Individual Differences in Gait and Osteoarthritis Pain
The goal of this observational study is to look at inter-individual differences in knee osteoarthritis (OA) walking pain and performance. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Why do some people with knee osteoarthritis have more severe disabling pain than others, even though the degenerative changes in their …
Perineural Prolotherapy in Chronic Knee Osteoarthritis Pain.
The aim of this study is to test whether the addition of dextrose to perineural injections is superior to local anesthetic alone, as some initial data have indicated. To enhance the potential therapeutic effect, we will proceed to a 4-point injection technique, targeting 4 genicular nerves (superomedial, superolateral, inferomedial, recurrent …
RFA or Chemical Neurolysis of the Genicular Nerves Compared to Conservative Treatment for Knee Pain Caused by OA
A randomised controlled triall (RCT) with three parallel arms comparing the functional outcome of chemical ablation with phenol and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of the genicular nerves with conservative treatment in patients with chronic knee pain caused by osteoarthritis (OA).
Perfusion MRI-targeted Joint Embolization for Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain of the Shoulder, Hip and Knee
In this work the investigators will study the relationship between chronic musculoskeletal pain and abnormal blood flow (neovascularity) around the shoulder, hip and knee. Veterans with as history of chronic shoulder, hip or knee pain and mild/moderate joint degenerative changes will be potential study subjects. Blood flow around joints will …
Zimmer Biomet Shoulder Arthroplasty PMCF Study
This is a multicenter, prospective, non-controlled post market surveillance study. The objectives of this study are to confirm the safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Zimmer Biomet Shoulder Arthroplasty systems in primary anatomic shoulder arthroplasty and its instrumentation. Safety of the systems will be assessed by monitoring the frequency …
Metabolic Profiling of Hematopoietic Stem Cells in Clonal Hematopoiesis (CHIP)
Bone marrow samples will be collected from patients undergoing hip arthroplasty surgery. Blood and bone marrow samples will be used for metabolic profiling and analysis of relevant CHIP mutations. Combined single-cell transcriptomics and mutation-specific single-cell genotyping (biotin-PCR using mutation-targeted primers followed by sequencing) will subsequently be performed. The gene expression …
Z1 Hip System: Post-Market Clinical Follow Up Study
The objectives of this study are to confirm the early to mid-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Z1 Femoral Hip System in hemi-hip arthroplasty and primary total hip arthroplasty. The primary objective of this post market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study is the assessment of safety by recording and …
Mobile Technology to Measure Knee Health in Osteoarthritis
Veterans face a high prevalence of knee osteoarthritis (OA), but current diagnostic methods often miss early stages when interventions are more effective. This project will evaluate smartphone-based motion capture via OpenCap to measure joint mechanics in knee OA patients during functional activities, comparing its performance to a conventional motion capture …
Optimal Anesthetic for Corticosteroid Injections for Knee Osteoarthritis
To evaluate pain relief from corticosteroid injection with and without anesthetic as well as with variable volume of anesthetic. Pain relief will be measured using the VAS pain score at the time of the injection as well as several time points following the injection to capture pain relief longevity. The …
Hydrolyzed Collagen Formulation vs Placebo in Knee Osteoarthritis
The aim of the study is to compare the 6 months clinical outcome of the treatment with a single intra-articular collagen injection versus a single placebo (saline solution) infiltration in the infiltrative treatment of knee osteoarthritis. The evaluation will be performed through clinical, subjective and objective assessments.
