Summary: Crepitus causing unsatisfied result to patients after posterior stabilized total knee arthroplasty. Recent retrospective study demonstrated removal of hyperplastic synovium in distal quadriceps caused reduce of crepitus. However, this study has limitation of time gap exist between arms, different in observation time and bias caused by retrospective review. Thus aim of this study is that by randomi...

Summary: The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy of STABL rehabilitation vs in-person rehabilitation following meniscectomy or synovectomy. STABL is a digital health platform that uses computer-vision technology to facilitate at-home post-op recovery for patients while enabling remote monitoring by their surgeon.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical and functional outcomes of patients with mild to moderate arthroscopically confirmed osteoarthritis between the following two groups: 1. Partial fat pad harvest with Adipose-Derived Stem Cell (ADSC) transplantation with standard arthroscopic treatment consisting of: partial meniscectomy, cartilage stabilization, loose body removal and selective ...
