Active clinical trials for "Rupture"

A prospective cohort study that will be conducted at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital. It aims to determine the outcomes, in terms of, activity level, functional level, subjective knee function, range of motion, stability, and failure, among patients with acute ACL injuries, who undergo arthroscopic primary ACL repair; and to compare these results with patients who undergo arthroscopic ACL reconstruction. To the investigators' knowledge, there is a dearth of studies looking into the outcomes of arthroscopic primary ACL repair and this going to be the first study in the Middle East. The investigators believe that arthroscopic primary ACL repair is superior to arthroscopic ACL reconstruction; and conducting this research project will elucidate the previously abandoned facts about acute ACL repair; and will eventually have a huge impact in the field of orthopedic surgery.

Despite the apparent multifaceted benefit in differentiating blockade sites and duration of nerve blockade, the efficacy of continuous adductor canal blockade utilized specifically in ACL reconstruction has not been extensively studied. This study will test the hypothesis that the use of the adductor canal continuous nerve catheter will result in lower subjective pain scores on postoperative day 2 and improved quadriceps strength on postoperative day 1.

The purpose is to see if Autologous Conditioned Plasma (ACP) promote and accelerating tendon tissue healing in Conservative treated total Achilles Tendon Tears. 40 healthy males were randomized to either receive ACP or Placebo (saline) around the ruptured achilles tendon at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and again after 6 weeks during the 8 weeks immobilization period with an orthosis. Ultrasound and symptoms scores (ATLS) was performed at baseline, after 8 weeks immobilization and again after 3 month, 6 month and 12 month. Scoring and functional tests was performed after the 8 weeks immobilization and again after 12 weeks, 24 weeks and 52 weeks from injury date.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy on maternal infection, chorioamnionitis and neonatal morbidity and mortality, and to review the evidence and provide recommendations on the use of antibiotics in PPROM.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of anteroposterior talus mobilization on range of motion, pain, and functional capacity in participants with sub-acute and chronic ankle injuries.

This study objectives are to compare the efficacy and safety between surgical excision and manual rupture for dorsal carpal ganglion.The participants with dorsal carpal ganglion will be randomized into 2 groups:surgical excision or manual rupture.The patients will be follow-up for at least 1 yr.Telephone interview will be used for outcome assessment.

The incidence of caesarean section has reached 15-20% in most developed countries. Encouraging vaginal birth after caesareans section (VBAC) has been considered a key component of a strategy to reduce the caesarean section rate. Most medical literature has focused on the efficacy of VBAC in reducing the caesarean section rate and the physical safety of successful VBAC. However, 30%-40% of these women fail to achieve a vaginal delivery. Little is known about how the uncertainty of labour outcome and a failed VBAC impact on the psychosocial function of these women. We propose to study a cohort of women with a prior caesarean section and presenting with a subsequent pregnancy for care. After consent and recruitment, these subjects will be randomly assigned to have a repeat caesarean section or VBAC. The medical outcomes, overall satisfaction of the subjects with the care they received, and the short-term psychosocial function of these subjects will be studied. The result of this study will provide important information that would be useful in assisting women to decide the mode of delivery after a prior caesarean section.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of protected early weightbearing (PEWB) compared to non-weightbearing (NWB) after surgery for an Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) on health related quality of life (HRQL) in the initial six week period after surgery, functional recovery over time, return to work and activity and complications. We hypothesized that PEWB following ATR repair would result in: i) improved HRQL in the initial postoperative period, ii), a quicker recovery of HRQL, strength and endurance, iii) earlier return to work and sport, and iv) no increase in complications, such as re-rupture compared to NWB.

The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility of an early progressive exercise program for patients with Achilles tendon rupture treated non-surgically. The outcomes will concern the patient's acceptability of the intervention, adherence to the intervention and safety of the healing tendon.

As the public health sector continues to confront the opioid epidemic, orthopaedic surgeons must revisit pain management protocols to reduce unnecessary opioid prescriptions. The long-term goal is to reduce opioid use and residual opioids in circulation.
