Filter by:The aim of our study is to investigate the effectiveness of Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMT) versus placebo on pain, quality of life, shoulder function and isokinetic assessment, and muscle strength in the treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome.
Study aiming at determining the efficacy of eccentric versus concentric exercises for improving tendon biological characteristics, pain, and shoulder overall function for rotator cuff tendinopathy in patients with Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Moreover, investigation the relationship between RA activity and the severity of rotator cuff tendinopathy. Patients will be randomly assigned into either concentric or eccentric exercise group. Randomizations will be done using computer random generated numbers.
This study was conducted to compare the efficacy of two different therapeutic bands in symptomatic rotator cuff tendinopathy. One of the tapes was kinesio tape and the other was dynamic tape. The study was in a parallel group randomized controlled trial design.
The current historical phase and the growing need for rehabilitation in the world make tele-rehabilitation systems, and e-Health in general, fundamental tools for increasing patient engagement and compliance with care, crucial elements for the preservation of the NHS from a perspective expenditure review and resource optimization. In particular, the rehabilitation patient has on average an adherence to the Home Exercise Program (HEP) between 30-50%, to which is frequently added a reduced effectiveness of motor learning due to the lack of feedback on the accuracy of the gesture, as is the case. it happens in the hospital or outpatient setting under the supervision of a therapist. The new computational approaches for the analysis of data on human movement, aimed at the development of algorithms to automatically supervise the accuracy of the patient's gesture during home self-treatment exercise such as those based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), especially those of the latest generation, called sub-symbolics (or connectionists) can help. Among the most promising approaches are. Given the importance of the Home Exercise Program in shoulder disease, it was decided to select a population of patients affected by the main pathologies affecting this joint. The main objective of the study is to create and validate a software tool for the automatic and expert analysis of the correct execution of the main rehabilitation exercises for the functional recovery of the shoulder following orthopedic pathologies.
The objective of this study is to determine if a pillow sleep aid improves sleep quality in the short term for patients who have shoulder pain from a rotator cuff injury and are being managed non-operatively.
Rotator cuff injuries are the most common cause of shoulder disability and is increasingly more prevalent in the aging population. Rotator cuff repair has long been the mainstay of treatment for symptomatic full-thickness tears and medium to large partial thickness tears that do no improve with nonoperative therapies. Approximately 32% of the US population is Vitamin D deficient. This is important for many health reasons, but specifically, Vitamin D has been found to play a critical role in bone mineralization and fracture healing/prevention. There is emerging data to support Vitamin D's role in regulating the inflammatory response throughout the body, which includes soft tissue (i.e. tendons) healing. The role of Vitamin D in tendon to bone healing has yet to be fully investigated, yet it is reasonable to conclude that normal blood levels of Vitamin D would optimize the setting for healing in rotator cuff repair. The investigators hypothesize that Vitamin D deficient patients undergoing shoulder rotator cuff repair will experience more positive outcomes and decreased complications when supplemented with Vitamin D3, compared to Vitamin D deficient patients who do not receive supplementation. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the positive effect of Vitamin D3 in rotator cuff repair healing and patient reported outcomes in patients who are Vitamin D deficient
This is a multicenter, retrospective and prospective, non-controlled post market surveillance study. The objectives of this study are to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the T.E.S.S.® Version 3 Anatomic and Reverse Modular Total shoulder prosthesis and its instrumentation.
This is a post-market surveillance study on Medacta Shoulder System
Management of massive rotator cuff tears (MRCT) is associated with high rates of failure. The long head of the biceps tendon augmentation (LHBTA) by reinforcement of the reconstruction and additional blood supply may improve healing and provide better outcome than partial repair only.
The study aims to evaluate the effect of low load resistance training combined with blood flow restriction or sham blood flow restriction in patients with anterior knee pain and rotator cuff related shoulder pain in a cross-over two-arm randomized, participant and assessor blinded design. More specifically, we aim to investigate the acute and short-term hypoalgesic response (by evaluating pressure pain detection thresholds) of low load exercise with blood flow restriction or sham blood flow restriction, the effect of these interventions in pain during clinical testing, and the possibility of a placebo effect.
