Filter by:Total knee arthroplasty(TKA) is a successful orthopedic surgery with excellent clinical outcome and survival. However, there are concerns about patient satisfaction in previous reports, and dissatisfaction rate of 15-30% is reported in clinical outcomes(PROMs) of some studies. Therefore, for improving the patient's outcome and satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty, it is necessary to change the design of the conventional total knee arthroplsaty implant. The knee is a joint structure with several dynamic functions, and not only the skeletal structure but also the soft tissue balance plays an important role in the function of the knee joint. New implants are being developed to overcome the limitations of conventional TKA implant, including the Journey II Bi-cruciate substituting total knee system (JII-BCS; Smith & Nephew). JII-BCS implant has normal articular geometry, more anatomical femoral shape, lateral tibial convex geometry, and asymmetrical tibial plateau, anterior and posterior cams, which has been shown in experimental studies to produce nearly normal knee movement by reproducing the actual normal anatomical alignment in vivo. The clinical results of the kinematic effects of this anatomcally aligned change are insufficient, and there is also a lack of comparative studies with conventional total knee arthroplasty implant. The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes between anatomically aligned TKA(JII-BCS) and conventional TKA(Legion total knee system, Smith & Nephew). This study is a randomized controlled study in patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty. A patient will undergo unilateral TKA with anatomically aligned or conventional TKA implant. The implant is determined using a random number table. Radiologic parameter, patients preference and clinical results was investigated in patients who received unilateral TKA during minimum 2 year follow up.

This study is a randomized controlled study in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty per day. Radiologic parameter, patients preference and clinical results was investigated in both knee of same patients who received TKA during minimum 2 year follow up.
This is a multi-centered prospective, consecutively enrolled study that will be conducted in the United States. Surgeons that are new users of the iTotal Knee system (defined by no experience using the customized Total Knee Replacement (TKR) in the last 6 months) will be involved in the study. To complete the study protocol, the center will collect baseline surgical and training data on 10 "off-the-shelf" TKR patients using the implant system the surgeon currently uses. Then the first 50 consecutive patients who have been identified to receive the iTotal implant (Cruciate-Retaining or Posterior-Stabilizing) based on patient factors and the implant system IFU will be enrolled in the study. Simultaneous bilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty cases will be excluded.
This is a multi-centre, prospective, open-label, uncontrolled, clinical investigation followed by an open-label extension clinical investigation to evaluate PAAG-OA in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Patients with primary knee osteoarthritis will be included in the study, plain X-ray for the affected knee, followed by musculoskeletal ultrasound assessment will be done. The intervention: intra-articular injection and extra-articular injections of 25% dextrose. Follow up will be done at 24 weeks after the last injection both clinically and ultrasonographically . Aim: Determine whether prolotherapy improves pain. stiffness and function of symptomatic knee osteoarthritis and determine ultrasonographic changes before and after prolotherapy.
The aim of this study is to determine if vitamin D supplementation is associated with differences in short-term recovery in patients following total knee arthroplasty compared to patients who do not receive supplementation. If so, vitamin D supplementation has the potential to become widely incorporated into the routine care for patients undergoing knee replacements.
The purpose of the present study is to determine if prebiotic supplementation can, through changes in the intestinal gut microbiota, lead to improvements in knee function and physical performance and reduce knee pain in adults with obesity and idiopathic metabolic knee osteoarthritis. We hypothesize that prebiotics will reduce systemic and local (knee joint) inflammation, thus improving knee function, lower pain medication use, and enhance performance of daily life activities.
Introduction: Hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA) was ranked in 2010 as the eleventh highest contributor to global disability. In France in 2014, non-spinal OA was the leading self-reported cause of morbidity among adults over sixty-five years of age, with a prevalence of 49.5 per cent. OA is known to be the first cause of disability in activities of daily life and a risk factor of frailty among people over seventy-five years of age. Despite its major impact on the elderly population's quality of life and health, quality of care for OA in elderly patients remains understudied. Objective: The study aims to assess the quality of care for knee and hip OA in patients aged 75 years and over.
Given the lack of studies in the literature associating the use of acupuncture and sliding suction cup in patients with advanced knee osteoarthritis, the objective of this study is to evaluate the benefits of this association in patients of the Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology outpatient clinic of the University of São Paulo while awaiting surgical treatment of knee osteoarthritis as a method of pain relief, limb function improvement and quality of life.
Using double-blind, randomized controlled design to compare the immediate, short-term and intermediate-term additional therapeutic effects of ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection and dextrose injection of hyaluronic acid injection on patients with knee osteoarthritis, under the basis of International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health.
