View clinical trials related to Bilateral Knee Osteoarthritis.
Filter by:Total knee arthroplasty is a well-known treatment of the end-stage osteoarthritis of the knee. In the case of bilateral end-stage knee osteoarthritis, both of the knees need total knee arthroplasty. Bilateral total knee arthroplasty could be performed simultaneously or staged according to the preference of the patients. Simultaneous total knee arthroplasty is defined as the replacement of both knees in a single surgery. The major advantage of simultaneous total knee arthroplasty this surgery is that it requires only one hospital stay and a rehabilitation period to recover both knees, but higher blood transfusion rates and thromboembolism risk are still major concerns. Therefore, in this comparative study, smart-phone based gait analysis and patient-reported functional outcomes are evaluated in patients undergoing simultaneous and staged total knee arthroplasty, at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively
The purpose of the study is to assess the radiological and clinical outcomes comparing two different treatments (Filtered Autologous Adipose Tissue versus Placebo) in patients affecting bilateral knee osteoarthritis. After be randomized, every patient will be treated in both legs, one leg with Adipose Tissue and the other one with Placebo.
