Filter by:Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the common diseases which causes pain and disability with increasing age. In developed countries, it is said to be one of the ten diseases which decreases functionality most.
The aim of this double-blinded controlled study is to assess clinical efficacy and safety of intra-articular polyacrylamide hydrogel with ions of silver in comparison with placebo (0.9% sodium chloride solution) in Kellgren Lawrence radiological grade II-III knee osteoarthritis
Compare knee flexion after cruciate-retaining and cruciate substituting Total Knee Arthroplasty.
The purpose of this study is to establish the effect of sub-anesthetic dosing of ketamine with spinal anesthesia during total knee arthroplasty on post-operative pain and narcotic consumption. We hypothesize that sub-anesthetic ketamine will decrease post-operative pain and narcotic consumption and may secondarily lead to shorter lengths of stay, faster rehabilitation, improved postoperative outcomes and patient satisfaction.
A study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Calypso Knee System when used in subjects with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the medial compartment of the knee.
The purpose of the study is a scientific and prospective documentation of the clinical effects of an inpatient treatment at the Immanuel Hospital of Berlin, in the department for complementary and integrative medicine, with the use of a modified fasting regime. A pre- and post- as well as group comparisons are planned. Patients that are admitted to the inpatient department for metabolic syndrome, osteoarthritis of the hip or knee, rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia will be enrolled in the study.
Genicular nerve block is a safe and effective therapeutic procedure for intractable pain associated with chronic knee osteoarthritis (OA). There is increasing support for the neuropathic component to the knee OA pain. Investigators proposed that targeting treatment to the underlying pain mechanism can improve pain management in knee OA. There is a debate on injectable solutions used in nerve blocks. Investigators aimed to investigate the efficacy of genicular nerve block and to determine which solution should be appropriate for patients with knee osteoarthritis who have neuropathic or nociceptive pain.
The study is a blinded, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial with participants individually randomized to one of two parallel groups: 1. The intervention group: Participants receive one intra articular injection with autologous, microfragmented adipose tissue. 2. The control group: Participants receive one intra articular injection with Saline (placebo). The objective of the study is to investigate if intra-articular injection with autologous, microfragmented adipose tissue prepared using the Lipogems system affects the patient reported outcome in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. The primary endpoint is KOOS4 evaluated at 6 months after the intervention. Secondary endpoints are the KOOS including all five subscales evaluated after 6months, 1 and 2 years.
The treatment that patients with knee OA are offered varies largely. There is a need for more evidence-based individualized guidance to treatment choice for knee osteoarthritis. This study will register and evaluate the course and outcome of treatment in 5,000 patients with knee osteoarthritis. The understanding of knee OA treatment will advance in three ways: Firstly, by describing the different treatment pathways that are currently being used for knee OA. Secondly, by identifying wich individual factors that may impact the outcome of the treatment course. And finally, by conducting the economic burden related to different treatment modalities.
Post-market prospective, multi-center longitudinal study to determine if mobile application-guided education and exercise paired with accurate and sensitive activity monitoring, captured from consumer wearables, can provide a viable (and potentially improved) alternative to current standard of care physical therapy for hip and knee arthroplasty.
