1. Shoulder Arthroscopy: Functional and Clinical Outcomes

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes of patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery.

2. A Study to Measure Elbow and Ankle Range-of-Motion via Teleconferencing

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the validity and reliability of teleconferencing measurements for elbow and ankle joint range of motion (ROM).

3. A Study to Evaluate Photon Counting Detector CT Utility in Identifying Acute Wrist Fractures.

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to examine the ability of PCD-CT to (1) display subtle fractures of the wrist using the system’s increased spatial resolution compared to conventional wrist CT and MR; and (2)  evaluate the ability of PCD-CT with virtual non-calcium images to identify bone marrow edema at acute fracture sites.

    

4. Comparative Effectiveness of Pulmonary Embolism Prevention After Hip and Knee Replacement

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   PEPPER is a randomized study comparing the three most commonly used anticoagulants in North America in patients who have elected to undergo primary or revision hip or knee joint replacement surgery. The anticoagulants being compared are enteric coated aspirin, low intensity warfarin, and rivaroxaban.

5. A Study to Evaluate the Effects of Physical Therapy on Patients Treated with Surgery (Periacetabular Osteotomy or PAO) for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess perioperative and postoperative outcomes to date in patients treated with surgery (Periacetabular Osteotomy or PAO) for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) receiving formal postoperative physical therapy versus those patients who did not receive formal postoperative physical therapy.

6. 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.

7. 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?

8. 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.

9. 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.

10. 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.
