  1. 1. Achilles Tendon Ruptures Predictors; functional and economic impact

    Författare :Olof Westin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Achilles tendon rupture; re-rupture; predictors of outcome; health economics; Achilles tendon Total Rupture Score ATRS ;

    Sammanfattning : Acute Achilles tendon rupture is a common injury, which leads to significant morbidity in patients. Many patients never recover their full function even after long rehabilitation, whereas others make a good recovery. The factors behind this are unknown. The optimal treatment strategy, whether or not to treat surgically, is still controversial. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Acute achilles tendon rupture. Evaluation of treatment and complications

    Författare :Katarina Nilsson-Helander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :achilles tendon rupture; re-rupture; ATRS; rupture; free flap; deep venous thrombosis; heel-rise work test; score; augmentation; movable brace;

    Sammanfattning : The overall purpose of this thesis was to evaluate the treatment of patients with an acute Achilles tendon rupture with regard to complications, function and patient-reported outcome. Moreover, the purpose was to develop and evaluate new outcome measurements... LÄS MER

  4. 3. Chronic Achilles tendon rupture - surgical reconstruction and post-operative outcomes

    Författare :Niklas Nilsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chronic Achilles tendon rupture; Semitendinosus graft; Tissue sample; Achilles tendon re-rupture; Surgical repair; Gastrocnemius aponeurosis free flap; Health economics; Patient-reported outcome measurements;

    Sammanfattning : When the treatment of Achilles tendon ruptures is delayed by more than 4 weeks, the rupture is classified as chronic. This thesis aims to examine the postoperative outcome of chronic Achilles tendon ruptures treated surgically in terms of long-term functional outcomes, patient-reported outcome measurements, biomolecular changes, and economic cost.

  5. 4. On the treatment of Achilles tendon rupture. A prospective, randomised study of the results after surgical and non-surgical treatment

    Författare :Michael Möller; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Achilles tendon; rupture; score; prospective; randomised controlled trial; isokinetic; muscular endurance; magnetic resonance imaging; ultrasonography;

    Sammanfattning : Only two prospective, randomised studies have been published on the outcome after treatment for Achilles tendon rupture. The controversy regarding the optimal treatment continues. In the present study, 112 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture were randomised and all of them were followed up for two years.

  7. 5. Effects of early functional mobilization after acute Achilles tendon rupture repair

    Författare :Susanna Aufwerber; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Patient outcome after Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) varies greatly, and complications such as deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and tendon elongation are common. Although accelerated rehabilitation is considered safe, the optimal content of the rehabilitation protocol is still unknown. LÄS MER
