Patients with degenerative joint disease can effectively be treated with a primary total knee replacement to reduce pain and improve function in their daily lives. Theoretically, achievement of normal knee motion using a medial pivot design in total knee replacements can be recreated in comparison to single radius designs, which could lead to an improvement in post-surgical outcomes and satisfaction with the procedure. The aim of this study is to compare two types of implant designs (medial pivot and single radius) in a total knee replacement using clinical outcomes, patient reported outcomes, and overall function assessed by a specialized gait laboratory.
The authors designed a randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical trial after the ethical approval by the University Ethics Committee. The patients with temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA) randomly assigned one of the two treatment groups: intra-articular injection of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) after arthrocentesis procedure as i-PRF group and arthrocentesis procedure alone as control group. The primary outcome variable was pain levels at preoperatively, and postoperatively at 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th and 12th month. The secondary outcome variables included maximum mouth opening (MMO), lateral and protrusive movements.
The purpose of this study is to measure the change in pain and function with subcutaneous injections of pentosan polysulfate sodium (PPS) compared with subcutaneous injections of placebo in participants with knee osteoarthritis pain. Study details include: - The study duration will be up to 31 weeks per participant - The treatment duration will be 6 weeks. - The visit frequency will be twice weekly during treatment. - The visit frequency will be every 4 weeks during the follow-up period.
The aim of our study is to determine the effects of intra-articular Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) prepared with two different techniques on pain intensity, functional status, quality of life, functional balance and femoral cartilage thickness in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee constitutes a major public health problem. Treatment options for knee OA range from lifestyle changes to pharmacological management to total knee replacement surgery. As a "preference-sensitive" condition, management of OA of the knee is ideally suited for shared decision making (SDM), taking into consideration benefits, risks, and patients' health status, values, and goals. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) reflect health status from the patient's perspective. For knee OA, relevant PROs include pain and other symptoms, functional status and limitations, and overall health. Prior research indicates that patients with higher baseline physical function and/or poor baseline mental health do not benefit as much from total knee replacement. Still, due to logistical challenges, costs, and disruptions in workflow, PROs have not yet achieved their full potential in clinical care. Musculoskeletal providers at Dell Medical School and UT Health Austin currently collect general and condition-specific PROs from every patient seen in their Musculoskeletal Institute. PROs are collected via an electronic interface and results are pulled into the Athena electronic health record (EHR). Given the promise of combining PRO data with clinical and demographic data, musculoskeletal providers at UT Health Austin have begun utilizing an innovative electronic PRO-based predictive analytic tool at the point of care to guide SDM in patients with knee OA. This project plans to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and impact of the PRO-guided predictive analytic SDM tool and process in a randomized controlled trial in Austin. Outcomes will include decision quality, as reported by patients; treatment decision (surgical vs. non-surgical); and decisional conflict and regret. Our project contributes to AHRQ's strategy to use health IT to improve quality and outcomes by evaluating a tool and process for the use of PRO data at the point of care. The model being tested puts patients at the center of their care by enabling them to participate in informed decision making by using their personal health data, preferences, and prognostic models. Knowledge gained will be critical to scaling and spreading use of this PRO-guided SDM tool among patients with knee OA nationally.
This is a single-site, two-arm, parallel-group randomized clinical trial (RCT). The feasibility, acceptability, and clinical effects of the nurse-led, very brief, preoperative mindfulness based intervention for hip and knee replacement patients will be investigated relative to nurse-led preoperative pain psychoeducation. A secondary sub-analysis will compare two different styles of mindfulness practice (mindfulness of breath vs. mindfulness of pain) relative to preoperative pain psychoeducation.
This is a prospective study to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of CORI and to register CORI in China mainland.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a functional disease with joint degeneration with subchondral and periosteal lesions. Coxarthrosis (or hip osteoarthritis) is an important cause of disability, especially in the advanced age group.Although hip osteoarthritis is often thought to be a non-inflammatory pathology, recent studies have shown that joint degeneration is correlated with the production of inflammatory factors and cartilage destroying enzymes. There are very few studies evaluating the correlation of Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio, monocyte lymphocyte ratio and Platelet lymphocyte ratio with inflammatory parameters CRP and ESR levels in hip osteoarthritis and its relation with the staging of hip osteoatritis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of melatonin supplementation on patient sleep quality, length of stay, and opioid consumption following primary, unilateral, elective total hip or knee arthroplasty.
