Osteopathia clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

NCT ID: NCT05875766 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Knee Ligament Injury

Evaluation of Osteopathic Care After Rupture of the Antero-external Cruciate Ligament of the Knee (DIDT OSTEO)

DIDT OSTEO

Start date: April 7, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The antero-external cruciate ligament (ACL) is the ligament located inside the knee, which allows the rotation of the knee by stabilizing the femur and the tibia. Rupture of the ACL is common during the practice of certain so-called "pivot" sports, whether contact or not. It is manifested by acute pain or instability of the knee, following a crack during a twist and/or a blockage of the joint. The diagnosis will be confirmed by a clinical examination and X-rays to eliminate any fracture or tearing and by MRI to visualize the ligament rupture and the associated lesions, in particular a lesion of the meniscus. Treatment is required because the ruptured ligament does not heal on its own and the rupture of the ligament may eventually promote the appearance of osteoarthritis. Two types of treatment can be considered, rehabilitation or surgery, depending on the patient's age and motivation to resume sports. There are several surgical techniques, the most common is to reconstruct the ruptured ligament by arthroscopy using a graft taken from the tendons of the Internal Rectus and Demi muscles tendinous (DIDT). Rehabilitation by physiotherapy is often started preoperatively and immediately after the operation, as soon as you wake up, to find a functional and painless knee. Functional recovery often depends on patient motivation. The main objective is to show that osteopathic care in addition to physiotherapy rehabilitation improves knee functionality in patients 6 months after reconstruction of the ACL by DIDT.
