1. A Study to Assess the Outcome of Scapholunate Ligament Internal Brace 360-Degree Tenodesis (SLITT) Procedure

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to examine the outcomes of Scapholunate Ligament Internal Brace 360-Degree Tenodesis (SLITT) Procedure patients.

2. Autologous Culture Expanded Adipose Derived MSCs for Treatment of Painful Hip OA

   Rochester, Minn.

   Will injection(s) of autologous culture-expanded AMSCs be safe and efficacious for treatment of painful Hip OA, and if so, which dosing regimen is most effective?

3. Ultrasound Utility in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   As CTS is the most commonly diagnosed compression neuropathy of the upper extremity, assessment of severity and treatment response is important crucial to determine the clinical outcomes. Currently, physical examination and overall functional status as well as pre-op electrodiagnostic (EDX) testing are important in determining patient outcome scores and assessing the treatment response. The physical properties of MN and surrounding tissue may be good biomarkers for this evaluation.

   SWE is a qualitative and quantitative method for measuring tissue stiffness. There are limited studies on using SWE for diagnosis of CTS , but other aspects of CTS, including the assessment of severity and treatment response have not been studied. Our central hypothesis is that SWE provides quantitative information about the physical properties of the MN and surrounding tissue that help to identify carpal tunnel syndrome, its severity and response to treatment. If SWE successfully demonstrates efficacy in diagnosing, patient outcome score, and treatment response assessment, it would have a significant clinical impact on patients with CTS, as well as offering an additional confirmatory diagnostic test for true recurrent carpal tunnel syndrome.

4. A Study of Stability and Physical Activity among Patients with Spinal Deformity Before and After Surgery

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine pre-surgical and post-surgical changes in gait stability and free-living activity. The information collected in this study will be used to guide surgical interventions and achieve better functional outcomes.

5. A Study to Evaluate Whether Ultrasound Can Detect Medial Meniscal Extrusion More Frequently Than MRI?

   Minneapolis, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether ultrasound can detect medial meniscal extrusion more frequently than MRI.

6. A Study to Evaluate Comprehensive Arthroscopic Management (CAM) Procedure with Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) for Shoulder Osteoarthritis (OA)

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of concentrated bone marrow aspirate administration after Comprehensive Arthroscopic Management (CAM) surgical procedure, and to determine pain relief, disease progression and range of motion in patients with osteoarthritis of the shoulder.

7. A Study of Scoliosis Survey to Development Treatment Decision Tool

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a survey, with the option of uploading prior clinical imaging (x-rays, etc), with the aim to study the burden of scoliosis disease over time and the results of treatment (specifically the results of nonfusion and fusion scoliosis surgery).  Our goal is to report these results back to the community of people with scoliosis and also publish our results in the medical literature.

8. Identification of Predictors for Clinical Outcomes in Femoroacetabular Impingement Surgery

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to improve the surgical treatment outcomes of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), which is affecting an increasing number of military personnel and young active individuals in the general population. The proposed study will investigate critical patient, disease, and surgical treatment predictors of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) surgery outcomes.

9. A Study to Learn More About Characterization of Different Musculoskeletal Tissues

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this investigation is to characterize the genetic and epigenetic characteristics of different musculoskeletal tissues, as well as their associated disease states. Epigenetic markers represent promising therapeutic targets, as well as diagnostic biomarkers with important clinical utility.

    

10. Management of Hand and Upper Extremity Patients

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to obtain a baseline database of patient functioning seen in the hand clinic and to determine whether the interventions provided to hand surgery patients, be that non operative or operative, improves their function.
