Background

Patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) are often advised to avoid driving for 6 weeks postoperation. This is based on patients having to maintain postoperative hip precautions and studies investigating brake reaction time (BRT) following THA using conventional techniques. The aim of this study was to assess patients' ability to drive in the early postoperative period following microinvasive THA by assessing BRT.

Methods

Hundred consecutive patients undergoing SuperPATH® THA in 2015 who drove automobiles preoperatively were included in this prospective cohort study. BRT was measured preoperatively and at day 1 or 2 postoperation using a driving simulator. A subset of 25 consecutive patients had repeat BRT testing at 2 weeks postoperation. Five BRT measures were taken at each time point. Differences in the patient's mean and best BRT at each time point were assessed using the paired t-test.

Results

The study cohort included 50 men and 50 women with mean age 63 years (range 25-86). The mean preoperative BRT was 0.63 s (range 0.43-1.44), with a mean difference of ?0.1 s (range ?0.57 to 0.33, P < .0001) at day 1 or 2 postoperation. The 2-week mean and best BRTs were also better than paired preoperative readings with a mean improvement of 0.15 s (range ?0.78 to ?0.004, P < .0001).

Conclusion

BRT reaches preoperative values by day 2 following microinvasive THA. Patients may be suitable to drive earlier than the previously recommended 6 weeks postoperation.  相似文献

Background

The comparative effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), and electroacupuncture (EA) for improving patient rehabilitation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is controversial. Therefore we conducted this systematic review to assess the available evidence.

Methods

The PubMed, OVID, and ScienceDirect databases were comprehensively searched and studies were selected and analyzed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations. Data were extracted and qualitatively synthesized for several outcomes.

Results

Data were analyzed from 17 randomized controlled trials involving 1285 procedures: 8 NMES studies (608 procedures), 7 TENS studies (560 procedures), and 2 EA studies (117 procedures). Qualitative analysis suggested that NMES was associated with higher quadriceps strength and functional recovery after TKA. Recovery benefits were maximal when the stimulation was performed once or twice a day for 4-6 weeks at an intensity of 100-120 mA and frequency of 30-100 Hz. The electrode should be sufficiently large (100-200 cm2) to reduce discomfort. TENS at an intensity of 15-40 mA and frequency of 70-150 Hz provided effective analgesia after TKA. EA at an intensity of 2 mA and frequency of 2 Hz may also provide postoperative analgesia of TKA.

Conclusion

As adjunct modalities, NMES and TENS can effectively improve rehabilitation after TKA without triggering significant intolerance, and maximal benefits depend on optimized parameters and intervention protocols. EA may be an effective adjunct modality for analgesia after TKA.  相似文献

Background

Recurrent hemarthrosis is a late complication in up to 1.6% of patients following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In the absence of intrinsic coagulopathy, one etiology is bleeding of hypertrophic vascular synovium. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcome of patients referred to our center for angiographic embolization of geniculate arteries for recurrent hemarthrosis following TKA.

Methods

We retrospectively studied a cohort of patients who were referred for geniculate artery embolization following TKA between August 2011 and September 2016.

Results

A total of 24 embolization procedures were performed on 14 patients. Seven (50%) of these 14 patients underwent one embolization procedure. Due to symptom recurrence, 4 patients underwent a repeated procedure and 3 patients a third procedure. All embolization procedures were technically successful at the time of the procedure. Two patients reported an inguinal hematoma that healed without further treatment. At follow-up of mean 26.8 months, clinical success was achieved in 12 of the 14 patients (86%).

Conclusion

Embolization of the geniculate arteries in our study was a safe and effective treatment of recurrent spontaneous hemarthrosis following TKA. Although we have performed a substantial number of reinterventions, results of this study show that this procedure can be safely repeated without adverse events. Our results indicate that embolization could possibly be the treatment of choice when conservative measures fail and can be repeated in the event of recurrent or persistent symptoms.  相似文献

Background

Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may be at risk for prolonged postsurgical opioid use due to a high prevalence of persistent postsurgical pain (20%) and high rates of presurgical opioid use.

