The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of a novel, bioresorbable hydrogel sheet and wetting solution, VersaWrap®, in surgeries of the foot and ankle. This is a prospective, multi-center, controlled case series with patients identified by the Investigator in his practice. Patients who are scheduled to have procedures of the Achilles tendon will be reviewed to determine if they meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria. If eligible, patients may be enrolled in the study, and the operative surgeon will use VersaWrap® during the procedure. Patients are considered enrolled when VersaWrap® is placed intraoperatively. VersaWrap® has received its FDA 510(k) clearance. Enrollment is expected to take approximately 1-2 years. All subjects will be followed for 1 year post-operatively for a total study duration of approximately 3 years. Study follow-up visits will occur at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after surgery. Patients enrolled in this study are receiving a standard of care surgical procedure (with or
without VersaWrap) and therefore there is no increased risk of the surgical procedure when participating in the study. The study collects patient data, and therefore there is a risk data privacy loss. Patients will also receive remuneration for their participation.

This study will examine the effects of 3 different physical activity goals on arthritis-related outcomes in adults with arthritis. Participants will be randomized to either 45 minutes/week, 90 minutes/week, or 150 minutes/week. Additionally, this study will examine how daily activity can influence arthritis-related outcomes such as pain and fatigue.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug ZILRETTA (Triamcinolone Acetonide, extended release) compared to a placebo (saline solution) and the current treatment of TCA-IR (Triamcinolone Acetonide, immediate release). The study drug is administered through an ultrasound-guided injection to the affected shoulder. Forty percent of subjects will receive Zilretta, forty percent will receive TCA-IR and twenty percent will receive placebo.
The study Drug ZILRETTA, is currently FDA-approved for knee osteoarthritis and is being investigated in this study for treatment of shoulder osteoarthritis. The study population consists of adults 50-85 years of age, BMI under 40, who have been diagnosed with Osteoarthritis of the shoulder by x-ray and has had pain for over 15 days out of the past month. The study has 10 study visits over 24-week's and will include, but is not limited to a questionnaire, medical examination, shoulder x-ray and blood draws. Each visit should last less than 1 hour, depending on the procedures performed. The most common side effects of the study drug are joint pain, headaches, upper respiratory infections, back pain, joint swelling, and cold symptoms.

Twelve patients with osteoarthritis of the knee will undergo Geniculate Artery Embolization for treatment of knee pain. Prior to the procedure, patients will undergo MRI imaging of the affected knee which will include contrast enhanced images and dynamic contrast enhanced images. The MRI will measure the degree of abnormal blood flow in the synovial lining of the knee joint as well as change in the knee joint structure found in osteoarthritis. Patients will be followed at 1, 6, and 12 months after the procedure, and knee pain as well as medication usage will be assessed at each interval. At the 6-month visit, patients will undergo a second MRI with contrast that will be used to compare the changes in blood flow and knee joint structure.

The purpose of this study is to create and maintain a registry, which is a database (a searchable collection of information) about children, adolescents and young adults with pediatric onset of rheumatic diseases. This data may help in the evaluation of the safety and benefit of medications that are prescribed to patients who have rheumatic diseases.
