NCT07353190
In this study, the effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (TENS + NMES) applied in addition to TENS on pain, shoulder joint range of motion and upper extremity functions will be comparatively evaluated in stroke patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain. In this direction, in the study; The effectiveness of both treatment approaches on the severity of hemiplegic shoulder pain, their contribution to shoulder functionality and daily living activities will be examined; It will be investigated whether NMES application added to TENS provides an additional clinical benefit compared to TENS.
NCT06818708
Postoperative pain remains undertreated with inadequate analgesic options. Opioids have well-known limitations for both individuals and society; single-injection and continuous peripheral nerve blocks provide intense analgesia but are limited in duration to 24-72 hours; and current neuromodulation options-with a duration measured in weeks and not hours-are prohibitively expensive and require an additional procedure. One possible solution is a device currently under investigation to treat postoperative pain. The RELAY system (Gate Science, Moultonborough, New Hampshire) is comprised of a basic catheter-over-needle device to allow administration of a single-injection of local anesthetic via the needle (or catheter) followed by a perineural local anesthetic infusion via the remaining catheter (when desired). Subsequent to the local anesthetic administration, instead of removing the catheter as with all previous continuous peripheral nerve block equipment, electric current may be delivered via the same catheter and an integrated pulse generator for up to 28 days. This is potentially revolutionary because it would allow an anesthesiologist to deliver (1) a single-injection peripheral nerve block; (2) a continuous peripheral nerve block; and (3) neuromodulation using a single device that can theoretically be placed in the same amount of time required for a single-injection peripheral nerve block. Instead of providing fewer than 24 hours of postoperative analgesia, up to 28 days of pain control could be delivered without disruption of existing practice patterns. The ultimate objective of the proposed investigation is to prepare for a randomized clinical trial investigating the use of the RELAY device to provide postoperative analgesia. This feasibility study will be a series of participants all receiving both local anesthetic and electric current via a single device (RELAY, Gate Science, Moultonborough, New Hampshire). The purpose will be to optimize the insertion approach and stimulation administration during the first 7 days following foot and shoulder surgery as well as training the clinical investigators.
NCT04003311
The objective of this retrospective/prospective enrollment and prospective follow-up consecutive series PMCF study is to collect data confirming safety, performance and clinical benefits of the Comprehensive Primary Micro Stem and Comprehensive Anatomic Versa-Dial Titanium Humeral Heads when used for primary and revision total shoulder arthroplasty (implants and instrumentation) at 1,3,5,7 and 10 years\*. Comprehensive Primary Micro Stem and Comprehensive Anatomic Versa-Dial Titanium Humeral Heads have been on the market since 2007, but have insufficient data to support 10 years of clinical history. Therefore, a prospective aspect to the study will be utilized in order to collect long-term data.
NCT05780229
The purpose of this study is: 1) to identify relevant treatment outcomes for people with massive rotator cuff tears of the shoulder joint, according to the experience of the affected people, to facilitate treatment shared decision-making during the specialist consultation in Spain; 2) to compare the effectiveness of conservative treatment, arthroscopic decompressive surgery and reverse prosthesis, in terms of patient's relevant outcomes and health-related quality of life.
NCT06435494
This research project aims to test if systematic (extensive) use of patient-reported outcomes across treatment boundaries can 1. improve patients' and health professionals' understanding of individual patients' conditions and health changes, 2. improve indications for treatment, 3. strengthen patient empowerment, and 4. reduce patients' utilization of health services. The study will be performed in the particular context of patients with chronic degenerative conditions of the shoulder. These patients are characterized by contact with numerous health professionals from different health sectors, such as general practitioner, physiotherapists and surgical referral centres, which challenges coherence and communication for the individual treatment decisions. The research project will be performed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a 1-year inclusion period and two years of follow-up.
NCT05960799
This is a randomized clinical trial with the objective of comparing the time of insertion of two types of perineural catheters in shoulder surgery. These devices are thin lines that have to be inserted over a needle or throw a needle, depending of the type of catheter that is used. The hypothesis is: the installation of Contiplex C or catheter over needle (CON) is faster than a normal contiplex catheter or Catheter throw needle (CTN) at same rate of effectivity.
NCT03877835
The combination of a modified lateral sagittal infraclavicular block and a suprascapular nerve block has not been studied in a cohort of total arthroplasty patients. Such diaphragm-sparing nerve blocks for shoulder arthroplasty may provide a very good anesthetic alternative in lung diseased patients who are in need for total arthroplasty of the shoulder.
