Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis"

This study evaluates the preliminary efficacy of an 8-week exercise and education intervention on musculoskeletal health of young adults with a previous sport-related knee injury that are at high risk of post-traumatic osteoarthritis. In addition, the purpose of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to determine the feasibility of the study methods and procedures to inform the design of a future randomized controlled trial.

This post-marketing investigation will evaluate the functional knee performance of Subjects who have undergone primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Data from Subjects who receive one of four contemporary knee configurations from different manufacturers will be pooled to establish a contemporary dataset. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the functional performance as measured by the activities of daily living (ADL) sub-score of the Knee Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score (KOOS) patient-reported outcome (PRO) questionnaire of primary TKA at minimum one year post-operation. This will be carried out for all four implant configurations. The final endpoint is a 2-year evaluation.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the benefits of daily consumption of a high rosmarinic acid spearmint tea, developed by the University of Guelph, on measures of pain, physical function and disease activity in osteoarthritis of the knee. The investigators hypothesize that a spearmint tea high in rosmarinic acid is efficacious in mitigating the symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee through its actions in reducing cartilage degradation, oxidative stress and inflammation.
