Filter by:Total knee replacement is used in the treatment of patients with knee arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other knee disorders. Today, there are basically two designs; It cuts the posterior cruciate ligament (PS) and protects the posterior cruciate ligament (CR). Although there is no clear study suggesting which design is better, research on this subject has increased recently. the investigators aim is to define the superiority of these two designs over each other. Preoperative and postoperative joint range of motion examinations were performed on both knees separately. WOMAC and OXFORD scores were examined separately for both knees.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the incidence of dislodgement for adductor canal catheters after total knee arthroplasty on post-operative day 1. We will also attempt to identify factors associated with secondary catheter failure.
The cementless ATTUNETM Rotating Platform Knee system was compared in a single-blind, randomized RSA trial to its predecessor, the LCS rotating platform Knee System. In this previous study, 61 knees were subjected to RSA examinations at 1-day and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months postoperative. This study found a promising equal migration of both tibial components and a lesser migration of the femoral component of the ATTUNETM knee system after two years, although with a similar migration rate between year 1 and 2. this raises the question of whether the migration of the prostheses relative to each other will increase or remain the same in the long term. To examine this, a mid-and long-term RSA follow-up to measure migration is necessary. In addition, another new RSA measurement parameter has become known in recent years that may provide an indication of the bonding of the prosthesis to the bone at the time of measurement. This new parameter, called the Induced Displacement (ID) of a prosthesis, measures the position and orientation relative to the bone while the prosthesis is under different loading conditions (e.g., patient in supine or standing position). This means that a large measured difference between these different loading condition measurements would indicate that osseointegration of the prosthesis never occurred or is no longer present. To improve the understanding of the tendency of both prostheses to aseptic loosening after a mid- to long-term follow up, migration over time and inducible displacement analyses are necessary. The primary objective of this study is to accurately compare mid- and long-term migration of two uncemented TKR prostheses. The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate if inducible displacement can be used as a parameter to detect loose implants, and to compare inducible displacement, clinical and radiological outcome and patient-reported outcomes (PROMS) after a follow-up of 5 and 10 years of two uncemented TKR prostheses.
To evaluate the effects of early oral carbohydrates after TKA on nutritional status, comfort and safety in elderly patients.
Phase Ⅱ, randomized, double-blind, comparator-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of single injection adductor canal block with HR18034 for postoperative pain management compared with ropivacaine.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with the sacrifice of the anterior cruciate ligament is the standard treatment for severe knee osteoarthritis. A number of studies on the kinematics of the prosthetic knee tend to show that implants that preserve the cruciate ligaments best reproduce the kinematics of the healthy knee. The goal is to compare the clinical and radiological results in patients undergoing total knee replacement surgery according to the type of prosthesis used. It is anticipated that the bicruciate-retaining prosthesis will result in better function of the operated knee than the posterior-stabilized prosthesis. Method: - Randomized controlled trial - Monocentric - Randomization will be done using sealed envelopes
The aim of this study is to assess the long-term performance and safety of HLS KneeTec Deep Dish knee prosthesis when used in standard medical practice
The aim of this study is to assess the long-term performance and safety of HLS KneeTec cementless and hybrid fixation knee prosthesis when used in standard medical practice.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is currently the international standard for the treatment of degenerative and rheumatological diseases of the knee joint, as well as certain types of fractures. Although TKA is a procedure that has been shown to be effective in relieving pain and improving function in patients with osteoarthritis, approximately 20% of patients are dissatisfied with the results. Traditional methods of assessing the outcome after joint arthroplasty often focus on objective indicators of surgery and neglect the needs and opinions of patients. Because of this, this research project has the aim to know the effectiveness of two models of stabilization of total knee prostheses on the functionality achieved and perceived by the patient, as well as in the knee joint biomechanics during movement in activities of daily life. On the other hand, as a secondary objective, we propose to determine prognostic biomarkers of knee prosthesis function based on radiological information, quantification of cytokines, intra-articular markers, and biomechanical functional evaluation that correlate and predict a correct evolution of patients with a knee replacement. To carry out these objectives, 80 participants will be included with an indication to perform total knee joint replacement surgery. Participants will be randomized allocated into two groups: i. participants with a prosthesis with medial condylar stabilization ii. participants with a traditional prosthesis with central pivot stabilization. Participants will be evaluated at five-times: before surgery, immediate postsurgical, at 3 months of evolution, 6 months of evolution, and one year of evolution.
Chronic pain is an extremely disabling disease. It is a major public health problem due to the lack of effective therapy. Chronic postoperative pain (CPOP) is defined by a painful symptomatology in the operated area unrelated to previous pain, present for more than 3 months, and without any link to surgical complication. The prevalence of chronicization of postoperative pain is 30% after total knee arthroplasty. Identification of clinical, biological and psychological profiles are crucial to prevent CPOP. A biologic factor, Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) produced by a variety of cells is a key regulator of neuroplasticity. BDNF is increasingly studied in the mechanisms of cerebral sensitization and pain chronicization. The role of BDNF in pain of patients remains to be explored in a prospective study. The aim of this observational study is to compare the kinetics of BDNF after total knee arthroplasty in patients with and without CPOP. Patients will be included in the study at the preanesthetic consultation. Serum BDNF levels will be measured preoperatively, 48h postoperatively, 3 and 6 months after surgery.
