Active clinical trials for "Soft Tissue Injuries"

The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether Flector Patch is safe for use in children. The secondary purpose is to assess blood levels of diclofenac, the active ingredient in Flector Patch.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of electret static physiotherapy film developed by Beijing Youshilin science and Technology Development Co., Ltd., to treat acute soft tissue injury by sticking to the affected area

Background: Paracetamol and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen are commonly used oral analgesics in emergency departments (ED) not only in Hong Kong but throughout the world. There are no large-scale (n>100), prospective, randomised studies comparing paracetamol with ibuprofen in the management of acute soft tissue injury. As paracetamol is cheaper than most NSAIDs, may be as effective in the management of acute pain and possibly with fewer adverse effects, a large-scale, randomised, controlled trial is needed to answer questions of relative analgesic efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness. Previous comparative studies on NSAIDS have been done in this unit and have suggested equivalence between two NSAIDs and paracetamol, but numbers were small and drug doses were modest. Objective: To compare the efficacy, safety and cost between oral ibuprofen and paracetamol in pain control for acute soft tissue injuries in an ED setting Design: Prospective, double-blind, randomised controlled trial with three arms: oral paracetamol with placebo; oral ibuprofen with placebo; paracetamol and ibuprofen in combination Participants: 783 subjects having sustained isolated soft tissue limb injury without significant fracture presenting to the ED of Prince of Wales Hospital Main outcome measures: Pain relief profiles of paracetamol, ibuprofen and the combination of both; adverse effect profiles of paracetamol, ibuprofen and the combination of both; overall cost effectiveness of paracetamol, ibuprofen and the combination of both from the perspective of the healthcare provider

This project is designed as a prospective, randomized, comparative study evaluating the use of a negative pressure vacuum device in treating soft tissue injuries and the surgical incision following open reduction and internal fixation of calcaneus, tibial plateau, and pilon fractures.

This clinical trial program was established according to the ethical principles of the Helsinki declaration and the GCP guiding principle, and a randomized grouping method was used to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Compound Methyl Salicylate Liniment in the treatment of acute and chronic soft tissue pain with a positive control drug, named Diclofenac Sodium Liniment.

OrACell has been tested as a barrier in bone regenerative procedures showing promising results in new bone formation after socket preservation, but no data is available on root coverage procedures. Moreover, it has been suggested that keratinized tissue width (KTW) ≥2mm and gingival thickness (GT) ≥1.2 mm at 6 months of the surgical procedures are two important predictors for long term stability of gingival margin Therefore, it was hypothesized that soft tissue thickness and keratinized tissue width may influence the percentage of root coverage. By means of a prospective case series (12 patients in total), the aim is to study the performance of the OrACell dermal matrix in the treatment of multiple and adjacent gingival recessions, determining the amount of complete root coverage obtained at 6 months of follow-up. At the same time, it is intended to evaluate the effect of initial gingival thickness, by means of digital scanning, upon the success of root coverage procedure with OrACell.

Trauma and soft injuries of the wrist, hand and fingers have a high incidence, and large social and healthcare costs are generated, mainly due to productivity loss. Therapeutic exercises must be part of the treatment and in the last 10 years the scientific literature highlights the need for the inclusion of the sensorimotor system in both surgical and rehabilitative approaches. Current methods as leaflets or videos lacks of adherence control, evolution control and knowledge of how the patient do the exercises which compromise the expected results. Touch-screens of Tablet devices have showed a large potential to cover these needs and for the retraining of sensorimotor system. ReHand is a Tablet digital tool (Android and iOS) to prescribe and monitor exercise programs based on sensorimotor approach and developed under the guidelines of various healthcare professionals (hand surgeons, physiotherapists, rehabilitators and occupational therapists) to implement home exercise programs and monitor patients. Subjects are selected by emergency, hand surgery, rehabilitation and physiotherapy services of six hospitals from Andalusian Public Health Service through consecutive sampling. Concretely, patients over 18 years of age with trauma and soft injuries of the wrist, hand and fingers, no more than 10 days after surgery or removal of immobilization. Experimental group will receive access to ReHand app to perform a monitored home exercises program. Control group will receive the conventional method employed: a home exercise program in paper with recommendations. Clinical variables will be assessed at baseline before group allocation, 4 weeks, 3 months and 6 months. At the end of the study, cost-utility variables will be analyzed.

This study will assess the analgesic efficacy of DSG 1% compared to placebo in the reduction of the pain associated with acute blunt trauma injuries.

The purpose of this study is the evaluation of the safety of autologous tissue-engineered dermal substitutes "denovoDerm" (first arm) and dermo-epidermal skin substitutes "denovoSkin" (second arm) transplanted onto the wound bed in children and adults.

Multiple finger defects are common in hand trauma and result in functional disability. These injuries are often complex and severe, and thus reconstructive alternatives are limited. In this study, we use the dorsal homodigital island flaps, based on the dorsal branch of the digital artery, for reconstruction of multiple finger defects. At the final follow-up, we would evaluate the efficacy of this technique.
