Filter by:This is an objective cohort study using objective recording of physical activity (accelerometry) during and after the GLAiD intervention to investigate if a sedentary behavior change by participating in an 6-week physiotherapy-led exercise and education program (GLAiD) occurs. The GLAiD intervention is an education and exercise based intervention aiming at decreasing pain and improving function in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The primary outcome is change in objective recorded physical activity between baseline and follow-up.
This phase 2 study is a placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel group study of four concentrations of SM04690 (0.03, 0.07, 0.15, and 0.23 mg per 2 mL injection) injected intraarticularly (IA) into the target knee joint of subjects with moderately to severely symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA). Based on previous studies of SM04690, key phenotypes of laterality (unilateral vs bilateral) as well as chronic pain (as measured by the Widespread Pain Index) were identified as confounding variables impacting the overall assessment of both radiologic and clinical efficacy outcomes. The design of SM04690-OA-04 is based upon previous study designs while assessing strategies to combat the confounding impact of laterality and chronic pain. To evaluate the effect of IA vehicle injection on patient-reported outcomes (PRO) such as pain, stiffness, and function in OA, this study also includes one cohort that receives a 2 mL IA injection of vehicle (placebo), and one cohort that receives a sham injection (i.e., a needle stick with 0 mL vehicle injected).
The purpose of this study is to understand how the components of osteoarthritic knee joint fluid (synovial fluid) change after lavage treatment with platelet poor plasma. Additionally, the study participants will complete outcome questionnaire surveys before and after the treatment in conjunction with when synovial fluid is removed from the knee (2, 4, and 6 weeks after lavage). This data will help determine if the treatment of an osteoarthritic knee joint with platelet poor plasma lavage is a suitable stand-alone therapy or to improve outcome by preparing a patient's knee for further regenerative therapies.
The overall goal of this study is to identify what Physical Therapy care components are associated with the best patient-reported functional outcome after Total Knee Replacement (TKR) surgery. The investigators are specifically looking at outcomes at 6 and 12 months after surgery.
The objective of this study is complete a longitudinal cross-over clinical study to investigate the effect of treatments for knee pathology, including cutaneous stimulation (skin vibration and soft knee brace), on locomotion tasks (i.e. walking, jogging, stair ascending and descending), muscle function, and pain/function.
This is a multi-center, prospective, single-blinded, two-arm study, randomized to include approximately 134 subjects treated with Subchondroplasty (SCP) + Arthroscopy and 67 subjects with arthroscopy alone. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate superiority of Subchondroplasty with arthroscopy compared to arthroscopy alone for treatment of Bone Marrow Lesions (BMLs) in the knee.
The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate Zimmer® iASSIST™ with respect to radiographic, clinical and economic outcomes and compared to conventional instrumentation in primary total knee arthroplasty (NexGen or Persona knee implants).
This pilot study will evaluate the clinica! and radiological results of a treatment for knee osteoarthritis with injections of autologous concentrated bone marrow aspirate at the bone-cartilage interface via percutaneous.
The aim of this study is to improve the referral rates to physiotherapy of patients with knee osteoarthritis. The intervention consists of one academic detailing visit directed to general practitioners (GPs)
In this work the importance of the potentiation and recovery of the balance with a physiotherapeutic intervention that begins in the early preoperative phase is compared with the conventional postoperative rehabilitation. The objective is to evaluate the influence of a muscle enhancement protocol in which a specific work of balance is included, with the physical benefits that this entails for the evolution of the patient. It also seeks to verify if the teaching and recommendation of exercises at home as preparation and conditioning for the intervention of ATR is effective, and to what extent, compared to a guided training in the hospital.
