Filter by:This open-label, single-arm, phase I/II study in mild-to-moderate stage knee osteoarthritis patients is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of intraarticular human allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell product StromaForte. 12 male and/or female patients aged over 18 years will be enrolled. The main questions it aims to answer are: To assess the safety and tolerability of StromaForte within 24 hours, 4 days ,28 days, 84, and 168 post injection during site visits and post injection by telephone calls. Safety and tolerability will be assessed by reporting the number of adverse events assessed by Common Terminology Criteria For Adverse Events (CTCAE) which is the Incidence of any treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TE-SAEs). Eligible patients will receive one dose (50 x 106 allogeneic bone marrow (BM)-derived MSC formulated in 4 ml infusion solution (sodium chloride supplemented with human serum albumin) to be given via ultrasoundguided intra-articular injection of human allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell product StromaForte
This research protocol evaluate the efficacity of intra-articular injections of autologous microfat associated with a preparation of autologous PRP, in symptomatic, resistant to first-line medical treatment, degenerative or post-traumatic cartilage lesions of the knee. The primary objective of this study is to show the superiority of intra-articular injection of autologous microfat combined with autologous PRP preparation compared to injection of microfat or PRP used alone, on the KOOS score at 6 months.
For many years' physiotherapists have been using ultrasound in treatment of knee osteoarthritis especially in geriatrics (people aged above 65 years) for its known therapeutic effect in relieving pain and improving knee function. Hyaluronan is used to treat osteoarthritis of the knee. Such treatments, called viscosupplementation, are administered as a course of injections into the knee joint, and are believed to supplement the viscosity of the joint fluid, thereby lubricating the joint, cushioning the joint, and producing an analgesic effect. Studies reveals the risk for falls increases with additional symptomatic OA lower limb joints and confirms in addition to gender factor; including female sex.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is disease in which the joint breaks down, causing pain. The decision to surgically replace the knee, a procedure called total knee arthroplasty (TKA), depends on x-ray results as well as pain and dysfunction. Despite TKA resulting in good outcomes for most patients, between 1 in 10 and 1 in 5 patients remain in significant pain - i.e., are 'TKA non-responders'. Two pain conditions - myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) and central sensitization - frequently coexist with signs of OA and may contribute to a TKA non-responder profile. MPS, caused by knots within skeletal muscle, can contribute to an OA patient's pain and dysfunction. In central sensitization, faulty pain sensing leads to increased pain sensitivity. However, there is currently no established process to identify these sources of pain and potential associated TKA non-responder risk. Our research aims conduct a pilot study to examine the impact of pain diagnosis tools to help orthopedic surgeons identify potential TKA nonresponders. This new approach may increase healthcare efficiency (reduce TKA waitlist and length of hospital stay), and help patients receive the right care at the right time.
The purpose of this proposal is to understand how the Vibrant Health Ultimate whole-body vibration (WBV) machine affects pain and inflammation in older adults. The investigators' hypothesize that sub-acute (12 weeks) WBV will lead to improvement in the level of knee pain and improve vascular function via a decrease in systemic inflammation.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of a positive affect enhancing intervention designed to reduce pain and augment reward system function in knee osteoarthritis (KOA) patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The scientific premise is that patient use of a positive emotion generative practice - savoring meditation, which has been demonstrated to reduce pain in experimental laboratory settings, enhanced with a pain neuroscience education component about reward system dysfunction as a chronic pain mechanism - is optimally suited to reduce postsurgical pain and augment reward system functioning relative to a Pain Self-Management and Education (PSME) condition. We will randomize 150 patients with KOA undergoing unilateral TKA to a brief, 4-session (20-30 minutes each) course of Savoring Meditation (SM; n = 75) or PSME (n = 75) delivered remotely by trained interventionists in a one-on-one format. We will assess pain and as well as pain-related risk and protective factors both via questionnaire and via weeklong ecological momentary assessment (EMA) data bursts on the following schedule: baseline, post-surgery, and 3-month follow-up. In addition, participants will attend laboratory testing sessions at baseline and 6-weeks post-surgery, during which affective pain modulation and electroencephalographic (EEG) brain biomarkers associated with pain and affect will be recorded. Participants in SM be encouraged to practice their savoring for 5 minutes/day during the week following surgery, as well as to use it to manage pain flares in a self-directed manner.
The goal of the interventional study is to assess the effectiveness of the supporting properties and safety of the dietary supplement ARTNEO (ARTNEO®), capsules with an average weight of 585 mg, in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joint of both sexes aged 40 to 75 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the effectiveness of the supporting properties of dietary supplement ARTNEO (ARTNEO®) in patients with knee osteoarthritis in comparison with active control; 2. To evaluate the safety of the dietary supplement ARTNEO (ARTNEO®) in patients with knee osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a continual illness of joints. We aim to investigate the effect of Nigella sativa oil in comparison with placebo on the reduction of osteoarthritis pain. This study is a double-blinded, randomized, controlled trial study, conducting in Vali-e-Asr Hospital in 2019, in Birjand, on patients with mild osteoarthritis. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index is applied to score the functional status of participants' joints.
The goal of this cross-sectional study is to evaluate muscle architecture changes and it's effect on muscle strength in female patients with gonarthrosis.Main questions are: - Is there any correlation between muscle strength and muscle thickness, pennation angle fiber length? - Is there any muscle architecture difference in gonarthrosis and is it effecting the muscle strength? The investigators will enroll patients with unilateral gonarthrosis so that investigators can compare the changes within osteoarthritic and healthy knee with the same physical activity levels.
Rationale: Realignment osteotomies around the knee are a proven surgical treatment for unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis and a malalignment. Osteotomies can be very painful in the early postoperative phase. This is probably due to a combination of bony cut (bone pain) and postoperative hematoma (bleeding and leakage of the bone marrow) in the surrounding soft tissue. The AttraX® Putty can be used as a gap filler in open wedge osteotomies to potentially reduce postoperative pain by reducing the bleeding from the bone gap. Objective: The main aim of this study is to determine whether early postoperative pain is decreased when the osteotomy gap is filled with AttraX® Putty, compared to conventional open wedge osteotomy without filling the gap. The secondary aims are faster accelerated rehabilitation/regaining function, reduction of local blood loss, accelerated bone union, comparable surgical accuracy, and the occurrence of (serious) adverse events. Study design: Single-blinded, prospective, randomized controlled trial. Study population: Adult patients qualifying for open-wedge tibial, open-wedge femur or double level osteotomy. Intervention: According to a randomization scheme, the osteotomy gap will be filled with either the synthetic ceramic material AttraX® Putty or without a gap filler (conventional method). Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study endpoint is the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) pain during the first week postoperative. The secondary study endpoints are faster rehabilitation/regaining function, reduction of local blood loss, accelerated bone union, comparable surgical accuracy, and (serious) adverse events. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Patients may have the advantage of experiencing less pain postoperatively if they are treated with the AttraX® Putty, which can contribute to a faster rehabilitation. Risks to the AttraX® Putty group may include an allergic reaction, failure to promote bone fusion and excessive bone growth. However, the preclinical studies and clinical studies show that the use of AttraX® Putty is safe for use in humans.
