Filter by:This single blinded randomized controlled study evaluates the effect of developed First Mobilization Protocol applied to knee arthroplasty patients on state anxiety, kinesiophobia, initial mobilization related symptoms.
The purpose is to examine the effects of an online physical activity program on moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity, pain, and physical function in adults with knee replacement at 3 months (post-intervention) and 6 months (maintenance).
RCT comparing UC and PS TKA
This is a randomized study comparing the measured resection and gap-balancing surgical techniques for total knee replacement (TKR) using a cemented Journey II TKR implant system. We will be comparing the two surgical methods by evaluating implant migration using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) imaging, evaluating contact kinematics (knee mechanics) through RSA under dynamic conditions and comparing patient knee outcome scores.
Functional results with Attune Fixed Bearing Posterior Stabilized total knee arthroplasty evaluated with KOOS. A prospective longitudinal cohort study with repetitive measurements 6 weeks, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months postoperative.
The purpose of this study is to document and compare the surgical and after surgery costs, recovery time, and outcomes of two procedure types: - Robotic assisted surgery replacing one compartment of the knee - Manual (robot is not used) surgery replacing all three compartments of the knee (total knee replacement) The hypothesis is that robot assisted partial knee replacement is cost effective and provides clinical outcomes that are equivalent to a manual total knee replacement.
Total joint replacements are some of the most successful medical devices developed over the last fifty years. They enable millions of people to remain ambulatory and pain free, with minimal risk. In 2002, over 200,000 total hip replacements, 350,000 total knee replacements, and 25,000 total or partial shoulder replacements were performed in the United States (HCUP data). Future use will likely be even higher: it is estimated that by the year 2020, the population 65 and over in developed countries will increase by 71%. Existing studies do not provide adequate prospective data to evaluate long-term outcomes. Most health related quality of life studies in THA and TKA only report data up to twelve months post-operatively. In addition, most large studies of TKA and THA have been performed in Medicare patients. While these databases are important in providing population based data, Medicare studies do not permit any direct patient contact, and provide no information on patients under 65. Existing studies have also investigated predictors of patient outcome at one and two years after joint arthroplasty. However, very little is known about predictors of prosthesis failure, and there are no validated clinical indicators for choosing one prosthesis model over another. Once a device is FDA approved, there is very little motivation on the part of the developer to perform complete post-marketing research, despite the importance of these data to the public health. Most existent studies are not powered to compare differences between models. The purpose of this study is to establish a prospective cohort of HSS total knee arthroplasty.
