NCT ID: NCT06156384 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Leg Length Inequality

Study to Assess the Pain, Satisfaction, and Quality of Life of Patients With FITBONE® Lengthening Nail

FitForFrance
Start date: June 18, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study is a prospective observational non-interventional multi-centre cohort study of patients, 12 years or older, initiating a lower limb lengthening procedure with FITBONE and who have a length discrepancy of 30mm or more between the limbs. The following parameters will be assessed for up to 24 months. - Pain using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Patient Global Assessment (PGA) and Clinical Observer Global Assessment (COGA) - Patient satisfaction using the Patient Global Impression of change (PGI-C) scale - QoL using the 36-Item Short Form Survey/Paediatric Quality of Life Inventory (SF-36/PedsQL)

NCT ID: NCT05241691 Completed - Joint Diseases Clinical Trials

Retrospective Evaluation of GGPSP's Safety and Clinical Performance for the Treatment of Lower Limbs Deformities.

Start date: November 16, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Orthofix is conducting this retrospective Post-market clinical follow up (PMCF) study to assess the safety and clinical performance of the GGPSP device, which is a new version of the Guided Growth Plate System (GGPS) from which it differs for small modifications compared to the original design. The purpose of the study is to collect clinical evidence from the use of the device in a representative number of pediatric patients who have already been treated with the device in the study and with at least one control visit post removal of plaque.. For this purpose, a retrospective PMCF study was considered to be the most appropriate study design to obtain the necessary information.

NCT ID: NCT05122533 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Leg Length Inequality

Reliability of Clinical Limb-length Measurements Methods

Start date: October 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

There are numerous ways to measure limb length discrepancy in the clinical practice, although their reliability and accuracy are not well known. In our prospective diagnostic study we aimed to test the most popular methods and compare their results to EOS 3D reconstructions data.

NCT ID: NCT04713397 Completed - Scoliosis Clinical Trials

Leg Length Discrepancy and Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: Clinical and Radiological Characteristics

Start date: January 6, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of this retrospective study is to present clinical and radiological features and their relationships for differentiating functional scoliosis due to LLD and LLD concurrent with AIS.

NCT ID: NCT04564430 Recruiting - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Clonidine for Tourniquet-related Pain in Children

CLOTCH
Start date: March 1, 2021
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study is designed as a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, clinical trial with two parallel groups. This study investigates the association between a single dose of the drug, Clonidine, and the total amount of opioid administered under and 24 hours after surgery in children undergoing orthopedic limb surgery with the use of tourniquet. The investigators hypothesize that administration of clonidine to children undergoing limb surgery with the use of inflatable tourniquets would reduce post-procedural pain. This study is a pilot to obtain an effect size. Based on this the investigators will calculate a sample size for the main trial enabling us to reach a power of 0.8 with a significans level of 0.05.

NCT ID: NCT03966573 Completed - Quality of Life Clinical Trials

Femoral Lengthening Might Impair Physical Function and Lead to Structural Changes in Adjacent Joints

Start date: March 6, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluates function, quality of life and development of hip- and knee osteoarthritis minimum 15 years after unilateral femoral lengthening on people with idiopathic or post-traumatic anisomelia.

NCT ID: NCT03752814 Terminated - Clinical trials for Leg Length Inequality

SYNOSTE Nitinail System Trial

Start date: November 12, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

SYNOSTE Nitinail System Trial is an international multicenter open label single-arm equivalence study to verify whether the leg-lengthening procedure can be adequately controlled with the SNS system as measured with the lengthening control index (LCI) at the end of the distraction period.

NCT ID: NCT03666975 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Leg Length Discrepancy

Can we Promote Bone Lengthening With Vibration Therapy?

Start date: January 28, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research will assess whether vibration therapy can increase bone-growth in length of the shorter leg in children aged 6-12 years with pre-existing leg length difference (LLD) which is being treated with a heel-raise or orthotics. Children will be referred by orthopaedic and musculoskeletal clinics, physiotherapists and orthotists. Children will have monthly measurement of leg length (LL) over a 13 month period (4 months pre-treatment, 3 months treatment, 6 months post-treatment) using a portable Ultrasound-laser system which is safe, accurate, reproducible and validated against standing x-ray measurement. During the treatment phase they will be randomised to receive vibration therapy 3 times per week using a vibration platform at 30 Hz and very low amplitude of 0.4g (less than experienced when walking) or 30 Hz at 1.0 g (the same force as standing with the effect of gravity). The child will stand with the shorter leg on the platform and the longer leg on a stationary block for 15 minutes per treatment session. The aim is to assess the potential of this safe, non-invasive and potentially cost-effective method for levelling LL. If effective, the research could be extended in future to children with much larger LLD in whom it could potentially avoid the need for surgery and minimise long-term musculoskeletal disability.

NCT ID: NCT03554746 Completed - Clinical trials for Low Back Pain, Recurrent

Additional Gluteal Control Training for Low Back Pain With Functional Leg Length Inequality

Start date: December 11, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent musculoskeletal disorder. A variety of exercise interventions which were designed as randomized control trails (RCTs) have been studied and shown effectiveness in improving pain and disability. These exercises typically focus on the abdominal and back musculature strength. However, many LBP patients did not show any improvement in their symptom after they carry out those exercise programs.

NCT ID: NCT03502382 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Total Knee Replacement

Prediction of Leg Length Discrepancy After Unilateral Total Knee Replacement in Varus Deformity

Start date: April 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To What degree total knee replacement (TKA) affects leg length discrepancy in patients with varus deformity? Varus deformity, the most commonly encountered deformity in patients undergoing TKA is associated with limb alignment and varying degrees of contractures of medial soft tissue structures, laxity of the lateral soft tissue structures, flexion deformity and medial bone erosion at the knee joint .The challenges in performing TKA in a varus arthritic knee include restoration of limb alignment, balancing the medial and lateral soft tissue tension, equalizing flexion and extension gaps and restoring medial bone loss
