To investigate the (cost) effectiveness of early ACL reconstruction (<6 weeks after injury), compared to the usual timing of ACL reconstruction (> 3 months after injury). Hypotheis is that early ACL reconstruction results in less loss…
The effectiveness of PRP treatment in patients suffering from chronic lateral epicondylitis is still ambiguous. Therefore we study PRP treatment in a double blind randomized controlled trial in a homogeny patient population with respect to duration…
Primary ObjectiveTo demonstrate that the effectiveness of the NOVOCART® 3D plus autologouschondrocyte transplantation system is superior to microfracture for the treatment ofarticular cartilage defects of the knee by demonstrating superiority of the…
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…
The primairy goal of this study is to evaluate the long term follow up of the operative treatment of ulnar collateral ligament injuries regarding function(-al restriction), in which the treated extremity will be compared to the contralateral…
The primary objective is to get a first insight what the effect of FSWT and RSWT is on the tendon structure in treating patellar tendinopathy patients and on healthy tendons determined by UTC.The secondary objective is to compare the effect of FSWT…
Primary Objective: to determine the status of screw degradation, osseous replacement and host response of a biodegradable self-reinforcedTM poly 96L/4D lactide copolymer and βTCP biocomposite interference screw at five years after an ACL…
Primary Objective: Determining the effect of a patellar strap and sports tape on pain and sport participation in subjects with patellar tendinopathy. Secondary Objective(s): Determining the relationship between injury specific, sports related and…
There is no high-level clinical evidence, with regard to clinical outcome, for the superiority of ESWT versus treatment with needling. The objective of this trial is to compare high-energy ESWT and ultrasound guided double percutaneous needling in…
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…
Objective of the ANKLE TRIAL is to differentiate between results of three types of functional treatment in a profound methodological way, with primary research question: what will be the optimal functional treatment for acute lateral ankle ligament…
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of virtual reality on gait and stair descending in patients with an Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction.
To examine the effectiveness of taping shoulders with a subacromial impingement syndrome using a rondomized controlled trial.
Aim of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility and to gain a first insight into the effects of the PRP treatment protocol on pain, symptoms and function, in athletes with chronic patellar tendinopathy.
The objective is to evaluate and compare the outcome of conventional open or arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery, by means of clinical scores and biomechanical studies (range of motion, scapulohumeral rhythm, muscle activation patterns).
The primary objective is to determine the effectiveness of RSWT versus FSWT in treating patellar tendinopathy.
To test if dry needling and aspiration treatment is more effective than arthroscopic shoulder decompression in patients with calcification of the supraspinatus tendon.
What is the most adequate treatment for people with partial meniscectomy?
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…
To compare long term outcome of patients with calcifying tendinitis of the rotator cuff treated with us guided needling with us guided cortocosteroids injection versus us guided cortocosteroids injection only. .
