Motion Analysis in Patients With Hallux Rigidus

Completed

• Conditions: Hallux Rigidus
• Interventions: Other: Motion Analysis

• Registration Number: NCT01804491
• Lead Sponsor: University Hospital Heidelberg

Brief Summary

The aim was to investigate with a multi-segmental foot model the kinetic and kinematic in patients with a hallux rigidus, before and after different type of surgery.

Detailed Description

None of the patients received surgery BECAUSE of the study. We have only performed motion analysis in patients, who were already scheduled for one of the described type of surgery (prospective group) or who already previously received one the type of surgery (retrospective group).

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Control group	Motion Analysis	Healthy age matched control subjects
Cheilectomy prospective group	Motion Analysis	Patients with hallux rigidus treated by the surgery type "cheilectomy"
Arthrodesis prospective group	Motion Analysis	Patients with hallux rigidus treated by the type of surgery "arthrodesis"
Mixed prospective group	Motion Analysis	Patients with hallux rigidus treated by other type of surgery: Arthoplasty, joint resection ("Keller-Brandes technique)
Cheilectomy retrospective group	Motion Analysis	Patients after cheilectomy due to hallux rigidus
Arthrodesis retrospective group	Motion Analysis	Patients after arthrodesis of the metatarsophalageal joint due to hallux rigidus
Mixed retrospective group	Motion Analysis	Patients after other types of surgery due to hallux rigidus: arthroplasty or resection of the first metatarso-phalangeal joint

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change of hallux range of motion	baseline (=1 day before surgery) and 1 y. after surgery for the prospective groups, more than one year after surgery for the retrospective groups
