Filter by:The objectives of this study are to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the Anaverse™ Glenoid System and its instrumentation by analysis of standard scoring systems, radiographs and adverse event records.
The objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of mindfulness/meditation using the Headspace App on post-operative pain and opioid consumption in patients after arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs, biceps tenodesis, and Mumford procedures.
The study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) augmented with REGENETEN in subjects requiring full-thickness rotator cuff tear repair or revision repair versus Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair alone.
The purpose of this study is to compare the functional outcomes of patients with shoulder pathology treated with either ketorolac or corticosteroid injections, in a randomized double-blinded study. Investigators will compare the effectiveness of ketorolac compared to corticosteroid. Specific Aim 1: Hypothesis 1: Injection of the shoulder (in the subacromial space) with Ketorolac will be more effective than corticosteroid injection for the treatment of a variety of shoulder pathologies. The risks associated with this study primarily concern adverse reactions to the study drugs. The drugs used in this study are not narcotics or habit-forming but can have side effects. The patient's physician will screen for any heart, intestinal, or kidney disease or condition that would increase the chance for the patient to have an unwanted side effect.
To report the outcomes of a series of patients with recurrent anterior and/or posterior shoulder instability who underwent surgical repair of the affected labrum using the SureLock all-suture anchor.
Total arthroplasty surgery of the shoulder is performed under general anesthesia. Pain control for after the surgery can be achieved purely with intravenous and oral pain medication or in combination with freezing of the nerves. Nerve freezing (nerve block) placed before surgery has the potential to substantially reduce the amount of inhaled anesthetic given to the patient during surgery. This can benefit the patient by minimizing the opioid usage after surgery and also reduce cost to the system in terms of duration of hospital stay. The purpose of the study is to investigate whether the inclusion of a nerve block to the general anesthetic for total shoulder arthroplasty surgery will also reduce the amount of inhaled anesthetic and thereby lowering the environmental footprint from the anesthetic. The investigators of the proposed study plan to quantify the amount of inhaled anesthetic used for each case and will compare how the consumption is affected by whether the nerve block is applied before or after surgery. Patients will have a nerve block catheter (interscalene catheter) placed under ultrasound-guidance prior to the induction of general anesthetic by an experienced regional anesthesiologist. The nerve block catheter will be bolused with a solution to which the anesthesiologist is blinded which will either be local anesthetic or normal saline (sham). The general anesthetic will be conducted according to a the protocol with the aim of maintaining a standard anesthetic depth monitored by patient state index (PSI). Measurements of the MAC-Value (minimum alveolar concentration) of inhaled anesthetic will be recorded every five minutes and the total amount of volatile anesthetic (in ml and ml/kg) will be noted down by a blinded observer. At the end of the case the anesthesiologist blinded to the solution will inject another solution (now a saline (sham) or local anesthetic before the patient is woken up.
Subjects received perioperative hAMSC treatment in order to accelerate the healing of the surgically repaired rotator cuff and increase the mechanical properties of the tendon, according to inclusion and exclusion criteria (see below). Each patient will undergo post-operative follow-up at 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after the surgery. This will include a visual analogue score for pain (VAS), a questionnaire for the subjective Constant shoulder score, and the subjective questions of the University of California (UCLA) score. Preoperative and postoperative MRI at 12 months will be done to evaluate the quality of the rotator cuff repair.
Demonstrate that REGENETEN is superior to standard repair techniques when surgically treating high-grade (>50%) partial-thickness tears because REGENETEN preserves more of the native tendon footprint resulting in less postoperative pain and faster recovery.
This study was designed to compare the clinical outcomes of a mixed home-based rehabilitation program after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, incorporating face-to-face sessions as well as sessions performed with a novel digital kinematic biofeedback system against conventional in-person home-based rehabilitation, with the intent of reducing the need for face-to-face sessions. The investigators hypothesize that the clinical outcomes of such a program will be at least similar to those of conventional rehabilitation. Patients will be enrolled pre-operatively and then randomized into 2 groups: experimental group and conventional rehabilitation group. Both groups will perform a 12 to 16-week rehabilitation program starting immediately after surgery. Outcomes will be measured at baseline, 8 and 12 weeks. In patients where a decision is made to extend the program to 16 weeks, another assessment will be made at this point.
The aim of this study is to investigate the early stage effectiveness of multimodal physical therapy with exercise in the conservative treatment of partial thickness rotator cuff tears.
