Filter by:Although biologic therapy have revolutionized the treatment of Spondyloarthrtitis (SpA), many patients do not experience complete relief of SpA related complaints. It has been established that patients with SpA have an altered composition of microorganisms (microbiota) in the gut compared to healthy controls, and that this correlates to disease activity and respons to therapy. The goal of this randomized double-blind study is to evaluate the efficacy of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in patients with axial SpA with a suboptimal effect of biologic therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can FMT reduce disease activity in axial SpA? - Can FMT alleviate pain and reduce fatigue in axial SpA? - Is the composition of microorganisms restored to normal in patients with SpA after a treatment with FMT? Participants will receive a single treatment in the form of an enema with either donor FMT or placebo at baseline. The primary endpoint will be evaluated after 90 days, but efficacy and safety will be monitored from baseline until 365 days.
Pre- and postoperative pain in patients with degenerative stenosis requires great attention, as it can mislead the doctor about treatment tactics. Neuropathic pain in the legs before and after the surgical procedure, as well as the residual or recurrent pain syndrome existing against this background, overshadow the patient's recovery and cast doubt on the fullness of the performed decompression. Neural compression in the spinal canal and back pain may be the cause of the patient's antalgic posture and sagittal imbalance as seen on X-Ray, to need for corrective interventions surgical procedure. Thus, it is necessary to clarify the role and the influence of the pain and its type on the perioperative period in patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to develop and validate of a new protocol for multifactorial functional assessment of the kinematics of spinal and total body movements during walking by means of the optoelectronic motion analysis system in healthy and scoliosis subjects. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is feasibility developing a protocol to assess the spine kinematic during walking? - Is the intra and inter operator reliability of the developed protocol acceptable? - Is the usability of the developed protocol acceptable? During data acquisition a trained therapist placed reflective markers on the skin of the participants in the selected body landmarks. The participants will be asked to perform five trial of walking barefoot on a 6 meters distance at a self-selected normal-pace speed, for each session.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination product "Histograft", a bone substitute based on octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and plasmid DNA encoding VEGFA gene, in spinal fusion prosedure in comparison with bone autografts and synthetic material based on β-TCP
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of the stabilization exercise program applied after cervical laminoplasty surgery compared to standard exercise on pain, dysfunction, normal joint movement, proprioception, balance, muscle endurance, postural alignment and related factors (kinesiophobia, awareness, quality of life, disability, physical activity level). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does the exercise program applied after cervical laminoplasty surgery have an effect on pain, dysfunction, normal joint movement, proprioception, balance, muscle endurance, postural alignment and related factors (kinesiophobia, awareness, quality of life, disability, physical activity level)? - Does the stabilization exercise program applied after cervical laminoplasty surgery have an effect on pain, dysfunction, normal joint movement, proprioception, balance, muscle endurance, postural alignment and related factors (kinesiophobia, awareness, quality of life, disability, physical activity level)? Patients will start their first exercise session on the day they will be discharged from the hospital. Patients in both exercise groups will be provided with cervical normal joint movement (ROM), posture and patient education on the day of discharge. They will be asked to do posture exercises and neck exercises under the guidance of a physiotherapist. Patients in the stabilization exercise group (experiment) will undergo stabilization exercises under the supervision of a physiotherapist, in addition to the practices in the standard exercise group. Both groups will do a warm-up program before exercise and a cool-down program afterwards. Patients will be asked to do the exercises face to face with a physiotherapist 3 days a week. The first evaluations will be made on the day they come to the outpatient clinic for examination before surgery. Post-surgical evaluations will be made routinely after the exercise program is completed, when they are called by the physician for a check-up (6th week). Researchers will compare the standard exercise group with the stabilization exercise group to see if pain, dysfunction, normal joint movement, proprioception, balance, muscular endurance, postural alignment and related factors (kinesiophobia, awareness, quality of life, disability, physical activity level) are different.
The aim of this study is to compare patients receiving bilateral erector spinae block with ropivacaine vs control group in terms of pain score, total opioid consumption, hemodynamic changes intraoperatively, length of hospitalisation , time to ambulation post surgery and quality of recovery.
Effect of perineurial dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine on erector spinal plane block duration for spine surgery.
Previous clinical study carried out on cancer patients at IOR Spine Surgery (approved in October 2014). The carbon device is indicated in patients suffering from vertebral tumors who need stabilization and will then carry out radiotherapy, because carbon has a practically zero level of interference with ionizing radiation. Carbon also allows for better visualization of the implants on MRI/CT and X-ray. There are no studies in the literature analyzing the use of carbon fiber devices in lumbar degenerative pathologies. 118 patients suffering from degenerative spinal pathology requiring 1 or 2 levels of lumbar or lumbosacral fusion will be valutated.
This single arm clinical trial will assess whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among para-athletes living with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) is effective in improving cognitive impairment, in reducing fatigue, depression, anxiety, and overall quality of life. Further, the study will evaluate the effectiveness of CPAP therapy in improving their performance in sports and the perceived risk of injuries.
The aim is to quantify the fear of movement and quality of life of telephone education on lumbar disc herniation surgery.
