This study aims to enhance at-home therapy by introducing a new device called the BAND Connect's VirtuaCare™ platform. The study aims to determine whether patients can improve their adherence to at-home exercises using this device. Currently, research indicates that only 35% of patients undergoing physical therapy treatment fully comply with their prescribed plans of care, often neglecting their at-home exercises. To address this issue, a set of smart exercise tools called VirtuaCare™ has been developed. This platform provides patients with instructions on performing at-home exercises and offers real-time biofeedback to help them adjust their form if necessary. The study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of BAND CVCP in assisting patients and improving their overall success with at-home therapy.

The subscapularis is part of the rotator cuff and is release as part of a reverse shoulder replacement. The decision to repair this tendon is controversial. This research is being done to help determine if rotator cuff repair improves or hinders shoulder replacement. A worrisome but rare complication after shoulder replacement is dislocation. Rotator cuff repair may help reduce this risk. The repair may hinder some of the range of motion afterwards or could help with internal rotation strength. There is a chance that the repair doesn't matter at all. The goal of this study is to delineate outcomes after reverse shoulder arthroplasty with the respect to management of the subscapularis tendon. Further information about rotator cuff repair after reverse shoulder replacement can help define complications, potentially decrease OR time, and improve functional outcomes. A total of 148 patients will be enrolled and the duration of the study will be 5 years. All patients will be required to follow-up at 2¬-week, 6-week, 3-month, 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year post-operative marks. Any time information is collected for a study there is a small risk of breach of confidentiality. There are no monetary costs or payments associated with this study. You may or may not benefit by taking part in this study. There is no guarantee that you will receive direct benefit from your participation in this study. To be clear, participation in this study is completely voluntary.

The purpose of this study is to compare two different antibiotic regimens and techniques during total shoulder arthroplasty. Primary Objective: Comparable levels of vancomycin will be found in bone, soft tissue, and systemic samples between patient groups. Secondary Objective: Compare 30 day and 90 day post-operative complication rates (infection) between the control (standard IV administration of vancomycin) vs the interventional group (intraosseous administration of vancomycin). The investigators hypothesize that there will be no difference in complication (infection) rates between groups.

The investigators purpose of the proposed study is to use the FDA approved Shoulder Pacemaker device in patients undergoing reverse shoulder arthroplasty and study the functional outcomes compared to a standard post-operative rehabilitation program. The investigators hypothesize that use of the Shoulder Pacemaker reduce pain and will allow for improved range of motion and function in patients undergoing RSA. The findings of this research may very well improve function in RSA patients through a novel, non-invasive approach.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the current standard of care for rehabilitation of non-operative shoulder injuries to a novel, criteria-based approach (CRISP). Additionally, this study will identify factors which contribute to return to duty readiness. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Are there differences in patient reported outcomes between participants who undergo the criteria-based rehabilitation program versus the standard of care for shoulder injuries? * Are there differences in clinical measures (strength, etc.) between participants who undergo the criteria-based rehabilitation program versus the standard of care for shoulder injuries? * Are there clinical or rehabilitation factors, or participant characteristics, that contribute to return to duty readiness? Participants will be randomized to either complete their rehabilitation per the standard of care with a physical therapist in a Military Treatment Facility or complete the CRISP program with a research physical therapist. Participants will: * Attend physical therapy for a non-operative shoulder injury * Attend initial and final clinical assessments at the clinic * Complete patient reported outcomes at 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-month timepoints

This trial is testing whether PEMF therapy can help reduce pain in patients who have had shoulder or knee surgery. PEMF therapy uses electromagnetic waves to interact with the body's cells, which may reduce pain and speed up healing. The study will measure pain levels, medication use, and physical function after surgery. PEMF therapy has been evaluated as a therapeutic strategy for pain management in several clinical scenarios, showing positive efficacy and safety profiles.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Slap Tears clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Slap Tears clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Slap Tears trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Slap Tears is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Slap Tears medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Slap Tears clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Criteria-Based Rehabilitation for Shoulder Injuries, Virtual Physical Therapy for Shoulder Injuries and Subscapularis Repair Techniques for Shoulder Injuries to the Power online platform.
