To evaluate the effectiveness of eccentric calf muscle exercise therapy compared to strength training of the upper extremities (control group) in patients with chronic midportion Achilles tendinopathy.
This intervention study investigates the effectiveness, costs and cost-effectiveness of a protein-enriched diet and resistance exercise training for 3 months on bone and muscle health, and quality of life in older adults recovering from an acute…
To evaluate in SSc patients with low risk for disease progression 1) whether assessment in an outpatient clinic setting is an acceptable alternative for evaluation in the Care Pathway. Outcome parameters we will evaluate include 1) health care…
Phase 2 pilot-study: to examine feasible exercise dosages in patients with mCRC and collect data on preliminary effects on clinical outcomes.Phase 3 trial: to collect data on the efficacy of exercise on 1) chemotherapy dose modifications and 2)…
To evaluate the safety, feasibility and efficacy of an 8-week remotely supervised home-based maintenance exercise training program following pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COPD.
This project aims to investigate peripheral and central neuroplasticity following an early (<13 weeks after injury) and intensive (8 weeks of 6 hours of additional therapy) upper extremity motor training program (EIUMT)…
In this research, we are comparing two distinct physiotherapy treatments as post-operative care following shoulder arthroscopy (Bankart repair). Our aim is to gain a better understanding of how to provide optimal post-operative care for patients…
Primary Objective: To assess the add-on effect of the EMD-U treatment compared to CAU, in improving dermatology-specific quality of life in patients with atopic dermatitis or prurigo nodularis who suffer from severe scratching behaviour. Hypothesis…
This pilot study aims to establish the feasibility of offering PCT live or online to MDD patients in remission due to rTMS by measuring treatment adherence using descriptive data and daily affect. Results will be used to improve patient compliance…
