Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis, Knee"

The Aim Is To Study The Anatomic Relationship Of The Popliteal Vesseles In Two Types Of (OWHTO) Techniques (Monoplanar VS Biplanar) Which Provide More Safe Technique To The PV

Hip arthroplasty surgery is frequently performed on elderly patients in the community and it is associated with long-term postoperative hospital stays and high mortality. Postoperative pain management is a multimodal process that includes intravenous and regional anesthesia methods. The ultrasound(US) guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is injected with a local anesthetic into the deep fascia of the erector spinae. In the literature, it has been reported that ESPB provides effective analgesia after a hip surgery. The fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) is a safe method used for postoperative analgesia following hip, femoral, and knee surgeries. The aim of this study is to compare US-guided FICB and ESPB for postoperative analgesia management after total hip prosthesis surgery.

The study aimed to investigate the impact of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols on the clinical effect of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) via the midvastus approach

Objective. In this study, the investigators aimed to investigate the efficacy of combined a single platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and physical exercise (leg swing and quadriceps strengthening exercise) versus PRP and hyaluronic acid (HA) combination therapy. Methods. One hundred and six patients with grade Ⅱ-Ⅲ Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) according to the Kellgren-Lawrence classification were randomly divided into intra-articular injection of PRP combined with leg swing and quadriceps strengthening exercise (group A) and intra-articular combination injections of PRP and HA (group B). Patients in group A received twice intra-articular injection of PRP (2 ml, 2 weeks apart) and regular leg swing and quadriceps strengthening exercise for 3 months. Patients in group B received twice intra-articular combination injections of PRP (2 ml) and HA (2 ml) every 2 weeks. The primary outcome measures were Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) score. The second outcomes included single leg stance test (SLS) and functional activity by 2 minutes walking test (2MWT) and time up and go test (TUGT). All outcomes were evaluated at baseline and after 1,3,6, and 12 months.

Knee osteoarthritis is a major public health issue because it causes chronic pain, reduces physical function and diminishes quality of life. Aging of the population and increased global prevalence of obesity are anticipated to dramatically increase the prevalence of knee osteoarthritis. Knee osteoarthritis is characterized by complex multifactorial joint pathology and is the most common form of joint disorder in the world. Chronic knee osteoarthritis leads to marked weakening of the quadriceps femoris muscle, which is the extensor and stabilizer of the knee and atrophy of this muscle result knee pain and functional impairment. Quadriceps muscle weakness and atrophy have been reported to contribute to functional impairment and pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis and quadriceps strengthening can be achieved through open kinetic chain exercises and close kinetic chain exercises. Close kinetic chain exercises are modeled as, in which a movement in a joint simultaneously produces movements in other joints of the extremity. Open kinetic chain exercises and close kinetic chain exercises form the combined chain exercises. Kinesiotaping with these exercises to improve the patients suffering with knee osteoarthritis. The aim of this study will be to compare the effects of kinesiotaping as an adjunct to combined chain exercises compared with only kinesiotaping on pain, range of motion and quality of life in the management of individuals with knee osteoarthritis. This study will be randomized control trial. Patients will be recruited into two groups by simple random assignment. Non probability consecutive sampling technique will be used. Data will be collected from patients of grade 2 knee osteoarthritis patients by using NPRS for pain, Goniometer for ROM and SF-36 for quality of life will be used before and immediate after the treatment. Those who will meet the inclusion criteria will be recruited. Group 1 will be treated with kinesiotaping and combined chain exercises and the Group 2 will be treated with only kinesiotaping on knee OA patients. Total intervention will be given for four weeks for three sessions per week.The subject attended physical therapy and kinesiotaping will assess for pain, range of motion and quality of life at baseline and after 4 week of intervention. After collecting data from defined study setting, data will be entered and analyzed by using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) for Windows software, version 25.

Single arm clinical investigation, post-market confirmatory interventional to assess performance, safety and tolerability of "CR500 SINGLE-DOSE GEL" medical device in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).

The goal of this clinical trial is to test low-intensity continuous ultrasound stimulator(LICUS) for patients suffering from knee arthritis. it aims to evaluate the pain relief effect of LICUS. 35 participants were recruited, treated by LICUS on the knee joint for 5 minutes, 3 times a day for 4 weeks. This study has single group and is for a before and after comparison of clinical treatment.

To assess minimal clinically important change, cut-offs for treatment failure and patient acceptable symptom state for pain and patient-reported function and quality of life in persons with hip or knee osteoarthritis, participating in digitally delivered first-line education and exercise treatment.

The prevalence of knee osteoarthritis has been increasing in recent decades as the number of obese people has increased. Various interventions are used to improve the functional condition of patients, but it is still not clear which one is most effective. The primary aim of this study was to determine and compare the effects of kinesio taping and sham taping on the knee functional mobility.

The purpose of this study is to determine the intra-articular and serum levels of vancomycin over the first 24 hours postoperatively after intra-articular administration of a standard dose of vancomycin in primary total knee arthroplasty.
