Filter by:Tourniquet use during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) improves visibility and reduces intraoperative blood loss. However, tourniquet use may also have a negative impact on early recovery of muscle strength and lower extremity function after TKA.Seventy Patients are involved in this study and were divided into two groups; Group A (35) patients were treated with TKA with pneumatic thigh tourniquet. Group B (35) patients were treated with TKA without tourniquet. All patients were suffering from severe knee osteoarthritis and they failed to respond to conservative treatment so they are candidates for primary TKA. The two groups are matched related to age and gender. Selection of patients into two groups done randomly with regard of odd number for group A and even number for group B
In vivo knee kinematics will be assessed for 20 subjects that have been implanted with a Total Joint Orthopedics Klassic knee system by Dr. Aaron Hofmann of the Hofmann Arthritis Institute's Center for Precision Joint Replacement. This is the location from which all participants will be recruited and where fluoroscopy data collection will occur. Participants will undergo fluoroscopic surveillance of their implanted knee using a C-arm fluoroscopic unit while performing a deep knee bend activity at least six months post-operatively.
In vivo knee kinematics will be assessed for 20 subjects that have been implanted with either a MicroPort Medial Pivot or DePuy Attune posterior cruciate retaining (PCR) total knee arthroplasty (TKA) by Dr. Russell Nevins of Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center [this is the location from which participants will be recruited].
This is a randomized prospective study of 60 patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty evaluating the clinical outcomes of liposomal bupivacaine periarticular injections (PAI) when compared to single shot adductor canal block using bupivacaine HCl.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how different pre-operative therapeutic approaches affect quad strength and patient satisfaction after total knee replacements. There are three treatments groups: standard physical therapy protocol, the use of CyMedica NMES garments, and a telemedical home therapy program.
This study compares the tow technique of continues adductor canal block for total knee replacement surgery. Half participants will receive catheterization at the entrance of the adductor canal, while the other half will receive catheterization at the middle point of the adductor canal.
Background and study aims Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of arthritis, which most often affects the knee. It occurs when the protective cartilage on the end of bones wears away. The bones then rub against one another, which can cause stiffness, pain and a reduction in a person's range of movement. A knee joint replacement is a common procedure where the weight bearing surfaces of the knee joint are replaced with metal and plastic components to relieve the pain and disability brought on by OA. Tranexamic Acid（TXA） is a traditional method to reduce blood loss, pain score and complications. It is not known however, what is the best method of TXA for the patients with TKA. The aim of this study is to find out whetherVisual Field Infiltration of Tranexamic Acid Reduced the Blood Loss in patients who have had knee replacement surgery.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectivity of adductor canal block performed the day after total knee arthroplasty surgery in reducing pain and improving walking ambulation ability and muscle strength.
The investigators will investigate the efficacy of using CR and PS implants in TKA. The investigators will conduct TKA with different implants simultaneously on one patient to compare the post-operation efficacy of both implants.
Total knee arthroplasty is performed in patients with advanced stages of osteoarthritis who can not respond to conservative treatment, in order to reduce pain, increase range of motion, and improve function and quality of life. Continuous passive motion device continues to be used in many clinics, although it has been shown that there is no effect in total knee arthroplasty rehabilitation. The aim of the study was to assess the clinical effects of the knee exercise device on pain, ROM and function and quality of life in total knee arthroplasty rehabilitation.
