Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis, Hip"

This is a single center, prospective, randomized controlled study. The primary objective of this study is to measure migration over two years with RSA. Patients will be randomized in two arms, receiving a Taperloc Complete Reduced Distal or a Taperloc Complete Microplasty hip stem.

This is an open-label study to compare systemic exposure to triamcinolone acetonide following a dose of extended-release FX006 or immediate-release TAcs (triamcinolone acetonide suspension) in patients with osteoarthritis of the shoulder (glenohumeral joint) or hip

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of fasinumab compared to placebo on peripheral nerves in participants with pain due to Osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip or knee. The secondary objectives of the study are to: Evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to placebo in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee Evaluate the safety and tolerability of fasinumab compared to placebo in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee Characterize the concentrations of fasinumab in serum in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee Evaluate the immunogenicity of fasinumab in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared with placebo, when administered for up to 16 weeks in patients with pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee or hip.

Spinal anesthesia is commonly utilized for hip replacement surgery. Different medications used for spinal anesthesia work for different lengths of time. This study will compare three different spinal anesthesia medications in patients having hip replacement surgery to see if patients are able to get out of bed and walk earlier after surgery with one medication versus the others.

The primary objective is to demonstrate that the auto-injector(AI) is suitable to be used to administer fasinumab at home by patients or their caregivers, as measured by collecting 12 weeks of actual-use data on the technical performance of the device. The secondary objectives of the study are: To evaluate the successful injection of fasinumab by patients or their caregivers using the AI in an unsupervised setting To evaluate patient/caregiver satisfaction with the AI for fasinumab injection in an unsupervised setting To evaluate exposure in serum for fasinumab administered by patients or their caregivers using an AI in an unsupervised setting, or fasinumab administered by study staff using a PFS that has been used in the phase 3 program To characterize the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of fasinumab administered by patients or their caregivers using an AI in an unsupervised setting, or fasinumab administered by study staff using a PFS that has been used in the phase 3 program

The nerves from lumbar plexus (LP) are the current target to achieve analgesia after a total hip arthroplasty (THA). Lumbar plexus block (LPB) is an alternative that provides optimal postoperative analgesia. However, many adverse effects and complications have been reported due to its proximity to vital structures. Because of these shortcomings, an alternative to block the LP nerves is required. In a recent trial suprainguinal Fascia Iliaca Block (SFIB) was reported to provide reliable analgesia in THA. SFIB may carry a lower risk profile, however, no study has compared the efficacy of LPB and SFIB in this setting. Thus, this randomized trial is set out to compare US guided LPB and SFIB for analgesia after THA. The hypothesis is that both blocks would result in similar postoperative opioid (morphine) consumption at 24 hours and, therefore, designed the study as an equivalence trial.

The incidence of hip osteoarthritis (OA) is rising in western countries due to an ageing population and the epidemic of obesity. Patients with hip OA tend to complain of hip pain and stiffness which affect alignment and mobility of the whole body and typically result in general musculoskeletal pain and disability. Clinical guidelines recommend a combination of exercise therapy, weight loss and education, adjusted to the individuals needs, to be tried out before arthroplasty eventually is offered. However, to obtain a satisfactory long-term outcome is a challenge as patients may not be motivated to comply with a training program including functional strength and mobility training, if not guided by a therapist. Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) may be an alternative training modality with a better potential for lasting effects. It is a low-impact movement therapy focusing on alignment of the body and quality of movements, implemented in daily life activities. In the BBAT learning process by doing, reflecting on and transferring body awareness into daily life movements, the investigators hypothesize that the patients will obtain self-efficacy and mastering, of importance for continued training on their own. This hypothesis will be examined in the present randomized controlled trial, comparing Patient Education combined with BBAT and Patient Education alone. The investigators will, accordingly, examine the supplementary effects of BBAT for patients with hip OA. They will also explore the importance of movement quality as observed by physiotherapist using Body Awareness Rating Scale, and how it relates to how patients perceive their movement performance. In the study the investigators will particularly address long-term effects of the intervention by comparing survival of the native hip in the two groups included in the study. Data from the study will be included in a national database of patients with non-surgical treatment of hip and knee OA (NOAR), giving rise to comparison of different movement therapies.

Total hip replacement (THR) is being considered as one of the most effective medical procedures. Since its introduction, there was a worldwide debate over proper implant selection in terms of size, bearing type and shape. The diameter of used femoral heads components grew throughout the years - from 22 mm in the 1960s to 32 mm in the 2000s, which is the most commonly used size nowadays. In recent years there was a visible use of large femoral heads (>=36mm) in several registers. In the USA there was a significant grow in use of this heads rising from 1% in early 200s to even 58% in 2009. There is a strong evidence data and many researchers concerning range of movement, risk of dislocation, functional results, pain and prosthesis wear depending of femoral head size. In terms of gait characteristics there are several deviations reported concerning both patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA) and following THR. There is a lack of literature concerning influence of used implants on gait parameters and whether this goal of the surgery can be achieved. The aim of this study was to assess potential differences of lower limb biomechanics during gait in patients following total hip replacement surgery depending on femoral head diameter and compare them to the normal gait of healthy volunteers. As a secondary outcome authors wanted to inspect correlation between gait parameters and patient-reported outcome.

Backwards walking has been shown to improve balance and walking in patients who have knee Osteoarthritis. It is not known if these benefits may also be seen after surgery in patients who have had a hip or knee replacement because of Osteoarthritis. This study will look to see if it is possible to conduct a bigger study into how effective backwards walking may be after joint replacement. Patients who come to the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Oxford for a hip or knee replacement will be invited. They will be placed into one of two groups at random: a group where they have a course of physiotherapy plus a backwards walking programme or a group where they have a course of physiotherapy. The physiotherapy will last for 12 weeks and those who take part will have two study assessments. The first will be before any treatment and patients will complete five measures and also be issued with a simple tick box diary to complete over the 12 weeks. The second assessment will be after the treatment and will involve the same five measures and the diaries will be collected in. Participants at this assessment will also be asked if they would like to take part in an interview for the study. This is to see what the patients thought of the study. During the study the researcher will record things such as how many patients say 'yes' to the study and how many participants drop out of the treatment, to understand if a bigger study could take place.
