Filter by:This is an observational study, meaning participants will not receive any investigational treatment as part of this study. Researchers will collect real-world data (RWD), based on usual care, to gain a more in-depth knowledge of the natural history and the treatment outcomes of Dupuytren's Contracture (DC) to evaluate the management of DC.
A 2 arm, 90 patient (45 per cohort) trial in patients with breast cancer who will be undergoing mastectomy with immediate tissue-expander reconstruction to determine whether treatment with zafirlukast (20mg PO BID) can reduce or prevent the development of capsular contracture.
Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a common complication of allogeneic stem cell transplant.Chronic GVHD is characterized by skin thickening and tightening. Advanced sclerosis can lead to reduced range of motion and incapacitating joint contractures. Once present, there are few therapeutic options. We will treat sclerosis and limb contractures with an ablative fractional laser, a device FDA-approved for scar treatment. This approach has successfully treated contracturesdue to burn scars.
Purpose: The purpose of this investigation is to test the safety and effectiveness of the Aspen System™ and Aspen Rehabilitation Technique. The device is intended for the therapeutic treatment of capsular contracture of the breast in conjunction with the Aspen Rehabilitation Technique. The hypothesis of the proposed study is that external ultrasound with the Aspen System™ device in conjunction with the Aspen Rehabilitation Technique is safe and effective in the reduction by at least one level of Baker Grade III capsular contracture in cosmetic breast augmentation patients, maintained at one year from the final treatment. Potential benefits of the study to subjects include improvement in the grade of capsular contracture of the breast without surgical treatment. The investigation is planned to last 12 months.
The purpose of this study is to determine if botulinum toxin type A (Botox) injections, at the time of surgery for pilon fractures, will improve ankle range-of-motion and functionality.
To determine the efficacy of Metatarsal Dynasplint Sytem (MTP) in reducing contracture of hallux limitus secondary to Bunionectomy, in a longitudinal, controlled trial.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of ICX-RHY-013 in the treatment of stable, restrictive scars in subjects who have suffered a burn injury. Evaluation will be achieved through regular assessment of adverse events, vital signs, blood work monitoring and laboratory analysis cellular properties of the scar through biopsy. The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate improvement in symptoms of scars including reduced pain, discomfort and itching, improvement in mobility and daily function, improvement in appearance and scar texture.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the Ankle Dorsiflexion Dynasplint System (DS) is effective in treating contracture for patients with Ankle Equinus secondary to diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to determine if of manipulation of digits following collagenase injection for treatment of Dupuytren's contracture is effected by the amount of time between injection and manipulation.
The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between cutaneous functional unit(CFU)recruitment throughout the available active range of motion of a prescribed joint in normal subjects and patients with burn scars. Specifically, this study will determine if differences in CFU recruitment exist between normal subjects and individuals with burn scars at the dorsal hand, dorsal or volar forearm, or anterior or posterior arm during active range of motion of the MCP joint during flexion, or the wrist or elbow during flexion or extension, respectively.
