7 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The objectives of this study are: 1. The investigators plan to evaluate and validate the use of a novel wireless insole device (Loadsol) that provides real-time biofeedback on post-operative mobility and weight bearing following total joint arthroplasty. 2. The investigators plan to utilize the wireless insole device to determine if biofeedback is sufficient for improving gait symmetry following total joint arthroplasty. 3. The investigators plan to determine if there is a correlation between patient reported outcomes and measured postoperative weight bearing.
This is a double-blind prospective randomized control trial. The primary hypothesis is that the preservation of motor function is superior in distal forearm blocks compared to supraclavicular block. The secondary outcomes include patient satisfaction, surgeon's satisfaction, rate of block success, onset and duration of block.
To determine the effect of post-operative abdominal binder usage on total narcotic usage after undergoing surgery. To determine if abdominal binder usage results in decreased visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores and shorter time to first ambulation post operatively.
This trial studies the impact of early mobility tracked with a 3-dimensional (3D) motion tracking technology (XSENS) on post-surgery recovery in patients undergoing oncologic surgeries. Xsens uses wireless measurements which could be used in clinical settings to objectively measure movement patterns (the joint range of movement and the distance of movement) during functional activities. Post-surgery mobility tracking may help doctors to identify the minimum required level of mobility after inpatient oncologic surgeries to enhance early post-surgery recovery and decrease early post-surgery complications.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether preoperative mobility device training is beneficial in reducing incidence of postoperative falls in patients undergoing elective foot and ankle surgery requiring a postoperative period of no weight-bearing.
This randomized pilot trial studies telemonitoring after surgery to preserve limb function in optimizing mobility in cancer survivors with cancer spread to the bone. The use of mobile devices for telemonitoring may improve the delivery of cost-effective, high-quality, standardized surveillance of cancer survivors.
Does having a large diameter metal on polyethylene total hip replacement increase metal ion release. Larger metal heads are thought to have increased torsional forces on the trunion which would like release more metal ions. Increased metal ion levels have been associated with adverse local tissue reactions. Are there any differences comparing these groups to a dual mobility type total hip replacement.
