The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and performance of the BioMatrix CRD for the repair of focal articular cartilage lesions or osteochondral defects in the knee.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of the cartilage of repaired defects 20-25 years after perichondrium transplantation (PT) or autologous chondrocyte translantation (ACT). Secondary objectives are to review the functionality and pain…
Study of functional outcome after arthroscopic tenotomy of long head biceps tendon vs. arthroscopic debridement vs. conservative treatment as treatment for degenerative rotator cuff ruptures in patients 65 years or older.
This exploratorive study is performed to improve our understanding of possible etiologic factors and the relationships between foot mobility, intrinsic foot muscles and foot segment kinematics during gait for patients with sub-acute and chronic…
1) To compare (long-term) results of patients treated for Calcific Tendonitis with barbotage, versus patients treated for Calcific Tendonitis with other conservative standard-treatments2) An analysis of group characteristics and risk factors for CaT…
Primary Objective: The primary goal of this research project is to evaluate the effect of a rockered shoe on walking and running biomechanics in healthy athletes and athletes with Achilles tendinopathy. The reason for using a patient group is that…
The first aim is to determine see if knee proprioception is related to patellar tendinopathy. The second aim is to study whether application of a patellar strap influences proprioception.
To clarify the aetiology of CTS and prognostic factors for the development of CTS.
The goal of the study is to investigate whether and to what extend conscious control of the movements of the knee joint is present. Evidence is emerging that patients use an attentional focus that is directed to conscious control of the movements (…
Theoretically the anatomical reconstruction technique should give better results in rotational stability due to a more anatomical placement of the ACL-graft. Though it is difficult to test this correlating to functional outcome, because in current…
Substudy A• Validating the supramaximal SteepRamp exercise test to determine physical fitness in type 2 diabetes patients by correlating the result with a conventional VO2max exercise test and determining the test-retest reliability.Substudy B•…
By introducing a novel method for studying dynamic wrist motions we expect to set up a new non-invasive method which is expected to result in early diagnosis of abnormal carpal movements after ligament disruption. By comparing healthy individuals…
Goal of this study is to determine if high-field sodium-MRI can be used as:1) a sensitive, in vivo, and non-invasive biomarker to diagnose OA in an early stage and 2) as a method to follow the progression of OA and to monitor the effect of new…
This project focuses on injury prevention-related cost-effectiveness of the "F-MARC Bricks".We hypothesize that the exercises of the *F-MARC Bricks*, integrated in the warm up, reduce injury incidence and/or injury severity and…
The purpose of the current study is to compare MRI findings between affected and unaffected elbows in patients with clinically diagnosed unilateral lateral elbow painGiven the considerable number of degenerative changes in asymptomatic elbows…
The goal of this study is to analyse differences in monocyt activity, by analysis of cytokine levels in serum of healthy and OA patients.
To clearify the etiology of CTS and prognostic factors for the development of CTS.
The aim is to gain basic dynamic information for an upcoming accuracy studies whereby the diagnostic value of 4D-RX will be determined. By comparing healthy individuals with those with scapholunate ligament dissociation we expect to detect abnormal…
The goal of the study is to gain insight in the changes in motor control programming after injury to the ACL and subsequent reconstruction of the ACL. The following hypotheses: will be tested:1. Reflex latencies on the involved side are increased…
The aim is to gain basic dynamic information for an upcoming accuracy studies whereby the diagnostic value of one of the both will be determined. understanding motion patterns will enable us to set up new definitions for diagnosing ligamentous wrist…
