Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis"

A post market, prospective, non-randomized, multi-center, open-label,clinical study using survivorship as the reference performance goal to study the safety and efficacy of the Cadence Total Ankle System (TAS) when used for primary ankle arthroplasty.

This will be an open-label trial to describe the effects of cryoneurolysis with iovera° on symptom relief in patients with painful Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade 2-4 ankle osteoarthritis (OA). The Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) subscales will be used to assess outcomes at 6, 12 and 24 weeks after treatment.

A clinical study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Calypso Knee System when used in subjects with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the medial compartment of the knee.

Stemless shoulder arthroplasty systems with uncemented metaphyseal fixation have been used in Europe for glenohumeral osteoarthritis since 2004. The stemless design has several theoretical advantages compared with the stemmed shoulder arthroplasty systems: restoring patients' anatomy, preserving humeral bone stock, and few complications in component removal if the need for a revision arthroplasty arises. The purpose of the study is to compare the short-term, patient-reported outcome of stemless and stemmed total shoulder arthroplasty.

This study will evaluate whether Cartiva is an effective treatment for individuals with osteoarthritis of the first CMC joint in the hand compared to LRTI.

The objectives of this study are to obtain clinical performance (outcomes) data and survivorship for commercially available Vivacit-E (HXPE) liners. This will be done by analysis of polyethylene wear, validated outcome measurement tools, radiographs, and reported adverse events data.

The primary objective of this study is to obtain implant survivorship and clinical outcomes data for the commercially available Persona Partial Knee System.

Chronic conditions such as knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart failure (HF), coronary heart disease (CHD), hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and depression are among the leading causes of global disability and affect hundreds of millions of people around the world. In recent years, multimorbidity, commonly defined as the co-occurrence of at least two chronic conditions, has also gained interest due to its substantial impact on the person and society. Despite the significant burden of multimorbidity, little is known about how to treat this effectively. A 2016 Cochrane systematic review found that interventions targeting populations with specific combinations of conditions and addressing specific problems such as functional difficulties may be more effective. Exercise therapy is a treatment addressing functional limitations that is a safe and effective treatment of at least 26 chronic conditions, including OA, HF, CHD, hypertension, T2DM, COPD and depression. Furthermore, self-management support is increasingly recognized as an essential component of interventions to improve outcomes in patients living with multimorbidity and to support the long-term adherence to exercise. A new systematic review found that exercise seems effective in people with multimorbidity (the conditions included in the current study), however highlighting the need for further high-quality RCTs. The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate the effects of a personalized exercise therapy and self-management support program in addition to usual care on self-reported, objectively measured and physiological outcomes in people with multimorbidity (i.e. at least two of the following conditions: OA (knee or hip), heart condition (HF or CHD), hypertension, T2DM, COPD and depression). The primary endpoint is 12 months, but 4- and 6-month follow-ups are included as well and a 12-month health economic evaluation of the program will be conducted. Prior to the RCT, a feasibility trial of 20 people with multimorbidity, all undergoing the personalized exercise therapy and self-management support program, will be conducted using the same methods as in the RCT, but primarily focusing on feasibility outcomes (recruitment, retention, adherence to treatment, burden of outcomes, improvements in outcomes, adverse events). This will start recruitment in Feb 2021 and end August 2021. The MOBILIZE project has received funding from several foundations, including the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (grant agreement No 801790).

The purpose of this post-market research study is to gather clinical and radiographic (X-ray) information about total knee replacement surgeries completed with the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution and with standard manual instrumentation. The VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution helps the surgeon to plan bone cuts and then accurately achieve the planned cuts during the total knee replacement surgery. The study aims to compare how well the VELYS Robotic-Assisted system enables the surgeon to position the implants exactly as planned compared to manual instrumentation.

This study is a multicenter non-randomized single-blind controlled trial, aimed at investigating the feasibility and efficacy of hydrotherapy based on IVR, for the patients with TKR(Total Knee Replacement), on the function, gait performance, postural balance control, and knee edema reduction. The protocol was draft according to the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT ) checklists. A total of 96patients with total knee prosthesis will be recruited and divided into three groups, to receive a traditional rehabilitation (TR) program, traditional hydrotherapy (TH)or hydrotherapy through immersive virtual reality (HIVR) using Bts-Nirvana. Assessments will be performed at baseline and at the end of treatment.
