Filter by:This study evaluates a Decision Aid to help patients with de Quervain's tenosynovitis decide how to treat their condition. For patients with symptoms of depression, half the participants will receive a psychological intervention (Toolkit) to improve depression and pain from de Quervain's tenosynovitis. The investigators hypothesize that both the Decision Aid and the Toolkit will be feasible, and that the Toolkit will improve pain and function compared to usual care.
Trigger finger is a common cause of hand pain and dysfunction. Its due to chronic inflammation of the flexor tendon that leads to a pulley system mismatch. Historically it has been managed either conservatively with corticosteroid injections or through a surgical release of the A1 pulley. Several corticosteroids have been used for injection- dexamethasone, methylprednisolone, triamcinolone, betamethasone, paramethasone, etc. The purpose of out study is to determine if a 0.5 cc injection of Triamcinolone 40 mg/mL will be the most effective steroid injection for the non-surgical treatment. Approximately 200 subjects will be enrolled and randomized to one of three treatment arms: Triamcinolone 40mg/mL, Triamcinolone 10mg/mL and Soluble dexamethasone 4mg/mL. Treatment success will be defined as lack of conversion to surgical treatment, or no desire to proceed with surgery during study period (3 months).
The clinical trial is a randomized control trial to compare the efficacy of a combined lidocaine and corticosteroid (CS) injection versus a corticosteroid injection (CS) alone on pain, range of motion, and patient reported outcomes for the treatment of common upper extremity tendinopathies and nerve entrapments that are often treated with a combination of these injectates.
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing two common techniques of long head of biceps tendon tenodesis in shoulder surgery. Numerous techniques of biceps tenodesis currently exist and are commonly performed. We will be comparing the tenodesis procedure using a suture anchor device versus a technique where the tendon is simply sutured to the pectoralis major tendon.
The primary objective of this study is to compare local corticosteroid hand and elbow injections to placebo or ketorolac to determine if there is an equal or better reduction of symptoms for common orthopaedic upper extremity disorders including: De Quervain's tenosynovitis, trigger fingers, and tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis). The investigators will enroll 780 subjects, divided equally into three arms for each disease process, and compare the efficacy of Ketorolac injections to Dexamethasone injections by measuring patient's functional status scores and pain scores at 0 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 month followup periods, prospectively over time.
The investigators aim to perform a prospective study to evaluate the effectiveness of blind corticosteroid injections to US-guided injections for the treatment of de Quervain's disease. The results of the study will be used to validate current injection protocols or support the incorporation of ultrasonography to treat the disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety two oral doses of etoricoxib (60 mg and 90 mg) daily in acute soft tissue rheumatism affecting the shoulder.
