The objective of this study is to find the median local anesthetic dose (MLAD/ED50) of bupivacaine that allow direct post-operative mobilization and will accommodate sufficient anesthesia during surgery.Results from this study might lead to the…
In light of the above, our objective is to study the (cost-) effectiveness of a single intravenous gift of antibiotic prophylaxis with a firstgeneration cephalosporin prior to implant removal following surgical fixation of foot, ankle and/or lower…
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…
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…
Assessing the effectiveness and safety of parecoxib compared to placebo in pain relief children undergoing scoliosis surgery
To identify the patient profile for Actifuse and for other grafting products used to achieve bone fusion.
Primary objectives* To evaluate the initial and long-term clinical results in terms of function, quality of life and pain/satisfaction of the Signature* procedure compared to the standard operation instruments (Vanguard CR cemented fixation).* To…
Primary Objective:Is there a difference in patient satisfaction of the treatment in patients with a edentulous mandibular atrophic ridge comparing treatment with 2 dental implants and one of the three attachment types: ball-attachments, bar-…
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.
Primary Objective:Is there a difference in patient satisfaction of the treatment in patients with a edentulous mandibular atrophic ridge comparing treatment with 3 dental implants and a multiple bar or treatment with 4 dental implants and a…
The main objective of this study is to compare the efficacy, in skin antisepsis in forefoot surgery. Therefore we will compare povidine-jodine with chloride-hexidine both soluted in 70% alcohol.
To compare surgeon assessments of the elbow COR with the digitally measured COR, and to determine the accessory inter- and intraobserver variability.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the Anchor Peg Glenoid provides adequate stability in the first en second year after surgery. Therefore, the migration pattern is determined after 3, 6. 12 and 24 months. The correlation with…
1: Comparing the initial and long term clinical results and survival of the Vanguard Deep Dish prosthesis with the traditional Vanguard Fixed bearing prosthesis.2: Does Joint Care improves the recovery process?
The Sciatica-Gill trial is a randomised cost-effective study about nerve root decompression according to Gill versus instrumented fusion in the treatment of patients with radicular legpain or neurogenic claudication due to spondylolytic…
The aim of this project is to assess objective and subjective functional long-term outcome of patients with intra-articulair distal radius fractures treated with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). This will be done by standardized…
The objective of this study is to assess the difference in micromotion of the Stanmore hip prosthesis (form enclosed), using two different bone cements. We hypothesise that the newly marketed bone cement Refobacin- gentamycine has the same in vivo…
To assess the performance of the ConforMIS for the repair of the osteoarthritic knee with damage in either the lateral or medial compartiment of the knee.
The objective of this study is to assess the difference in micromotion of the Exeter hip prosthesis, using two different bone cements. We hypothesise that the newly marketed bone cement Refobacin- gentamycine has the same in vivo properties as the…
To asses the comparability of the estimated dabigatran concentration in plasma via calibrated Hemoclot and the measured dabigatran concentrations assessed in a central lab in patients with moderate renal impairment undergoing primary unilateral…
