Non-invasive Evaluation of Upper and Lower Body Function With Showmotion
OsteoarthritisHip4 moreIt is very important to understand joint and body kinematics and muscles activity in clinical settings, which is relevant to identify issues related to the spine, the upper and lower limbs due to injury. In this study, the investigators will use an innovative platform, Showmotion to establish baseline of shoulder, hip, knee and spine kinematics and muscles activity from 60 healthy volunteers.
The Distraction of Knee Joint to Alleviate osteoArthritic Pain (DiKAP) Trial
Knee OsteoarthritisThis is a randomized controlled trial examining the short- and long-term effects of mechanical nonsurgical knee joint traction on knee pain, function, and quality of life.
The ATtune Knee Outcome Study
OsteoarthritisKnee3 moreTo accomodate dissatisfied patients with a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and improve outcomes, several knee systems have been developed. The cemented ATTUNE TKA shows superiority over other established knee systems at short-term, abating with longer follow-up. There have been no studies reporting on the results of the uncemented version of the ATTUNE. Therefore, the main objective of the current study was to report patient reported outcome measures (PROMs), survivorship and complications associated with the uncemented ATTUNE TKA.
NUsurface Implant Registry
Meniscus; DegenerationKnee Osteoarthritis1 moreThe purpose of this active post-market surveillance clinical registry study is to further characterize the therapeutic effect, the long-term safety and effectiveness of the NUsurface® meniscus implant in the real-world post-marketing setting
Simultaneous Physiotherapy and Orthopedic Surgeon Interdisciplinary Care (SPOSIC)
OsteoarthritisKnee1 moreThis study will test a protocol to implement simultaneous physiotherapy and orthopedic surgeon interdisciplinary care for patients undergoing knee replacement surgery. These interdisciplinary sessions will help tailor personalized goals, involving the patient as a key member of the team.
Study of StimRouter for Chronic Knee OA Pain
OsteoarthritisKneeThe goal of this study is to evaluate the use of StimRouter Neuromodulation System (StimRouter) in adult subjects with an established diagnosis of primary femorotibial osteoarthritis in the target knee (Kellgren-Lawrence ≥1) who have surgical contraindications to undergo a knee joint arthroplasty procedure. The main questions it aims to answer are: To assess the effect of the StimRouter Neuromodulation System to manage joint pain in patients with symptomatic OA of the knee who are surgically contraindicated to undergo a knee joint arthroplasty To assess the effect of StimRouter on joint stiffness, function and patient quality of life Participants will have StimRouter leads implanted then clinic visits will be scheduled for follow-up at Week 2, Month 3 and Month 6 (End of Study (EOS) or Early Termination (ET)).
Monopolar Versus Biopolar Radiofrequency in OA Knee Pain
OsteoarthritisKneeThis is a prospective randomized controlled trial study will aim to evaluate the the efficacy and procedural pain of BRFA and to compare it with conventional technique (MRFA). And to compare the complications and time taken to complete the procedures.
Observational Clinical Investigation of Arthrosamid in Knee Osteoarthritis
Knee OsteoarthritisThis is a prospective, long-term, observational, all-comers, open-label, multi-centre clinical investigation enrolling subjects with knee osteoarthritis who is eligible for treatment with Arthrosamid® according to the Instruction for Use.
Cell-free Stem Cell-derived Extract Formulation for Knee Osteoarthritis
OsteoarthritisKneeThe purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of intraarticular injection of Cell-free Stem Cell-derived Extract Formulation for treatment of knee osteoarthritis symptoms.
Management of Knee Pain by Cooled Radiofrequency in Classical Anatomical Targets and Revised Targets...
OsteoarthritisKnee3 moreOsteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic and progressive disease that results from characteristic pathological changes in the tissues of the entire joint, resulting in failure in the component parts. OA is one of the most common causes of disability in adults due to pain and altered joint function, impacting patients' quality of life. Treatment is based on decreasing pain and improving function, involving non-pharmacological, pharmacological, and surgical management. First-line treatment involves non-pharmacological and pharmacological measures. When OA is very advanced, total joint replacement surgery is recommended. However, for patients refractory to conservative treatment and unwilling or unable to undergo arthroplasty, few options remain. Recently, several studies involving minimally invasive procedures are being recommended. Among them is the cooled radiofrequency technique, causing neurotomy by thermal activity, thus reducing the patient's perception of pain. The classical therapeutic target for this technique are the genicular nerves of the knee. However, more recent studies have shown that these classical targets do not provide complete pain relief and have suggested new therapeutic targets, comprising besides the genicular nerves, the recurrent peroneal nerve and the infra-patellar branch of the saphenous nerve. In order to validate these revised targets, new studies need to be done. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of the cooled radiofrequency procedure using classical and revised targets, and to compare pain intensity, knee function, quality of life, analgesic consumption and adverse effects of both techniques. Key words: Osteoarthritis of the knee. Sensory nerve denervation. Classical targets. Revised targets.
