Active clinical trials for "Rupture"

The objective of this work is to evaluate perineal elasticity and deformation and the perineal stresses induced by the fetus during delivery.

The aim of this study is to collect a sum of different characteristics that have been mentioned previously in people presenting with RCRSP and by clustering them to create a phenotype system which may assist the individualisation of their management

Randomized controlled trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of the use of a local anesthetic spray, commonly used in clinical practice as off-label, during the suturing of perineal lacerations in post-partum, comparing it with the standard technique that involves the infiltration of lacerated tissues, by administering a NRS card at the end of the procedure.

The investigators will compare the results of sono-guided femoral nerve block in arthroscopic surgery for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction under spinal anesthesia.

The aim of this study is validate the use of biopolymer from sugar cane molasses film (POLYSHAFT®) a product developed in Experimental Station research laboratories (UFRPE) comparing to polyurethane film, or similar, used as a bandage after surgical correction of hypospadias, as well as other procedures. The main objective of the study is to prove the hypothesis the POLYSHAFT® presents similar or better outcomes in terms of biocompatibility, when compared to the polyurethane film when used as a bandage.

The CRB study is designed to study the safety and effectiveness of the Cook Cervical Ripening Balloon (CRB) for the induction of labor in term and near-term patients with premature rupture of membranes (PROM).

The overall objective of this study is to conduct a two-group randomized trial to examine the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral based physical therapy (CBPT) for improving knee function, return to sport, and quality of life outcomes in patients following ACL reconstruction (ACLR). The study consists of two treatment groups: telephone-based cognitive-behavioral based physical therapy for ACLR (CBPT-ACLR) and telephone-based Education. The central hypothesis is that the CBPT-ACLR participants relative to the Education group will demonstrate significantly greater improvement in postoperative outcomes at 12 months following surgery.

Childbirth is a major risk factor for pelvic floor muscle (PFM) trauma. In one third of women, stretching of the PFM will result in an avulsion injury (i.e. disconnection of the muscle from its insertion points on the pubic symphysis). Recent advances in imaging have led to the discovery of this previously unknown major injury and further research now enables its diagnosis with readily available techniques. Avulsion injury has alarming consequences because it has been associated with a higher rate of urinary incontinence in the postpartum period as well as the long-term development of other major urogynecological conditions such as pelvic organ prolapse and anal incontinence. Women with avulsion not only suffer from severe symptoms with significant related impacts on physical activities, overall well-being and quality of life, but they also present a higher rate of surgical failures. Moreover, it is still unknown whether the most recommended first-line treatment for urinary incontinence -PFM physiotherapy- is effective in women with this major trauma. Until now, only a pilot study conducted by our team supports the rationale and the efficacy of physiotherapy for improving PFM function in women with avulsion, despite their major muscle injury. Primary objective: To evaluate the efficacy of physiotherapy for urinary incontinence in women with avulsion at 9-months after randomization compared to a waiting-list control group. Secondary objectives: To compare physiotherapy to the control group after treatment and at 9-months after randomization in terms of: a) incontinence and prolapse (objective quantification, symptoms and related impact); b) PFM morphology and function; c) sexual function; d) self-efficacy; e) cost analysis; f) treatment satisfaction and impression of change. To investigate the impact of the severity of the avulsion (i.e. unilateral or bilateral) on the response to physiotherapy treatment on the aforementioned outcomes.

The purpose of this study is to examine the short term effect of functional electrical stimulation treatment versus neuro-muscular electrical stimulation on gait quality for patient after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the surgically repaired tendon of a ruptured achilles tendon. We will investigate fixation slippage and tendon creep and correlate how these post-repair findings can contribute to outcomes of tendon repairs.
