Evaluating Intercostobrachial Nerve Block's Effect on Pain Control After Shoulder Replacement

Interscalene blocks are frequently performed to decrease postoperative pain after shoulder surgeries and are considered the gold standard for pain control after this type of surgery. Some patients report pain in the axilla (armpit) following shoulder replacement surgeries. Sensation in the axilla is supplied by nerves not covered by the interscalene block. Sensation in the axilla can be decreased by performing an intercostobrachial nerve block. This study aims to study whether adding an intercostobrachial nerve block to the interscalene block decreases recovery room stay time, opioid pain medication requirement, and postoperative pain scores.

EXPAREL IPSA Block in Knee Arthroplasty

This is a case series to assess the clinical utility of an Intra-articular Posteromedial Surgeon Administered (IPSA) Block in patients undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Extended Oral Tranexamic Acid After Total Knee Arthroplasty

The utilization of intraoperative tranexamic acid (TXA), whether administered intravenously or orally, has become a standard practice in total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Multiple studies have demonstrated the positive impact that TXA application has on clinical outcomes, including decreased blood loss and transfusion rates, decreased early swelling and ecchymosis, improved early recovery, and potentially superior long-term outcomes. Its ability to mitigate risk of blood loss made ambulatory total knee arthroplasty (TKA) safer for patients. The safety of intraoperative TXA use has also been documented. Sabbag et al. showed that TXA does not increase the risk of...

G7 Dual Mobility With Vivacit-E or Longevity PMCF

This study is a global, multi-center, prospective, non-controlled, non-randomized, post-market clinical follow-up study. The main objectives of this study are to confirm the long-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the G7 Dual Mobility Acetabular System when used with the Vivacit-E or Longevity polyethylene hip bearing and instrumentation in primary total and revision (total) hip arthroplasty

G7 Freedom Constrained Vivacit-E Liners

The main objectives of this study are to confirm the long-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the G7 Freedom Constrained Vivacit-E Acetabular Liners in primary and revision total hip arthroplasty.

GA + ESP Vs. SA + ESP in Lumbar Decompression Surgeries

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal anesthetic routine for lumbar decompression surgery. General Anesthesia is the standard of care in spine surgery. Spinal anesthesia in decompressive procedures can be the new standard of care. Recently, it has been found that regional analgesia is option that has been shown to improve pain and opioid-related outcomes after spine surgery, but has not yet been studied in combination with spinal anesthesia. This is study that consists of two groups: standard of care general anesthesia with a nerve block and a spinal anesthesia with nerve block. Patients are randomized to either of the two groups. There will be 71 patients...

Group Coaching Study for Life Goals

This study plans to implement's group coaching with neurodivergent STEM undergraduate students, individuals with spinal cord injuries and their caregivers, and individuals with Ehler's Danlos Syndrome. A trained coach will facilitate the 10 group coaching sessions using the project created coaching protocol. Assessments at pretest and posttest will include two measures addressing the concept of self-efficacy and two others addressing belonging, as well as a battery of tools estimating feasibility.

Imaging Biomarkers for Myofascial Pain

Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is highly prevalent in the community. It is primarily diagnosed using patient self reports and physical examination, which lack reliability, sensitivity and specificity and does not provide insights into the abnormal biological and physiological processes in soft tissues. While a number of treatment methods are available to patients, there are currently no criteria to determine which treatments might be best for each patient's unique myofascial pain phenotype. To improve evidence-based management of myofascial pain, there is a critical need to develop quantitative measures that advance the understanding of the physiological processes in the...
