Filter by:This is a single centre, randomised, patient blinded pilot study that will assign 40 participants with medial knee osteoarthritis undergoing medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) to either current standard of care with TOMOFIX plating system, or utilise patient specific instrumentation and custom-made plate development, with BodyCAD Fine Osteotomy. If the definitive study is deemed feasible, an additional 110 participants will be randomized, for a total of 150 participants.
General aim of the project: building and validating an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based prediction model on rehabilitation outcomes (total joint replacement - TJR - of the hip and knee for primary and secondary osteoarthritis) Purpose of this specific approval request: identifying data from patients admitted for total joint replacement surgery (hip and knee) at Istituto di Ricerca e Cura a Carattere Scientifico (IRCCS) Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi (IOG) in 2019 and subsequently discharged to inpatient rehabilitation in the same institution.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effect of bioceramic implants on the repair of human bone defects, and to explore the application of bioceramic materials in bone defects, bone implantation, and bone fusion. The surface microstructure of β-tricalcium phosphate bioceramic implants can be effectively controlled to guide the regeneration of bones, promote the restoration of bones, accelerate the speed of recovery, and improve bone quality, which is of great clinical and social significance.
Subjects aged 50 to 65 years with knee cartilage defects will undergo microfracture treatment for cartilage regeneration and MegaCarti^® will be applied.
This is a clinical trial of people who have pain due to knee osteoarthritis at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. The study will last for about 20 weeks. 180 qualified participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio (60 participants per group) to one of three treatment groups: duloxetine, celecoxib, or placebo. Participants will have an Xray, knee MRI, brain MRI, blood draws, pain sensitivity testing, and asked to fill out questionnaires. The purpose of this study is to try to predict which participants will respond to the treatment.
In our study, investigators plan to compare the preoperative RF and genicular nerve ablation approach in patients who underwent TKA(Total Knee Arthroplasty) using the Fast-Track protocol in terms of meeting postoperative pain, function and early discharge criteria.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a successful treatment for end-stage osteoarthritis of the knee. The main advantages of TKA are to relieve the pain of the knee, improve the knee function, restore lower limb alignment, and improve the quality of life for patients. During TKA, some surgeons prefer using a scalpel while others using electrocautery to expose the articular cavity. Whether the use of scalpel can lead to better and faster recovery after the primary TKA is still controversial. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of using the scalpel and the electrocautery in primary TKA
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) first manifests itself as a molecular derangement followed by anatomical and/or physiological changes. Conservative treatment of osteoarthritis should be the first approach to patients with this disease. The interest in biological therapies, including viscosupplementation and cell therapy, involves the recent update in knowledge about the pathophysiology of OA and its natural history. The aim of the present study is to compare the clinical results of intra-articular hyaluronic acid infiltration (IHA), bone marrow aspirate (BMA) and BMA matrix in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. The sample will consist of 90 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee followed up at the INTO, who will be divided into three groups: group A, treatment with BMA; group B, treatment with IHA ; and group C, treatment with BMA matrix. Patients will be submitted to clinical, subjective functional and radiographic evaluation by an observer independent of the one who applied the selected treatment, at moments before application and 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after application. We believe that treatment with BMA and the BMA matrix have a better effect in improving symptoms and for a longer period of time than treatment with hyaluronic acid.
The goal of this study is to better understand how daily treatment with cannabidiol (CBD) affects the need for opioid pain medication, as well as pain, inflammation and other related symptoms, after knee replacement surgery. The information collected in this study is necessary to help understand whether CBD may be a useful medication before and/or after surgery. The study hypothesis is that CBD exerts opioid-sparing effects through anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anxiolytic mechanisms.
Background: Osteoarthritis is a common cause of chronic pain and disability in elderly people. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in combination with Maitland mobilization and conventional physical therapy in patients with chronic knee osteoarthritis. Design: Pre-test post-test randomized control trial.
