COVID-19 pandemic and total knee arthroplasty: the concept of a containment sheet—a frugal innovation

Arthroplasty, 2020
Background The primary purpose of the present study was to assess whether use of proposed containment sheet (so called “a frugal innovation”) minimizes the aerosol and splatter dispersion during total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Ultrasound Neuromodulation (Low‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound) to Treat Knee Osteoarthritis Pain

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Low‐intensity focused ultrasound is a non‐invasive neuromodulation technique that delivers mechanical forces to a deep location within the body through acoustic pressure waves without affecting tissue between the transducer and focal target. Preliminary studies involving healthy volunteers suggest focused ultrasound reversibly prevents action potential

Characteristics of eligible patients with knee osteoarthritis accepting versus declining participation in a randomised trial investigating the effect of weight loss versus knee arthroplasty to explore generalisability: A cross‐sectional study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The INtensive diet versus Knee Arthroplasty (INKA) trial is a randomised trial assessing weight loss as an alternative to knee arthroplasty (KA) in obese patients with severe knee osteoarthritis (OA) awaiting KA (NCT05172843). The external validity of the INKA trial may be hampered if the patients who participate differ from those ...

Total hip arthroplasties in the Dutch Arthroplasty Register (LROI) and the Nordic Arthroplasty Register Association (NARA): comparison of patient and procedure characteristics in 475,685 cases

Acta Orthopaedica, 2020
Background and purpose — Collaborations between arthroplasty registries are important in order to create the possibility of detecting inferior implants early and improve our understanding of differences between nations in terms of indications and ...

Does cup position differ between trabecular metal and titanium cups? A radiographic propensity score matched study of 300 hips

Acta Orthopaedica, 2020
Background and purpose — The use of trabecular metal cups in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increasing, despite the survival of Continuum cups being slightly inferior compared with other uncemented cups in registries.

High‐grade trochlear dysplasia increases patellofemoral joint pressure and decreases the knee extension torque, and tibial tubercle anteriorisation does not correct these effects: Biomechanical study in vitro

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose High‐grade femoral trochlear dysplasia is associated with anterior knee pain, patellar maltracking, instability and the development of osteoarthritis. Scientific studies have signified the importance of trochlear resection on the knee extensor mechanism, and dysplasia can be addressed by a groove‐deepening trochleoplasty. Alternatively,

Routine‐data‐compatible quality indicators for the ambulatory care of osteoarthritis of the knee and hip: A systematic review

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Germany has high rates of total joint arthroplasty for osteoarthritis of the knee and hip. Ambulatory health interventions can affect the progression of these conditions and the need for total joint arthroplasty. Quality indicators and guideline recommendations facilitate the transparent measurement and demonstration of care quality ...
