Disjunction Between Patient Narrative and Formulaic Thinking in the Doctor

Musculoskeletal Diseases

This study is seeking whether giving or not giving a clinician a card with talking points in the form of a checklist about the patient's story affects the patients care experience or not

Pilot Project for Direct Access to Physical Therapy

Musculoskeletal Diseases

The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the effect of publicly subsidized physiotherapy for all patients receiving general treatment in physiotherapy clinics with an official provider number. This study will evaluate effects on physical and mental health, number of consultations in physiotherapy; number of contacts with general practitioner; referrals to diagnostic imaging; number of contacts with specialists within rheumatology, neurology and orthopedics and patient satisfaction.

Virtual Phone Visits Compared to In-Person Physical Visits for Post-Operative Follow-Up at a Sports...

Patient SatisfactionSports Injury2 more

This study will compare patient reported outcomes (PROs) and patient satisfaction scores of patients seen at virtual phone visits with patients seen at in-person visits for post-operative follow up at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months at a sports medicine clinic. This study will determine if there is a difference in PROs and satisfaction scores between these two groups of patients. The investigators hypothesize patients who are seen during a virtual phone visit will report different PRO and patient satisfaction scores compared to patients who are seen during an in-person visit for post-operative follow-up at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6-months.

Strength Training for Osteoporosis Prevention During Early Menopause

Bone LossBone Loss3 more

The goal of this clinical pilot trial is to learn about the feasibility of a high-intensity resistance training intervention in peri- and early menopausal females. The main question it aims to answer are: -Is a 9-month resistance training intervention feasible (e.g., recruitment rates, protocol adherence, attrition) Secondary aims include examining changes in bone health, muscle strength, and menopausal symptoms. Participants will participate in a 9-month progressive, supervised, resistance training intervention. Researchers will compare secondary outcomes between the exercise group and a wait-list control group.

The Inland Norway Healthy Life Center Study

Non-Communicable Chronic DiseasesObesity4 more

Healthy Life Centers (Norwegian, 'Frisklivssentralen') is a municipal service in Norway that aims to promote both physical and mental health, as well as to limit the development of non-communicable diseases. Previous research has shown that receiving follow-up from Healthy Life Centers has led to higher levels of daily physical activity, in addition to improved self-reported health and quality of life among the participants. However, there is a lack of studies that have examined what kind of physiological health effects can be expected from participating in the Healthy Life Center's follow-up. In this study, responses to the 12-week physical activity program of the Healthy Life Center will be compared with the responses in a negative control group that does not receive such follow-up. Both the intervention group and the reference group (the negative control group) will carry out the same tests and measurements before and after the 12 week period. The tests will include measurements of anthropometric variables (body height, body weight and waist circumference), body composition, arterial stiffness, resting blood pressure and blood variables (blood glucose, long-term blood glucose, blood lipid profile and inflammation markers), in addition to physical tests of mobility, balance, maximum aerobic capacity (maximal oxygen consumption) and maximum muscle strength. Questionnaires related to adherence to the Healthy Life Center follow-up, socio-demographic variables, eating and drinking habits, activity level, perceived physical fitness, motivation for exercise, and health-related quality of life will also be included.

Training of Falling Techniques on Landing Mechanics

Sports InjuryOrthopedic Disorder2 more

The overall purpose of this study is to quantify the effect and retention of one-week training of falling techniques on landing biomechanics associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) loading compared to soft-landing techniques in young recreational athletes. The secondary purpose is to assess the safety of the training program. Aim 1: To quantify the effect of one-week training of falling techniques on landing biomechanics during forward, lateral, vertical, and diagonal landings compared to soft-landing techniques. We hypothesize that falling techniques will result in increased knee flexion angles and decreased landing forces, knee abduction and internal rotation angles, and knee moments for all landing directions compared to soft-landing techniques immediately after the training. Aim 2: To assess the retention effects of the falling techniques on landing biomechanics compared to soft landings. We hypothesize that the effects of falling techniques on ACL loading variables will be more highly retained compared to soft-landing techniques two weeks after the training. Aim 3: To identify the safety of the training program. We hypothesize that participants can complete the training without suffering minor, moderate, or major injuries, while occasional minor bruises might be observed.

Metallosis on Tissues and Serum Metal Levels in Children

Orthopedic DisorderRetained Metal Implant

Slightly elevated blood metal levels have been found in adults undergoing hip and knee replacement. It is unknown whether pediatric patients with metal implant(plates/screws/rods) have elevated blood metal levels. This may have an impact on practice if children have high blood metal levels with routine orthopedic implants. If researchers find elevated metal levels, they may recommend patients to have the plates removed or may switch to a different type of metal. Further work on this topic is needed.

Digital Care Programs for Musculoskeletal Health

Musculoskeletal Diseases

The purpose of this study is to create a research repository, composed of data collected in the course of digital care programs for musculoskeletal conditions and musculoskeletal health delivered by SWORD Health to individuals undergoing those programs. This will allow the investigators to observe the acceptance, engagement and outcomes of programs using this approach in the treatment of multiple musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
