The main objective of this study is to test if resection of Hoffa*s fat pad in total knee arthroplasty leads to a greater range of motion and if resection leads to a faster recovery of normal walking gait and preferred walking speed post operatively…
Primary Objective: To compare the function and strength of the hip of patients with a trochanteric fracture with and without a fracture of the lesser trochanter.Secondary Objective(s):The following parameters will be assessed and compared for…
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…
Objective: To evaluate the adherence of patient*s use of OS.
To investigate the relation between quadriceps strength, range of motion, parameters of gait and functional outcome (measured with the WOMAC) in patients with severe osteoarthritis of the knee 3 months and 1 year after TKA.
In this study we want to monitor the neurological complications occurring during hip operations, consisting of hip arthroplasty ('head-neck' prothesis) for traumatic hip fractures. We want to establish that there is more understanding of…
Objective: The main objective is to compare staples versus sutures for wound closure after Total Hip Arthroplasty.
The primary goal of this study is to determine if there are any benefits in addition of pregabalin and s-ketamine to local knee infiltration with ropivacaine/adrenaline/kenacort®, regarding the analgesia and the early mobilization in the study group…
The goal of the study is whether to establish if application of combined cyrocompression therapy directly postoperative after hip fracture surgery results in a significant reduction in painperception en whether this reduces the morfine consumption.…
The purpose of this study is to determine whether it is useful to decolonize patients undergoing primary hip or knee replacement surgery from the S. aureus skin bacteria.
Primary objective is to assess the early stability of the Delta-TT cup and H-MAX femoral stem. Additionally, the stability of the Delta-TT cup with Polyethylene insert is compared to the Delta-TT cup with Ceramic insert by means of RSA. Secondary…
- To determine the long-term results of Salter pelvic osteotomies.- To determine the differences in outcome between an open reduction at a relatively young age and an open reduction at the time of the pelvic osteotomy.
Research will focus on improving and optimizing the cell culture process in a dedicated bioreactor system. The aim of the development is a closed system that can replace current cell culture practice to better guarantee the quality of the cultured…
In this study we would like to investigate the effect of CP (Peptan®) on pain, synovial inflammation and functional and clinical outcome parameters in patients undergoing total knee replacement therapy.
To assess the incidence and severity of embolic events during spinal instrumentation surgery with intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography monitoring.
Do pre-processed bone chips have lower contamination rates compared to femoral heads, morselised at the operating theatre measured at different moments during hip revision arthroplasty?
Obtain transient temperature data of the skin, core and wound surface during orthopedic back surgery in order to validate the numerical model developed at the Technical University of Eindhoven for this type of surgery.
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 (…
This study investigate the problems which patients experience after hospital discharge after TKA surgery during the first six weeks post-operative. We will use the outcome of this study to optimize the first six weeks after hospital discharge.The…
