The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the main stabilizers of the knee joint, and its injury is among the most common soft tissue injuries of the knee. Several surgical reconstruction techniques are available, utilizing various tissues as a graft for the neo-ligament, including both autografts and allografts. The …
The goal of this observationnal study is to supplement the data collected in the pre-market study and confirm the rate of capsular ruptures due to Rx (reducing its related confidence interval). During cataract surgery, an artificial lens is placed into the capsular bag. The main question this study aims to …
The primary aim of this study is to compare two postoperative analgesia techniques used in patients undergoing inguinal hernia surgery-(1) the anterior iliac block and (2) the ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric block-in terms of postoperative analgesia duration and patient satisfaction. Effective postoperative analgesia in inguinal hernia surgery is crucial for improving patient comfort …
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are associated with concomitant lesions of the anterolateral ligament (ALL), which increase rotatory instability of the knee. If untreated, ALL insufficiency can compromise the results of ACL reconstruction, with higher risk of iterative ACL tear or additional meniscal lesion. Several surgical techniques have been described …
The aim is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of a screening tool to identify patients who undergo ACL reconstruction (non-copers) after 3 months of standard rehabilitation following an anterior Cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are extremely common. On average, 50% of individuals suffering an ACL injury will develop radiographic osteoarthritis (OA) 10 to 20 years after injury. Unfortunately, ACL reconstruction does not prevent risk of future OA. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) levels in the human knee joint increase transiently after an …
This is a prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial. Sixty patients (≥18 years) with an isolated ACL injury will be randomly assigned to receive an ACL reconstruction using either a Peroneus Longus Tendon (PLT) autograft or a Hamstring Tendon (HST) autograft. The primary objective is to compare early functional outcomes between …
To evaluate the effect of graded exposure and mindfulness meditation after ACLR, the investigators will determine the effect of graded exposure and mindfulness meditation to 1) decrease self-reported injury-related fear and reinjury anxiety, and 2) improve lower extremity reaction time when compared to a waitlist control group.
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 …
This study aims to investigate the improvement effect of visual-guided balance training on the knee joint function and gait performance of patients after ACLR, and to clarify the advantages of this training program compared to conventional rehabilitation training; at the same time, by including healthy individuals as the control group, …
