Filter by:To check the influence of injected platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the healing of medial retinaculum and the redaction in recurrent dislocation of the patella.
The purpose of this study is to determine a surgical technique is effective in the treatment of acute dorsal trans-scaphoid perilunate dislocations.
The study looks at treatments for reversing chronic shoulder subluxation after a stroke. It compares electrical stimulation with surface electrodes (stimulation through the skin) with intra-muscular stimulation (from inside the muscle)using an implanted micro-stimulator (BION). Subjects are put either in a surface stimulation or a BION® group. In the BION® group, two BION®s are implanted in the shoulder, the medial deltoid and supraspinatus muscles. Treatment consists of a baseline of 6 weeks, and 6 weeks of therapy, consisting of 2 sessions per day for 10 to 30 minutes each time. This is followed by 6 weeks without therapy. If testing shows that after 6 weeks of therapy there is no reversal of subluxation, more intense therapy is carried out for another 6 weeks. Treatment is similar in the surface electrode group, but surface electrodes deliver the stimulation instead of BION®s. A total of 30 subjects is expected to complete the study.
The purpose of this project is to evaluate the effect of the Compass™ Universal Hinge external fixator on the outcome of patients following acute dislocation of the knee
The purpose of this study is to help determine if a static stretching brace in addition to physical therapy decreases the incidence of secondary operations, increases range of motion, and individual patient function.
The objective of this prospective, randomized cohort study was to evaluate the clinical results between operative and nonoperative treatment of primary patellar dislocation.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of ultrasound in diagnosing the presence or absence of extremity fractures or dislocations. Hypothesis: Can ultrasound be used as an accurate and effective method for determining the presence or absence of extremity fractures or dislocations? Is there a difference in amount of pain experienced prior to and after the ultrasound?
For reduction of dislocated shoulder, sedation with propofol and remifentanil should give satisfactory operating conditions and pain relief, and significantly reduce the time to full recovery, compared with morphine and midazolam
The activation of the knee extensors in adults after patella dislocation. The kneecap can dislocate due to an accident or also only due to an interior turn in the stretched knee joint out of its sliding bearing. E. Arendt (Arendt 2002) wrote an overview work, in which possible causes and working methods to the patella dislocation are discussed. Despite almost one hundred quotations the authors are not able find the causes and the possible treatment concepts. The study will examined healthy adults (25 female and 25 men) and 25 patients with patella dislocation by a routine applied clinical gait analysis and surface EMG (after the European SENIAM guidelines) iin the Laboratory for Gait Analysis Basel of the Children's University Hospital Basel. The combination of gait analysis and the surface EMG with Wavelet analysis may objectify possible reasons for a patella dislocation
The purpose of this study is to compare arthroscopic and open shoulder stabilization procedures by measuring the disease-specific quality of life outcome in patients with traumatic unidirectional anterior instability of the shoulder at 2 and 5 years. Hypothesis: There is no difference in disease-specific quality of life outcomes in patients with traumatic unidirectional anterior shoulder instability, undergoing an arthroscopic versus an open stabilization procedure.
