Primary Objective: The primary goal of this research project is to evaluate the effect of a rockered shoe on walking and running biomechanics in healthy athletes and athletes with Achilles tendinopathy. The reason for using a patient group is that…
The effectiveness of PRP treatment in patients suffering from chronic lateral epicondylitis is still ambiguous. Therefore we study PRP treatment in a double blind randomized controlled trial in a homogeny patient population with respect to duration…
There is no high-level clinical evidence, with regard to clinical outcome, for the superiority of ESWT versus treatment with needling. The objective of this trial is to compare high-energy ESWT and ultrasound guided double percutaneous needling in…
Study of functional outcome after arthroscopic tenotomy of long head biceps tendon vs. arthroscopic debridement vs. conservative treatment as treatment for degenerative rotator cuff ruptures in patients 65 years or older.
The aim of the study is to compare the radiological outcome of three different biocomposite interference screws (BIS) in two different ACL-reconstruction techniques with reference to TW, absorption and clinical follow up after three years.
To compare the functional results of LHB tenotomy and LHB tenodesis when performed in adjunct to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
To compare the effects of exercise therapy on mouth opening using the TheraBite and the DTS in a randomized controlled trial in head and neck cancer patients suffering from trismus.
To determine the effect of the adjuvant application of PRP after NACD on pain reduction, recovery of shoulder function, tendon recovery, resorption of calcific deposits, the percentage of patients with persistent complains and quality of life. The…
The purpose of this study will be to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of a multifocal SMR treatment on pain and stiffness compared to ECC in active recreational runners with self-reported Achilles tendon complaints.Research question: Is a 12-…
The objective of the study is to find answers on the research question: does activation of descending nociceptive inhibitory mechanisms via central pain medication lead to changes in kinematic and/or muscular changes in shoulder function?
To examine the effectiveness of custom made orthotic insoles by a podiatrist, compared to sham orthotic insoles and education alone in patients with plantar fasciitis in terms of pain, function and recovery.
Our primary objective is to assess the preventive effects of core stability training in reduction of the incidence density for injury and dropout rate in the Basic Dutch Marine Corps Training 15/2 , 16/1 and 16/2.We want to establish the preventive…
Primary Objective: To study the effect of PNT and structured physiotherapy on function and pain of patients with lateral epicondylalgia.Secondary Objectives: To study the effect of PNT and structured physiotherapy on quality of life, patient…
To evaluate the 2.9 mm JuggerKnot Soft Anchor in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair regarding (1) orientation, dimensions and remodelling of the bone tunnel after anchor placement (e.g. cyst formation, osteolysis), (2) integrity of the rotator cuff…
To determine the long-term effects of meniscal allograft transplantation with regard to the radiological and patient related outcome (PRO), and the correlation between the two. The preoperative data of the MRI, Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA…
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of virtual reality on gait and stair descending in patients with an Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction.
Objective of the ANKLE TRIAL is to differentiate between results of three types of functional treatment in a profound methodological way, with primary research question: what will be the optimal functional treatment for acute lateral ankle ligament…
To examine the effectiveness of taping shoulders with a subacromial impingement syndrome using a rondomized controlled trial.
The objective is to evaluate and compare the outcome of conventional open or arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery, by means of clinical scores and biomechanical studies (range of motion, scapulohumeral rhythm, muscle activation patterns).
The primary objective is to determine the effectiveness of RSWT versus FSWT in treating patellar tendinopathy.
