Filter by:This study will examine the effectiveness of a single cortisone injection in patients with shoulder osteoarthritis over a 6-month period, and identify clinical and radiographic factors to help predict how a patient with shoulder osteoarthritis will respond to a cortisone injection utilizing ultrasound guidance.
Randomized controlled trial regarding the efficacy of a multimodal topical analgesic, Multiprofen, in comparison to placebo cream treatment on knee pain and function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
AposTherapy is a home based exercise program utilizing footwear that causes exercise with normal activity that may significantly improve function in patients with knee osteoarthritis since patients with knee osteoarthritis have altered mechanics of motion contributing or due to the presence of the conditions. Capitalizing on the reported excellent adherence and clinical benefit of ApostTherapy in patients with significant knee OA, the investigators propose to evaluate this as a conservative treatment that may supplant/supplement traditional pain medications and physical therapy in an at-risk urban inner city population.
A prospective, interventional, randomized, double-arm clinical evaluation study to examine the efficacy of AposTherapy® versus a control group, in the short-term at 6 months and in the long-term at 12 months post-treatment, with the primary efficacy assessment based on improvement in knee pain score and improvement in function in patients following diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis (OA).
To assess the efficacy and safety of high concentration capsaicin patches in pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee in patients with obesity
This is a prospective clinical study designed to observe the long-term clinical outcomes of total knee arthroplasty using a patient-specific, posterior stabilized implant in patients with osteoarthritis.
This study is designed to compare outcome data for patients who have recently undergone surgery with the iTotal® Posterior Stabilizing (PS) Knee Replacement System (hereafter referred to as the "iTotal") versus those who have undergone surgery with Off-the-Shelf (OTS) systems.
Individuals with painful knee osteoarthritis (OA) experience restricted physical function. Few previous studies have investigated comprehensive sets of constructs and tests to investigate physical function in these patients. Most single studies of knee OA patients show limited scope for explaining physical function in the perspective of WHO's International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) 3 levels: Body functions (the bodily level), Activities (individual level), and Participation (societal level). On the bodily level there is limited case-control knowledge on muscle strength beyond the knee and endurance-strength in general. On the activity level, there is similar limitation of biomechanical bodily features in stair climbing. On the participation level the situation is similar for objective performance. Measures are needed that inter-relate all three levels of ICF. These should also include well discriminating tests e.g. knee strength, walking, and activities of daily life (ADL), as well as both objective and subjective measures. The purpose of this study is to explore mechanisms that can explain physical function in patients with knee OA in primary care. The study's main and primary goal is to quantify which baseline factors and change scores are the strongest predictors of a positive treatment outcome in terms of patients' global perceived change after physiotherapy. Secondary research question is: which factors are the strongest predictors of a positive outcome of physiotherapy in knee OA, in terms of pain intensity, patient specific functional scale, and function in daily living?
The purpose of this phase 2, randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel group, multicentre study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of a compound ONO-4474 in patients with moderate to severe pain due to osteoarthritis of the knee following 4 weeks of oral administration of ONO-4474.
Study to collect outcomes data for patients who are undergoing an Exactech Optetrak® primary total knee replacement using the Exactech Guided Personalized Surgery (eGPS®) manufactured or distributed by (Exactech, Gainesville, Florida, USA).
