Promoting Sleep to Alleviate Pain - Arthroplasty
PROSAP-A is a perioperative randomized, controlled trial with a 12-month follow-up period after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or total hip arthroplasty (THA), aiming to investigate both acute and long-term postoperative effects of preoperative sleep-promotion. Participants with clinically significant insomnia symptoms will be randomized to a brief, hybrid version of cognitive …
Upper and Lower Extremity Exercise and Exercise-Induced Hypoalgesia in Knee Osteoarthritis
The objective of the study is to explore the effects of arm exercise (UE, arm ergometer) vs. leg exercise (LE, cycling ergometer) on exercise-induced hypoalgesia (EIH), central pain mechanisms and knee pain in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Furthermore, we will explore relations of socioeconomic status, racial discrimination, acculturative stress, …
MRgFUS and RFA for Treatment of Facet-joint Osteoarthritis Low Back Pain
This is a prospective, randomized, two-arm, phase II study. The purpose of this study is: To evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for treatment of facet-joint osteoarthritis low back pain. Determining the effect of the MRgFUS System and RFA …
Genicular Artery Embolization for Reducing Pain in Medically Refractory Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis
Genicular Artery Embolization for Reducing Pain in Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis: A Pilot Randomized Sham-Controlled Study (SHAM-PAIN) is a NIH-NIAMS funded project designed to assess enrollment feasibility and detect any differences between GAE and a similar sham intervention in reducing KOA-related pain at 3 months as measured by the Knee injury …
Somatosensory Amplification and Psychological and Functional Status In Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis
As modern society enters the age of an aging population, the prevalence of knee OA continues to increase, which necessitates multi-faceted research. Although there are studies on exaggeration of bodily sensations, depression, kinesiophobia and functional status in patients with knee OA, there are deficiencies in correlating these factors with each …
Neurolysis for the Treatment of Medial Chronic Knee Pain Due to Osteoarthritis
This study involves the use of sound waves to block pain signals caused by osteoarthritis of the knee. The sound waves are tightly focused on a specific area of the nerve. The sound waves cause a break in the nerve which carries pain signals. Sound waves transmit through the skin …
The Efficacy and Safety of Intramuscular Methylprednisolone in Patients With Hand OsteoArthritis
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of intramuscular methylprednisolone in patients with hand osteoarthritis. The main question it aims to answer is what the difference is in hand pain 4 weeks after the first injection with methylplrednisolone. This main goal will be assessed …
Sustained Acoustic Medicine for Symptomatic Treatment of Knee Pain Related to Osteoarthritis
The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of long-duration low intensity therapeutic ultrasound (LITUS) to alleviate knee Osteoarthritis pain over a 24-week period. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic effect of LITUS in subjects suffering from knee Osteoarthritis pain. Secondary objectives are …
Feasibility of Resting Intervals During Exercise Programs for Individuals With Knee Osteoarthritis
This pilot randomize trial tests the feasibility of administering two different exercise programs in people with knee osteoarthritis. One group receives the exercise program administered as usual, and the other group received the exercise program with resting intervals.
Effects of Movement Retraining on Knee Loading in Individuals With Knee Osteoarthritis
This study investigates how well individuals with knee osteoarthritis can learn to alter their calf muscle activation using haptic biofeedback while walking and evaluates how these changes affect knee loading. Prior research has utilized musculoskeletal simulations to determine that reducing the activation of one of the calf muscles, the gastrocnemius, …
