Filter by:This study compares manipulative therapy to steroid injection in the treatment of Morton's Neuroma.
The aim of our study is to compare the effect of Morton's neuroma in feet with pes planus and pes cavus on foot pressure and temporal and spatial gait parameters.
Comparing safety, pain, user experience, healthcare economic costs, work productivity, impairment and quality of life outcomes between Axoguard® Nerve Cap and neurectomy in the treatment of symptomatic neuromas in the foot. Study consists of a 15 subject pilot phase with Axoguard® Nerve Cap implants followed for 3 months and then a comparative study of 86 subjects randomized between the treatment groups followed for 12 months.
Objective: The aim of the present study was to assess the effectiveness of insole with metatarsal support on pain in patients with Morton`s neuroma and the impact of this insole on function, load distribution in the plantar region, gait variables, quality of life and satisfaction with insole use. Methods: A randomized, controlled, double-blind, clinical trial with intent-to-treat analysis. Seventy-two patients with Morton`s neuroma were randomly allocated into a study group and control group. One week following the baseline evaluation, the study group received insole with metatarsal support made of ethyl vinyl acetate and the control group received a flat insole of the same material, color and density. The groups were evaluated after 6, 12 and 24 weeks of insole use. The following assessment parameters employed: pain when walking and at rest (END); quality of life (SF-36); foot function (FFI and FHSQ); six-minute walk test (6MWT) and foot pressure analysis using the AM Cube FootWalk Pro program.
Foot surgery is a painful surgery that is usually scheduled in outpatients. A good management of analgesia is the crucial point. Regional anesthesia (RA) is the gold standard, that provides good anesthesia and a long duration of analgesia. The sciatic nerve block (or its branches) is the most adapted analgesic technique. Limitation of proximal sciatic block is the motor block of the ankle and results in the impossibility, for the patient, to walk during the early post-operative period. Distal block of the sciatic nerve (tibial and fibular nerve blocks), at the level of the ankle, has been proposed to maintain the mobility of the ankle, to make deambulation with crutches easier. Nevertheless, the lack of sensibility of the heel remains a limitation for early walking, even with adapted shoes (ie : Barouk). A specific anesthesia of the distal part of the foot, respecting the heel, could be the best option to provide an early deambulation and a suitable analgesia. Ultrasound identification and specific anesthesia of the branches supplying the distal part of the foot (medial and lateral plantar nerves) could meet this dual objective : good anesthesia and suitable analgesia for early deambulation. This study is a feasibility study of a specific block of the plantar branches of the tibial nerve, to preserve the sensibility of the heel, in case of foot surgery. The safety of the procedure will be assessed according to the rate of postoperative dysesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a device that delivers freezing temperature compared to injecting lidocaine (an anesthetic medication) in providing pain relief to patients with disorganized nerve bundle between the toes, also known as Morton's neuroma. The same ultrasound technology that the obstetricians use to visualize a fetus inside a pregnant woman will be used to help the study physician to locate the Morton's neuroma while precisely delivering the freezing temperature and lidocaine near the nerve.
