The aim of this study is to compare the early post-operative migration as measured by Roentgen Stereophotogrammetric Analysis (RSA) of the uncemented tibial component with plasma spray coating with the uncemented porous coated tibia component.
The goal of this clinical investigation is to assess the early migration and bone remodeling of the Symax hip stem and the Trident HA coated or Trident Tritanium acetabulum component with RSA and 18-F PET CT Also the sensitivity of the RSA…
The main objective is to compare the coronal Cobb angle correction of proximal hook claw fixation versus proximal pedicle screw fixation after two years of follow-up. The secondary objectives of the study are: comparison of coronal Cobb angle…
The objective of this study is to determine the optimal myo-electric prosthesis training for obtaining the largest transfer effect. Here fore we plan to execute three experiments. At first it needs to be revealed which trainingtasks leads to the…
The objective of this study is to determine the surplus value of mental imagery on myo-electric prosthesis training Here fore we plan to execute two experiments. The goal of the first experiment is to test if intermanual transfer effects of able-…
The main objective of this study is to compare the femur tunnel positioning after AMP, TLS and TT reconstruction techniques. We will also look at the relation between tunnel positioning and tunnel widening.
Which technique, cementing or press-fit implanting, of the tibial and femoral stem of the Legion revision total knee prosthesis provides the most primary stability?
Primary goal: mean linear wear of the cross-linked polyethylene F.A.L. cup compared to the mean linear wear of the standard polyethylene F.A.L. cup at 5 years postoperatively. Secondary goals:1. mean linear wear (millimeters/year) at 1 year, 3 years…
The effects of cross-education on loss of muscle strength and knee function after ACL reconstruction
Primary Objective:The aim is to compare the effects of rehab with standard care vs. standard care plus XED on loss of muscle strength and function in the operated limb at the end of phase I rehab after ACL reconstruction surgery.
To assess non inferiority of a Multi Radius design (ACS® unicondylar) compared to a Single Radius design Unicondylar knee implant (Oxford) on clinical outcome using the Oxford Knee Score.
The aim is to study the long-term functional and radiological results (i.e. cuff integrity) of arcromioplasty in patients with SIS after a 8-13 year follow-up period.
The current study evaluates the OrthoSensor and investigates whether the combination of the Vanguard® Knee System with the OrthoSensor results in a faster recovery and better clinical outcomes during short follow up compared to conventional TKA (…
Primary ObjectiveThe primary objective is to show that fusion with the Valeo OL spacer produces similar improvement in MRDQ at all follow-up time points as compared to the same procedure with PEEK cages.Secondary ObjectivesTo show that the fusion…
The aim of this study is to compare the early post-operative migration as measured by Roentgen Stereophotogrammetric Analysis (RSA) of the cemented tibial component with the uncemented porous coated tibia component.
2.1 Primary objectiveTo compare the wear rate 24 months after THA of HXLPE stabilized with vitamin E versus conventional UHMWPE for total joint arthroplasty.2.2 Secondary objectives1. To compare the wear rate at 3,12 and 24 months after THA between…
Primary outcomeThe primary objective of the study is to evaluate if patients undergoing resurfacing of the patella during TKA show at least 10 % improvement in the Baldini score (after 24 months) compared to patients undergoing TKA without…
The objective of this research is to investigate in vivo by means of RSA the amount of wear of the insert very secure.Through frequently taken RSA measurements over a 3 year period, we might be able to predict the longevity of the XLPE insert.
Objective: The main objectives of this study are technical and functional outcome of the hemiarthroplasty
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the modified chevron is equally effective in correcting the IMA as a Scarf osteotomy. The secondary objective is whether a better function and a lower complication rate can be obtained with a modified…
The effect of local anesthetic volume on the duration of single shot axillary brachial plexus block.
The purpose of the present study is to compare the duration of sensory and motor block with 15 and 40 millilitres mepivacaine 1.5% for axillary brachial plexus block using ultrasound guidance. Our hypothesis (H0) is that there is no difference (less…
