NCT ID: NCT02022267 Completed - Clubfoot Clinical Trials

Gait Analysis in Ponseti Clubfoot

Start date: October 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Patients with clubfoot treated with the Ponseti method from a prospective database are evaluated using gait analysis including a foot model and a disease specific instrument score and compared to a group of healthy children.

NCT ID: NCT01767662 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Talipes Calcaneovalgus

Effectiveness of Parents' Manipulation in Newborn With Talipes Calcaneus

Start date: May 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine effectiveness of parents' manipulation in newborn with talipes calcaneovalgus over observation group.

NCT ID: NCT01551264 Completed - Isolated Clubfoot Clinical Trials

Duration of Brace Wear in Clubfoot Treatment - A Prospective Randomized Trial

FAB24
Start date: May 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this multi-center, randomized, controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a 2 year versus 4 year bracing protocol in preventing isolated clubfoot recurrence within the first year post-treatment, and to evaluate factors associated with recurrence in isolated clubfoot.

NCT ID: NCT01481324 Completed - Clubfoot Clinical Trials

Outcomes of Compliance With Brace Wear in Clubfoot

Start date: October 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

It has been shown that compliance with brace wear can significantly improve the treatment outcome of idiopathic clubfoot deformities. Noncompliance rates have been estimated to be around 30-41% with initial orthosis wear after successful treatment with serial castings. These studies have depended on family logs and not objective data. With the development of a monitoring device, this study hopes to examine: (1) actual patient compliance, (2) comparisons of actual wear time and assumed wear time and (3) the relationship of patient wear with clinical outcomes. Hypothesis: Actual patient compliance in foot abduction orthoses (FAO) wear is less than self-reported compliance and noncompliance is correlated to future surgeries.

NCT ID: NCT01382628 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetic Foot Ulcers

Determination of the Pathophysicologic Collagen Changes in the Diabetic Achilles Tendon

Start date: May 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a pilot study examining tendon collagen, collagen cross-linking, and markers of tendon extracellular matrix metabolism in the Achilles tendon of diabetic patients with ulcerations and amputations of the lower extremity.

NCT ID: NCT01265238 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Neuro-orthopaedic Surgery in the Treatment of the Spastic Equinovarus Foot

Start date: December 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Spastic equinovarus foot (SEF) is a major cause of disability in stroke patients. Treatments may include physical therapy, orthosis, botulinum toxin (BTX) injections, selective tibial neurotomy and tendon lengthening and/or transfer. Until now, no study has been conducted to assess the result of neuro-orthopaedic surgery in the treatment of SEF. The aim of this study is to evaluate the benefit of neuro-orthopaedic surgery (selective neurotomy and/or Achilles tendon lengthening and/or tibialis anterior transfer) in case of SEF according to the 3 domains of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF)of the World Health organisation (WHO)

NCT ID: NCT01238484 Terminated - Diabetes Mellitus Clinical Trials

Ankle Equinus Contracture Treated With Dynamic Splinting

Start date: August 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT01088828 Completed - Clubfoot Clinical Trials

Exploring the Causes of Clubfoot Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging, MRI

Start date: May 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to: 1. compare structural variations observed in the calf and foot of the clubfoot mouse model(pma)with human clubfoot patients antenatally and postnatally; 2. identify features that might be used in future large scale studies to delineate a subtype of human clubfoot associated with lack of response to standard 'Ponseti' manipulation treatments.

NCT ID: NCT01067651 Completed - Clubfoot Clinical Trials

Comparison of Casting Materials for the Treatment of Clubfoot Using the Ponseti Method

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of cast material on correction of congenital idiopathic clubfeet using the Ponseti method.

NCT ID: NCT00825097 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Efficacy Study of Selective Tibial Neurotomy in the Treatment of the Spastic Equinovarus Foot Among Adult Hemiplegic Patients

Neurotomy
Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Spastic equinovarus foot (SEF) is a major cause of disability in stroke patients. Treatments may include physical therapy, orthosis, botulinum toxin (BTX) injections and selective neurotomy. Several RCT placebo-controlled studies have demonstrated improvement in spasticity, in pain and in active ankle dorsiflexion after BTX injections. Unfortunately, BTX is an expensive treatment and its effects last about three months. Selective neurotomy consists in a partial section of the motor nerve innervating spastic muscles responsible for the SEF, leading to a permanent treatment of the SEF. Until now, neurotomy has only been assessed by observational case-report studies and has never been submitted to a RCT. The aim of our study is to evaluate the benefits of selective tibial neurotomy in case of SEF according to the 3 domains of the ICF, by comparing it with BTX injections, among a prospective, randomized, controlled single blind study: it would allow to promote a permanent and cost-effective treatment in case of SEF.
