Filter by:The French Society of Rheumatology cannot rule on the value of intra-articular injections of PRP due to the lack of hindsight and insufficient data. In fact, the injection protocols are very heterogeneous in terms of preparation method, the presence or not of leukocytes, the number of centrifugations, the volume injected, the ultrasound guidance, which makes it difficult to analyze the literature. The investigator objective is therefore to evaluate the effectiveness of combined injections of PRP and hyaluronic acid.
The aim of the study is to compare the 6 months clinical outcome of the treatment with a single intra-articular collagen injection versus a single placebo (saline solution) infiltration in the infiltrative treatment of knee osteoarthritis. The evaluation will be performed through clinical, subjective and objective assessments.
The purpose of this study is to correlate functional outcomes and perioperative complications with tourniquet use during high tibial osteotomy.
In total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the posterior-cruciate ligament-retaining (CR) and posterior-cruciate-ligament stabilized (PS) techniques are widely used depending on the individual preference of the surgeon. Comparative analysis of these two techniques is a major topic of investigation in arthroplasty research. The hypothesis of the present study is that compared with the CR technique, the PS technique is associated with a worse gait pattern. Smart-phone based gait analysis and patient-reported functional outcomes are evaluated in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty with a CR and a PS technique, at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively.
The innovative aspect of this research is the possibility of combining the data collected with radiostereometric model based Radiostereometry with the data collected through the Galeazzi Institute Registry.This opens the prospect of an earlier identification of patients undergoing prosthetic knee replacement with initial aseptic loosening.
Registry of Galeazzi Orthopedic Institute: provides for the regular and systematic collection of all data (clinical and some PROMs) obtained from patients undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty to which questionnaires are proposed investigating the specific functional sphere of the joints undergoing surgery (Knee injuryOsteoarthritisOutcomeScore (KOOS-PS) and Hip injuryOsteoarthritisOutcomeScore (HOOS-PS) but also the sphere of general health (ShortForm health survey-12 (SF-12) and VisualAnalogueScale (VAS)) , in addition, of course, to the satisfaction rate.
To solve the existing Knee osteoarthritis;KOA) clinical norms and guidelines have low operability, Disconnection between treatment plan and specific evaluation results, difficulty in achieving individualized intervention and other problems, on the one hand, we need to develop Chinese expert consensus or clinical path based on evidence-based medicine to adapt to China's national conditions, on the other hand, is more important in The KOA clinical process introduces a set of tools to translate evidence-based medicine evidence into specific, actionable treatments, Thus, a more flexible, more comprehensive and three-dimensional, adaptable, targeted, more conducive to the promotion of the individual integration KOA rehabilitation intervention program.
1. The subject continues the research of Professor JiaKuo Yu's research group on the personalized design, processing and manufacturing of personalized total knee replacement artificial joint prostheses and the verification of animal and human cadavers. It is planned to carry out the femoral condyle prosthesis of personalized total knee replacement prosthesis. Clinical trials are carried out on the body, tibial tray prosthesis and meniscus prosthesis; at the same time, in order to achieve personalized precision surgery, the clinical trial verification is carried out on the placement of personalized surgical guides that match the personalized artificial joints. 2. In the clinical verification study, the research team will summarize the role of personalized artificial joints for total knee replacement and personalized implant surgical guides in the precise and minimally invasive treatment of knee joint diseases.
A study to translate and cross-culturally adapt the Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS) into the Arabic language, and assess its psychometric properties.
This is a randomized controlled trial examining and compare the effects of open and closed kinetic chain exercises on pain, function, and cartilage synthesis and degradation biomarkers after an eight-week rehabilitation program for knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients.
