Filter by:In this study, the effects of 4-week aromatherapy massage on pain, functionality, sleep quality and menopausal symptoms will be examined in individuals diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis during menopause.
The goal of this intervention study is to assess the effect of blood flow restricted (BFR) exercise integrated into the daily work tasks among hospital workers with or at increased risk of chronic knee pain. The main questions are: Can BFR exercise integrated into the daily work tasks reduce knee pain (primary outcome) and improve function and work ability among hospital workers with or at increased risk of chronic knee pain? Participants in the intervention group will for shorts bouts during their workdays integrate BFR into their daily work tasks involving walking, whereas the control group will continue as usual.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of a 18-day balneotherapy program in the rheumatology indication in patients presented with knee osteoarthritis. The main questions of the study aims to answer are how balneotherapy improves functional incapacity and the disorders (pain, joint stiffness) induced by osteoarthritis of the knee, and thus improves patients' quality of life. Participants are randomly assigned in control or treatment (spa) groups. All receive standard of care for knee osteoarthritis throughout the study. Balneotherapy program consists of 18-days of spa treatment with Mineral Water of Saint Jean d'Angely. Functional incapacity, disorders and quality of life induced were measured at baseline and then 6 months later. Variation from baseline were compared in control and treatment groups to assess the efficacy of the balneotherapy program.
This multicenter, prospective, interventional trial is designed to assess the outcome of subjects with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) that are randomized to treatment with either genicular artery embolization (GAE) using Embosphere Microspheres or steroid injection over a period of 24 months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the articular cartilage-regenerating capacity of RHH646 in the knee as well as to assess safety and tolerability in participants with knee osteoarthritis. The treatment duration will be up to 52 weeks. The total study duration for an individual participant will be up to 62 weeks.
The goal of this observational study is to describe the impacts of COVID-19 on primary care chronic condition management in Canada within various patient populations. This will be done by analyzing primary care electronic medial record (EMR) data from the Canadian Primary Care Sentinel Surveillance Network (CPCSSN) database, including data on primary care encounters, as well as various markers for chronic conditions. The research questions to be investigated are: 1a) What are the changes to the management of chronic conditions in primary care since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic? 1b) How do these changes differ by age, health status, and socioeconomic status?
the aim of the study is to investigate the effect of deep front line myofascial release to selected exercises in patients with knee osteoarthritis
Clinical research participation percentages haven't always been fully representative of a given demographic. The goal is to find out which aspects of a clinical trial may make it more difficult for patients to take part or see it through. The data will be evaluated through different demographic lenses and identify trends that could help improve the experience of future osteoarthritis patients during clinical study.
Physical activity is recommended in the guidelines to improve pain and function in the treatment of knee OA, regardless of the severity of the disease, but still, patients rarely do enough physical activity. The choice of intervention to improve symptoms and disorders may be key to increasing the level of physical activity. Adapting physical activity to the patient's needs and preferences can improve compliance and outcomes. In a Delphi study, the only statement that received 100% support was stated as "Individualized exercise is an integral component of treatment for anyone with osteoarthritis". However, healthcare providers often recommend physical activity programs that do not place too much emphasis on the patient's preferences. The decision to engage in physical activity is multifactorial, and it is necessary to understand people's physical activity preferences better in order to increase participation and compliance. Digital health interventions have the potential to address physical inactivity as they are accessible to a large part of the population and can be delivered with high efficiency at a low cost. By enabling patient education, support for self-management, motivation, follow-up, feedback and communication, it can prevent, cure or treat many chronic conditions. These features can increase patient motivation and encourage compliance with home exercises and physical activity. Digital behavior change interventions use digital technologies (such as websites, mobile apps, SMS or wearables) to promote and maintain health and have the potential to overcome many barriers compared to in-person programs by providing cost-effective, effective, and accessible information. No study has been found in Turkey examining digital interventions or walking programs that include behavior change techniques to increase physical activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Considering environmental, cultural and economic factors in this patient group in our society, we think that walking, which we think is the most appropriate physical activity method in terms of cost, accessibility and equipment, should be a permanent behavior. Our aim in the study; To examine the effects of digitally assisted physical activity intervention on pain, functionality and exercise commitment in individuals with knee osteoarthritis.
The aim of this observational study is to investigate if there is any difference in survival rate, clinical and radiological results after total knee replacement with vitamin E-blended polyethylene in comparison to conventional polyethylene at minimum 7-year follow-up
