NCT04149977
The primary objective of the study is to determine the efficacy of blood flow restriction therapy on patients with lower limb extensor injuries by measuring pre and post blood flow restriction therapy strength and muscle mass.
NCT06923293
The purpose of this research study is to assess the ease, convenience, and efficacy of walking when using a motor powered ankle foot orthosis (AFO) brace, in adults who have had a lower limb injury.
NCT06162962
Retrospective analysis of specific characteristics of complications and long-term oncological and function outcomes in lower-limb osteosarcoma pediatric patients.
NCT04535635
This is a feasibility study to determine if the investigators can conduct a clinical trial with a sham and control soft tissue treatment. The primary research questions are can the investigators provide the treatments as specified, can they recruit a sufficient number of participants, and does ART® decrease pain and improve function in 20-50 year-old adults with subacute or chronic lower limb soft-tissue injuries compared to a sham treatment? This is a pre-post ART® pilot study with a control group that would receive a sham ART® treatment. The study group is 20-50 year-old adults with subacute or chronic lower limb soft tissue injuries.
NCT03924765
The increased metabolic and biomechanical demands of ambulation limit community mobility in persons with lower limb disability due to neurological damage. There is a critical need for improving the locomotion capabilities of individuals with stroke to increase their community mobility, independence, and health. Robotic exoskeletons have the potential to assist these individuals by increasing community mobility to improve quality of life. While these devices have incredible potential, current technology does not support dynamic movements common with locomotion such as transitioning between different gaits and supporting a wide variety of walking speeds. One significant challenge in achieving community ambulation with exoskeletons is providing an adaptive control system to accomplish a wide variety of locomotor tasks. Many exoskeletons today are developed without a detailed understanding of the effect of the device on the human musculoskeletal system. This research is interested in studying the question of how the control system affects stroke biomechanics including kinematic, kinetics and muscle activation patterns. By optimizing exoskeleton controllers based on human biomechanics and adapting control based on task, the biggest benefit to patient populations will be achieved to help advance the state-of-the-art with assistive hip exoskeletons.
NCT03855059
IV and included steroids have produced the same length of block prolongation in adults as if the steroid was given with the nerve block. Clinically, this has not be noticed in children. The objective of this study is to examine this in young patients. The investigator will blindly give the steroid either in the IV or in the block solution (perineural). This is a prospective double blind study.
