Effects of Different Relaxation Therapies on Pain and Sleep in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty Patients
Hip and knee replacement surgery is commonly performed in older adults. After surgery, many patients experience pain, limited movement, and sleep problems. These difficulties can make daily activities such as walking or climbing stairs more challenging and may reduce quality of life during recovery. Relaxation exercises are often used to …
Platelet Rich Plasma Injections In Young And Old Human Subjects
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 study with a secondary crossover phase at the end of the initial trial to ensure all subjects receive one PRP injection. The goal is to identify what proteins change in the blood following repeated intraarticular knee PRP injections in patients with knee …
The Effectiveness of Heat Treatment on Knee Pain in Patients With Osteoarthritis - an International, Multicenter Clinical Investigation
This post-market clinical follow-up, open-label, multicenter clinical investigation is designed to investigate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of ThermaCare® Knee Heatwraps in the painful knee joint due to osteoarthritis. Approximately 80 patients, 19-69 years old inclusive, with moderate knee osteoarthritis (without acute flares or inflammation) will be enrolled. The overall …
Dexamethasone vs. Dexmedetomidine for ESPB in Pain Management After Hip Arthroplasty
Effect of perineurial dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine on erector spinal plane block duration for hip arthroplasty
Positioning for Hip Arthroscopic Surgery to Reduce Postoperative Numbness
Compared to the knee and shoulder, the hip joint leaves relatively little space to maneuver arthroscopic instruments and camera. To expand the potential space in the hip joint, traction is commonly applied to the operative leg through a perineal post. This is an effective technique to improve the working space …
Comparison of INIT and Dry Needling on Trigger Points in Knee OA
The purpose of the study is to compare the effects of Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition Technique and Dry Needling on Functional Disability, Pain and Range of Motion. A randomized control trial will be conducted at Wah General Hospital Taxila. The sample size is 36 calculated through G-Power but I recruited 50. …
An Imaging Framework for Clinically Testing New Treatments to Prevent Post-traumatic OA
The immediate goal of the proposed research is to test the value of a new low-cost, low-dose standing CT system for efficient early detection of both joint degeneration and elevated contact stress. The standing CT scanner holds promise for detecting arthritic changes earlier than other imaging modalities because of the …
EMPHASYS Cup Positioning in THA With Non-Invasive Navigation (Velys Hip Navigation (VHN))
The purpose of this research is to gather clinical and radiographic (X-ray) information about EMPHASYS™ acetabular shell (also called a hip 'cup') placement in total hip replacement surgery using a non-invasive surgical navigation system called VELYS™ hip navigation system with CUPTIMIZE™ Advanced Hip-Spine Analysis software. Data collected in this study …
Steps Towards Osteoarthritis Prevention
Optimal knee joint loading, which refers to the forces acting on the knee caused by daily activities such as daily steps, plays an essential role in maintaining knee articular cartilage health and reducing the risk of osteoarthritis (OA). After anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), individuals take fewer daily steps as …
CBD for Knee Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a disease that affects millions of Americans and is the leading cause of persistent pain and physical disability in the older adult population. Many physically active Americans have reported pain-relieving effects of cannabidiol (CBD) that can reduce or eliminate use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for activity-related pain …
