Filter by:The diagnose of symptomatic osteoarthritis in the ankle, mid- and hind foot remains challenging. There is no gold standard for the work-up and various hospitals use different protocols. Current literature shows a promising role for SPECT-CT imaging in ankle, hind- and midfoot OA. In a previous study investigating the role of SPECT-CT in a reproducible group we have observed a change in diagnosis in 53% when SPECT-CT data was added to the data of conventional workup alone. In 26% of patients addition of SPECT-CT data resulted in change of the original treatment plan. To our knowledge no prospective studies are available on this subject for both SPECT-CT and MRI. In our clinic both SPECT-CT and MRI are used in the work-up for patients with ankle, hind- and midfoot pain. Although we experience good result with SPECT-CT, MRI might be able to detect symptomatic OA as well. Moreover MRI provide more information about soft tissue and is less harmful for the patient in comparison to SPECT-CT. The aim of this study is to determine the diagnostic performance of SPECT-CT and MRI when used routinely in patients with symptomatic OA of the ankle, hind- and midfoot.
The H3 TAR Prosthesis was approved by FDA (P160036) on June 4, 2019. Continued approval of the premarket approval application (PMA) is contingent upon the submission of periodic reports (Annual Report), required under 21 CFR 814.84. In order to provide continued reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the PMA device, data from this post-approval study must be submitted to FDA in a PMA Post-Approval Study Report per the requirements set forth in the approval.
The primary objective of this study is to study how low-impact group exercise classes affect pain scores in patients with knee, hip, and ankle pain when paired with concurrent standard of care dietitian and behavioral health consults.
