Filter by:HV correction surgery using SERI appear to sufficiently reduce the severity of HV deformity in all radiological measurements (HVA, IMA, DMAA) and the correction of subluxation of the first MTP joint and the sesamoids. SERI technique is an easy, inexpensive, less invasive, more cosmetic, with shorter operative time and with minimal complication rates. To our knowledge, there is no report regarding HV treatment using SERI from Saudi Arabia or in any part of the Middle East. Therefore, this study conducted to determine the radiological measurements done preoperatively and compare the measurements done at one year postoperatively, recording the complication happened and measuring the cost effectiveness of such procedure.
Foot surgery is a painful surgery that is usually scheduled in outpatients. A good management of analgesia is the crucial point. Regional anesthesia (RA) is the gold standard, that provides good anesthesia and a long duration of analgesia. The sciatic nerve block (or its branches) is the most adapted analgesic technique. Limitation of proximal sciatic block is the motor block of the ankle and results in the impossibility, for the patient, to walk during the early post-operative period. Distal block of the sciatic nerve (tibial and fibular nerve blocks), at the level of the ankle, has been proposed to maintain the mobility of the ankle, to make deambulation with crutches easier. Nevertheless, the lack of sensibility of the heel remains a limitation for early walking, even with adapted shoes (ie : Barouk). A specific anesthesia of the distal part of the foot, respecting the heel, could be the best option to provide an early deambulation and a suitable analgesia. Ultrasound identification and specific anesthesia of the branches supplying the distal part of the foot (medial and lateral plantar nerves) could meet this dual objective : good anesthesia and suitable analgesia for early deambulation. This study is a feasibility study of a specific block of the plantar branches of the tibial nerve, to preserve the sensibility of the heel, in case of foot surgery. The safety of the procedure will be assessed according to the rate of postoperative dysesthesia.
Postoperative pain is usually treated with opioids that have undesirable and sometimes dangerous side effects (e.g., vomiting and respiratory depression)-and yet over 80% of patients still experience inadequate pain relief. A novel, non-pharmacologic analgesic technique-percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS)- holds extraordinary potential to greatly reduce or obviate opioid requirements and concurrently improve analgesia following painful surgery. This technique involves inserting an insulated electric lead adjacent to a target nerve through a needle prior to surgery using ultrasound guidance. Following surgery, a tiny electric current is delivered to the nerve resulting in potent pain control without any cognitive or adverse systemic side effects whatsoever. The electrical pulse generator (stimulator) is so small it is simply affixed to the patient's skin. The leads are already cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration to treat acute (postoperative) pain for up to 60 days; and, since percutaneous PNS may be provided on an outpatient basis, the technique holds the promise of providing potent analgesia outlasting the pain of surgery-in other words, the possibility of a painless, opioid-free recovery following surgery. The current project is a multicenter, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm clinical pilot study to (1) determine the feasibility and optimize the protocol of a planned definitive clinical trial; and (2) estimate the treatment effect of percutaneous PNS on pain and opioid consumption following moderate-to-severely painful ambulatory surgery compared with usual and customary opioid-based analgesia. This will allow determination of the required sample size for a subsequent definitive multicenter clinical trial. Combined, the pilot study and definitive trial have a strong potential to dramatically reduce or obviate postoperative opioid requirements and their resultant negative effects on both individuals and society; while concurrently improving analgesia, increasing the ability to function in daily life, decreasing the risk of transition from acute to chronic pain, and improving quality of life.
The effectiveness of conservative treatment of hallux valgus deformity has not been sufficiently explored yet. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the toe-spread-out exercise on the amplitude and frequency pattern in a surface electromyographic examination in patients with hallux valgus and in people without the deformity. An additional objective is the assessment of nerve conduction in an electroneurography and the assessment of range of motion in a clinical examination.
Background: Recent studies showed the efficiency of several techniques of anesthesia in foot surgery. The new mini-invasive surgical approaches should require less analgesia and rapid motor recovery after surgery. The aim of this study was the evaluation of two different techniques on postoperative analgesia and motor recovery after hallux valgus correction in one-day surgery patients.
Investigate the optimal timing for weight bearing after Hallux Valgus surgery. Hypothesis: Early weight bearing does not affect outcome after the Endoscopic Distal Soft Tissue Procedure for Hallux Valgus Correction.
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose, sequential-group Phase 1 study. The study will be conducted utilizing a cohort design, with sequential groups of 8 subjects. Within each dose cohort, 6 subjects will be randomized to active, and 2 will be randomized to placebo.
Postoperative analgesia for hallux valgus surgery (bunionectomy) is inconsistent and may even result in rebound pain when the (ankle) blocks wear off. It is hypothesized that the mixture of bupivacaine and liposome bupivacaine increases the extent and duration of postoperative analgesia and decreases opioid consumption as compared to bupivacaine alone or to general anesthesia.
The study is a prospective randomized study about hallux valgus surgery. The investigator try to assess if the fixation of percutaneous Akin osteotomy with a cannulated screw have an incidence in the first ray mobility since the two technics ( fixation and no-fixation) are described and practiced, and since the stiffness of the first metatarso-phalangeal joint is determinant in the result of this functional surgery.
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) represents one of the most innovative surgical treatments of Hallux Valgus (HV). However, long-term outcomes still remain a matter of discussion within the orthopaedic community. The purpose of this longitudinal prospective study was to evaluate radiographic and functional outcomes in patients with mild-to-severe HV who underwent Reverdin-Isham and Akin percutaneous osteotomy, following exostosectomy and lateral release.