Methods

The current study uses a Veterans Health Administration sample of 6653 Veterans who underwent TKA in the fiscal year 2014 that did not require surgical revision during the subsequent year.

Results

Sixty percent of the sample had used an opioid in the year prior to surgery, including 20% who were on long-term opioid use at the time of surgery (defined as 90+ days of continuous use) and 40% with any other opioid use in the year prior to surgery. In patients on long-term opioids at the time of surgery, 69% received opioids for at least 6 months and 57% for at least 12 months after TKA. In patients not on long-term opioids at the time of TKA, only 4% received opioids for at least 6 months and 2% for at least 12 months after TKA. Differing risk factors for prolonged opioid use 12 months after TKA were identified in these 2 cohorts (ie, those who were and were not receiving long-term opioids at TKA).

Conclusion

These findings suggest that the greatest risk for prolonged opioid use after TKA is preoperative opioid use.  相似文献

Background

Considerable blood loss which requires transfusion is frequently reported after total hip and knee arthroplasties (THA and TKA). The purpose of this study is to review the transfusion rates in contemporary THA and TKA with optimized perioperative protocols including minimized surgical trauma and optimal perioperative patient care.

Methods

This retrospective study included 1442 consecutive patients receiving either a primary THA or a TKA from the same high-volume surgeon between January 2008 and December 2015. Demographics and surgical data were collected from patients' journals. Estimated blood loss, decline in hemoglobin, and use of transfusion were registered.

Results

One (0.0013%) THA and 3 (0.0044%) TKAs required blood transfusion postoperatively. Average measured bleeding was 253 mL ± 142 and 207 mL ± 169 in THA and TKA, respectively. Average decline in hemoglobin was 23.5 g/L ± 11.4 and 22.9 g/L ± 11.6 for THA and TKA, respectively.

Conclusion

In contemporary THA and TKA, perioperative protocols and patient optimization can decrease the rate of blood transfusion to near zero.  相似文献

Background

Previous knee injury requiring surgical intervention increases the rate of future arthroplasty. Coding modifiers for removal of previous hardware or increased complexity offer inconsistent results. A Current Procedural Terminology code for knee conversion does not currently exist as it does for conversion hip arthroplasty. We investigate the extra time associated with conversion knee arthroplasty.

Methods

Sixty-three total knee arthroplasty (TKA) cases in the setting of previous knee hardware were identified from our institution between 2008 and 2015. Knee conversions were matched to primary TKA by age, gender, body mass index, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and surgeon, in a 3:1 ratio. Patients who underwent knee conversions were compared to matched TKA with regard to operative time, length of stay, discharge destination, readmission, and repeat procedures within 90 days from index procedure.

Results

The mean operating room time for primary TKA was 71.7 minutes (range 36-138). The mean operating room time for knee conversion was significantly greater by an additional 31 minutes; mean 102.1 minutes (range 56-256 minutes, P < .0001). Rates of readmission, 0.5% vs 3.2%, and repeat procedures, 5.3% vs 12.7%, within 90 days were greater for knee conversions. There was no difference in length of stay or discharge destination.

Conclusion

Total knee conversion results in a 43% increase in operative time and more than twice the rate of readmission and repeat procedures within 90 days compared to TKA. This suggests the need for an additional Current Procedural Terminology code for knee conversion arthroplasty to compensate surgeons for the extra time required for conversions.  相似文献

Background

Before total knee arthroplasty (TKA), males walk with biomechanics that are distinct from females. It is not known whether these sex-specific profiles are maintained after TKA and whether any differences reflect those typical of unimpaired males and females. The aim of this study was to compare knee biomechanics of males and females with TKA with unimpaired controls during walking.

Methods

Eighty-five participants (44 females and 41 males) who were at least 12 months after unilateral TKA and 39 matched control participants (21 females and 18 males) were included in this observational cohort study. All participants were assessed with 3-dimensional motion analysis during comfortable speed walking.

