Filter by:The START study will implement osteoarthritis (OA) treatment recommendations to increase the use of recommended treatment modalities and reduce non-desired events (e.g. unnecessary referrals to secondary care, unnecessary use of costly imaging modalities and use of treatment modalities supported by low quality of evidence). The purpose of the STavanger osteoARThritis (START) study is to improve the quality of OA care and increase the collaboration between health care professionals in primary health care and across health care levels.
This study is conducted to study the efficacy and safety of Niselat in patients with osteoarthritis.
This study is being done to evaluate the outcomes of patients undergoing total knee replacement with two different methods of local pain control:shots of liposomal bupivacaine, a long acting anesthetic, directly into the knee during surgery or anesthetic delivered continuously to the adductor canal to provide long term pain relief. The goal is to try to find a standard protocol that provides the greatest pain relief for patients undergoing total knee replacement.
Whole body vibration (WBV) acutely improves quadriceps strength, and may improve long-term outcomes in individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). However, it is unclear if WBV influences athletic tasks such as running. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of WBV on running biomechanics in individuals with ACLR.
The reduction of functional limits and disablilities induced by knee osteoarthritis as well as improvement of patients quality of life is a public health need registered amongst the priorities established by the French law of August 9th 2004 relative to Public Health policy. However, the response to this need is not limited to treatment with health products. This clinical trial in real life on ARTHRUM H 2% device aims to analyse patients quality of life treated by intraarticular injections, eventually for several years, by difference of usual clinical trials. This open, prospective, multicentric study aims to analyse, in patient care, the impact of three intraarticular injections of ARTHRUM H 2% on quality of life over a period of 6 months (D180) in the symptomatic treatment of knee osteoarthritis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of a second course of TPX-100 administered by intra-articular injection to subjects with osteoarthritis of the knee who participated in study TPX-100-1.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of a 12-week low-load neuromuscular electrical stimulation with volitional contraction (NMES-VC) training program to improve quadriceps strength and activation, while not adversely affecting knee-related pain, activities of daily living or quality of life in women with knee pain. The primary outcome will be change in maximal isokinetic knee extensor torque. The investigators will test the following hypotheses. In comparison with low-load (40%) resistance training without electrical stimulation, a 12-week NMES-VC training program will: Hypothesis 1: Increase maximal isokinetic knee extensor torque Secondary questions and response variables Hypothesis 2: Not adversely affect knee pain or quality of life, assessed by the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) questionnaire Additional hypotheses in women with risk factors for incident symptomatic or progressive KOA: 1. Determine the extent to which NMES-VC-enhanced low-intensity resistance training increases quadriceps muscle rate of force development 2. Determine the extent to which NMES-VC enhanced low-intensity exercise is tolerated (using numeric rating scale survey "level of pain you experienced during the hybrid training or 40% isokinetic exercise") 3. Determine the extent to which NMES-VC-enhanced low-intensity resistance training increases physical function (20m walk, chair stand)
1. To assess the safety of allogeneic injection of expanded ADSCs to patients with knee osteoarthritis 2. To assess the efficacy of allogeneic injection of expanded ADSCs to patients with knee osteoarthritis
This study sought to better identify the motivators and barriers to osteoarthritic patients practising regular physical activity. This is a crucial step towards enabling each health professional to adapt their therapy recommendations, while taking into account the patient's overall lifestyle.
This is a multicenter , double-blinded, double-dummy, randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of moxibustion for osteoarthritis of the knee.
