NCT ID: NCT05763901 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Scoliosis Idiopathic

IMU-based Assessment of Motor Control in a Population of Young Subjects With Paramorphisms and Dysmorphisms

MOTOR-CHILD
Start date: April 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

While various complex pathologies of the developmental age, such as Infantile Cerebral Palsy or Neuromuscular Diseases, are notoriously considered causes of alteration of locomotor development, it is scarcely known whether conditions much more frequent in the pediatric population, the so-called "Paramorphisms or Dysmorphisms", may be associated with more or less noticeable changes in locomotor development. On a few studies, flat feet and hyperlaxity has been correlated with a motor control delay or poorer motor performance, based on complex clinical tests or on stereophotogrammetry movement analysis. Although promising, these preliminary studies, in addition to not providing information on the possible influence of other paramorphisms, such as varus and valgus of the knees, do not provide conclusive indications. The aim of this study is to investigate, through clinical tests and wearable inertial units, the motor control of a pediatric population affected by Paramorphisms or Dysmorphisms and to compare them with a population of healthy controls, matched by age, taken from the recently developed control data set from Bisi and Stagni.

NCT ID: NCT01641354 Active, not recruiting - Genu Valgus Clinical Trials

Comparison of Two Surgical Techniques to Treat Knock Knees in Children

Start date: May 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Knock knees or genu valgus necessitates in some children corrective surgery with partial closure of the growth plate at level of the knee.

NCT ID: NCT01528553 Active, not recruiting - Deformity Clinical Trials

Stapling Versus 8plate for Correction of Genu Valgus

Start date: August 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In children with excessive knock knees it may be necessary to use guided growth (small surgical procedure) so the child outgrows the condition before maturity. A new implant is on the market and the investigators compare this implant (8plate) with the old technique (staples) in a randomised setup. The hypothesis is that the 8plate provides a faster correction rate and that this treatment is superior to stapling.
