Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is associated with greater patient preference but higher revision rates than total knee arthroplasty in the same patient: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Despite the high prevalence of isolated knee compartment disease, unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is often avoided in patients with a contralateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of a contralateral TKA on functional outcomes, patient preference and long‐term survivorship following

Striving for a silent knee: a qualitative study of patients’ experiences with knee replacement surgery and their perceptions of fulfilled expectations

International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health & Well-Being, 2019
Purpose: Fifteen to twenty percent of patients with a knee arthroplasty are dissatisfied with their replaced joint. This study aimed to describe patients’ experiences of undergoing knee replacement surgery, both total- and unicompartmental knee ...

No clinical and functional benefit after medial congruent compared to ultra congruent total knee arthroplasty at 1 year: A prospective randomized controlled study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Various conforming bearing designs are used during total knee arthroplasty (TKA), yet their impact on clinical outcomes remains uncertain. In recent years, the use of medial congruent (MC) and ultra congruent (UC) onlays has gained popularity.

Postoperative rehabilitation after transtibial pullout repair of medial meniscus posterior root tears: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To characterise rehabilitation protocols after transtibial pullout repair for medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) and evaluate whether study‐level rehabilitation parameters were associated with longitudinal changes in patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs).

The Application of Telemedicine in Surgery

Med Research, EarlyView.
This figure provides an overview of the content presented in this article. Telemedicine is integrated throughout the entire surgical workflow, with distinct applications across the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases. These applications are enabled by a suite of supporting technologies, while the associated implementation challenges ...

How many people in the Netherlands live with a hip, knee, or shoulder replacement?: prevalence estimates using data from the Dutch Arthroplasty Register (LROI) and Statistics Netherlands

Bone & Joint Open
Aims: We estimated the prevalence of people living with at least one hip, knee, or shoulder arthroplasty in the Netherlands. Methods: We included the first hip (n = 416,333), knee (n = 314,569), or shoulder (n = 23,751) arthroplasty of each patient ...

Comparison of two methods for probabilistic finite element analysis of total knee replacement

, 2008
Probabilistic Finite Element (FE) models have recently been developed to assess the impact of experimental variability present in knee wear simulator on predicted Total Knee Replacement (TKR) mechanics by determining the performance envelope of joint ...

Increasing Obesity Severity Is Associated With Less Surgical Care in the United States

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Approximately 41% of the US population has obesity, though the prevalence of the highest BMI populations (e.g., ≥ 60 kg/m2) is increasing most rapidly. Given the association between obesity and surgical disease burden, we hypothesized that higher BMI groups would account for a growing proportion of operative volume over time.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
