11 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a research study which is being done to determine the outcomes following Agility LP ankle replacement. This implant was approved by the FDA in 2007 and has been used since then with good early results. You are being asked to volunteer for this study because you have undergone Total Ankle Arthroplasty with Agility LP prosthesis. The purpose of the study is to compare the range of motion, level of pain and function during daily living prior to and after your ankle surgery.
A post market, prospective, non-randomized, multi-center, open-label,clinical study using survivorship as the reference performance goal to study the safety and efficacy of the Cadence Total Ankle System (TAS) when used for primary ankle arthroplasty.
The primary objective of this study is to obtain implant survivorship and clinical outcome data for commercially available Zimmer Trabecular Metal Total Ankle implants used in primary or revision total ankle arthroplasty. The assessment will include implant survivorship and clinical performance measured by pain and function, quality of life data, radiographic parameters and survivorship.
The purpose of this study is to examine the long term survivorship of the Scandinavian Total Ankle Replacement (STAR). Specifically, this study focuses on the revision and/or removal rate of any component of the STAR ankle.
This post-approval study is being conducted to examine the performance of the STAR Ankle under actual conditions of use.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of the S.T.A.R. device for patients with bilateral disease.
This post market outcome study will look at the therapeutic results of the Salto Talaris Anatomic ankle prosthesis. The study population will consist of patients who will undergo an ankle arthroplasty procedure with a Salto Talaris ankle implant. An analysis will be conducted of the results, complications and revisions of this prosthesis based on the etiology for which the ankle arthroplasty was performed.
The H3 TAR Prosthesis was approved by FDA (P160036) on June 4, 2019. Continued approval of the premarket approval application (PMA) is contingent upon the submission of periodic reports (Annual Report), required under 21 CFR 814.84. In order to provide continued reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the PMA device, data from this post-approval study must be submitted to FDA in a PMA Post-Approval Study Report per the requirements set forth in the approval.
The proposed study evaluates the effect of carbon fiber brace design on forces across the ankle. Research suggests that ankle arthritis develops following ankle fracture due, in part, to elevated forces on the cartilage. It is expected that carbon fiber braces can reduce forces in the ankle joint thereby reducing the risk of developing arthritis following injury. In this study, carbon fiber braces will be tested to determine how they influence the forces acting on the ankle cartilage. The proposed study will provide evidence that can be used by clinicians and researchers to design carbon fiber braces to effectively reduce forces on ankle cartilage.
The proposed study evaluates the effect of carbon fiber brace design on forces across the ankle joint. Research suggests that ankle arthritis develops after ankle fracture, in part, due to elevated forces on the cartilage. It is expected that carbon fiber braces can be designed to reduce forces in the ankle joint and thereby reduce the risk of developing arthritis following traumatic injury. In this study, brace geometry will be varied to determine how these changes influence the forces experienced by ankle cartilage. The proposed study will provide evidence that can be used by clinicians and researchers to design braces that most effectively reduce forces on ankle cartilage.
Carbon fiber custom dynamic orthoses (CDOs) consist of a proximal cuff that wraps around the leg just below the knee, a posterior carbon fiber strut that stores and returns energy during gait, and a carbon fiber foot plate that supports the foot and allows bending of the posterior strut. The proximal cuff is a primary interface between the patient and the CDO and may influence comfort, preference, limb mechanics and loading, and effective stiffness of the CDO. The important role of the proximal cuff has not been examined. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of CDO proximal cuff design on patient reported outcomes, limb mechanics and loading, and CDO mechanical characteristics.
