NCT ID: NCT06407739 Not yet recruiting - Club Foot Clinical Trials

Three Phase Physical Therapy in Children With Relapsed Club Foot After Ponseti Treatment

Start date: May 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Clubfoot, or congenital Talipes Equinovarus (CTEV), is a condition where a baby is born with one or both feet twisted inward and downward due to abnormal fetal foot development. Its estimated global prevalence is 1 in 1,000 live births, varying across populations. Relapsed clubfoot, a recurrence after initial correction, may occur due to incomplete treatment, noncompliance, muscle imbalance, or natural growth. Treatment involves surgical and non-surgical interventions, including soft tissue releases, osteotomies, and external fixation devices. The Ponseti method, a non-surgical approach, is commonly used in infants, with post-treatment physiotherapy focusing on three phases to optimize foot function. This holistic approach aims to achieve the best long-term outcomes for children with clubfoot. This 6-month randomized clinical trial at PSRD Hospital aims to assess the effectiveness of three-phase physical therapy versus conventional physiotherapy in treating clubfoot. With a sample size of 19 participants and a 10% attrition rate, the study involves children aged 3-10 previously treated with the Ponseti method. Data collection includes, one-leg standing and sit-to stand tests, Pirani score and the Oxford Ankle Foot Questionnaire. The three-phase therapy consists of joint mobilization, kinesio taping, and functional exercises over three months, with a focus on improving balance and proprioception.

Study type: Interventional

Background: The aim of this study was to compare the knee and ankle muscle architecture and plantar pressure distribution differences in knee osteoarthritis (OA) women with healthy women. Methods: Fifty women with knee OA (Mean age=52.11±4.96 years, mean BMI=30.94±4.23 kg/m2) and fifty healthy women (Mean age= 50.93±3.78 years, mean BMI=29.06±4.82 kg/m2) were included in the study. Ultrasonography was used to evaluate Rectus Femoris (RF), Vastus Medialis (VM), Vastus Lateralis (VL), Peroneus Longus (PL), Tibialis Anterior (TA), and Medial Gastrocnemius (MG) muscle thickness, pennation angle, fascicle length, and fat thickness. The plantar pressure distribution was evaluated using the Digital Biometry Scanning System and software (DIASU, Italy).

NCT ID: NCT06308380 Recruiting - Contracture Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Rehabilitation Protocol in Patients With Shortened Posterior Leg Muscles

EREPSOLM
Start date: March 10, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical study is to develop a specialized rehabilitation exercise protocol designed for patients diagnosed with foot pathologies and calf muscle shortening, regardless of their choice to undergo minimally invasive ultrasound-guided surgery. The primary focus is to assess disparities in outcomes, particularly in the recovery of ankle mobility degrees. Additionally, for patients opting for minimally invasive ultrasound-guided surgery, the study aims to evaluate the resumption of both sporting activities and daily routines using the aforementioned specific rehabilitation protocol. The primary questions this study aims to answer are: - How does the proposed rehabilitation protocol impact ankle mobility recovery for patients with foot pathologies and calf muscle shortening? - What are the differences observed in the return to sporting activities and daily life among patients undergoing minimally invasive ultrasound-guided surgery, following the prescribed protocol? Participants enrolled in this study will be engaged in: Undertaking the specified rehabilitation exercises tailored for foot pathologies and calf muscle shortening. Those opting for minimally invasive ultrasound-guided surgery will follow the same rehabilitation protocol post-surgery to assess its impact on their return to normal activities. If there exists a comparison group: Researchers will compare participants who undergo minimally invasive ultrasound-guided surgery against those who choose other treatment options to discern any differential effects on ankle mobility recovery and resumption of activities.

NCT ID: NCT06258499 Withdrawn - Foot Deformities Clinical Trials

Bone Healing Accelerant (BHA) Versus Autologous Bone Grafting (ABG) for Hindfoot or Ankle Arthrodesis

Start date: March 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study is being conducted to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Bone Healing Accelerant (BHA) product when applied to the joint space of the ankle of hindfoot (the section of the foot immediately below the ankle joint) during fusion surgery. It is hypothesized that by 6 months, the number of subjects with successful bone fusion will be greater in the BHA-treated group compared to subjects treated with standard of care alone.

NCT ID: NCT06238791 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Venous Insufficiency

Plantar Pressure Analysis and Foot Biomechanics in Lipedema and Chronic Venous Disease

Start date: October 5, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Chronic venous disease (CVD) are common vascular pathology characterized by a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations occurring with symptoms and/or signs that vary in type and severity. The pathophysiological mechanisms of CVD start from the development of venous hypertension, leading to endothelial dysfunction and venous wall dilatation. Lipedema is subcutaneous adipose tissue disorder characterized by enlargement of both lower extremities. Previous studies showed that foot deformities such as pes planus or cavus are at a high prevalence in CVD patients, and the authors indicated that foot disorders are an important risk factor that negatively affects venous disease. To the best of our knowledge, there is only one study investigating plantar arch abnormalities in lipedema patients based on clinical observation. Therefore, the study aimed to investigate plantar foot distribution and foot deformity in patients with CVD and lipedema.

NCT ID: NCT05814029 Completed - Clinical trials for Dorsiflexion Deformity of Foot

Different Mobilization Techniques on Balance, Gait, Jumping and Foot Plantar Pressure

Start date: November 30, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Adequate ankle dorsiflexion range of motion is important for normal performance of functional activities such as walking, running and climbing stairs. It is important to gain the ankle dorsiflexion range of motion, which affects the functional activities and sports associated with squats and lunges. Stretching and manual therapy are the most frequently used applications to gain range of motion. Manual therapy has been proposed as a possible treatment to improve mobility and restore arthrokinematics of joints. Movement mobilization, which is a manual therapy method, is an active joint mobilization concept. Talocrural mobilization with the movement technique is an extension of traditional joint mobilizations and allows the patient to engage in therapy in an active, partial weight-bearing lunge position. There are variations of this technique that can be applied by the clinician or by the individual himself. Our aim in this study is to compare the effects of movement and mobilization applications, which can be applied by the clinician or by the individual himself, on balance, gait, jumping and plantar pressure. Healthy asymptomatic individuals between the ages of 18-35 whose active ankle dorsiflexion range of motion as measured by the weight-bearing lunge test in the dominant extremity is below 45˚ will be included in the study. According to the inclusion criteria, the individuals to be included in the study will be randomly divided into three groups. Mobilization technique by the clinician will be applied to one group, and the mobilization technique by the individual himself will be applied to another group. The third group will be the control group. Evaluations will be made before and after mobilization applications. Balance will be evaluated with Y balance test, gait and jump will be evaluated with G-Walk, and plantar pressure will be evaluated with pedobarography device.
