Our primary objective is to compare the short term (3 months follow-up) clinical and radiographic results of the Bledsoe Thruster Brace with the SofTec OA Brace in the management of patients with medial knee OA and a varus leg alignment.
Primary objectiveTo compare the wear rate 60 months after THA of HXLPE stabilized with vitamin E versus conventional UHMWPE for total joint arthroplasty. Secondary objectives- To compare the wear rate at 3,12, 24 and 60 months after THA between…
Primary: Longterm safety and tolerability.Secondary: Time to 1st flare, number and severity of flares, efficiacy in treating flares, effect on inflammatory markers, immunogenicity, PK.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of Hydros and Hydros with triamcinolone acetonide, (Hydros TA) for treatment of pain from osteoarthritis of the knee, in patients who have failed to respond adequately to…
To evaluate the early and late postoperative results measured by the KSS and ROM of the Scorpio knee prosthesis following the Lazirush concept and compare this with a matched group of patients undergoing a Scorpio knee prosthesis following the Joint…
1. To compare cartilage repair between KJD and HTO, evaluated 2 years post treatment. The hypothesis is that KJD results in (more) cartilage repair compared to HTO. 2. To compare cartilage tissue repair over 2 year follow-up compared to baseline and…
The primary objective in this study is to detect the presence of supra-spinal central sensitization in patients with chronic neck pain secondary to cervical facetal arthropathy. We aim to show this by comparing the pressure-pain thresholds (PPT; the…
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…
1. Is KJD clinically non-inferior to current surgical techniques (HTO and TKP)?2. Is KJD superior to HTO in actual structural repair of cartilage?3. Is KJD cost-effective in the long-term compared to HTO and TKP?
This new developed knee prosthesis will be compared to the standard scorpio PS knee prosthesis. In this comparison it will be examined ifthe changes in design really do improve function and deminish pain. Allso patella tracking and patella tilting…
Our primary objective is to compare the short-term (one-year follow-up) clinical results of the DePuy Delta Xtend reversed shoulder prosthesis with conservative treatment, in the management of displaced four-part fractures of the proximal humerus of…
The primary objective in this study is to compare the effectiveness of lateral C1-2 pulsed radiofrequency application (LPRF) in comparison with conventional C3-5 facet denervation (MBRF) in patients with clinically defined cervicogenic headache.
Primary: To confirm that canakinumab 150 mg s.c. is superior to triamcinolone acetonide 40 mg i.m. with respect to patient*s assessment of gout pain intensity in the target joint at 72 hours post-dose (on a 0-100mm VAS). To confirm that canakinumab…
Our primary objective is to compare the midterm clinical and radiographic results (6 to 8 years) of CWO versus OWO with a locked plate fixation in the management of patients with medial knee OA and a varus leg alignment with a prospective follow-up…
The primary goal of the study is to investigate whether additional intensive strength training can lead to increases in strength and voluntary activation and pysical functioning before surgery. Further, it is a goal to study if there are indications…
The identification of axial SpA in the primary-care setting and the introduction of questionnaires that could optimize the pattern of referral to secondary care is one of the most important objectives of the CAFASPA-II study.
Primary objective:Demonstrating that direct anterior approach results in higher patient satisfaction than posterolateral approach in total hip arthroplasty.Secundary objective:- Demonstrating a difference in secundary clinical and functional…
The present study will evaluate the logistics and especially the effectiveness of the proposed multi-component intervention. The results will be an important factor for decisions on the further exploitation of the RRR foundation.
Primary Objective: To investigate which underlying muscle properties can explain (expected) differences in strength between subjects with and without OA, and how muscle strength, voluntary activation and fatigability are related to function.…
To assess the efficacy and safety of treatment with tocilizumab versus adalimumab, both in combination with methotrexate, in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate efficacy response to treatment with…
