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…
Research proposalTo find out what is the best surgical procedure for patients with conservative therapy resistent calcifying tendinitis of the shoulder. Objectives Our main objective is to compare the three different surgical procedures for the…
This is a post-marketing study to further assess the safety and efficacy of the InSpace* device implantation in comparison to surgical repair of full thickness MRCT . The efficacy will be assessed by comparing the pre- and post- operative shoulder…
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.
Establishment whether usage of high viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs leads to a reduction in leakage incidence compared to usage of conventional (low-medium) viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs.Since evidence is scarce or…
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…
The objectives of this study are:* To determine the percentage of patients with recent-onset RA and UA who achieve and maintain clinical remission on treatment with a combination of methotrexate 25 mg/week and extended prednisone pulse (tapered high…
This new developed knee prosthesis will be compared to the standard scorpio PS knee prosthesis. In this comparison it will be examined if the changes in design really do improve function and deminish pain. Allso patella tracking and patella tilting…
Comparison of the accuracy of achieved correction of the mechanical axis in the frontal plane relative to preoperative planning, endeavouring to achieve an overcorrection of a varus malalignment to 3-4° of valgus, comparing open and closed HTO*s.
1 Confirm comparable results in reduction and consolidation of the fracture fragments using the LFN vs the UFN2 Identifying a significant difference in the soft tissue damage between the LFN and the UFN
The objective of this study is to compare short- and long-term surgical and clinical outcomes of patients with chronic neck pain and neck disability due to a single-level spinal disorder that undergo Anterior Cervical Discectomy followed by…
To assess whether there is (cost) effectiveness over a period of 1 year of additive intra-articular injections with a high molecular HA derivate in patients with OA of the knee.
Prove by means of RSA, that HA coating has an advangtage in stability of the uncemented SL-PLUS femoral component in primary total hip arthroplasty.
Objective is to compare the two groups whether the pain scores are at least the same. Also will be noticed if the incidence of side effects of morphine intrathecal are less (e.g. itching, nausea and/ or vomiting and urine retention, although this is…
To compare functional recovery of the patient and the fusion status of ceramic cages versus PEEK cages on the short and long term.
The objective of this study is to accurately assess and compare migration, clinical and radiological outcome and patient reported outcomes of two TKR prostheses: the Cementless ATTUNE Rotating Platform Cruciate Sacrificing Knee System and the LCS…
The objective of this study is to accurately assess and compare migration, clinical and radiological outcome and patient reported outcomes of two TKR prostheses: the Cemented ATTUNE (S+Tibia component) Fixed Bearing Cruciate Retaining Knee System…
The objective of this study is to accurately assess and compare migration, kinematics, gait analysis, prosthesis placement and patient reported outcomes of two TKR prostheses: the fixed bearing, cemented NexGen LPS, a proven design with an excellent…
The primary objective is to investigate whether there is a difference in the number of hip dislocations and revisions following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), using the posterolateral approach, with a DM cup compared to a unipolar cup in…
The objective of this study is to accurately assess and compare migration, clinical and radiological outcome and patient reported outcomes of two TKR prostheses: the Cemented ATTUNE Fixed Bearing Cruciate Retaining Knee System and the Cemented PFC…
