Filter by:Epidemiology of foot and ankle surgeries that present to the hospitals in the US are often underestimated. However there has been growing emphasis on identification of these injuries and practice patterns.
The effectiveness of conservative treatment of hallux valgus deformity has not been sufficiently explored yet. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the toe-spread-out exercise on the amplitude and frequency pattern in a surface electromyographic examination in patients with hallux valgus and in people without the deformity. An additional objective is the assessment of nerve conduction in an electroneurography and the assessment of range of motion in a clinical examination.
Investigate the optimal timing for weight bearing after Hallux Valgus surgery. Hypothesis: Early weight bearing does not affect outcome after the Endoscopic Distal Soft Tissue Procedure for Hallux Valgus Correction.
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose, sequential-group Phase 1 study. The study will be conducted utilizing a cohort design, with sequential groups of 8 subjects. Within each dose cohort, 6 subjects will be randomized to active, and 2 will be randomized to placebo.
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of Wafermine™ for post-bunionectomy or post-abdominoplasty pain over a 24 hours period. For subjects undergoing bunionectomy, 2 out of 3 subjects will receive Wafermine™ and 1 out of 3 subjects will receive placebo. For subjects undergoing abdominoplasty, 3 out of 4 subjects will receive Wafermine™ and 1 out of 4 subjects will receive placebo.
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) represents one of the most innovative surgical treatments of Hallux Valgus (HV). However, long-term outcomes still remain a matter of discussion within the orthopaedic community. The purpose of this longitudinal prospective study was to evaluate radiographic and functional outcomes in patients with mild-to-severe HV who underwent Reverdin-Isham and Akin percutaneous osteotomy, following exostosectomy and lateral release.
A Phase 2, Randomized, Controlled, Multicenter, Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Locally Administered HTX-011 for Postoperative Analgesia Following Bunionectomy
Hallux Vagus is a common deformity which affects the first metatarsalphalangeal joint. The current diagnostic tool is using X-ray which is expensive and includes radiation exposure. The current study is aimed at using the foot pressure platform as an alternative method for diagnosis and evaluation of the deformity. The main subjects will be recruited from orthopaedic outpatient clinics. The recruited subjects will undergo the non-invasive and radiation free study by walking on a pressure platform. Then their pressure data will be correlated with their radiological study which has already been done in the clinic. The aimed outcome of the study is use the foot pressure platform as first line of diagnosis and evaluation of the Hallux Valgus deformity.
Patients often seek advice from their treating doctor if they are able to drive with a foot orthosis after a first metatarsal osteotomy for symptomatic hallux valgus and/or after an additional forefoot surgery. This challenging question is of obvious importance for the patient and other road users. Previous studies already issued driving ability after different orthopedic procedures and with knee and ankle devices on the brake reaction time but missed to address the same for foot orthoses after hallux valgus or forefoot surgery. This missing evidence made us evaluate the influence of wearing a foot orthosis after a first metatarsal osteotomy or forefoot surgery on driving ability (brake response time; BRT). The overall time frame is about nine weeks; each appointment for BRT measurement takes about fifteen to twenty minutes. The first BRT measurement is one day before the foot surgery without a foot orthosis (normal shoe)and with the orthoses (control run) (1) at two days (2), two weeks (3), four weeks (4) and six weeks (5) after the operation with a HVS and a FRS and eight weeks postoperative without a foot orthoses (6).
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of continuous wound infiltration with ropivacaine in comparison to standard pain management after elective distal metatarsal osteotomy for postoperative pain control.
