Filter by:Trauma, neurological disorders and psychological problems, which are the etiological factors of temporomandibular joint dysfunction, can be seen in patients with traumatic brain injury. The aim of this study is to investigate temporomandibular joint dysfunction in patients with traumatic brain injury. Participants (traumatic brain injury patients and healthy volunteers) will be evaluated once for temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the effect and tolerance of standardized exclusive dry extracts of Curcuma longa (CURTIL03) and of Boswellia serrata (BOSTIL01) among people with hand joint discomfort and dysfunction. The study is prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled with 2 parallel-groups in 200 participants. The study is multicentric and will be done by 11 investigators located in Belgium including rheumatologists, sports and rehabilitation physicians, physical therapists, or any hand articular disease specialists.
High intensity laser therapy (HILT) has been considered as a treatment option for shoulder pain. In randomized controlled studies with high-intensity laser therapy (HILT), there are publications showing its effectiveness in conditions such as shoulder pathologies such as subacromial impigment syndrome and adhesive capsulitis. However, there are few studies in the literature that focus on the effectiveness of HILT, especially in hemiplegic shoulder pain. In this study, we intended to investigate the effectiveness of HILT on pain, disability, function and quality of life in patients with HSP accompanied by PTRCT.
The purpose of this study is to validate the performance and the safety of the HYPE (SERF) prothesis in compliance with the 93/42/EEC directive and in relation to the recommendations of the MEDDEV 2.7.1 guide ( guideline for post-market follow-up), which provides for the implementation of a systematic procedure for the follow-up of clinical data in order to verify the performance claimed for medical devices .
Approximately 1.66 million hip fractures happen in a year worldwide. About 95% of these fractures happen in individuals older than 60 years. Surgical treatment involving THA is considered the best option for patients with hip fractures and those with degenerative changes in the hip joint, especially in the elderly, however, it is associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain. Pain is one of the main factors limiting ambulation, increasing the risk of thromboembolism by immobility, and causing metabolic changes that affect other systems. Therefore, individualized pain management with the use of appropriate analgesia techniques is of paramount importance. Moreover, early intervention of rehabilitation aiming at a better postoperative recovery may reduce the length of hospital stay and return to daily. Effective pain management is one of the crucial components of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). Numerous regional anesthetic techniques have been used to provide analgesia following THA, including intrathecal morphine, epidural analgesia, fascia iliaca block, lumber plexus block, sacral plexus block, and local infiltration analgesia, however, each of these techniques has specific limitations that prevent them from being the analgesic technique of choice for THA. Up to investigators' knowledge, there is no study done to compare the supra-iliac approach to the anterior QL block versus the Anterior iliopsoas muscle space block as pre-emptive analgesia in patients undergoing THA under general anesthesia
Introduction: Hemophilic ankle arthropathy is manifested by degenerative functional alterations (deficit of muscle strength, mobility and proprioception), intra-articular alterations and chronic pain. Manual therapy techniques are used to treat soft tissue adhesions, relieve pain and reduce tissue sensitivity. Design. randomized pilot trial. Aimed: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a protocol by manual therapy techniques in patients with hemophilic ankle arthropathy. Patients: 24 patients with ankle arthropathy will be recruited for inclusion in the study. Patients will be recruited in seven centers, from different regions of Spain. Intervention: Each session will last approximately 50-60 minutes, with 1 physiotherapy session per week for a period of 3 weeks. Patients will be evaluated at baseline, after the intervention, and after a follow-up period of 3 weeks. The treatment program includes 10 exercises that must be administered bilaterally. Measuring instruments and study variables: Visual Analog Scale and pressure algometer (joint pain); Leg motion (ankle range of motion); and Haemophilia Joint Health Score (joint health). At the same time, the study will allow to determine joint bleeding caused by applied physiotherapy treatment. Expected results: To demonstrate the safety of this Physiotherapy technique in patients with hemophilia. Likewise, an improvement in ankle pain, joint motion, joint health and pressure pain threshold.
This study is a global, multi-center, prospective, non-controlled, non-randomized, post-market clinical follow-up study. The main objectives of this study are to confirm the long-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the G7 Dual Mobility Acetabular System when used with the Vivacit-E or Longevity polyethylene hip bearing and instrumentation in primary total and revision (total) hip arthroplasty
There is growing evidence on the effects of post isometric relaxation exercises and core stability exercises on pain and disability secondary to various disorders. However, very few studies have explored their effects in postpartum Sacroiliac joint dysfunction. The aim of this study will be to compare the effects of post isometric relaxation exercises and core stability exercises on pain in postpartum Sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
Total hip arthroplasty is the preferred treatment for hip disease (primary or secondary osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis, for example) and femoral neck fractures. HYPE SCS stems are intended to be used for primary total hip arthroplasties to reduce pain and restore joint mobility of the hip. Clinical data for HYPE SCS available are not deemed sufficient to support performance and benefits claimed on the whole lifetime of the product. Thus, in order to maintain compliance with the EU regulation (2017/745) relating to medical devices and following MEDDEV 2.7.1.guidelines, SERF has set up post-market clinical follow-ups (PMCF). This PMCF study aims to generate clinical data in order to confirm these performance of HYPE SCS Stem associated to NOVAE Sunfit TH acetabular cup. In the meantime, through complications faced over the entire period of the study, risks related to the implantation of HYPE SCS stems will be assessed at medium term (5 years). It should be noted that this patient cohort reflects the usual medical care of Hospital Center "J. Monod" of Flers.
The use of cementless femoral stems is known to provide satisfactory long-term clinical results. Extensive and durable osseointegration of these implants has been reported in numerous series, despite the use of stems with different geometry and coating distribution. This study will validate the performance and safety of the HYPE (SERF) stems in the context of the 93/42/EEC directive and in relation to the recommendations of the MEDDEV 2.7.1 (Guideline for post-marketing follow-up), which provides for a systematic procedure for monitoring clinical data in order to verify the performance claimed for medical devices.
