Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare patient satisfaction with patient-controlled sedation with propofol and anesthesiologist-controlled sedation during orthopedic procedures of the upper limb under locoregional anesthesia.
The investigator aims to conduct an open pilot study (N=12; 10 completers) to test the feasibility, acceptability, and credibility of an asynchronous web-based mind-body intervention (Toolkit for Resilient Life beyond Pain and Substance Use; Web-TIRELESS) for adult patients with a comorbidity of non-traumatic painful upper-extremity condition(s) (NPUC) and risky substance use. Deliverables: 1) Adapt and refine open pilot protocol, patient recruitment, and other study materials. 2) Assess the feasibility, acceptability, and credibility of Web- TIRELESS in preparation for a future feasibility RCT. Participants will complete 4 on-demand video sessions at their own pace (approximate pace of 1 session per week) and complete baseline and post-test assessments. participants may also partake in an exit interview to provide feedback on Web-TIRELESS to further refine the program and study protocol for future iterations.
Study of the osteoconductive potential of the injectable bone substitute In'Oss™ (MBCP® Putty) in the filling of orthopaedic bone defects to collect Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) data for the CE-marked In'Oss™ (MBCP® Putty) device in the orthopaedic trauma surgery
Rationale: OCLs (osteochondral lesions) of the talus can be congenital or can occur after trauma or in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The main complaint of an OCL is pain during weightbearing activities. Therefore, these lesions have significant impact on the health status of patients. Objective: The aim of this study is to optimize the treatment for skeletally immature patients with an osteochondral lesion. The hypothesis is that a period of immobilization and supervised rehabilitation will lead to better clinical and radiological outcomes compared with standard care which is a ''skill-full'' neglect. Study design: Observational comparative study Study population: Skeletally immature children with an osteochondral lesion of the talus diagnosed on CT. Intervention: Patients in the intervention group will undergo an 8-week period of casting and walking on crutches. Afterwards, they will receive a protocolled period of rehabilitation under supervision of a physical therapist. The control group will have the standard care as treatment. Main study parameters/endpoints: the main study outcome is the difference between the two groups on the OxAFQ-C. Secondary study outcomes are radiologic changes in terms of morphology and lesion size, NRS during weight bearing and quality of life measured with a Peds-QL, EQ-5D-y and AAS. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: the burden that patients will have is mainly the time that they have to spent on fulfilling the questionnaires.
The primary objective of the study is to determine in adult patients with a rotator cuff tear, what size and pattern of rotator cuff tear would result in damage to the suprascapular nerve. The secondary objectives are 1. To determine if an injured suprascapular nerve can recover if the rotator cuff tear is surgically repaired. 2. To determine if there is a limit of retraction before the suprascapular nerve is irreversibly damaged. 3. To determine factors that are protective against SSN injury. 4. Can the patient data gathered be used to optimise operative procedures.
Procedural sedation involves the administration of sedative medications that allow patients to tolerate painful procedures. Procedural sedation has been formally recommended by experts from the French Society of Emergency Medicine (SFMU) since 2010 and procedural sedation using propofol in emergency departments has been recommended by the American College of Emergency Physicians in 2018. Propofol monotherapy is now widely used in emergency medicine (EM) in France as part of procedural sedation for performing painful procedures, however propofol has no analgesic properties per se . Pupilometry makes it possible to study the depth of analgesia by evaluating the body's nociceptive response via the ANS by studying the pupil diameter. This technique would allow the evaluation of the analgesia level in patients sedated by PROPOFOL during the realization of painful procedures. Variations in pupil diameter during painful procedures under procedural sedation in an emergency department will be assesed in this study. Secondly, patients satisfaction following the procedure will also be evaluated by the use of the French version of the "ISAS-F", the Iowa Satisfaction with Anesthesia Scale.
The hip is formed by the acetabulum, the proximal femur and soft tissues joining them (capsule, teres ligament, transverse ligament and pulvinar). The acetabulum is a complex structure in the growing child. It is formed by the joined pubis, This junction is called tri radiate cartilage, which is responsible for acetabular growth. The external surface of the acetabulum is covered by a horse shoe-shaped articular cartilage. The transverse ligament joins both extremes of the articular cartilage inferiorly.
Adequate growth and development of the hip depends on two main factors: concentric positioning of femoral head into the acetabular cavity and adequate balance in growth between tri-radiate and acetabular cartilage. Any alteration in these two conditions leads to a hip dysplasia & dislocation
Clinical study enrollment has historically been heavily biased toward specific demographics. Several people will be invited to participate in this study so that it may collect a variety of data about orthopedic clinical trial experiences and identify barriers to participation as well as the causes of participants' failure or withdrawal. People with orthopedic disorders who are invited to take part in medical research will benefit from the analysis of the data.
The treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) remains challenging, yet recent advances have refined our understanding of how best to survey for the condition during infancy, minimize complications during early treatment, and refine the selection of patients who can best benefit from hip preservation surgery. The ideal continued target would be to prevent missed hip dislocations or dysplasia during the infant period, prevent avascular necrosis (AVN) during early treatment, and decrease the incidence of total hip arthroplasty in adulthood related to undertreated DDH, The goal of the treatment is to achieve a concentric reduction of the femoral head into the acetabulum.
