View clinical trials related to Knee Arthroplasty, Total.
Filter by:The investigators aimed to evaluate the efficacy of selective low volume ultrasound-guided blockades of the saphenous and obturator nerves on dynamic and rest pain 24-hours post-operatively for patients undergoing unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty.
This randomized clinical trial (RCT) examined 10 year outcomes comparing SCORPIO™ Posterior Cruciate Substituting (PCS) versus Posterior Cruciate Retaining (PCR) Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) as the primary outcome.
Our aim is to investigate which components of the quadriceps femoris muscle are affected following an ACB with different volumes (10, 20 and 30 ml) of 1% lignocaine evaluated by electromyography. Both a placebo treatment (20ml saline) and the femoral nerve block (20ml lignocaine 1%) as an active comparative will be used for model control. Further, we want to investigate the effect of volume on motor block. This will be evaluated by measuring the Maximum Voluntary Isometric Contraction (MVIC) of the quadriceps femoris muscle.
To compare the outcomes of patients receiving the ConforMIS custom total knee implant to the outcomes of patients who receiving an off-the-shelf total knee implant. Hypothesis: Patient-specific, custom total knee implants manufactured from patient CT data, and implanted with CT-navigated custom instruments will show faster functional recovery, including gait and patient functional outcome scores, when compared to standard, off-the-shelf total knee components inserted with non-navigated instruments (the present standard of care in total knee surgery).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of manual lymphatic drainage to decrease the swelling of the knee after total knee replacement surgery