Results

All key biomechanics parameters during walking were significantly different between males with TKA and male controls (P < .01). There were no differences in the same parameters between females with TKA and female controls.

Conclusion

Sex-specific biomechanics profiles are maintained after TKA. Biomechanics of females with TKA were closer to normal than males, suggesting that previous studies that investigate a mixed-sex cohort may have underestimated biomechanics outcome from TKA for females. Future studies should consider evaluating outcome from TKA independently for males and females.  相似文献

Background

Irrigation and debridement (I&D) is performed for early management of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Symptom reporting is a subjective measure and may miss direct management of PJI. Utilizing an objective time interval from index procedure to I&D may better inform treatment decisions.

Methods

From 2009 to 2017, retrospective review was performed of 55 knee PJI cases at our institution. All patients underwent polyethylene liner exchange and I&D for PJI. Patients were stratified by time from index procedure to I&D (≤2 weeks, >2 weeks). Success was defined as eradication of infection and resolution of presenting symptoms. Failed cases required subsequent procedures due to infection.

Results

Average follow-up time after index TKA was 2.5 years. Among patients with I&D within 2 weeks of index TXA, 14 patients (82%) were successfully treated while 3 (18%) had infection recurrence. These outcomes were significantly improved compared to patients with I&D after 2 weeks: 19 (50%) successes and 19 (50%) failures (P = .024). Staphylococcal species were the most frequent pathogen in patients treated before and after 2 weeks of index TKA (39% and 50%, respectively). Outcomes were pathogen-independent in PJIs treated before or after 2 weeks of index TKA (P = .206 and .594, respectively).

Conclusion

Our results demonstrate that patients with early PJI managed with I&D and liner exchange within 2 weeks of index TKA had higher rates of treatment success when compared to those with I&D beyond 2 weeks. These findings suggest that time from index TKA to I&D is an objective and reliable indicator of treatment success when considering I&D in acute onset knee PJI.  相似文献

Background

No previous studies have investigated the risk of infection following intra-articular corticosteroid injection (IACI) into a pre-existing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of this study is to determine the risk of acute infection following IACI into a pre-existing TKA.

Methods

A retrospective chart review identified all patients at a single institution between October 2009 and May 2015 that had an ipsilateral knee injection subsequent to a TKA. The risk of acute infection, as defined by development of an infection within 3 months of IACI, was determined via review of clinic notes, operative reports, laboratory records, and telephone interviews.

Results

A total of 1845 injections in 736 patients met the inclusion criteria. In total, 101 (4.8%) patients were lost to follow-up. Three infections in 3 patients occurred within 3 months of IACI, yielding an infection rate of 0.16% per injection, or 1 infection in every 625 IACIs following TKA.

Conclusion

This study is the first to investigate the risk of acute infection following injection of corticosteroid into a pre-existing TKA. Given the dire consequences of infection following TKA, the routine use of IACI into a pre-existing TKA should be avoided, and a thorough workup should be performed in any patient with a painful TKA prior to consideration of IACI.  相似文献

Background

Patellofemoral complications are one of the main problems after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The design of the TKA component may affect the patellar biomechanics, which may be associated with this postoperative complication. The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of TKA and prosthesis designs on the patellar kinematics and patellofemoral pressure.

Methods

Using fresh-frozen cadavers, we measured the patellofemoral pressure, patella offset, and patella tilt in the following 4 conditions: normal knee (patella replacement only), cruciate-retaining TKA, condylar-stabilizing TKA, and posterior-stabilized TKA.

Results

The patellofemoral pressure increased significantly after the cruciate-retaining TKA and condylar-stabilizing TKA compared with the normal knee. The patella offset in the normal knee decreased with increasing knee flexion angles, while the patella offset in the TKA knees did not change significantly through the full range of motion. The amount of lateral patella tilt in the normal knee was significantly larger than the TKA knees in the full range of motion.

