prednisone and Nerve Root Avulsion

prednisone has been researched along with Nerve Root Avulsion in 12 studies

Prednisone: A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.
prednisone : A synthetic glucocorticoid drug that is particularly effective as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone (a beta-hydroxy group instead of the oxo group at position 11), which is the active drug and also a steroid.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee 6 Weeks After Treatment

Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), a single-question patient rating of 0-100, scoring their function to the area being treated. Zero represents a poor functional knee and 100 is the best functioning. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 6 weeks after treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee 6 Weeks After Treatment

UCLA activity score, on a scale of 1 to 10 where 10 is the most active patient with examples of activities (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 6 weeks after treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee 6 Weeks After Treatment

VR-12: Assesses physical functioning, physical/ mental limitations. Scored as summary of mental and physical, measure in standard deviations. The scale range is 0 to 100, where a score of 100 represents the best physical and mental health and zero is the worst outcome. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 6 weeks after treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee 6 Wks After Treatment

Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) is a survey scored ranging from 0 to 100, where a high score indicates a high degree of a forgetting they have an artificial joint, which is an ideal outcome. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 6 weeks after treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee After Surgery and Treatment

Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS JR), a survey given to patients standard of care containing 7 questions. The score ranges from 0 to 100 where zero represents total disability and 100 represents a perfect knee health. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 6 weeks after treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee After Surgery and Treatment

Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS JR), a survey given to patients standard of care containing 7 questions. The score ranges from 0 to 100 where zero represents total disability and 100 represents a perfect knee health. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: pre treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee Before Treatment

Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), a single-question patient rating of 0-100, scoring their function to the area being treated. Zero represents a poor functional knee and 100 is the best functioning. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: pre treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee Before Treatment

Veterans Rand 12-Item Health Survey (VR-12), a survey of 12 questions to measure health relating to patient's quality of life. Scored as summary of mental and physical, measure in standard deviations. The scale range is 0 to 100, where a score of 100 represents the best physical and mental health and zero is the worst outcome. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: pre treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee Prior to Treatment

Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) is a survey scored ranging from 0 to 100, where a high score indicates a high degree of a forgetting they have an artificial joint, which is an ideal outcome. (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: pre treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Overall Assessment of Knee Prior to Treatment

UCLA activity score, on a scale of 1 to 10 where 10 is the most active patient with examples of activities (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: pre treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Post Treatment Pain Scores

"Knee society score (KSS); done standard of care on a scale of 0-100, where 100 means a more functional knee.~**Please note, the study was terminated early, only 4 subjects were enrolled and none were randomized to the placebo group. At 3 weeks post treatment, only 3 of the 4 subjects enrolled were still part of the study." (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 3 weeks post treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Post Treatment Pain Scores

"Knee society score (KSS); done standard of care on a scale of 0-100, where 100 means a more functional knee.~**Please note, the study was terminated early, only 4 subjects were enrolled and none were randomized to the placebo group. This is a standard of care survey available on all subjects." (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 6 weeks post treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Post Treatment Pain Scores (6 Weeks)

"Using daily defense and veterans pain rating scale (DVPRS) on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the worst.~Please note, only one patient made it to the 6 week post treatment mark of the 4 enrolled. The study was terminated and none of the patients were randomized to the placebo group. All other patients followed up but were not interested in continuing. No range could be provided given only one subject answered and completed this visit" (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: 6 weeks post treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Pre Treatment Pain Scores Using Knee Society Scores

"Knee society score (KSS); done standard of care on a scale of 0-100, where 100 means a more functional knee~**Please note, the study was terminated early, only 4 subjects were enrolled and none were randomized to the placebo group." (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: pre treatment

Patient Reported Outcome Measures:(Immediate) Post Treatment Pain Scores

"Using Daily Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain score, which measures intensity of pain on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible).~**Please note, this study was terminated early, only enrolling 4 patients, none were randomized to the placebo group." (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: Days 1 through 6 following treatment

Range of Motion in Degrees at Pre and Post Treatment

"Range of motion (ROM) from pre-treatment to six weeks following treatment. Patients started treatment after total knee replacement surgery and presented to clinic with at least one inclusion criteria to be enrolled. Range of motion in degrees is taken at each visit by a clinician (standard of care), starting at zero degrees (straight leg) to about 135 degrees. The ROM was documented as part of consenting and enrollment into study. Subjects returned to the office at 6 weeks post treatment where ROM was performed in a clinic setting once again and documented. ROM is done using a goniometer by a clinician in each clinic.~This study was terminated early, therefore of the 4 enrolled, zero were randomized to the placebo group. Only 1 of the four subjects completed the 6 weeks, however, ROM was captured on all as standard of care." (NCT05113901)
Timeframe: Baseline, Week 6 Following Treatment

Oswestry Disability Index, v2

The Oswestry Disability Index, v2 is a back-pain-specific measure of disability and functional status. It is measured on a 0-to-100 scale, with higher numbers indicating greater disability. (NCT00668434)
Timeframe: Baseline, Week 3 follow-up
