Filter by:Preoperative rehabilitation before total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has not been proven to be effective. Latest meta-analyzes do not find any improvement of motor performance during gait 6 months after surgery. However, most of the previous studies did not specifically target muscle atrophy to design rehabilitation protocol. Pre-operative muscle atrophy, although not systematic, is often observed. The preoperative muscles volumes of thigh muscles have been poorly identified and never used to adjust the pre operative rehabilitation strategy. As part of the "FOLLOWKNEE" (RHU) project, which attempts to implement a personalized management of TKA and its follow-up, this study wants to explore the potential effect of adapted treatment to improve muscle force and muscle volume before TKA.
Hip arthroplasty is a treatment widely used in most inflammatory, traumatic and degenerative conditions of this joint. The longevity of implants may be disappointing in some cases, despite the promising results obtained during in vitro simulations. Early loco-regional or systemic dissemination, known since the 1990s, of wear particles from these prosthesis may reduce their life span. The analysis of the particles in the synovial fluid and in the articular tissues by electron microscopy after digestion or directly by optical microscopy, will improve the knowledge on the mechanisms of wear. This category 3 study is based on the case-control model and will be conducted in a national reference center (hospital la Croix-Rousse- Lyon). It will include a population of adult patients.
The purpose of this study was to identify the major complications and their risk factors of elderly patients who had undergone Hemi-hip Arthroplasty.
To evaluate the influence of rapid recovery on sleep quality following total hip replacement surgery
The objective of this research project is to perform a comparative study on the in vivo kinematics of the GMK Sphere prosthesis in comparison to the conventional GMK PS Fixed Bearing TKA and the GMK UC Fixed Bearing TKA.
