Swelling Management After Knee Replacement
To determine if inelastic adjustable compression garment results in improved surgical limb swelling control (bioimpedance assessment - primary outcome) after TKA compared to control (TED hose).
Return to Sports After Knee Arthroplasty
The ability to return to sports after joint arthroplasty is increasingly becoming an important factor for patients in terms of their perceived quality of life. In sports orthopaedics, standardized functional tests have already been established - particularly for anterior cruciate ligament injuries - to assess athletic performance and prevent re-injury. …
Efficacy of Dalbavancin in Osteoarticular Infections Associated With Hip and Knee Replacements
Osteoarticular infections associated with hip and knee prostheses require optimal surgical and medical management to maximize the rate of therapeutic success. Antibiotic therapy should be administered for a period of 12 weeks. Tolerance problems, difficulties in maintaining compliance over 12 weeks, bacterial multidrug resistance and sometimes intravenous administration are the …
Comparison of Ultrasound-Guided Lumbar ESPB and ACB for Knee Arthroplasty
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a surgical procedure frequently associated with moderate-to-severe postoperative pain. While Adductor Canal Block (ACB) has demonstrated analgesic efficacy in TKA, the Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) is also being utilized as part of multimodal analgesia for postoperative pain management in lower extremity surgeries. Currently, there …
Radiofrequency Ablation for the Treatment of Post-knee Arthroplasty Chronic Pain.
Knee osteoarthritis pain is one of the conditions commonly seen in general and specialized medicine. Knee arthroplasty is one of the most successful orthopedic surgeries for the treatment of this disease, significantly improving pain, disability, and the overall quality of life for patients who undergo it. However, there is a …
Program Based on the Family-Centered Empowerment Model on Total Knee Prosthesis Patients and Their Caregivers
In this study, the family empowerment model program given to individuals who underwent Total Knee Prosthesis and their caregivers was examined on the individuals' physiological function level, self-efficacy, and post-discharge hospital readmission (during the follow-up period); It was aimed to determine the effect of caregivers on their care burden, caregiving …
Efficacy of Microparticle Geniculate Artery Embolization in Total Knee Prosthesis Patients With Pain Resistant to Medical Treatment. A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
The goal of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the effectiveness on pain of arterial occlusion (embolization) of neovessels by microparticle in a double-blind sham controlled randomised trial in patients with persistent pain on a total knee prosthesis (TKP), inserted for gonarthrosis, despite well-conducted medical treatment. The study patient population …
Evaluation of PLG0206 in Prevention of Recurrent Infection in Patients Undergoing Debridement, Antibiotics, and Implant Retention (DAIR) for Treatment of a Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI) Following Knee Arthroplasty
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the investigational drug PLG0206 can help reduce recurrence of infection in adults who have undergone total knee replacement and are receiving a DAIR (Debridement, Antibiotics, and Implant Retention) surgical procedure to treat a Prosthetic Joint Infection (PJI). The study will …
HAKA: Routine Follow-Up at 1 Year After Hip- or Knee Arthroplasty: Wasting Resources or Appropriate Healthcare?
After undergoing total hip or total knee arthroplasty, current guidelines recommend routine follow-up with an X-ray within 3 months and again at 1 year. Follow-up at 5 years (for hip arthroplasties) or every 5 years (for knee arthroplasties) is also considered worthwhile according to the guideline. However, these follow-up appointments …
Implementation of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation After Total Knee Arthroplasty
Patients experience dramatic quadriceps strength loss after total knee replacement, which contributes to persistent weakness and reduced long-term function after surgery. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) reduces quadriceps weakness and improves patient function after knee replacement, but it is drastically underused in rehabilitation practice. This randomized trial will examine the effectiveness …
