The Presence of a Therapy Dog Reduces Pain and Anxiety During Pediatric Elbow Pin Removal

The purpose of this research study is to assess whether the presence of therapy dogs can reduce pain and anxiety in children ages 3 to 10 having pins removed from their elbow.

A Study of Collagen Scaffold for the Repair of Elbow Cartilage Injury

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether adding a collagen protein scaffold can improve cartilage repair in elbow joint injuries, compared to standard surgery alone. The study will enroll 90 patients (aged 18-55) with elbow cartilage damage who haven't responded to conservative treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the collagen scaffold help regenerate better-quality cartilage (measured by MRI scans at 3 and 6 months)? * Do patients experience better pain relief and elbow function after this combined treatment? Researchers will compare two groups: * Experimental group : Receives microfracture surgery + collagen scaffold implant * Active Comparator group : Receives microfracture surgery alone Participants will: * Undergo arthroscopic surgery (either procedure) * Complete follow-up visits at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months * Have MRI scans and functional assessments * Report pain levels and daily activity limitations through questionnaires
