Synovial interleukin‐6 point‐of‐care testing, alone and combined with D‐dimer, supports rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Targeting ligament boundaries rather than alignment boundaries in augmented‐reality‐assisted total knee arthroplasty ensures comparable gait patterns between operated and contralateral limbs

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modern personalised total knee arthroplasty (TKA) techniques aim to mimic natural knee kinematics by focusing on soft‐tissue dynamics rather than static alignment. However, a consistent definition of the optimal ligamentous balance has not yet been established.

Single‐stage revision for chronic fistulized infected total knee arthroplasty achieves infection‐free survival comparable to non‐fistulized cases

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The presence of a sinus tract in chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has traditionally been considered a contraindication to single‐stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. However, an increasing number of surgeons are now performing single‐stage revisions in this context, despite limited comparative data.

A standardized surgical technique for DAIR improves treatment success rates in acute periprosthetic knee infection

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Results after debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (DAIR) for acute periprosthetic knee joint infections (PJIs) vary widely. Although data are limited, surgeon expertise and surgical technique likely influence outcomes. Standardized DAIR performed by surgeons within a multidisciplinary team (MDT) dedicated to the treatment of

Effects of extended stance time on a powered knee prosthesis and gait symmetry on the lateral control of balance during walking in individuals with unilateral amputation

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Individuals with lower limb amputation commonly exhibit large gait asymmetries that are associated with secondary health issues. It has been shown that they are capable of attaining improved temporal and propulsive symmetry when walking with a

Joint line obliquity disruption negatively affects mid‐term patient‐reported outcomes following total knee arthroplasty

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The influence of change in coronal alignment on clinical outcomes following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains unclear. The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification can be broken up into arithmetic hip–knee–ankle (aHKA) angle and joint line obliquity (JLO) components, potentially identifying distinct failure ...

Superior patient‐reported clinical outcomes after patient‐individual total knee arthroplasty compared with off‐the‐shelf robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty in valgus knee phenotypes

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare early patient‐reported clinical outcomes of patient‐individual total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with individualized trochlear design versus robotic‐assisted TKA using off‐the‐shelf implants in patients with valgus knee phenotypes and pronounced femoral valgus (lateral distal femoral angle [LDFA] < 85°) at 3 and 12 months ...

Mechanical axis correction after total knee arthroplasty alters ankle alignment but does not affect ankle function

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) restores knee function, but correction of coronal plane deformities may alter the biomechanics of adjacent joints. This study aimed to determine whether changes in knee alignment after TKA have clinical or radiological effects on the ankle.

Enhancing Gait Symmetry via Intact Limb Kinematic Mapping Control of a Hip Disarticulation Prosthesis

Biomimetics
Conventional hip disarticulation prostheses often require amputees to produce limited leg-lifting torque through exaggerated pelvic motion, resulting in complex control and pronounced gait abnormalities.
