Filter by:RESTORE tests whether Augmented-FLS, where patients are contacted by a patient navigator (serving as the liaison) and referred to a bone health provider, is better than Enhanced Usual Care, which includes patient and PCP education and activation. We also aim to determine the influence of age, race, ethnicity, sex, poverty level, geographic region, and timing of entry into the trial after a fracture on the effectiveness of the two strategies.
In this project, IDEAL-IQ technology and PDFF and R2* image-based imaging methods are used to analyze the intrinsic relationship between preoperative vertebral bone marrow fat content, magnetic susceptibility properties of bone tissue and bone strength (bone volume and bone mass), to explore the mechanism of vertebral re-fracture after PVP / PKP, and to explore the imaging markers for the risk of postoperative vertebral re-fracture after PVP / PKP. To construct a precise and individualized risk assessment model of vertebral re-fracture after PVP/ PKP by combining clinical risk factors, preoperative quantitative MRI parameters (PDFF, R2*) and imaging characteristics, so as to achieve the goal of objectively and accurately evaluating the risk of vertebral re-fracture at the early stage of the postoperative period (1 year).
A Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) Study to collect clinical data on safety and performance of all TEKNIMED Spine range of products: SPINEFIX, HIGH V+, OPACITY+ and F20 bone cements and mixing and injection systems, and all their private labels. TEKNIMED bone cements are legacy products, some marketed for more than 10 years. Their performance and safety have already been demonstrated by Post-Market Surveillance and previous clinical studies. The current Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to confirm these claims by collecting data in a "real-life" setting. The study is a retrospective and prospective global, single arm, non-controlled, multicentric, prospective observational study. Patients will be followed as per local standard medical care of the sites.
The goal of this retrospective/observational study is to compare the clinical outcomes between the high-cumulative-dose group and the low- cumulative-dose group of oral/inhaled corticosteroid in the long-term management of asthma patients. The main hypothesis are: i. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid is related to the prevalence of osteoporosis/osteoporosis in the long-term management of adult asthma. ii. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid can affect populations that have a high-risk of osteoporosis (females over 50 years of age). iii. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid is related to the prevalence of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia in the long-term management of adult asthma. iv. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid affects bone metabolism-related diagnostic tests and laboratory values and the prescription rate of bone metabolism-related medications.
The purpose of this randomized double-blind clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in relieving severe pain in patients with MRI-verified acute or sub-acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) compared to sham as well as examine the socio-economic implications associated with performing vertebroplasty. The primary outcome is improvement of pain intensity as measured on a Visual Analog Scale (VAS, 0 to100) 12 weeks after treatment. Secondary outcomes include patient-reported back-related disability, patient-reported quality of life, spinal sagittal balance, complications associated with the procedure, incidence of new OVCFs and socioeconomic costs.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the new bone formation around a metal device in the femoral head in patients with osteoporotic hip fractures undergoing surgical treatment with nails. These surgeries have a high risk of fixation failure in patients with osteoporosis due to low bone quality. The main question we aim to answer are whether promoting new bone formation around the implant is possible with a bone graft substitute (CERAMENT™ Bone Void Filler) and systemic osteoporosis drug (zoledronic acid) combination, which can strengthen the surgical fixation of the fracture. Participants will consist of patients suffering hip fracture and already scheduled for surgical treatment with a nail. One group will undergo conventional surgery. While the other group will also undergo the same surgery, they will receive CERAMENT™ Bone Void Filler around the implant as a short, extra step during surgery. This will allow the researchers to see whether new bone is formed during a 6-month follow-up.
The aim of this observational study is to assess the obstacles and levers to the continuation of anti-osteoporotic treatment, and to identify those where action could be taken to improve the quality of care for fractured patients. The individual and collective stakes are high. Fracture is the most feared complication of osteoporosis. The current under-diagnosis and under-treatment of this chronic pathology exposes patients to a high risk of early re-fracture, with the associated morbidity and mortality. General practitioners have a major role to play in monitoring and coordinating patients' healthcare pathways. The aim of this study is to assess ways of improving osteoporosis management in order to improve quality of life and disability-free life expectancy for individual patients. The public health and economic stakes are equally high. It is by identifying the obstacles that prospective work on the key elements to be implemented could help optimize osteoporosis management.
This observational study aims to learn about the psychosocial risk factors of osteoporosis (OP) patients. The main question it aims to answer is: - Which biopsychosocial factors affect OP patients' fragility fracture risk regarding the health behaviour model? Participants will fulfil these forms below here; - Sociodemographic and Clinical Information Form, - Fragility Fracture Information Form - Medication Adherence Report Scale - Brief Illness Perception Scale - The Beliefs About the Medicines Scale-Specific - The Short Assessment of Patient Satisfaction - Perceived Stress Scale - Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale - Brief Symptom Inventory - Depression and Anxiety - Health Behavior Assessment Scale
Men sustain over one-third of osteoporosis-related fractures worldwide. The burden of osteoporotic fractures in older men is substantial, and men suffer significantly worse fracture-related outcomes than women. Following a fracture, men sustain greater rates of subsequent fractures, loss of autonomy, and mortality than women and the imminent risk of re-fracture is several times higher in men than in women. Functional mobility, known to predict falls and fractures, is also notably worse in men following a fracture. In the fiscal year 2007-08, the overall annual costs of osteoporosis in Canadian men was evaluated to be $910 million. Osteoporosis is primarily considered a disease of older women, and men are remarkably under-evaluated and under-treated for it. Recognition of sex and gender influences on skeletal health in men has been very slow; akin to the gap in cardiovascular diseases, where women are far less likely to receive guideline-recommended investigations and treatment. Over 85% of Canadian men who suffer from fragility fractures do not receive osteoporosis screening and/or treatment strategies. The existence of this care gap in men underscores our current struggle to overcome important barriers including: 1) men's lack of awareness of the critical impact of osteoporosis and fractures on several aspects of their lives, and of the benefits of treatment; and 2) the absence of comprehensive and accessible treatments tailored to men. Informed by the Knowledge-to-Action framework, we aim to address these barriers by adapting interventions with proven efficacy to engage men at high fracture risk in health behaviour change. The current protocol is for a pilot RCT to determine the feasibility of recruitment and retention, adherence to, and acceptability of the virtually-delivered fracture prevention intervention only. Our long-term goal is to conduct a large pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) to address the research question: In older adults at high risk for fractures who self-identify as men, does anti-osteoporosis pharmacotherapy in conjunction with a virtually-delivered intervention that includes a gender-tailored strength training and balance based exercise program and nutritional counselling, improve functional mobility compared to anti-osteoporosis pharmacotherapy in conjunction with an attention control intervention.
This project anchors osteoporotic fractures, conduct registration and follow-up studies, and conduct prospective treatment studies. By registering for follow-up studies on osteoporotic fractures, it is planned to obtain epidemiological data through registration and follow-up studies; A prospective treatment study for patients with osteoporotic fractures is planned to explore effective treatment strategies through randomized controlled trials; To study biomarkers for osteoporotic refractures, we plan to establish a biomarker warning model through multi omics research; To study imaging biomarkers for osteoporotic refractures, a new imaging technology is proposed to establish an imaging omics warning model.
