Active clinical trials for "Rupture"

This research investigates the impact of a hypnosis-based intervention in alleviating state anxiety in Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM). Our main hypothesis is that a two-session intervention can decrease anxiety for pregnant women with PPROM compared to usual care. This research also studies the impact of the experience of a PPROM during a pregnancy on several variables such as perinatal depression, pregnancy-related anxiety, bonding and childbirth experience, as well as control and pain perceived during chilbirth. Our hypotheses are that the experience of PPROM negatively influences these variables, and that this impact is alleviated by the hypnosis-based intervention for the experimental group.

The goal of this clinical trial is to analyze the effect of the electrical stimulation superimposed onto movement in healthy semi-professional athletes who sustained a type 3a/3b hamstring strain injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is NMES+ useful for the treatment of type 3a/3b hamstring strain injury? Does NMES+ improve the quality of the injured muscle tissue? Participants will follow a 3 week protocol, following the latest evidence available.[describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, treatments they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items]. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare [insert groups] to see if [insert effects].

Determine the effecttiveness of a cross-education strength training protocol in a group of subjects with an anterior cruciate ligament surgery.

The goal of this observational study is to compare the use of a screw made of human bone (Shark-Screw®, Surgebright-GmbH) with the metal/Bio-Tenodesis screw (Arthrex) in the treatment of the symptomatic flatfoot using the medializing calcaneus osteotomy with flexor digitorum longus transfer (FDL) in adult patients. The advantage of the human bone screw is that after surgery no hardware removal is necessary. The screw is transformed from the body to normal bone. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the human bone screw achieve union rates like the metal/Bio-Tenodesis screw? Is the time to union similar between the different screws? Is the complication rate similar between the different screws? Are the activity scores American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) and Foot Function Index (FFI) after surgery similar in the compared patient groups? Participants will have the surgery follow-ups at 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 and 2 years. X-rays are performed at each follow up. CT-scans are performed after 6 months. activity scores are collected at the follow up after 6 months, 1 year and 2 years.

Muscle strength and muscle volume decrease rapidly with the immobilization process after sports-related injury and surgery. Depending on the decrease in muscle strength and muscle volume, functional performance also deteriorates, and this has been demonstrated by studies in the literature. Despite rehabilitation programs after anterior cruciate ligament surgery, muscle weakness persists for a long time and this affects knee functions. As a result, the time to return to sports is delayed or the activity level decreases. In recent studies, cross training is used to gain strength. Cross training is the increase in strength in the untrained leg after unilateral strengthening of the untrained leg. Another popular application for strength gain is exercise training with blood flow restriction. Blood flow restriction exercise training is an exercise protocol based on external pressure restriction of blood flow through the cuff from the proximal of the target muscle. It has been shown that this training prevents reduction of muscle volume in the early postoperative period and increases muscle strength. In the literature, cross-training and blood flow-restricted training are applied separately for muscle strength development after ACL reconstruction. However, no study investigating the effect of the combined application of these two approaches on muscle strength during ACL rehabilitation has been found. It is thought that with the combined application of these approaches, their effects on muscle strength development will increase, and accordingly, the functional results of individuals will be positively affected. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of cross training applied with and without blood flow restriction on muscle strength and function for 8 weeks starting from the 4th week after anterior cruciate ligament surgery. Participants will be included in the training for a total of 16 sessions, 2 days a week for 8 weeks. Pain, muscle strength, muscle thickness, knee functions will be evaluated before and after the training.

The antero-external cruciate ligament (ACL) is the ligament located inside the knee, which allows the rotation of the knee by stabilizing the femur and the tibia. Rupture of the ACL is common during the practice of certain so-called "pivot" sports, whether contact or not. It is manifested by acute pain or instability of the knee, following a crack during a twist and/or a blockage of the joint. The diagnosis will be confirmed by a clinical examination and X-rays to eliminate any fracture or tearing and by MRI to visualize the ligament rupture and the associated lesions, in particular a lesion of the meniscus. Treatment is required because the ruptured ligament does not heal on its own and the rupture of the ligament may eventually promote the appearance of osteoarthritis. Two types of treatment can be considered, rehabilitation or surgery, depending on the patient's age and motivation to resume sports. There are several surgical techniques, the most common is to reconstruct the ruptured ligament by arthroscopy using a graft taken from the tendons of the Internal Rectus and Demi muscles tendinous (DIDT). Rehabilitation by physiotherapy is often started preoperatively and immediately after the operation, as soon as you wake up, to find a functional and painless knee. Functional recovery often depends on patient motivation. The main objective is to show that osteopathic care in addition to physiotherapy rehabilitation improves knee functionality in patients 6 months after reconstruction of the ACL by DIDT.

Validation of the safety and efficacy of absorbable interface screws for clinical use

The purpose of this study is to investigate the association between time spent in moderate to vigorous physical activity and markers of cartilage metabolism in the years following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

The present experimental study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of isoinertial strength training of the hamstrings using machines in patients with ACL-R during the intermediate post-intervention phases.

The purpose with this present study is to investigate the effect og a non-surgical regime in patients with an Anterior Cruciate ligament injury. The effect will be measured by patient reported outcome scores, level of function and how many of the patients are converting to operative treatment.
