Filter by:The purpose of the study: Evaluation of the clinical efficacy and safety of the use of collagen matrix/membrane in the surgical treatment of the consequences of injuries and diseases of the musculoskeletal system (anterior cruciate ligament tears, rigid first toe) by using IKDC, KOOS, ACLOAS, VAS, AOFAS, SF-36 scales
The clinical study involves the routine treatment of skeletally mature patients who have been diagnosed with hallux rigidus (stiffness of the first metatarso-phalangeal joint in the foot due to arthritis and degeneration of cartilage). It follows standard practice surgery to treat this condition. This type of degenerative arthritis affects the joint of the big toe (hallux) which is attached to the foot. Taking part in this research will involve collecting data of the surgery to remove damaged cartilage and fix the two bones together with screws and a plate (called the CoLink® PCR MTP Plate).
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.
The most important pivot of the sagittal plane is in the first metatarsophalangeal joint, which is usually restricted or blocked as a result of alterations in the rest of the planes or as the main cause of secondary compensations.
A randomised, controlled trial will be performed by allocating 40 years or older patients with symptomatic hallux rigidus to arthrodesis or watchful waiting group in a ratio of 1:1. Our primary outcome will be pain during walking, assessed by the 0-10 Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at one year after randomisation. Our secondary outcomes will be pain in rest (NRS), physical function (MOXFQ), patient satisfaction in terms of Patient-accepted Symptom State (PASS), health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-5L), activity level (The Foot and Ankle Ability Measure Sports subscale), use of analgesics or orthoses and rate of complications. Our null hypothesis is that there will be no difference between arthrodesis and watchful waiting in treatment of hallux rigidus. Our primary analysis will be done using intention-to-treat principle.
Patients listed for hallux valgus/hallux rigidus correction surgery will be randomised to one of two treatment groups. Group 1 (standard care) will have the calf tourniquet released after wound closure. Group 2 will have the tourniquet removed five minutes before wound closure. Participants will have the volume of their operated foot measured pre-operatively and post-operatively at six weeks and three months.
The investigators sought to determine whether bioabsorbable cannulated screws could perform as well as titanium cannulated screws in the Lapidus procedure and MTP1-joint arthorodesis in anatomical models and clinical series of the foot.
The aim of this prospective, case series is to evaluate the surgical treatment of painful and disabling osteoarthrosis in the MTP-I joint by insertion of an Artelon MTP Spacer.
