Filter by:The objective of this observatory is to generate additional real life clinical data in accordance with local regulation (i.e. Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study, a study carried out following the European Conformity (CE) marking of a device and intended to answer specific questions relating to clinical safety or performance (i.e. residual risks) of a device when used in accordance with its approved instructions for use (IFU). The difficulty of such an observatory is to be able to collect data on the different versions of the devices, on the different possible combinations of implants of an knee arthroplasty. The observatory must also be able to cover devices used in ligament reconstruction surgery. The observatory will be based on the principle of a "dynamic" cohort during the inclusion period, i.e. with possible inclusions to replace the premature exits. Technical solutions will be implemented to facilitate data collection from surgeons (electronic Case Report Form (eCRF) and from patients (Electronic Patient Reported Outcome (ePRO) on smartphone/tablet/computer) when feasible. The data to be collected and the different follow-up times are based on our state-of-the-art, clinical evaluation plans and clinical evaluation reports.
The LOARAL 2 project concerns patients who have undergone total knee arthroplasty to treat symptomatic osteoarthritis. Patient will be divided into three groups: a control group where patients will do standard rehabilitation associated with the judgments of videos represented non-human action and two experimental groups where patients will do standard rehabilitation associated with the judgement of human point-light display. The aim of this study is to measure the benefits of attentional focus and sex correspondence in the use of point-light display for the rehabilitation of patients with a total arthroplasty of the knee.
The study is a randomised trial of headphones with midazolam patient controlled sedation (intervention group) vs control group with no heaphones to compare sedation usage during knee replacement surgery under spinal. The trial is a pilot study of 20 cases

Surgical wounds are covered to prevent bleeding, absorb the exudates and provide a barrier against external contamination. Currently, in Corporació PT after orthopedic surgery, traditional occlusive dressing of sterile gauze and non-woven hypoallergenic adhesive tape is placed. In many cases the appearance of blistering caused by the use of these conventional dressings is observed, which increases the risk of infection, pain and the final cost of the procedure. There are other types of dressings that could improve these aspects but comparative data are not currently available. Main objective: to identify the dressing that better preserves the integrity of the skin. Design: Prospective randomized comparative study of 5 types of dressings used in total knee and hip arthroplasty surgical wounds (TKA and THA). Secondary Objectives: To identify the dressing that provides greater advantages and minor inconveniences in TKA and THA surgery. Study population: Patients older than 18 years undergoing fast track primary TKA or THA. 110 patients
Laser Angiography using indocyanin green (ICG) is a relatively new technique and has been utilized to assess the viability of soft tissue, most prominently in the general surgery and plastic surgery literature. This technique has been used for prediction of soft tissue viability by assessing the perfusion status. There is currently no Orthopaedic literature regarding the use of this device for assessment of subchondral perfusion of articular surfaces such as the distal femur or other chondral surfaces. In this pilot study, the use of ICG to detect the perfusion status of a distal femur and proximal tibia during a surgical approach to the knee and correlating this to visible signs of arthritis. For example, due to the difference visible with ICG angiography correlate to gross changes in the cartilage health visible to the naked eye with radiographic imaging.
The purpose of this research is to study changes in weight, body mass index, and percentage of fat following orthopaedic knee or shoulder surgery.
The purpose of the study is to determine the minimum effective concentration of bupivacaine (EC50) in femoral block for analgesia by ultrasound after knee surgery.
The primary objective of this investigation is to evaluate the performance of a self-adhesive absorbent post-operative dressing coated with a soft silicone layer in minimize the risk of the development of blistering in subjects after hip or knee arthroplasty or spinal surgery in comparison to a standard wound dressing The secondary objectives are to evaluate: - the performance of the dressing - the comfort, conformability and the acceptability of the dressing - pain before, during and after dressing removal - the overall cost regarding dressing wear time, time to do dressing change and personal resources needed
