Rehabilitation Following Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) has been successful in patients with rotator cuff arthropathy, proximal humerus fractures, failed primary total shoulder arthroplasty or failed hemiarthroplasty, and massive irreparable rotator cuff tear. Patients who undergo an RTSA report pain relief and functional range of motion. It has been more than 20 …
Comparison of Customized and Standard Total Ankle Prostheses
The objective of this study is to compare primary total ankle replacement (TAR) performed with a customized procedure (prostheses customized for each patient based on his or her ankle morphology reconstructed from tomographic scans, and implanted via cutting guides customized for the patient) with standard primary TARs, considering: objective radiological …
Variable Immobilization Protocol for Arthroplasty of the Carpometacarpal Joint of the Thumb
Thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) osteoarthritis (OA) is common, seen frequently in middle-aged and elderly women. While a variety of surgical treatments have been described with none superior to any other, there is no consensus on the optimal duration of postoperative immobilization. Immobilization following surgery is critical for wound healing, pain control, …
NSAID Injection Versus Corticosteroid Injection for Basilar Thumb Arthritis
The Researchers are trying to compare two different types of intraarticular injections (injection in the joint) for treating the symptoms of moderate to advanced basilar thumb arthritis. One injection is ketorolac (an NSAID) and the other is triamcinolone (a corticosteroid).
Prospective Study of Arthrodesis of Finger Distal Interphalangeal Joints Using the Kerifuse Device
Arthrodesis of a distal interphalangeal joint of the finger (DIP) is mainly performed for a degenerated and painful joint. Various stabilization methods have been used to provide compression at the arthrodesis site such as pins, steel wires, compression screws, headless compression screws, bioresorbable implants and intramedullary staples. Although with complications …
Scapular Positioning in Standing Position Using Sonography
The objective of this study is to analyse the positioning of the scapula in standing position and compared to the supine position (CT scan) in 3 dimensions (3 rotations of the scapula) using a non-radiant, portable system, combining an ultrasound probe with marker and a camera integrated into a Tablet …
Evaluation of the Patellar LIFT System for Subjects with Patellofemoral Cartilage Degeneration
The PELICAN study is a prospective, non randomized, dual arm, multi-center clinical study comparing clinical outcomes of subjects treated with the LIFT Implant System to subjects treated with Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy (TTO).
Evaluation of Structural and Functional Integrity of the Rotator Cuff After Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
The purpose of this study is to examine the rotator cuff muscles in your shoulder at one and two year post total shoulder replacement surgery.
Clinical Results and RSA Migration Analysis of the GLOBAL ICON - Stemless Anatomic Shoulder
The primary goal of the clinical trial is to determine that the GLOBAL ICON implant system from DePuy does not exhibit worse shoulder function after 2 years than the SIMPLICITY from Wright Medical. The primary endpoint is the Constant-Murley Shoulder Score (CMSS) of the implant after 2 years, the non-inferiority …
Assessment of Recovery After Adductor Canal Block Analgesia in Unilateral Prosthetic Knee Surgery
The purpose of the study is post-operative recovery from prosthetic knee surgery will be assessed by the proportion of patients entering the Accelerated Rehabilitation After Surgery program eligible for discharge from hospital at 2 days according to the following definition: Chung score ≥ 9 with no intravenous (IV) infusion, solid …
