Filter by:A Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) Study to collect clinical data on safety and performance of all TEKNIMED Spine range of products: SPINEFIX, HIGH V+, OPACITY+ and F20 bone cements and mixing and injection systems, and all their private labels. TEKNIMED bone cements are legacy products, some marketed for more than 10 years. Their performance and safety have already been demonstrated by Post-Market Surveillance and previous clinical studies. The current Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to confirm these claims by collecting data in a "real-life" setting. The study is a retrospective and prospective global, single arm, non-controlled, multicentric, prospective observational study. Patients will be followed as per local standard medical care of the sites.
The purpose of this randomized double-blind clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in relieving severe pain in patients with MRI-verified acute or sub-acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) compared to sham as well as examine the socio-economic implications associated with performing vertebroplasty. The primary outcome is improvement of pain intensity as measured on a Visual Analog Scale (VAS, 0 to100) 12 weeks after treatment. Secondary outcomes include patient-reported back-related disability, patient-reported quality of life, spinal sagittal balance, complications associated with the procedure, incidence of new OVCFs and socioeconomic costs.
Study of prevalence of subclinical vertebral fractures in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Ankylosing spondylitis
Study is a prospective observational, performed in the context of normal clinical practice, of patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures identified as candidates for kyphoplasty treatment with porous trabecular titanium microspheres (see whether to put commercial name and company). The study does not involve any interference with the patient's diagnostic-therapeutic course The objective of the study is the clinical-radiological evaluation of the efficacy of kyphoplasty treatment with trabecular porous titanium spheres in terms of pain control and reduction of kyphotic deformity following fracture. Further evaluation of the safety of the treatment in terms of absence of intraoperative adverse events and material-related toxicity.
in recent years the search for therapeutic protocols that could enhance the VFFs healing, thus reducing bed rest-related complications and improving the quality of life of osteoporotic patients. In this context, biophysical stimulation with Capacitively Coupling Electric Fields (CCEF) together, antiresorptive therapy, vitamin D supplementation, and analgesic drugs could play a central role. CCEF is a non-invasive type of biophysical stimulation used to enhance fracture repair and spinal fusion. Positive effects of CCEF have been reported in osteoporotic vertebral fractures to resolve chronic pain and in postoperative pain, disability, and quality of life after spinal fusion In a preliminary observational study, Piazzolla et al. showed a significantly faster VBME resolution and back pain improvement in patients suffering from VFFs.
It is well known that some chronic respiratory pathologies such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis, due to the pathology itself and the therapies implemented (per-os or inhaled corticosteroids). Osteoporosis leads to an increased risk of fragility fracture, with an increased morbidity and mortality associated with severe fractures such as vertebral fractures. Also, osteoporotic vertebral fractures often occur at the thoracolumbar hinge, resulting in worsening of the thoracic kyphosis. However, to the best of our knowledge, the prevalence of osteoporotic vertebral fractures measured by CT scan in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is not known. For these patients who already have impaired respiratory function, the appearance of vertebral fractures could impact their management and worsen their prognosis (additional restrictive syndrome, difficulties in analgesics management because of respiratory contraindications, difficulties in wearing a corset, etc...). In this context, it appears interesting to define the prevalence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic vertebral fractures at the thoracic spine and the thoraco-lumbar hinge in a population of patients followed for ILD. So, the main objective of this study is to describe the prevalence of vertebral osteoporotic fractures in an overall cohort of patients with ILD.
The aim of this research is to examine the effects of the anesthesia method and preoperative characteristics on postoperative results and complications in patients who underwent percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP). Method: Patients were split into three groups according to anesthesia methods: (1) General Anesthesia (Sedation), (2) Central Block (Spinal and Epidural Anesthesia), (3) Peripheral Block [Erector Spina Plane Block (ESPB), and Paravertebral Block (PVB)]. Patients' pain values, hemodynamic parameters, additional need for sedation, and perioperative and postoperative complications were recorded prospectively together with Visual Pain Scales (VAS).
Physiotherapy has an important place in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral fractures. Therapeutic exercise is often recommended for patients with vertebral fractures to reduce pain and restore functional movement. There is not enough evidence in the literature to determine the effects of long-term exercise on osteoporotic fractures and their side effects. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of 12-week exercise training in patients with osteoporotic vertebral fractures.
A prospective study to determine how low bone mineral density and/or vertebral compression fractures associate with pain in adults with sickle cell disease
In the present feasibility and pilot study we aim to investigate the effect and safety of patient education with or without additional physical training or mindfulness/medical yoga in patients with manifest spinal osteoporosis (at least one vertebral fracture). The study includes a 10-week intervention period with once weekly theory education with or without additional physical training or mindfulness/medical yoga (randomized groups). Furthermore, a proceeding observation period of 10 weeks as well as a 1-year follow up post-intervention observation are included in the study design.
