2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The study's aim is to determine the incidence of flexor hallucis tendon tears associated with os trigonum excision. The study will then compare the length until functional return to play of the patients who had flexor hallucis tendon tears with concomitant os trigonum excision versus those without flexor hallucis tendon tears who underwent os trigonum excision. Lastly, the study will be evaluating the patient complaints and physical exam findings before and after surgery and compare those without flexor hallucis tendon tears to those with flexor hallucis tendon repair.
This study is an observational study to test and validate a questionnaire and statistical model used to determine patient preferences regarding treatment for any one of 11 musculoskeletal conditions: hip arthritis, knee arthritis, hip labral tears and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), osteochondritis dissecans, Achilles tendon rupture, patellofemoral dislocation, distal radius fracture, and fractures of the hip, ankle, tibia, and proximal humerus. This study aims to understand how multiple treatment variables, including pain, rehabilitation time, cost, and choice of surgical versus non-surgical intervention, impact patients' decision-making processes and ultimate choice of treatment.
