Filter by:The lower extremity consists of segments that can be affected by the relative position of each other. Deviation of one segment from its normal alignment in the lower extremity also affects the alignment of other segments. The hip joint can affect the frontal plane alignment from proximal to distal, while the foot and ankle complex can also affect it from distal to proximal. Increased subtalar joint pronation in the kinetic chain from distal to proximal; is associated with decreased dorsiflexion angle and increased frontal plane projection angle. It has been shown that ankle dorsiflexion limitation causes changes in the biomechanics and kinematics of landing after jumping, but no study examining the effect of foot pronation on jump tests has been found in the literature. Since the foot is located at the most distal point and acts as a support base for the kinematic chain, the smallest dynamic change in the foot affects the balance of the whole body. Due to foot pronation, changes in the sole contact surface may make it difficult for the foot to adapt to the ground, balance and postural stabilization may be adversely affected, and an increase in the workload of the muscles around the joint may be observed. In another study, it is mentioned that there is limited evidence about the effect of foot posture on postural stability. Although there are studies in the literature examining the effects of subtalar joint pronation on lower extremity alignment and postural stability, studies need to examine the effects of different subtalar joint pronation amounts on lower extremity alignment, jumping performance, and postural stability. Our study will contribute to the literature with this aspect.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the monitoring using a sensor in patients who have undergone forefoot surgery, during the first 7 post-operative days. The monitoring tool has a Global Positioning System (GPS) beacon, a 3-axis accelerometer and a temperature sensor, as well as an "emergency call" button. The main objective it aims to answer are: - to evaluate the feasibility of post-operative monitoring using this tool - to evaluate the reliability of the tool The investigators hope to determine if using this tool can be able to provide patients a "connected" personalized real-time monitoring for follow-up.
Effect of Perineural Dexamethasone on the duration of popliteal nerve block for Anesthesia After Pediatric ankle/foot surgery.
The study in question is a post market clinical follow up (PMCF) study to evaluate the safety and performance of bioabsorbable headless compression screw Inion CompressOn in selected fracture, osteotomy and arthrodeses operations of the foot and ankle. The study recruits 125 adult patients who meet the acceptance criteria. The follow-up time for each study patient is 4 years. The study is a single center single group study which is conducted in Tampere University Hospital (TAYS) in Finland. The main focus of the study in terms of performance is to evaluate the bone healing/ossification of operated areas. The main focus of the study in terms of safety is to evaluate the occurrence of adverse events and required revision surgeries that are or might be related to the study device.
