists, nurse frame, City nurse, doctor, physiotherapist). The objective of the study is to evaluate (i.e. EPP or "feasibility") ACL reconstruction in CA in hospitals, multi-operator.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament ACL reconstruction can be performed under the combination of posterior lumbar plexus block plus sciatic nerve block. The investigators can have the same outcome by performing instead of posterior lumbar plexus block more peripheral nerve blocks. More specifically under the combination of sciatic nerve block plus femoral nerve block plus obturator nerve block.
The purpose of this study is to compare two different soft tissue allografts, double bundle tibialis anterior allograft or quadruple bundle hamstring allograft, used in repairing a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee.
A poor outcome in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is often related to tunnel position. The researchers believe that improving the accuracy of tunnel position will lead to an improved outcome in ACL surgery. The researchers' purpose is to perform a controlled study on a series of 500 patients in two groups: group I (250 cases) using conventional instrumentation and group II (250 cases) using navigation (Surgetics ACL Julliard protocol).
