Filter by:This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of OZURDEX in patients with Diabetic Macular Edema when used in a real world setting in Spain and Portugal.
Postoperative edema is a common condition affecting wound healing and function. Traditionally, manual lymphatic drainage and compressive bandages have been employed to reduce swelling. Kinesiotaping might be an alternative approach. To analyse the efficacy, cost-effectiveness, satisfaction, quality of life, functional outcome and and morbidity of the use of kinesiotape for the treatment of postoperative edema after knee replacement surgery, compared to standard manual lymphatic drainage with compression (i.e. compressive stockings or bandages) or sham taping.
Objective 1. To evaluate the technique of percutaneous grafting with bone substitute in the knee as to its applicability and technical feasibility. 2. Evaluate the results regarding functional improvement and prevention of the evolution of joint cartilage degeneration. Material and methods Twenty patients from the Knee Group clinic who meet the criteria will be selected. Magnetic resonance imaging will be analyzed on the PACS server. Through the resonance will be performed evaluation of the size of the bone edema in volume and its proportion in relation to the size of the affected condyle or tibial plateau and the cartilage of the femoro-tibial joint. The lesions will then be mapped in the coronal and sagittal plane. Radiographs will be taken in antero-posterior, profile, Rosenberg knee and lower limb views. Evaluation of the patients will be performed by the visual analog pain scale and by the KOOS, IKDC and SF-36v1 indices. Description of Surgical Technique After the mapping the patient will be submitted to the procedure. The procedure consists in the application of a bone substitute based on injectable calcium phosphate in the area of bone edema previously mapped with the aid of radioscopy to guide. After confirming the proper positioning of the guidewire, a trephine is introduced through which the product will be injected. GRAFTYS HBS® (Graftys, Aix en Provence, France) will be used. The procedures will be performed in a surgical center, with conventional antisepsis and asepsis techniques and under spinal anesthesia. The patient will be hospitalized and must be discharged on the first postoperative day. After the procedure the patients will be under partial load as tolerated for two weeks with free range of motion and will start physiotherapy after 2 weeks of the procedure. During hospitalization the patient will receive analgesia with intravenous Dipirone 1g every 6 hours associated with Tramadol 100mg intravenously every 8 hours if severe pain. After discharge the patient will receive analgesia with dipyrone 1g orally every 6 hours associated with Tramadol 100mg orally every 8 hours if severe pain, and Tramadol used by the patient was quantified. Patients will then be re-evaluated at 1, 3, 12, 24 and 48 weeks with the same previous criteria and at 12 months new MRI with the same previous protocol will be performed.
The primary objectives of this study were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LKA651 in patients with macular edema from diabetic macular edema (DME),
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of brolucizumab vs. aflibercept in the treatment of patients with visual impairment due to diabetic macular edema (DME).
The assessment consists in comparing corticoids injection versus placebo in surgery of lower limb fractures The aim of study is to assess (state cutaneous, efficacy, safety) corticoids injection on a prospective, randomized analysis
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on soft tissue healing and postoperative side effects following third molar surgery. This study was designed on 60 patients as a randomized single-blind clinical trial. The predictor variable was the implementation of CGF fibrin matrix, which was categorized as CGF and non-CGF. The primary outcome variable of the study was the healing of soft tissue around the extraction socket. The secondary outcome variables were pain, swelling and trismus. Data were analyzed using the non-parametric Brunner and Langer model. Statistical significance was set at P < .001.
This study will take place in China to evaluate the safety and efficacy of OZURDEX implant 700 μg in the treatment of macular edema due to retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in patients who have never received treatment for RVO.
This is a Phase 2b, rollover, long-term study to evaluate the safety and duration of efficacy of EN3835 in the treatment of women with EFP. Subjects who participated in and completed studies EN3835-201 and EN3835-202 and had composite improvement of at least 2 levels on both the CR-PCSS and PR-PCSS in study EN3835-201 will be eligible for this study.
A retrospective, non-interventional, observational, multi-center, drug utilization study to be conducted in adult participants with visual impairment due to DME treated with Ozurdex implants in Germany and Switzerland from 1 January 2015 to 1 September 2017.
