NCT ID: NCT05557916 Recruiting - Meniscal Tear Clinical Trials

Rehabilitation With or Without Knee Orthosis Following Meniscal Repair

Start date: January 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

RCT to determine if a less restrictive postoperative rehabilitation protocol following meniscal repair results in a faster return to normal knee function without compromising rates of healing.

NCT ID: NCT05053646 Recruiting - Meniscal Tear Clinical Trials

This is a Study to Verify if Marrow Venting Procedure Can Improve Meniscal Suture Healing

Start date: December 29, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Meniscal suture represents the current surgical practice, and marrow venting is a low risk procedure. Bone venting may be able to improve the outcome of meniscal repair, allowing the patient a better recovery.

NCT ID: NCT04775004 Recruiting - Meniscal Tear Clinical Trials

Comparing Meniscal Repair Biologic Augmentation: Marrow Venting Procedure Versus PRP (MVP Trial)

Start date: July 19, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There are no current or past RCT comparing biologic augments for meniscal repair. There is good data supporting both the use of BMVP of the intercondylar notch and intra-articular PRP injections for augmentation of meniscal repair. However, the effectiveness of these augmentation methods with respect to each other has never been investigated. The knowledge gained will allow us to potentially influence and adapt protocols to treat this particular patient population. Additionally, resources available at our institution provide a supportive framework with which to maintain contact with patients after hospital discharge. These key factors will allow us to perform a robust analysis of this population, to include outcomes measures of function as well as meniscal repair failure and reoperation rate. The proposed interventional aim to compare meniscal repair augmentation methods is novel, as the direct comparison of these outcome measures has not been previously described. Because of the known benefit of biologic augmentation of meniscal repair, the investigators hypothesize that the repair failure rate for both cohorts will be lower than the reported repair failure rate for isolated tears without biologic augmentation; the investigators also hypothesize that BMVP of the intercondylar notch will clinically be significantly better than intra-articular PRP injection. The basis behind this hypothesis is in vivo evidence as well as a small RCT supporting the use of BMVP as augmentation for meniscal repair procedures.

NCT ID: NCT04647942 Completed - Meniscal Tear Clinical Trials

Is Meniscal Volume Critical to Post-meniscectomy Symptoms?

Start date: December 2013
Phase:
Study type: Observational

With this study we would like to investigate whether a certain, critical loss of meniscal volume, is critical to the development of pain.

NCT ID: NCT04135950 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear

Prospective Registry of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructions

Start date: January 2005
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The purpose of the study is to investigate factors that are associated with outcomes of injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the knee among patients who are undergoing surgical reconstruction. This study is a registry of all patients having knee surgery at our institution performed by 4 fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeons. The surgeon documents patient information on standard data forms including risk factors and surgical findings.

NCT ID: NCT03059706 Recruiting - Meniscal Tear Clinical Trials

The Effect of Intra-Articular Injection of RegenoGel-OSP™(Self-Plasma) to Treat Pain Following Arthroscopic Surgery

Start date: March 23, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluates the efficacy of intra-articular administration of RegenoGel-OSP™ to treat pain and the safety and efficacy on subject's activity and quality of life following arthroscopic surgery due to degenerative or traumatic meniscal tear. adult subjects will be randomized and sequentially assigned to RegenoGel-OSP™ or placebo treatment on a 1:1 basis.

NCT ID: NCT02961530 Completed - Meniscal Tear Clinical Trials

Effect of Rehabilitation Programs Based on Eccentric Exercise of Knee Extensor Muscles in Isotonic and Isokinetic Conditions After Partial Menisectomy

Start date: July 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A randomized clinical trial involving 32 individuals submitted to partial menisectomy will be conducted. Participants will be randomized into: Group I, submitted to a muscular rehabilitation program based on eccentric isokinetic exercise; and Group II, submitted to a muscular rehabilitation program based on eccentric isotonic exercise. Concomitantly with the muscular rehabilitation protocols, individuals will undergo the same physiotherapeutic protocol with analgesia, edema reduction, range of motion, proprioception and functionality goals. Muscle rehabilitation programs based on eccentric isotonic and isokinetic exercise will begin 15 days after partial menisectomy. The programs will last six weeks, with training frequency of two sessions per week, separated by a minimum interval of 72 hours.

NCT ID: NCT02237001 Completed - Meniscus Tear Clinical Trials

Study of Suture Repair of Torn Meniscus in the Knee

STITCH
Start date: November 19, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Horizontal meniscus tears meeting specified criteria will be repaired by any commonly used suture technique. Subjects will be followed for 2 years to evaluate the effectiveness of the repair, by assessing the re-operation rate, and by assessing improvements in knee pain and knee function.

NCT ID: NCT02189408 Completed - Knee Osteoarthritis Clinical Trials

Clinical Study of Pain Reduction by Peri-arthroscopic PRP Application in Knee Degeneration

PRP-Bochum
Start date: July 2010
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate reduction of pain, gain of function and improvement of life quality by intraoperative applied platelet- rich- plasma ( PRP ) during knee arthroscopy for degeneration and osteoarthritis OA by conducting a randomized- controlled, double-blinded trial ( RCT ) including 58 patients with a follow up of 12 months and pain, assessed by Visual- Analogue Scale (VAS) after 6 months as primary endpoint.

NCT ID: NCT01850719 Completed - Meniscal Tear Clinical Trials

Early Surgery Versus Conservative Therapy for Meniscal Injuries in Older Patients

ESCAPE
Start date: July 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of both arthroscopic knee surgery and physical therapy in the treatment of non-obstructive meniscal injuries in older patients. The investigators assume equal improvement of physical function in both groups and reduced costs with conservative treatment.
