Evaluation of an Educational Program Associated With Exercises (EDEX)

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a standardized education and exercise program proposed before a total knee replacement for knee osteoarthritis is effective in functional recovery after surgery.

Clinical Trial Description

Knee osteoarthritis leads to deficiencies in muscle strength, knee range of motion and balance, and cardio respiratory deconditioning that contribute to alter abilities to perform activities of daily living. It is the principal indication for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patients' functional state and pain level are generally improved after TKA and the physical and functional status pre-TKA are predictive of recovery after surgery. Decreasing length of stay at surgery departments and promoting return at home after TKA are recommended. The recommendations of the Health Authority in France (HAS) and the new law of finance for French clinics contribute to shorter hospital stays and to restrain the conditions of admission to Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation department after TKA.Exercise and education programs conducted before TKA could help better prepare patients for surgery, improve functional outcome and accelerate functional recovery after surgery thus reducing the length of stay in orthopedic departments and facilitate return to home (directly or after a stay in PMR departments). The type of program necessary to achieve those goals remains to be defined.A systematic review of the literature associated with an analysis of practices about the relevance of rehabilitation programs before TKA, concluded that the implementation of such programs before TKA was likely to reduce the length of stay in surgery departments and improve the rate of direct return to home after surgery but that high quality trials were lacking. It also suggested that association of exercise programs with educational ones could be more effective than exercise or education alone, particularly for fragile patients with impaired functional capacity, co-morbidities and/or social problems. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
