Filter by:The hip prosthesis market is constantly growing with the number of prostheses reaching 949,000 in 2019. Along with this, there is also an increase in interest in short stems also called shortened stems. Thus on Pubmed, in 5 years, 171 publications have been listed. Thus, it seems interesting to study and analyze the performance of the shortened stem used in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology of the University Hospitals of Strasbourg and to compare them with the results of the literature.
This study aimed to examine the effect of Reiki therapy on pain, functional status and holistic well-being in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
This study investigated the effect of St. John's Wort oil on pain intensity and physical functions in people with knee osteoarthritis. This study adopted a randomized, placebo-controlled, and qualitative mixed design. The sample consisted of 60 patients randomized into intervention (n=30) and placebo control (n=30) groups. The experimental group participants were treated with St. John's Wort oil three times a week for three weeks, while the placebo control group participants were treated with olive oil three times a week for three weeks. Quantitative data were collected using a patient identification form, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews. .
The goal of this prospective study is to identify variables that can predict whether an interdisciplinary biopsychosocial intervention for patients with osteoarthritis will be successful. Using an observational design, patients admitted to this program during the 3-year period (2019-2021) will be included and data gathered during routine clinical practice at baseline and end of treatment of patients who gave informed consent, will be used. With these data a prediction model will be build and internal validation with bootstrapping will be done.
Single arm clinical investigation, post-market confirmatory interventional to assess performance, safety and tolerability of "CR500 SINGLE-DOSE GEL" medical device in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
In a multi-centric, randomized, triple-blind controlled trial, 195 patients will be separated in 2 subgroups: 130 individuals with osteoarthritis and 65 with tendinopathies. The mian question to answer are the effect of SVF on : - The clinical improvenent - The cartilage thickness evolution in case of osteoarthritis - The tendon healing in case of thendinopathy Patients will receive an initial single PRP or PRP + SVF injection followed by one- and two-months PRP doses. In parallel, they will beneficiate of a proper rehabilitation plan with active physical therapies.
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of a single autologous, intra-articular injection of MFat versus corticosteroid injection for the treatment of pain and function associated with K/L grade 2/3 knee Osteoarthritis. Participants will receive an injection of MFat or a corticosteroid.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, and is characterized by joint pain and stiffness leading to functional decline and relevant loss in quality of life. The management of knee OA is demanded to several specialists, including general practitioners, rheumatologists, orthopedics and finally geriatricians. However, the exact role of geriatricians in the management of knee OA was poorly studied, whilst the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is widely used for preventing negative consequences in older people.
The purpose of the study is to compare the short-term effectiveness of manual therapy with neuromuscular training and conventional physical therapy with neuromuscular training in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
The goal is to determine how two different injections, corticosteroid and platelet-rich plasma, are used to treat patients with knee osteoarthritis may affect a patient's pain and function. Secondarily, the investigators are also interested in knowing how the two types of injections that will be given may affect what happens in the joint cartilage. The participants will receive one of the two injection types at the initial visit. There will be surveys to complete (around 10 questions) about the participants' knee and overall function. The investigators will ask these same questions on seven separate occasions. In addition, the investigators will ask the participants to provide blood and urine samples at our clinic before the first knee injection and before any other injection that is needed over the course of the study. During the injections, synovial fluid will be aspirated from the participants' knee at the initial visit and the one month visit. If the participants decide to go to surgery to help relieve the pain from osteoarthritis at any point during the study, the investigators will collect the material from the participants' knee that would be normally discarded as medical waste. Previous studies have indicated that concentrations of inflammatory and degradative biomarkers in patient serum, urine, and synovial fluid may provide insight into OA pathophysiology. To our knowledge, no study has been performed to assess the impact of intra-articular PRP injection upon fluid concentrations of a comprehensive panel of proposed OA-related biomarkers. In this study, the investigators will evaluate the impact of intra-articular PRP injection upon markers of cartilage matrix turnover, inflammatory mediators, degradative enzymes, inhibitors of degradative enzymes, and markers of bone metabolism in serum, urine, and synovial fluid of knee OA patients.
