Filter by:Long term follow-up of patients those who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair using MG-1 for dislocation of shoulder to evaluate anchor bone hole condition and ossification.
The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of recall in patients managed in emergency department with a procedural sedation protocol using propofol in a population of 250 .
california tri-pull taping (CTPT) method might be effective in reducing shoulder subluxation, pain, and improving active flexion range (AFLXN) range of motion, and functional recovery after stroke.
Background: The forces involved in a patella dislocation event can cause significant collateral damage involving the articular cartilage of the patella femoral joint. As a result, prevention of recurrent patella dislocation and the associated disability and morbidity has generated significant interest in the orthopedic community. Historically, nonoperative treatment for first time patella dislocation has been problematic due to high redislocation rates. Nonoperative protocols generally involve bracing and/or immobilization, followed by physical therapy (1). Surgical approaches to recurrent patella dislocation, both soft tissue and boney realignment operations, have also had mixed results, including low success rates, associated complications, and variable rates of return to functional activity (2,3,4). This study is intended to compare the outcomes of a relatively low-risk Medial Patellofemoral Ligament (MPFL) direct repair procedure to conservative treatment. Methods/Design: This study is designed as a two arm randomized prospective trial. Approximately fifty subjects will be randomly assigned to either a surgical or non-operative arm by means of a computer randomized allocation program. All subjects will have X-Ray Images and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to determine the site of the MPFL damage, and to determine if any excluding conditions exist. Subjects randomized to the surgical group will have repair of the MPFL. Routine aftercare will consist of physical therapy in a clinic that has agreed to follow our protocol. Subjects randomized to the nonoperative group will receive 2 weeks of patellar immobilization, followed by patellar stabilization bracing with physical therapy for approximately 12 weeks. Physical therapy will progress through five phases with the goal of gait normalization, full range of motion and return to sport. Both arms will be given outcome questionnaires and physical activity assessments before treatment, and at one, three, six, twelve, and twenty four month intervals. Discussion: This prospective randomized trial will investigate the results of direct repair of the medial patellofemoral ligament and conservative treatment by applying subjective outcome measures (Kujala scores), and exam findings to determine MPFL functional restoration or redislocation. Subjects will be examined in the clinic setting at 10 days, one month, and six months post trauma. Any reported recurrent dislocation or subluxation event will be documented during recovery. All subjects will receive merchant x-ray views at 3 months with manual lateral translation of the patella.
The purpose of our study is to evaluate the effect of tramadol as an adjunct to ropivacaine local anesthetic solution in interscalene brachial plexus block for shoulder surgery.
Developmental dislocation of the hip is a common disease in children, and its incidence in China is about 9 ‰.The pathological changes of it is complex. The reluxation , subluxation and residual deformity and other complications are relatively common after treatment. The X-ray appears great acetabular index and wide medial gap , small central-edge angle. As there is no effective methods for treating such complications , investigators conducted this trial to find and prove optimal intervention time and treatment programs.
Between January 1 2006 and December 31 2013, at our department 324 patients underwent hemiarthroplasty (HA) for displaced femoral-neck fracture with a bipolar prosthesis (Variokopf, Link®, Germany) by the use of the posteriolateral approach. Patients with pathological fractures and HA performed with direct lateral approach were excluded. A retrospective cohort study were conducted. Patients with prosthetic dislocation formed one group and patients without dislocation formed the control group. As standard, post surgery radiographs (anteroposterior and lateral) were taken. After these were performed patient started weight bearing as soon as possible. Clinical data regarding patient demographics, details of the surgical procedure and the medical comorbidities were collected by the use of patient and operative records. Radiological analysis with position evaluation was performed using the post surgery radiographs by measuring Wiberg angle, inequality of leg length and femoral offset of the prostheses and compared with non-operated hip joint using the post surgery x-ray images. Our hypothesis were that patients with single- or recurrent dislocations had shortened postoperative leg length, decreased femoral offsed and a Wiberg angle less than 25 degrees.
Leg length discrepancies following total hip arthroplasty have been associated with nerve palsies, gait abnormalities, and lower back pain. Leg length discrepancies are related to poorer functional outcomes and patient dissatisfaction. Failure to restore femoral offset following total hip arthroplasty has been linked to decreased range of motion and abductor muscle strength, impingement, limping, higher dislocation rates, increased polyethylene wear, and loosening of implants. Computer navigation has shown to improve the accuracy of leg length and hip offset during total hip arthroplasty. The investigators research objective is to prove the accuracy of the Intellijoint HIP™ system for determining leg length and hip offset. The investigators hypothesis was that Intellijoint HIP™, an imageless intraoperative intelligent instrument, could improve the accuracy of leg length and hip offset during primary total hip arthroplasty. The investigators plan to study this hypothesis in humans by comparing the leg length and hip offset discrepancies produced with Intellijoint HIP™ to the standard at the investigators institution, which is a pin and outrigger system.
This project will be a multi-center, prospective longitudinal cohort for all patients undergoing primary shoulder instability surgery, excluding isolated SLAP repairs. We will be looking for risk factors for recurrent instability, revision surgery, and poor outcomes. Patients will be asked to complete the RAND-36, ASES, Shoulder Activity, EQ-5D and WOSI outcome measures, as well as demographic and socioeconomic information. Surgeons will complete a form after surgery with information on radiographic findings, physical exam, surgical findings, and the repair. Patients will wear a sling post-operatively, and follow standardized rehabilitation protocols, including physical therapy. Patients will be sent outcome questionnaires at 2, 6, 10, and 20 years after surgery.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the performance and reliability of Tornier "Dual Mobility Cup" used during primary total hip replacement or hip replacement revision surgery at least 24 months post-insertion.