Conclusion

Although the femoral components are designed to reproduce an anatomical patellar tracking, the physiological patellar kinematics were not observed. Relatively high patellofemoral pressure and kinematic change after TKA may be associated with postoperative complications such as the anterior knee pain.  相似文献

Background

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a devastating complication. The short-term morbidity profile of revision TKA performed for PJI relative to non-PJI revisions is poorly characterized. The purpose of this study is to determine 30-day postoperative outcomes after revision TKA for PJI, relative to primary TKA and aseptic revision TKA.

Methods

The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program from 2005 to 2015 was queried for primary and revision TKA cases. Revision TKA cases were categorized into PJI and non-PJI cohorts. Differences in 30-day outcomes including postoperative complications, readmissions, operative time, and length of stay were compared using bivariate and multivariate analyses.

Results

In total, 175,761 TKAs were included in this study, with 162,981 (92.7%) primary TKAs and 12,780 (7.3%) revision TKAs, of which 2196 (17.2%) revisions were performed for PJI. When compared to aseptic revision TKA, multivariate analysis demonstrated that PJI revisions had a significantly higher risk of major early postoperative complications including death (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 3.25) and sepsis (OR 8.73). In addition, nonhome discharge (OR 1.75), readmissions (OR 1.67), and length of stay (+2.1 days) were all greater relative to non-PJI revisions.

Conclusion

Utilizing a large, prospectively collected, national database, we found that revision TKA for PJI has a greater risk of short-term morbidity and mortality and requires a higher utilization of healthcare resources. These results have implications for patient counseling and alternative payment models that may eventually include revision TKA.  相似文献

Background

The ideal fixation for modern tibial components in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial with uncertainty on whether cementless implants can yield equivalent outcomes to cemented fixation in early follow-up.

Methods

A series of 70 consecutive cases with reverse hybrid cementless fixation were matched to 70 cemented cases from 2008 to 2015 based on implant design and patient demographics.

Results

Cementless TKA demonstrated greater aseptic loosening (7 vs 0, P = .013) and revision surgery (10 vs 0, P = .001) than cemented fixation within 5 years of follow-up, but with no clinically significant differences in outcome scores.

Conclusion

It remains unclear whether early aseptic loosening in cementless TKA can be reduced with enhanced adjunct fixation and what proportion of early failure justifies the potential lifelong fixation through biologic ingrowth of cementless tibial components.  相似文献

Background

Dissatisfaction following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is common. Approximately 20% of patients report dissatisfaction following primary TKA. This systematic literature review explores key factors affecting patient dissatisfaction following TKA.

Methods

Six literature databases published between 2005 and 1 January 2016 were searched using 3 key search phrases. Papers were included if the study investigated patient dissatisfaction in primary unilateral or bilateral TKA. Information from each article was categorized to the domains of socioeconomic, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative factors affecting patient dissatisfaction.

Results

This review found that patient dissatisfaction pertains to several key factors. Patient expectations prior to surgery, the degree of improvement in knee function, and pain relief following surgery were commonly cited in the literature. Fewer associations were found in the socioeconomic and surgical domains.

Conclusion

Identifying who may be dissatisfied after their TKA is mystifying; however, we note several strategies that target factors whereby an association exists. Further research is needed to better quantify dissatisfaction, so that the causal links underpinning dissatisfaction can be more fully appreciated and strategies employed to target them.  相似文献

Introduction

The technical objective of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is to restore normal mechanical parameters to the knee. Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) was developed to streamline the operative process and improve accuracy. PSI produces individualized cutting guides based on three-dimensional models of the patient's anatomy acquired from computed-tomography (CT) or magnetic-resonance imaging (MRI). However, the superiority of one modality over the other remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to compare the accuracy of patient-specific cutting guides produced from MRI or CT imaging methods in TKA.

Methods

Electronic databases were systematically searched using relevant keywords and MeSH terms for original-data English-language publications comparing the accuracy of CT and MRI-based PSI cutting guides in TKA. Data was extracted from the text, tables and figures of studies and meta-analysed.

