NCT ID: NCT06046235 Not yet recruiting - Haemophilia Clinical Trials

Virtual Evaluations of Joint Health Using Wearable Sensors in Persons With Haemophilia (VESPA)

VESPA
Start date: May 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Recent technological innovations have enabled the creation of portable and easy-to-wear sensors with incredible potential to alter the clinical practice of rehabilitation. Using wearable sensors we have gathered preliminary data in the clinical setting measuring walking ability and function. Preliminary data shows that these wearable sensors can detect improvements in walking ability and function after a 12-week physiotherapy exercise programme in boys with haemophilia. In this proposal, we want to test the use of these wearable sensors in the patient's home to remotely monitor joint health and the effects of rehabilitation for people with haemophilia. We expect that wearable sensor technology is an efficient and promising tool to evaluate and monitor joint health and pain in persons with haemophilia. If usable in the home setting, the wearable sensors have the potential to provide immediate real-time feedback on joint health and rehabilitation goals to the patient and their haemophilia care team without the patient having to leave their home. The project will also support educational activities with researchers and patients to ensure that the use of this new type of rehabilitation will be fully integrated with their future treatment and management.

Self-myofascial Release With Foam Roller in Patients With Hemophilic Knee Arthropathy

Start date: October 26, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: Hemophilic ankle arthropathy is manifested by degenerative functional alterations (deficit of muscular strength, mobility and proprioception) (intra-articular alterations) and chronic pain. Myofascial release techniques are used to treat soft tissue adhesions, relieve pain, and reduce tissue sensitivity. Design. A randomized clinical trial. Directed: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a myofascial self-release protocol with Foam Roller applied in patients with hemophilic knee arthropathy. Patients: 58 patients with knee arthropathy will be recruited for inclusion in the study. The patients will be recruited in 5 centers, from different regions of Spain. Intervention: Each session will last approximately 15 minutes, with five physical therapy sessions per week over a period of 8 weeks. Patients will be evaluated at the beginning of the study, after the intervention and after a follow-up period of 2 months. The treatment program includes 11 exercises to be administered bilaterally. A mobile application will be developed where each patient can observe the exercises to be performed. Measurement instruments and study variables: digital goniometer (ankle range of motion); visual analog scale and pressure algometer (joint pain); Hemophilia Joint Health Score (Joint Condition); dynamometer evaluation (muscle strength); 6-minute walk test (lower extremity functionality); Mobile device (activity log); Finger floor test (muscle flexibility). At the same time, the study will make it possible to determine the joint bleeding caused by the applied physiotherapy treatment. Expected results: demonstrate the safety of this physiotherapy technique in patients with hemophilia. Likewise, an improvement in ankle pain, function and joint movement is expected.

NCT ID: NCT04586101 Completed - Clinical trials for Sports Physical Therapy

iT-based Sports Therapy Application in Haemophilia

iT-BaSTAH
Start date: January 31, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Haemophilia is often associated with chronic pain, functional restrictions and negative consequences regarding the individual physical performance, especially on basic motoric skills, activities of daily life and quality of life. Caused by high benefits, physical activity is a fixed component and recommendation in the guidelines for the management of haemophilia. Several studies showed that goal-directed physical activity is feasible for patients with haemophilia (PwH) without any complications or bleeding episodes. Nevertheless, there are difficulties in the implementation of supervised sports therapy for PwH regarding local distributions and uncertainties concerning correct exercise execution on patients´ side and in the monitoring and adequate training regulation from long distances on the therapeutic side. Aim of this project is a patient-related and participative development and pre-evaluation of a mobile application to generate an online-guided, individualized home training for PwH, followed by pre-evaluation in terms of a twelve weeks interventional phase. The intention of this project is to show, that a mobile device is an appropriate way to increase physical activity of PwH. Due to the development of an innovative trainings application, adapted to the needs of PwH, a larger number of patients should be reached and supported later on in participating on supervised physical exercise to improve the individual physical performance and therefore the quality of life. Additionally, with an individualized exercise program also adapted to the specific interests, needs and physical conditions, PwH at any age can be addressed. Furthermore, in cooperation with the patient, the medical staff will get systematic information of patients´ exercise activities to generate optimal factor and overall treatment patterns. In addition, on the basis of the mobile device PwH will be able to comprehend their individual exercise performance and to get an overview of the individual trainings progress and improvements of physical performance with the purpose to enhance the processes of self-motivation. Detailed instructions and information of exercise execution, need of exercise and physical adaptions to be achieved, will minimize complications and support patients´ self-confident for participating on exercise.
