Active clinical trials for "Rupture"

To assess the outcome of using magnesium sulphate on fetus and women with preterm premature rupture of membranes

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of utilizing blood flow restriction (BFR) therapy after distal biceps tendon repair or medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFLR) following a tear.

Aim 1: The primary aim of this study is to test the feasibility of Mechanical Diagnosis and Treatment (MDT) +/- transforaminal epidural steroid injections (TESI) on pain and disability in patients awaiting physiatry consult for lumbar radiculopathy secondary to lumbar disc herniation, compared to usual care within the current healthcare system in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Hypothesis: the investigators hypothesise that centralisers treated with MDT and non-centralisers receiving TESIs + MDT will have demonstrate reductions in self-reported pain and disability, compared to usual care controls. Aim 2: the investigators will also describe the potential impact on healthcare resources by tracking surgical rates and self-reported healthcare utilisation during the study period. Hypothesis: based on predicted reductions in pain and disability, the investigators hypothesise that there will be a trend toward overall less healthcare utilisation (including surgery) in the MDT guided group compared to the surgical wait list group.

This is a global, prospective non-interventional, multi-centre, post-market study of the Vascutek Thoraflex™ Hybrid system in patients with acute thoracic aortic syndrome, subacute/chronic dissection of the aorta and aortic aneurysm.

This cohort study compares to groups of patients with reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Patients in group 1 had ACL-reconstruction in the years 2001-2010 with a transphyseal drilling technique. Patient in group 2 had ACL-reconstruction in the years 2013-2018 with a physeal sparing technique. Data including: x-ray exam, patient reported questionnaires and clinical evaluation will be compared between the 2 groups.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of modifiable risk factors on patient-reported quality of life, physical activity levels, and risk of early osteoarthritis following revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The investigators hypothesize that modifiable variables exist at the time of revision ACL reconstruction (e.g., cause of failure, current graft source and type, surgical exposure, and femoral and tibial tunnel position) which will be predictors of patient-reported outcomes.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of doripenem compared with meropenem in children hospitalized with complicated intra-abdominal infections.

The purpose of this study is to compare safety and efficacy outcomes of the L-C Ligament versus Hamstring Autograft for treatment of acute rupture of the ACL.

In women undergoing labor induction for membrane rupture at or near term, we are investigating the addition of a foley catheter placed in the cervix to standard therapy (oxytocin administration) to decrease the time from the start of the induction to delivery.

Stent treatment of thoracic aortic pathologies, including aneurysms, pseudo-aneurysms, dissections, intramural hematomas, penetrating ulcers and ruptures of the isthmus, seems to provide a likely benefit compared to surgery in terms of surgical mortality and severe morbidity. However, the data concerning the long-term fate of these stents are insufficient. For this reason, the French National Health Authority (HAS) requests a 5-year follow-up in relation to the renewal of insurance reimbursement for these stent-grafts. Therefore, this long-term observational study has been set up.