Results

MRI-based PSI cutting guides produced a lower proportion of coronal plane outliers (>3°) with regard to overall limb mechanical axis (OR 2.75, p = 0.01). There were no significant differences between the two in terms of sagittal femoral and tibial component placement, or coronal femoral and tibial placement, or femoral component axial rotation. Tibial rotation was not analysed in the literature.

Conclusions

MRI-based patient-specific cutting guides produced a lower proportion of outliers in the overall coronal alignment of the limb compared to CT, with no significant difference between the two in terms of femoral or tibial component placement. Future studies should investigate the differences in resource usage and operative time between the two to inform surgeons' decision making when choosing an ideal imaging modality for PSI TKA.

Background

Although multimodal pain management including periarticular multidrug injection can provide excellent pain relief in the early postoperative period after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), rebounding pain remains an important challenge. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed to investigate the efficacy of adding intravenous acetaminophen to multimodal pain management for TKA.

Methods

We enrolled 67 patients scheduled for unilateral TKA. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either 1000 mg of intravenous acetaminophen at 6-hour intervals or normal saline at the same intervals. All patients were treated with intraoperative periarticular multidrug injection and intravenous and oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The primary outcome was the postoperative 100-mm visual analog pain scale at the time of administration of study drugs.

Results

In the intention-to-treat analysis, the pain score was significantly better in the intravenous acetaminophen group than the placebo group at 17:00 one day after TKA (15.3 ± 17.0 mm vs 26.8 ± 19.0 mm; P = .013). There were no significant differences in terms of the rate of complications between groups.

Conclusion

Even in the setting of multimodal pain management including periarticular multidrug injection, intravenous acetaminophen provided better pain relief for patients undergoing unilateral TKA.  相似文献

Background

When new technologies are introduced, it is important to evaluate the rate of adoption and outcomes compared with preexisting technology. The purpose of this study was to determine the adoption rate of computer-assisted navigation in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), to determine if the short-term complication rate changed over time with navigation, and to compare short-term complication rates of navigated and traditional TKA.

Methods

The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was used to identify 108,277 patients undergoing primary TKA between 2010 and 2014, of which 3573 cases (3.30%) were navigated. Rates of adoption of navigated TKA were determined. Differences in short-term complications by year were compared using propensity score matching.

Results

Navigation utilization decreased from 4.96% in 2010 to 3.06% in 2014. Blood transfusion rates for the entire cohort decreased from 19% in 2011 to 6% in 2014, and was not decreased with navigation compared with traditional TKA in 2014 (P = .1309). Operative time was not increased by navigation, and average 94.2 minutes. There were no significant differences in all-cause complications, reoperation rate, unplanned readmission, or length of stay for any year.

Conclusions

There was a 38.3% decrease in TKA navigation utilization from 2010-2014. Blood transfusion rates decreased 68% over the 5-year study, and were not decreased with navigation in 2014. Navigation was not found to increase operative time. There were no significant differences in short-term complications, readmission rate, or length of stay between navigated and traditional TKA.  相似文献

Background

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has perceived advantages in the early postoperative stage for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It is not clear whether the improved radiographic alignment achieved by computer-assisted navigation surgery (CAS) improves midterm clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to compare patient outcomes of MIS TKA performed with and without CAS after a minimum follow-up of 7 years.

Methods

Between 2007 and 2009, 50 patients underwent CAS and MIS TKA, and 50 patients underwent jig-based MIS TKA in this prospective study. Ninety-six patients were evaluated after a mean follow-up of 7.7 years, and clinical and radiological evaluations were performed.

Results

Midterm results demonstrated that the Knee Society knee score, function score, and range of motion were comparable in the 2 groups. The percentage of patients with the mechanical axis within ±3° of neutral was significantly higher in the CAS group than in the jig-based group (94% vs 79%, respectively; P = .038). No knees had loosening after TKA. However, 1 patient in the CAS group demonstrated late infection 4 years postoperatively.

Conclusion

CAS did not improve midterm outcomes after MIS TKA compared with jig-based surgery, although CAS reduced outliers in coronal alignment.  相似文献
