Filter by:Osteo introducer system is the instruments used in minimal invasive THA. This study will compare the minimal invasive THA using the osteo introducer system and THA using common instruments, to show the non-inferiority of osteo introducer system in safety and efficacy of THA surgery.
The LCS Complete Cementless Knee by DePuy Synthes is a rotating platform knee replacement with a good clinical track record and good survival rates. The cementless ATTUNE Cruciate Sacrificing (CS) Rotating Platform Knee by DePuy Synthes has been designed to provide better range of motion and address the unstable feeling some patients experience during everyday activities, such as stair descent and bending. It is expected that the cementless ATTUNE Rotating Platform Knee will have regulatory approval early 2016. Patient inclusion will start after regular approval has been obtained. The objective of this study is to accurately assess and compare migration, clinical and radiological outcome and patient reported outcomes (PROMS) of two TKR prostheses: the Cementless ATTUNE Rotating Platform Cruciate Sacrificing Knee System and the LCS Complete Cementless Cruciate Sacrificing Knee System (rotating platform design), both by DePuy Synthes, Warsaw, Indiana, USA. In this single-blind, randomized non-inferiority trial, 32 patients with the ATTUNE Knee System and 32 patients with LCS Knee System will be included. The study population will consist of patients with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the knee scheduled for TKR surgery at the Department of Orthopaedics, Spaarne Gasthuis, Hoofddorp, The Netherlands. Annually 300 TKA procedures are performed in this department, of which about 95% is Osteo Arthritis (OA). The investigator anticipates that inclusion can be accomplished within a 1 year period and that the total study duration is 3 years. Main study parameters/endpoints are: - Migration, measured by means of RSA. - Patient Reported Outcome Measures by means of questionnaires.
Adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction cells (SVFs) include regenerative cell populations (hematopoietic cells, pericytes, endothelial cells and progenitors, stromal/stem cells) and thus are potentially important as new therapeutic tools for the repair and regeneration of acute and chronically damaged tissues. The general objective of this study is to evaluate safety and clinical efficacy of a single intra-articular injection of freshly isolated auto-SVFs for the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). This study uses autologous adipose-derived SVFs, as therapeutic agent and intra-articular administration, as a mode of delivery. Expected clinical effects: a treatment reduces pain, increases function and reduces stiffness in the knees of osteoarthritic subjects.
Sponsor is conducting this post-market study to evaluate the clinical outcome and femoral bone mineral density (BMD) changes associated with the PROFEMUR® PRESERVE hip stem when used as indicated for primary total hip arthroplasty in patients with osteoarthritis of the hip joint.
MicroPort Orthopedics (MPO) is conducting this study to build upon the results of a previous study which showed the Medial Pivot (MP) system required lower quadriceps activation than subjects implanted with a Posterior stabilized (PS) system preforming the same activities of daily living.
The concept of mobilization with movement, also referred to as a Mulligan mobilization, has not been studied in patients with hip osteoarthritis, subsisting questions about the possible effects in this population. The aim of this randomized controlled study is to compare the immediate effects of Mulligan mobilization with movement technique of pain, range of motion and physical function in patients with osteoarthritis of the hip.
The purpose of this clinical study is to determine the safety and efficacy of the Comprehensive® Shoulder System with Nano Humeral Component in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA).
To evaluate the overall safety and tolerability of ulodesine when combined with allopurinol in subjects with moderate renal insufficiency.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ulodesine and allopurinol combined for 12 weeks are effective in treating gout in patients who are not adequately responding to allopurinol alone.
The purpose of the data collection is to document the performance and clinical outcomes of the Vanguard Knee using Signature Custom Cutting Guides and Computer Assisted Surgery.
