The bridge-enhanced ACL repair (BEAR) implant is a collagen-based scaffold loaded with whole blood. It is designed to promote healing in the setting of intraarticular knee pathology. This study would compare clinical outcomes and synovial fluid cytokine profiles in patients who undergo isolated meniscal repair with or without the BEAR implant.
A novel bioactive sleeve will be compared to a placebo sleeve with a similar look and feel to assess pain outcomes, patient reported outcome measures, and effectiveness of healing based on range of motion.
The purpose of this study is to determine differences in pain, functional patient reported outcomes, and objective imaging parameters following non-operative and meniscus root repair treatment. Furthermore, the long-term goal of this research proposal is to understand the natural history of meniscal root tears and their subsequent repair, in order to better determine risk factors for inferior outcomes and progression to osteoarthritis (OA).
Standard arthroscopy has been the gold standard for treatment of meniscus tears since the 1980's. The purpose of this study is to analyze the clinical outcomes of using the smaller diameter Nanoscope for partial menisectomy. The authors hypothesize that the Nanoscopic partial menisectomy patients will have less pain and return function faster than standard arthroscopy.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of AM3101 to facilitate meniscal repair and reduce the incidence of non-healing complications and morbidities associated with a failed meniscal repair. This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blinded, multi-center study.
This study is a post-market follow-up study. The data collected from this study will serve the purpose of confirming the safety and performance of the JuggerStitch Device used for meniscal repair according to the product labelling (Instruction For Use).
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of semiconductor sleeves on the treatment of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) or Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Meniscus (ACL+Meniscus) arthroscopic surgery. The effect of the sleeves will be analyzed through patient reported and clinically measured outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do the semiconductor sleeves improve the functional outcomes compared to the placebo? * Will patients experience improved functional outcomes in a shorter period of time compared to the placebo? Researchers will compare semiconductor fabric sleeves to a placebo (a look-alike sleeve that contains no semiconductor material) to see if the semiconductor fabric better treats ACL and ACL+meniscus surgical patients. Participants will: * Wear semiconductor or placebo leg sleeve for 4 weeks and knee sleeve for the following 12 weeks * Complete patient reported outcome surveys
The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy of dronabinol for postoperative pain after arthroscopic surgery of the knee. The investigators hypothesize that dronabinol will relieve pain, reduce opioid consumption and will result in few negative side effects. If this pilot study shows promising results the investigators will expand the trial to include additional arthroscopic surgeries (hip, shoulder) and other types of orthopaedic surgery.
This is a multicenter randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess whether a 6-month course of oral montelukast after ACL reconstruction reduces systemic markers of inflammation and biochemical and imaging biomarkers of cartilage degradation. This study will specifically target older ACL reconstruction patients with concomitant meniscal injuries as this group is at greatest risk of rapid PTOA progression. Patients will randomly be assigned to receive oral montelukast (10 mg) versus placebo daily for 6 months after surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate post-operative outcomes after meniscus surgery in participants undergoing blood flow restriction training as a rehabilitative adjunct compared to those with standard rehabilitation.
