NCT07004374
This randomized controlled study aims to investigate the effects of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) and percussion massage therapy on balance, explosive strength, and functional performance in competitive adolescent rowers. A total of 45 participants aged 13-18 will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: vibration therapy group, soft tissue mobilization group, and control group. Interventions will target the quadriceps and gastrocnemius muscles. Outcome measures include the Y Balance Test, vertical jump, hop tests, and isometric muscle strength via myometry. The results of this study are expected to provide evidence-based insights into optimizing performance and injury prevention strategies in rowing athletes.
NCT05448807
Local anaesthesia is considered one of the most alarming and non-comfortable dental procedures for children. This goes back to the persisting effect of the local anaesthesia after finishing dental procedures. The effect of Local anaesthesia can last from 3 to 5 hours due to the presence of vasoconstrictor. The U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA approved the use of phentolamine mesylate (Oraverse) in May 2008 to be used as a drug in reversing the numbing effect of Local anaesthesia by decreasing the time needed to restore the normal functions of the mouth
NCT03544632
Although other methods (e.g., autologous fat transfer, dermal-/collagen-based fillers) for soft tissue reconstruction exist, each has distinct disadvantages leaving room for improvement in this treatment area. Investigators in the Elisseeff Laboratory (Johns Hopkins University Department of Biomedical Engineering) have recently generated a novel tissue-derived material to create instructive matrices for soft tissue reconstruction called Acellular Adipose Tissue (AAT). This material takes advantage of the inherent bioactivity and unique mechanical properties of subcutaneous adipose tissue. Investigators' preclinical data suggest that AAT is safe for use in small and large animals; investigators' clinical (Phase I) data suggest that AAT is safe for use in humans. These data indicate that a Phase II, dose-escalation study of AAT's safety and efficacy in human subjects is warranted.

NCT05990842
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the use of antibiotics with no use in people undergoing soft tissue hand surgery in developing countries. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is an antibiotic necessary for this type of surgery in this population? Researchers will compare a group of patients who receives antibiotics during the surgical procedure with a group who receives no antibiotics to see if infection rates are the same.
NCT04802473
OrACell has been tested as a barrier in bone regenerative procedures showing promising results in new bone formation after socket preservation, but no data is available on root coverage procedures. Moreover, it has been suggested that keratinized tissue width (KTW) ≥2mm and gingival thickness (GT) ≥1.2 mm at 6 months of the surgical procedures are two important predictors for long term stability of gingival margin Therefore, it was hypothesized that soft tissue thickness and keratinized tissue width may influence the percentage of root coverage. By means of a prospective case series (12 patients in total), the aim is to study the performance of the OrACell dermal matrix in the treatment of multiple and adjacent gingival recessions, determining the amount of complete root coverage obtained at 6 months of follow-up. At the same time, it is intended to evaluate the effect of initial gingival thickness, by means of digital scanning, upon the success of root coverage procedure with OrACell.
NCT05467644
Postoperative bone infection is a severe complication in the treatment of fractures and is more frequent than in elective joint replacement surgeries. Surgical treatment is based on meticulous debridement of bone and soft tissue, dead space management, soft tissue reconstruction when necessary, and restoration of bony stability in the non-union fracture. In addition, local antibiotic therapy is recommended in certain circumstances. This study aims to evaluate the results of surgical treatment of fracture-related infection in Latin America.
NCT03880188
This study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds 2-30 years ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted.
NCT05213871
Mechanical neck pain has become a major health problem recently, affecting around one-year prevalence ranging from 42 to 67% in young adults aged 20-24 years causing pain and functional deficits. No study has been conducted before to investigate the effect of Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) with mechanical neck pain on university students involved in distance learning.
NCT04177537
Low-intensity continuous ultrasound (LICUS) is an FDA-approved bio regenerative technology, applied with a wearable device (SAM, Zetroz Systems LLC) for daily use. The treatment provides long-duration ultrasound for approximately four hours. This report included a retrospective convenience sample of 6 athletes from one sports medicine and rehabilitation facility. The objective of this report is to examine the real-world outcome data on symptoms improvement and return to function using Sam. It was hypothesized that LICUS stimulation, in conjunction with traditional therapies, will accelerate the healing process of musculoskeletal tissue leading to a reduction in pain, increase functionality, and a higher probability of returning to work and sports-related activities. The sample included athletes with sports-related musculoskeletal injuries. Demographics, injury history, treatment history, and clinical outcomes data were retrospectively collected for athletes who were treated with SAM in conjunction with traditional therapies. Clinical results showed a benefit from the treatment with a decrease in pain (100%), and 3 out of 6 athletes were able to return to work or sports (50%). Overall the study shows that Sam accelerates the healing of soft tissue leading to a decrease in both acute and chronic pain.

NCT01759498
Since hydrogen therapy in humans seems to be beneficial for treating inflammation, ischemia-reperfusion injury and oxidative stress, it seems plausible to evaluate the effects of exogenously administered hydrogen as an element of instant management of sport-related soft tissue injuries (e.g. muscle sprain, ligament strain, tendonitis, contusion). The main aim of the present study will be to examine the effects of two-week hydrogen-rich oral and topical administration on the inflammation, recovery and functional abilities in competitive male and female athletes after acute soft-tissue injury. During the season 2012/2013 (from February to June) subjects (36 professional athletes) will be recruited and examined by certified sports medicine specialist in the out-patient clinics of the Center for Health, Exercise and Sport Sciences in the first 24 hours after the sport-related soft tissue injury was sustained. The subjects will be allocated to a double-blind design to three randomly assigned trials. During the period of 2 weeks subjects in the placebo group (PLA) will receive traditional treatment protocol after the soft-tissue injury, consisting of RICE protocol during the first 48 h and sub-acute protocol thereafter. Subjects in the first experimental group will follow the above procedures with additional administration of oral hydrogen-rich capsules (4 capsules three times per day) throughout the study. Subjects in the second experimental group will follow the procedures of first experimental group with additional administration of hydrogen-rick packs 6 times per day for 20 minutes throughout the study. Participants will be evaluated at the beginning of the study (e.g. at the time of the injury report), after 7 and 14 days after baseline testing for: a) serum C-reactive protein, plasma viscosity and interleukin 6 level, b) pain intensity during rest and walking, c) degree of joint swelling, d) passive joint flexibility, and, e) subjective side-effects. The investigators expect that the administration of hydrogen will significantly improve inflammation outcomes (e.g. decrease in serum C-reactive protein) as compared to the placebo, with topical hydrogen administration will additionally improve post-injury recovery outcomes (e.g. pain intensity, degree of swelling). These results could support the hypothesis that hydrogen-rich intervention may be included as an element of immediate treatment for sport-related soft tissue injuries.
