Filter by:Prospective randomized double-blind controlled study. Participating patients with knee pain secondary to knee osteoarthritis will be randomized to either the DepoMedrol 40mg + 0.25% Bupivacaine (total Volume 5 ml) vs Morphine 3mg group+0.5% Bupivacaine (total volume 5ml) for their intra-articular knee injection. Before the injections, baseline values of NRS (Numerical rating scale) and WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) Questionnaire will be recorded by investigator. After the injections NRS and WOMAC will be recorded at 30mins and on discharge. Patient will be contacted by phone to assess the effectivity of block or any side effects on day 1, 7,30 and 45, information including NRS (at rest and household activity), WOMAC, supplemental analgesic, Side effects (pruritus, paresthesia, urinary retention, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, rash) will be obtained from the patient at the above time intervals. follow up visit will be scheduled 60days after the procedure for re-evaluation.
The goal of this phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of chondroitin sulfate 800 mg oral tablets versus placebo in the treatment of subjects with pain due to knee OA (osteoarthritis). The further aims of the study are to evaluate the durability of the treatment effect (up to week 36) and to gain further long-term safety and efficacy data (up to 48 weeks). The primary outcome of interest will be the effect of chondroitin sulfate on pain in the index knee at week 24 compared to placebo. The effect of chondroitin sulfate in the index knee functionality and the patient global impression of changes at 24 weeks compared to placebo are included as key-secondary endpoints. An additional key secondary endpoint will assess the durability of the effect on pain compared to placebo at week 36. Several additional secondary endpoints are included to further support the beneficial effect of the treatment and the improvements in patient's quality of life (i.e., Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index -WOMAC- subscales and total scores at each study visits, changes in patient's quality of life, use of rescue medication etc.) other than the safety of the product.
The investigators have previously identified knee osteoarthritis patients with the combination of depression and an unhealthy weight may be an increased risk of more rapid joint degeneration and worsening pain. The GetHealthy-OA program combines a mind-body program with the oral supplement fisetin to potentially reduce the risk for this population by treating psychosocial, mechanical, and inflammatory mechanisms of knee osteoarthritis. This randomized clinical trial will compare the GetHealthy-OA program to minimally-enhanced usual care plus an oral placebo.
This is a prospective, randomized, single-blinded, multi-center trial comparing Kinematic Alignment vs Mechanical Alignment in TKA patients using patient reported outcomes, clinical and functional performance tests and radiographic analyses.
A 3-armed pilot randomized controlled trial: electroacupuncture, sham acupuncture and waitlist groups.
The purpose of this study is to determine which platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection dosage provides the most improvement in a patient's knee pain level at 26 weeks post-injection.
The goal of this study was to perform pulsed radiofrequency ablation with a modified target suggested in the cadaver study by Park et al. (The Knee 27 (2020) 1577-1584) on knee osteoarthritis patients, and to evaluate the effect of reducing the frequency of intravascular injection and reducing pain.
The purpose of this research is to help determine if use of the Guardian brace during prehab and post-op rehab after TKA can help improve functional outcomes and reduce the incidence of post-operative flexion contractures which reduce knee range of motion after surgery.
In this study the investigators aim to examine the effects of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) on hippocampal network connectivity and pain levels in individuals with pain due to knee osteoarthritis.
This is a single-site, three-arm, parallel-group randomized clinical trial (RCT). The clinical effects of a nurse-led, very brief, preoperative mindfulness-based intervention for hip and knee replacement patients will be investigated relative to an audio-recorded very brief, preoperative mindfulness-based intervention delivered during the standard nurse consult and a nurse-led preoperative pain psychoeducation intervention during the standard nurse consult.
