Evaluation of Non-Surgical and Arthroscopic Treatment for Hip Microinstability

Musculoskeletal AbnormalitiesHip Injuries

Microinstability of the hip joint is an important cause of hip pain and reduced hip function in young and active individuals. Hip microinstability is due to extraphysiologic hip motion and could be secondary to acetabular dysplasia, connective tissue disorder, macrotrauma, microtrauma, iatrogenic- and idiopathic causes. Treatment for hip microinstability is initiated with non-surgical treatment consisting of physiotherapy aimed mainly at stability. If non-surgical treatment fails, surgery with arthroscopic plication of the hip joint capsule is the preferred method. This study evaluates non-surgical and arthroscopic treatment for hip microinstability regarding hip function and adverse events.

The investigators' pre-clinical study confirms the positive effects of combined treatment (VT + HMB) on reducing fat-to-lean tissue ratio, intramuscular fat infiltration and increasing muscle strength in sarcopenia animal model. The results showed that fat mass could be decreased by ~32%, while histology Oil Red O staining indicated a decrease of fat by almost 60%; in contrast, lean muscle mass increased by ~14%. On muscle strength, combined treatment increased twitch force, tetanic force and grip strength by ~30-66%. These in vivo results are very encouraging and the investigators should explore its potential in clinical translation. As VT and HMB supplement have been commercially available and their compliance rates are satisfactory, they can be translated to clinical application easily. The investigators' next step is to confirm its clinical efficacy, so that sarcopenia becomes a new indication of VT and HMB. The hypothesis is that combined treatment of VT and HMB can retard the progression of sarcopenia in human, in terms of muscle mass, muscle strength and performance.

Musculoskeletal; Anomaly

The hypothesis of this study is that musculoskeletal point of care ultrasonography would support the GP's decision and ultimately improve patient management. The aim of this study is to evaluate, in the context of suspected musculoskeletal abnormality, the contribution of musculoskeletal point of care ultrasonography to the general practitioner's overall decision-making strategy, defined according to the following 5 axes: diagnosis (I), therapy (II), patient orientation (III), prescription of complementary examinations (IV) and follow-up (V).

Reliability and Acceptability of Real-time Virtual Video Pediatric Gait, Arms, Legs and Spine (V-pGALS)...

Musculoskeletal AbnormalityPediatric

The use of telemedicine in musculoskeletal assessment has been historically low. The current COVID 19 global pandemic has forced a paradigm shift with many centers rapidly adopting virtual visits to conduct care resulting in rapid expansion of use of telemedicine amongst practices. Mayoclinic has published The Telemedicine Musculoskeletal Examination for adults. Paediatric Musculoskeletal Matters (PMM) has put video Pediatric Gait, Arms, Legs and Spine (V-pGALS) assessment sheet on their website. However, there is a lack of the acceptability and reliability of these tools. The aim of this study is to investigate acceptability and reliability of real-time virtual video Pediatric Gait, Arms, Legs and Spine (V-pGALS) assessment for musculoskeletal assessment of children for telemedicine visits.

Cross-Disciplinary Workplace Intervention Strategy for Chronic Musculoskeletal Disorders

Back PainNeck Pain1 more

Sickness absenteeism caused by MSDs is a persistent and expensive health challenge in all industrial countries including Switzerland. Despite much progress as to the cause and prevention of MSDs, they continue to be some of the most prevalent and challenging health problems with respect to the work-place and to socio-economic burden. To improve the situation, several recent reviews recommended interventions based on the bio-psycho-social model. Work-hardening and industrial rehabilitation programs focused more on the in balance between physical and mental demands of work on one side and capacities of the individual on the other side. Therefore we propose to merge the two models into one. The result is an interdisciplinary intervention strategy witch includes work hardening, medical trainings, a cognitive behavioural approach and work place intervention.
