NCT ID: NCT06454877 Not yet recruiting - Knee Prosthesis Clinical Trials

Effect of Normothermia Care Bundle in Knee Replacement Surgery

Start date: June 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Osteoarthritis is a disease characterized by disruption of the integrity of articular cartilage as a result of erosion of articular cartilage. Knee osteoarthritis causes muscle weakness, crepitation and deformities in the knee joint, limiting the individual's movement and causing loss of function. The most prominent feature is pain. Therefore, knee replacement surgery is performed in advanced cases where pharmacologic treatment is not effective. Many complications can be seen during the operation process and some of them may occur due to hypothermia. Studies have reported that warming during the operation prevents hypothermia and reduces complications. In this study, it was aimed to examine the effect of active and passive heating applied before, during and after surgery on hypothermia, surgical site infections and bleeding. The population of the study will consist of patients who underwent knee replacement surgery in the Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic of Üsküdar State Hospital between April 2024 and April 2025. Data will be collected using the patient identification form, normothermia care package observation form, preoperative follow-up form, postoperative follow-up form and postoperative long-term follow-up form. A randomization list generated from a computer-based random numbers table will be used to determine which group of patients will be included in the study. Patients will be followed up in 3 periods: preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative periods. The postoperative period will be evaluated in five stages as day 1, day 2, day 3, day 10 and day 30. The purpose of the study and the intervention to be applied will be explained to all groups to be included in the study by the researcher and written and verbal consent will be obtained from the volunteers. The groups included in the study will be subjected to the heating protocol according to the normothermia care package. Group A will receive active heating with the heating method using a hot air blowing device. Group B will receive passive heating using a reflective blanket. Group C was planned as a control group to be heated by applying the routine heating procedure of the hospital without any intervention. Body temperature and vital signs will be checked preoperatively and warming will be performed 30 minutes before surgery, and warming will be started 15 minutes before anesthesia induction during surgery and body temperature and vital signs will be checked. After the operation and in the ward, warming will be performed until the body temperature reaches 37 C°. The data obtained will be analyzed using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) for Windows 22.0 program.

NCT ID: NCT06422585 Recruiting - Pain, Procedural Clinical Trials

Comparison of Different Analgesic Nerve Blocks in Total Knee Replacement Surgery

Researchers will compare the Femoral Nerve Group+IPACK block, the Saphenous Nerve block+IPACK and the Subsartorial Block groups to see if there is any difference in the pain control in the 24 hours after the surgery.

NCT ID: NCT06367842 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Orthopaedic Specimen Pathology and Early Diagnosis of ATTR Cardiopathy (ATTR-ORTHO)

ATTR-ORTHO
Start date: February 27, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the frequency of ATTR amyloid, cardiac involvement and associated features, in 150 patients aged 50 or more years, and operated for an idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome, lumbar spine stenosis or total hip or knee arthroplasty for primary osteoarthritis. The main questions to be answered are: 1. What is the frequency of ATTR deposits in samples retrieved during surgery? 2. What is the frequency of cardiac involvement in ATTR positive patients? 3. What are the preoperative predictors of ATTR deposits? Participants will - have operative samples stained by Congo red in search of amyloid, which will be typed by immunochemistry in positive samples, - undergo a multimodal imaging search for cardiac involvement, if ATTR is identified, - undergo a preoperative complete clinical examination, including collection of medical history, ECG, biochemical tests, and imaging (ultrasound scans of rotator cuff and hip capsule in all participating patients, of the carpal tunnel in patients operated at this site, and MRI + standing profile radiography of the lumbar spine, in patients operated for lumbar stenosis) - ATTR positive patients will be proposed to be followed-up by a reference center, with the aim of an early diagnosis of cardiac involvement, allowing efficient mamagement. Researchers will assess the frequency of ATTR deposits at each operated site, the frequency or ATTR cardiopathy in ATTR + patients, and will compare demographic, clinical, biochemical, and imaging features in patients with and without ATTR deposits, to guide the indications of pathological examination during these frequent orthopedic surgeries

NCT ID: NCT06346717 Recruiting - Mobile Application Clinical Trials

Mobile Application Based Care for Total Knee Prosthesis Patients

KneeMobilApp
Start date: March 27, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Total knee prosthesis (TKP); It is a surgical treatment used in the management of functional limitations and severe pain occurring on the degenerated joint surface as a result of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, posttraumatic arthritis and other nonspecific arthritis. Nursing care is of great importance in the success of TKP surgery. Reducing pain, preventing complications, increasing self-care ability, and improving the quality of life by improving postoperative knee functions are the main goals of postoperative nursing care. In order to achieve these goals, patients and their relatives need to receive training on home care in the post-operative period before discharge. With the increasing use of mobile technologies in daily life and the increasing adoption of e-health, the opportunity for people to improve their self-management skills through e-health is increasing. Mobile Health (m-Health) provides convenience in many areas such as educating the public, warning about potential diseases and disease risks, and communicating with messages, notifications and video when necessary. It also affects the way nursing services are delivered and provides great benefits in the delivery of nursing services. For all these reasons, it was aimed to examine the effect of mobile application-supported care given to patients with total knee prosthesis on functional status and self-care ability.

NCT ID: NCT02018484 Completed - Knee Prosthesis Clinical Trials

Positioning of the Tibial Cut in Unicompartmental Medial Knee Replacement by Using Patient Specific Cutting Guides.

PSI-PUC
Start date: December 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Unicompartmental knee replacements are performed to treat osteoarthritis or osteonecrosis of the knee especially when it affects only the medial femoro-tibial compartment. To place the prosthesis, bone removal is necessary. The orientations of the bony cuts directly influence the position of the different elements of the prosthesis and the limb alignment. It is known that good positioning of the prosthesis is the key of a good survival of the implants. To guide the blade of the saw, cutting guides are used. The position of these guides gives the final position of the cuts. At present, two main techniques are used to position the guides: the conventional one, not very costly but not very accurate, and the navigated procedure, which is more accurate but also more expensive and more invasive. Since few years, patient specific cutting guides are used in total knee replacement with encouraging results and more recently in uni compartmental knee replacement with no scientific proof of efficiency. This study aims to validate the procedure of patient specific cutting guides.
