Active clinical trials for "Arthralgia"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether acupuncture is helpful for patients with joint pain associated with psoriasis

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of cooled radiofrequency denervation of the sacroiliac region using the SInergy System compared to conservative treatment in the treatment of sacroiliac joint pain.

This study will compare the effects of closed incision negative pressure dressing vs. standard of care silver dressing on lower limb swelling after bilateral primary total knee arthroplasty.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of different doses of JNJ-42160443 with placebo in the treatment of chronic, moderate to severe knee or hip pain in patients with a diagnosis of osteoarthritis.

The purpose of this study is to study interactions between genes, lifestyle environmental factors like foods, nutritional supplements and non-invasive medical devices and health factors that can be measured without specialized medical equipment in order to develop lifestyle recommendations tailored to individual genetics for a host of common chronic health conditions.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Intra-Articular (IA) verapamil in the treatment of joint pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Subjects will discontinue all analgesic medications for the entire duration of the study, except for acetaminophen (taken on an as needed basis at no more than 2 g/day). At visit 2, subjects who meet all entry criteria will be randomized to receive a single injection of IA verapamil or IA placebo at a ratio of 1:1. Treatments will be given with fluoroscopy or ultrasound to confirm needle placement. Subjects will be monitored for blood pressure and heart rate (sitting and standing) for at least 1 hour post-injection. Subjects will be evaluated at weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 after treatment.

A non-randomized, multi-site feasibility study to evaluate the safety of the Glyder Device in subjects with a history of lumbar facet joint disease (L2 to the sacrum) and successful neural ablation in which the facet joint is confirmed as the source of pain.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate pain relief, safety, and tolerability of a new treatment (JNJ-42160443) for moderate to severe pain of osteoarthritis of the knee in comparison to a standard pain treatment and placebo.

The main objective of the proposed research study is to determine the efficacy of [18-F] Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) in differentiating infections from other complications such as loosening in patients with painful joint prosthesis. We intend to validate and establish the necessary criteria for making such a diagnosis and determine the accuracy of the technique through comparison with other existing modalities such as white blood imaging and patient outcome. We expect that at the completion of the proposed research, the role of this novel and powerful imaging modality will be clearly defined in the management of patients with this challenging and serious complication.

Purpose: There are two goals we have for this prospective single arm study; to see an increase in the amount of gadolinium in 24 hour urine collection following each infusion treatment with Calcium and Zinc DTPA, and to see a reduction or elimination of gadolinium deposition disease (GDD) symptoms. Participants: Twenty (20) patients who are suffering from gadolinium deposition disease (GDD) Procedures: Over a series of three (3) treatment time-points patients will be treated with IV Ca-DTPA on day one, and Zn-DTPA on day two.
