The clinic includes coordinated care from heart doctors, kidney doctors, diabetes specialists, and liver doctors. The study will compare two groups of patients: one receiving usual care from their primary care provider, and one re...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of intramuscular methylprednisolone in patients with hand osteoarthritis. The main question it aims to answer is what the difference is in hand pain 4 weeks after the first injection with methylplrednisolone. This main goal will be assessed in the first 16 weeks, the RCT phase. Researchers will compare 120mg methylprednisolone...

Summary: This study seeks to evaluate the impact of intra-operative topical epidural steroid usage in patients undergoing 1-2 level lumbar laminectomy. The study will examine post-operative opioid usage, length of stay, return to work, and patient reported outcomes following these procedures.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate conservative pain relief measures for patients suffering from glenohumeral arthritis or rotator cuff arthropathy. Conservative management of osteoarthritis is often first line treatment, and while a corticosteroid injection is frequently used, suprascapular nerve blocks have not often been described as an analgesic option in this population.

Summary: Chronic lumber facet joint pain is defined according to international association of study of pain (IASP)as multifactorial phenomenon of pain that persist more than 3 months after an injury and /or beyond the usual course of an acute lumber facet pain or a reasonable time for a comparable injury to heal . lumber facet joint degeneration (LRFJ) is the 1st source of chronic low back pain with an inc...

Summary: Rotator cuff injuries are a major cause of severe pain, often significantly impacting patients\' sleep quality. For patients waiting for surgery or those not eligible for operative treatment, conservative treatment is recommended. In cases of minor injuries, physiotherapy is as effective as surgical intervention. The aim of this study is: (1) to compare the speed, effectiveness, and durability...

Summary: This clinical trial evaluates whether geriatric assessment-driven interventions with supportive care (GAIN-S) using telemedicine can be used to identify areas of vulnerability (weakness) in older adults with cancer and guide interventions to assist the patient and the healthcare team in the underserved community. The majority of patients diagnosed with cancer are over age 65 years, yet most cancer...

Summary: The goal of this study is to determine the effects of a corticosteroid administered to the psoas muscle following a transpsoas lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) on postoperative hip flexor weakness and thigh pain and numbness.

Summary: The objective of this phase 2 study is to investigate the efficacy of Dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DEX) plus Methylprednisolone acetate (MPA) in combination with plain bupivacaine (B) compared with Liposomal Bupivacaine (LB) in combination with plain bupivacaine on post-surgical pain control among patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to asses if perineural B-DEX-MPA will...

Summary: The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of Dexamethasone sodium phosphate plus Methylprednisolone acetate in combination with plain bupivacaine ((B-DEX-MPA) compared with Liposomal Bupivacaine in combination with plain bupivacaine (B-LB) on post-surgical pain control among patients undergoing bilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to asses if perineural B-DEX-MPA will result in...

Summary: This study compares three common treatments for frozen shoulder when added to a standard exercise program: High-Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT), a corticosteroid (steroid) injection into the shoulder joint, and hands-on manual therapy by a physical therapist. A fourth group will receive only the standard exercise program. The goal is to see which combination works best to reduce shoulder pain and i...

Objectives: Primary: to develop a model based on demographic, clinical and radiological parameters for prediction of treatment success after TEI Secondary: to estimate the short-term efficacy of TEI in patients with LDH and spinal stenosis based on pain, functionality and perceived recovery scores, to determine the correlation between clinical and radiological baseline parameters and physical and psychologica...
