Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a frequently performed major orthopedic surgery, where most patients experience severe postoperative pain. Pain-related delays in patient mobilization can lead to thromboembolism, deep vein thrombosis, surgical site infection, and increased risk of hospital-acquired infections due to prolonged hospital stay. Optimal postoperative knee analgesia is crucial …
In our study, investigators plan to compare the preoperative RF and genicular nerve ablation approach in patients who underwent TKA(Total Knee Arthroplasty) using the Fast-Track protocol in terms of meeting postoperative pain, function and early discharge criteria.
Patients with degenerative joint disease can effectively be treated with a primary total knee replacement to reduce pain and improve function in their daily lives. Theoretically, achievement of normal knee motion using a medial pivot design in total knee replacements can be recreated in comparison to single radius designs, which …
Total knee replacement (TKR) is considered the most effective and safe method of radical treatment of late stages of knee osteoarthritis. A well-known problem of TKR is a severe postoperative pain syndrome, which is observed in more than 50% of patients. Femoral nerve block (FNB) is the "gold standard" for …
Double-blind randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial with two parallel arms. The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of creatine supplementation in older adults who have been operated on for total knee arthroplasty and undergoing a usual rehabilitation program. The intervention will consist of daily creatine monohydrate supplementation for …
This randomized clinical trial will involve 50 participants aged 13 to 16, recruited from Faisal Hospital Faisalabad and different schools nearby. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the Alexander Technique group, which will include home-based exercises supervised by parents, or a control group performing traditional posture-corrective exercises. The outcomes …
The traditional technique for implanting a total knee prosthesis, known as mechanical alignment, does not aim to preserve the original anatomy and laxity of the knee. Instead, the implants are "systematically" aligned to create a non-naturally straight lower limb. Respectively 20% and 50% of patients with a mechanically aligned total …
To demonstrate that the deficit in dorsiflexion-tibia-talar joint range of motion can have an effect on the knee operated by arthroplasty by limiting full extension and, in general, the recovery of a full range of motion.
Total knee replacement surgery is associated with significant pain in the immediate postoperative period, especially in movement. In turn, this is associated with more subsequent chronic pain. There are multiple options and the tendency is to perform increasingly distal nerve blocks to minimize limb weakness and thus allow early rehabilitation. …
Effective postoperative pain management remains a cornerstone of enhanced recovery protocols following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Inadequate analgesia not only compromises patient satisfaction but also impedes early mobilization and rehabilitation, thereby increasing the risk of perioperative complications. Current multimodal analgesic strategies frequently incorporate regional techniques, with the adductor canal block …
