Filter by:In order to gather enough data for meaningful statistics, a multicenter register of all flexor tendon repairs was established with surgical, clinical and rehabilitation patient data. The controlled active motion (CAM) protocol was administered in all patients after surgery. The purpose was to (i) measure surgery and therapy outcomes in the three centers and (ii) evaluate potential influencing factors on outcomes.
This project will investigate patellar tendon tissue (transmission electron microscopy of structure and protein analyses) coupled with magnetic resonance imaging (1.5T and 7T) from persons with i) chronic patellar tendinopathy (CT), ii) the earliest possible signs and symptoms of patellar tendinopathy (ET), and iii) symptom free controls (CTRL)(matched for age and physical activity/sports participation). The investigators hypothesize that 7T MRI will be able to detect more subtle changes in early tendinopathy as compared to 3T MRI, thereby taking advantage of the increased spatial resolution that can be obtained in MRI with higher field strength. Further the investigator hypothesise that alterations in the tissue will be more pronounced in the CT group compared to ET and healthy controls.
This study evaluates the addition of tramadol, or nefopam or opioid to paracetamol and ketoprofene in the treatment of pain in adults after shoulder ambulatory surgery. In a first step, 30 patients will receive tramadol as rescue analgesia in combination with paracetamol and ketoprofene, while the other will receive nefopam or opioid in a sequential analysis that will be performed every 20 patients using the QoR 40 survey.
The study will examine the association between omega-3 status and the effects of omega-3 supplementation on changes in tendon structure and recovery from tendon injuries and inflammatory markers in competitive athletes. Half of the participants will receive omega-3 in combination with vitamin E, while the other half will receive a placebo and vitamin E.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of NuShield in subjects requiring surgical tendon repair.
The purpose of this study is to measure the mechanical properties of healing Achilles tendons in humans after early controlled weightbearing, compared with a control group in a randomized, single-blinded trial. The mechanical properties are measured using radiostereophotogrammetic x-rays (RSA). Hypothesis: Early weightbearing improves mechanical properties of the healing Achilles tendon.
This study is being undertaken to verify the safety and performance of Adaprev™, a Class III medical device, when administered as a short term implant into the tendon sheath at the time of surgery, on the post-operative function of severed digital tendons. Subjects are randomised to either Adaprev or standard care and attend visits for 26 weeks following surgery. This clinical investigation will recruit 44 subjects in the UK at up to 10 clinical trial sites.
