Filter by:Action Observation Therapy (AOT) and Motor Imagery (MI) are two rehabilitation approaches based on Mirror Neuron System (MNS). The MNS refers to a series of neurons able to activate both when one observes an action being performed or when one physically performs the action themselves. Previous studies reported that functional recovery is facilitated by asking patient observing videos with motor content (AOT) and after imagining (MI) the gestures observed. These rehabilitative apporach have been used in particular to promote functional recovery in patients with neuromotor problems, in particular in patients with stroke. To date, few studies have investigated the effectiveness of this therapeutic approach in functional recovery after orthopedic surgery and none of these applied AOT and MI in a single pre-operative session. The objective of the study is to verify whether a single administration consisting of two pre-operative sessions of AOT associated with MI can lead to an improvement of functional recovery in hip arthroplasty patients.
The most common cause of hip joint dysfunction in the elderly is degenerative osteoarthritis of the hip. Innervation of the hip joint capsule is provided by the obturator nerve, the accessory obturator nerve, and the femoral nerve. With pericapsular nerve group block (PENG), by blocking the femoral nerve and the accessory obturator nerve, analgesia is successfully provided for the hip joint. Intra-articular injection of corticosteroids; It is used as an alternative to surgical interventions because it reduces inflammation and short-term pain and is a minimally invasive method. The investigators aim to compare and report patients who underwent ultrasound-guided intra-articular steroid injection and PENG block in terms of post-procedural pain scores and patient satisfaction.
The goal of this study is to apply the regression discontinuity design (RD) methodology on arthroplasty registry data. The investigators aim to use an age-based cut-off for fixation type choice and estimate the causal effect of fixation type on short term mortality and revision, using a fuzzy regression discontinuity design.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of hydrolyzed collagen in osteoarthritis.
Alumina particles from the grit blasting of Ti-alloy stems for hip arthroplasty are suspected to contribute to aseptic loosening. An alumina-reduced stem surface was hypothesized to improve osseointegration and show comparable short-term outcomes to those of a standard stem.
The main objective of the study is to compare the use of single-use ancillary reaming material during total hip replacement and conventional reusable ancillary reaming material. The assessment will focus on the medico-economic differences found in this prospective randomized study
This study will compare outcomes of two different delivery methods (Face-to-face and digitally) of first-line treatment for hip and knee osteoarthritis.
This randomised controlled trial will compare the effects of a weight loss and exercise program to exercise only on clinical outcomes in 100 people with hip osteoarthritis (OA) and overweight or obesity. The primary aim is to find out whether a weight loss and exercise program will improve hip pain more than an exercise program alone at 6 months follow-up
To evaluate the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection on pain, function and quality of life in patients with hip osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee constitutes a major public health problem. Treatment options for knee OA range from lifestyle changes to pharmacological management to total knee replacement surgery. As a "preference-sensitive" condition, management of OA of the knee is ideally suited for shared decision making (SDM), taking into consideration benefits, risks, and patients' health status, values, and goals. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) reflect health status from the patient's perspective. For knee OA, relevant PROs include pain and other symptoms, functional status and limitations, and overall health. Prior research indicates that patients with higher baseline physical function and/or poor baseline mental health do not benefit as much from total knee replacement. Still, due to logistical challenges, costs, and disruptions in workflow, PROs have not yet achieved their full potential in clinical care. Musculoskeletal providers at Dell Medical School and UT Health Austin currently collect general and condition-specific PROs from every patient seen in their Musculoskeletal Institute. PROs are collected via an electronic interface and results are pulled into the Athena electronic health record (EHR). Given the promise of combining PRO data with clinical and demographic data, musculoskeletal providers at UT Health Austin have begun utilizing an innovative electronic PRO-based predictive analytic tool at the point of care to guide SDM in patients with knee OA. This project plans to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and impact of the PRO-guided predictive analytic SDM tool and process in a randomized controlled trial in Austin. Outcomes will include decision quality, as reported by patients; treatment decision (surgical vs. non-surgical); and decisional conflict and regret. Our project contributes to AHRQ's strategy to use health IT to improve quality and outcomes by evaluating a tool and process for the use of PRO data at the point of care. The model being tested puts patients at the center of their care by enabling them to participate in informed decision making by using their personal health data, preferences, and prognostic models. Knowledge gained will be critical to scaling and spreading use of this PRO-guided SDM tool among patients with knee OA nationally.
