Filter by:Determining the factors affecting hand function after upper limb injuries is very important for maintaining independence in daily living activities. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between core stability and hand function in patients undergoing rotator cuff surgery and to compare the results with healthy patients of a similar age. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between core stability and hand function in patients undergoing artroscopic cuff surgery.
The use of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has increased dramatically in the United States in recent years. The importance of postoperative physical therapy in the setting of anatomic total shoulder is well understood and explored in the literature. The literature describing postoperative physical therapy for RSA, however, is scarce and somewhat limited to the field of physiatry in the form of clinical commentary on rehabilitation programs.In addition, the use of formal in-person therapy versus physician-guided home therapy has been explored in total shoulder arthroplasty, demonstrating similar post-operative range of motion and patient-reported outcome (PROs) between groups. Furthermore, previous research into "telerehabilitation" or remote physical therapy through a video-based platform has demonstrated noninferiority in outcomes in multiple orthopedic procedures, including hip and knee arthroplasty and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Telehealth therapy has not yet been formally evaluated in a randomized approach for reverse or anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty. Given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, emphasis on social distancing, and multiple states having issued "stay at home" orders, a study into the effectiveness of telerehabilitation on current postoperative outcomes in shoulder arthroplasty may influence postoperative management and allow patients an alternative route for rehabilitation that allows more flexibility in completing, as well as limits potentially extraneous travel and exposure. The project will be a randomized control trial evaluating formal in-person physical therapy versus telerehabilitation after shoulder arthroplasty. Patients who undergo shoulder arthroplasty will complete either formal physical therapy or telerehabilitation postoperatively. The aim will be to identify any differences in shoulder range of motion, pain, or patient-reported outcome measures (PROs) between those who complete in-person physical therapy versus telerehabilitation therapy.
This observational study is conducted in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the primary total shoulder arthroplasty with the Permedica's MIRAI Modular Shoulder Prosthesis System on the general population of patients who are about to undergo this surgery for every indication. Patients requiring a revision shoulder arthroplasty will not be enrolled. The effectiveness will be evaluated in terms of recovery of shoulder function and stability of the prosthetic implant. The incidence of complications, adverse and serious adverse events will also be studied. Additional study aim is to evaluate a medium/long term survival of the prosthesis. The duration of the study per single subject is 5 years.
The primary objective of this study is to compare outcomes between formal clinic based physical therapy (PT) rehabilitation and surgeon directed home therapy (HT) after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) as measured by pain, range of motion, Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation (SANE), and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (ASES) scores at 6 weeks, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively. The secondary objective of this study is to determine if PT rehabilitation following RSA is associated with a higher level of postoperative complications, specifically acromial stress fractures or dislocation. This information will be useful to discern if PT is effective in providing pain relief more quickly, as well as improved motion and self-reported functional outcomes following RSA, which can assist surgeons and rehabilitation specialists in designing optimal care plans for this patient population. The project will also help to clarify if PT services place patients who have RSA at higher risk for acromial stress fractures or dislocation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate reverse total shoulder arthroplasty patients preoperative objective measurements and operative objective measurements to determine if there is any effect to postoperative outcomes. Patients who were 18 years old or greater at the time of surgery were followed clinically and radiographically to determine best practice and optimal treatment and technique, risk and rate of complication, and postoperative outcomes.
To compare bridging reconstruction to superior capsular reconstruction using human dermal allograft augmentation for repair of massive rotator cuff tears.
This study is a retrieval of database information regarding survivorship of the Comprehensive Shoulder System family of products. The primary objective of the retrieval is to collect data that will contribute to the post market surveillance requirements for this product and will provide feedback to design engineers, support marketing efforts and publications, and answer potential questions form reimbursement agencies.
Shoulder arthroplasty is a reliable procedure for the treatment of severe shoulder joint diseases to relieve pain and restore shoulder function. Shoulder implants commonly used are characterised by a humeral stem and complications related to the stem are not infrequent. These include: bone stock loss, intraoperative and postoperative break around the implant, malpositioning of the humeral component and difficult eradication of infections inside the bone around the implant. With the aim of reducing stem-related complications, a novel prosthesis characterised by a stem-less design has been developed. The objective of this study is therefore to explore how well people recover after shoulder replacement with this novel stem-less shoulder prosthesis. This will be assessed over 5 years in three different countries in Europe using patient completed questionnaires and clinical and radiographic assessments.
This will be a randomized controlled trial to determine if postoperative ibuprofen after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair impacts postoperative opiate medication use, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores, shoulder range of motion (ROM), and repair integrity.
The purpose of this study is to obtain outcomes data on the Anatomical Shoulder™ Inverse/Reverse System by analysis of standard scoring systems and radiographs. Outcome data will be collected using the following standard scoring systems of which summary statistics will be provided: - Constant and Murley Score to evaluate clinical parameters such as range of motion, power, level of pain and functional ability. - SF-12 Physical and Mental Health Summary Measures (SF12 Questionnaire) comprising of twelve questions to assess the subject's physical and mental health status which must be answered by the patient.
