Filter by:The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to placebo, when administered for up to 24 weeks in patients with pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee or hip. The secondary objectives of the study are: - To evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID)s, when administered for up to 24 weeks in patients with pain due to OA of the knee or hip - To assess the safety and tolerability of fasinumab compared to placebo and compared to NSAIDs, when administered for up to 24 weeks in patients with pain due to OA of the knee or hip
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab in relieving Chronic low back pain (CLBP) as compared to placebo in participants with a clinical diagnosis of moderate-to-severe non-radicular CLBP and Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee or hip when treated for up to 16 weeks. The secondary objectives of the study are: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of fasinumab compared to placebo when participants with a clinical diagnosis of moderate-to-severe non-radicular CLBP and OA of the knee or hip are treated for up to 16 weeks; To characterize the concentrations of fasinumab in serum over time when participants with a clinical diagnosis of moderate-to-severe non-radicular CLBP and OA of the knee or hip are treated for up to 16 weeks; To evaluate the immunogenicity of fasinumab when treated for up to 16 weeks in participants with a clinical diagnosis of moderate-to-severe non-radicular CLBP and OA of the knee or hip.
There have been no previously published clinical randomized studies comparing Primoris®, short stem, hip prosthesis with standard uncemented hip arthroplasty in relation to bone density and function development. This is the subject for this study.
Success of the hip arthroplasty depends on the measures that optimize perioperative conditions.It is planned to evaluate semi-closed loop system in the hip arthroplasty surgery.
The objective of this study is to verify the superiority of 16 weeks of MT-5547 treatment to placebo, as evidenced by the WOMAC pain score (the efficacy outcome measure), in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee or hip. Additional objectives of the study are to investigate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of MT-5547 in long-term use.
Subjects submitted to unilateral THA will be randomized into two rehabilitation groups. One group will receive a booklet with guidelines for postoperative care, while the other group will participate in face-to-face sessions with exercises with emphasis on muscle strengthening.
Dry needling is a new treatment technique, addressed to mechanical pain of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Recent investigations has developed new hypothesis about the etiology of the osteoarthritis and could be in relation to musculoskeletal disorders, but there is no published studies evaluating the results of this technique in hip osteoarthritis patients. The objective of this trial is to evaluate if dry needling is more effective in symptoms, function, range of motion, strength, muscular length, pain threshold and compared to sham dry needling and control. For this purpose the investigators conduct a randomized controlled trial double-blind (patient and examiner). The investigators included patients diagnosed of hip osteoarthritis Grade I-III by Scale of Kellgren and Lawrence. Patients included are randomized into 3 groups one receive Dry needling, other sham dry needling and the other is a control. Groups receive 3 treatment sessions. The variables are measured at the beginning and end of treatment. And also some variables are measured before and after each session. Patients who participated in sham dry needling or control group, when the intervention finish the investigators will be given the opportunity to receive the actual technique.
Prolonged wound drainage after total hip or knee arthroplasty is a very undesirable complication, both from medical as patients view. Wound drainage prolongs hospital admission and is associated with an increased risk of infection (1) post-operative wound drainage of more than 48 hours is associated with an increased infection risk of 42 percent a day in hip arthroplasty and 27 percent a day in knee arthroplasty. (2) Patient organizations report that wound drainage is considered as one of the most undesirable complications. In our hospital, patients undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty are treated according to a "fast track" protocol, in most cases resulting in a hospital admission of only two days. This increases the chance that patient's release from hospital will be delayed due to wound drainage. The fact that our department recently started to perform hip and knee arthroplasty in a daycare setting increases this chance substantially. In hemiarthroplasty of the knee, tissue adhesive was used in addition to conventional wound closure techniques with monocryl sutures. Resorbable monocryl sutures were used so that the usual visit to our outpatient department to remove the sutures was no longer necessary. However, we experienced an increase in wound drainage and complications using only monocryl. The addition of a tissue adhesive decreased the post-operative wound complication drastically. This in mind, we started to use tissue adhesive in regular hip and knee arthroplasty as well. With tissue adhesive in addition to conventional staples, we noticed good results. These results however, were subjective and not officially recorded. In a previous study, good results are reported in decreasing wound drainage with the use of a tissue adhesive in addition to staples. Clinical relevance was not reported and the study design lacked a cost-effectiveness analysis (3) The increase in cost for the use of the tissue adhesive involved was noted by our board of directors. Because lack of a clear medical of financial benefit, we were asked to minimize the use of tissue adhesive, resulting in usage of tissue adhesive solely in a day care setting, which comprises only 5 to 10 percent of our treated population. Previous study reported a decrease in post-operative wound drainage when tissue adhesive was used in addition to staples in knee arthroplasty. However, no financial benefit is known, therefore this treatment has not been accepted into daily practice. In our department, prolonged hospital admission due to wound drainage is not found to be uncommon. Our hypothesis is that the addition of tissue adhesive in wound closure after hip and knee arthroplasty will significantly decrease post-operative wound drainage, leading to a reduced number of admission days. In addition, we expect less patients to return to our outpatient clinic for non-regular visits due to wound complications. Expensive bandages are used in our standard treatment protocol. Less wound drainage would mean less bandages. All these things combined will lead to a reduction in overall health care costs
This prospective study will evaluate the hip function and quality of life of patients operated for total hip arthroplasty with Masterloc femoral stem and MPACT acetabular cup. The results of this study will establish the performance of Masterloc femoral component (Medacta International SA) and MPACT acetabular component (Medacta International SA), and provide a general estimate of survivorship, clinical effectiveness and complications.
This study will examine the safety and efficacy of autologous adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells for treatment of hip, knee and thumb osteoarthritis (OA); monitoring adverse events and measuring pain, function and stiffness in the joints of osteoarthritic subjects.
