Evaluation of the Diagnostic and Therapeutic Value of Tissue Ultrafiltration in Patients at Risk of Acute Compartment Syndrome (ACS)
Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if tissue ultrafiltration (TUF) catheters can reduce intramuscular pressure and prevent acute compartment syndrome (ACS) in adults ages 18-60 with severe proximal tibia or tibial shaft fractures. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will intramuscular pressure (IMP) be lower in the TUF cohort compared to controls? Will the consensus likelihood of AC...
Continuous Compartment Pressure Monitoring for Compartment Syndrome in Venoarterial-Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Patients - A Preliminary Feasibility Study
Summary: Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is a surgical emergency that can develop in patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). ACS is a type of limb ischemia, which means that the limb, such as the arm or leg, loses blood flow. Patients on ECMO can develop this condition for many reasons, but most commonly from the ECMO procedure itself. This most commonly involves the leg. Key symptoms of A...
Effectiveness of Night Splinting After Percutaneous Needle Fasciotomy in Dupuytren's Contracture - a Randomised Controlled Multicenter Trial
Summary: Dupuytren's contracture (DC) is associated with progressive finger flexion and extension deficit caused by fibrosis in the palm and digits. Treatment options include minimally invasive procedures such as percutaneous needle fasciotomy (PNF) and collagenase clostridium histolyticum injections as well as open fasciectomy. PNF has recently become more popular in Sweden because it is an office-based p...
Is Physiotherapy or Fasciotomy the Best Treatment Option for Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome in the Anterior Compartment of the Lower Leg? A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Summary: It is hypothesized that physiotherapy including a change in running landing pattern and surgical fasciotomy are equally good as treatment options for chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) of the anterior compartment of the lower leg. The endpoints/outcomes are: Change from week 0 (start of study) to week 12 (completion of intervention) in: patient reported outcome measure (PROM) (Exercise...
Percutaneous Needle Fasciotomy (PNF) +/- Corticosteroid Injection for Dupuytren's Contracture (DC) Affecting Metacarpophalangeal Joints (MCP) . A Randomized Controlled Trial
Summary: Comparing percutaneous needle fasciotomy +/- corticosteroid injection for Dupuytren's contracture affecting metacarpophalangeal joints. A clinician-initiated, multicenter, randomized controlled trial.
ACS After Femoropopliteal Arterial Injuries
Summary: Crural Compartment syndrome is a well-known sequela after femoropopliteal arterial injuries in the lower extremity, particularly when there has been a long period of ischemia,need for ligation of a major vein, or when there is severe associated soft tissue.There is conteoversy in the treatment.
Acute Compartment Syndrome
Summary: Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is defined as a clinical entity originated from trauma or other conditions, and remains challenging to diagnose and treat effectively. Threre is the controversy in diagnosing, treating ACS. It was found that there was no criterion about the ACS, and result unnecessary osteotomy. The presence of clinical assessment (5P) always means the necrosis of muscles and was t...
