Above-Knee versus Below-Knee Stockings in Total Knee Arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2006
INTRODUCTION Graduated compression stockings are frequently used following arthroplasty surgery for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis. There are often strongly held beliefs regarding whether below-knee or above-knee stockings should be used in total knee joint replacement.

A new Paraleius species (Acari, Oribatida, Scheloribatidae) associated with bark beetles (Curculionidae, Scolytinae) in Canada

open access: yesZooKeys, 2017
Bark beetles (Scolytinae) are hosts to a broad diversity of mites (Acari), including several genera of Oribatida (Sarcoptiformes). Of these, Paraleius (Scheloribatidae) species are the most frequently collected oribatid mites associated with bark beetles.

Knee mechanisms for through-knee prostheses [PDF]

open access: yesProsthetics & Orthotics International, 1983
The most widely used knee mechanisms for through-knee amputees can be characterized as three principal types of design. These types are metal side bars with heavy duty joints, conventional knee mechanisms for above-knee amputees and special polycentric linkage mechanisms for through-knee amputees. An investigation in Sweden in 1979 showed that over 50%

No difference in 13-year survival after medial pivot or central pivot mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty. A propensity matched comparative analysis

open access: yes, 2021
Purpose The present study was designed to evaluate the long-term results (more than 10 years) of mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to compare the survival of medial pivot axis (MPA) and central pivot axis (CPA) TKAs. The primary hypothesis

Higher risk of revision for infection using systemic clindamycin prophylaxis than with cloxacillin: A report from the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Register on 78,000 primary total knee arthroplasties for osteoarthritis

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica, 2017
Background and purpose — Clindamycin has not been compared with other antibiotics for prophylaxis in arthroplasty. Since 2009, the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Register (SKAR) has been collecting information on the prophylactic antibiotic regime used at ...

Anterior cruciate ligament resection has no clinical effect on mediolateral gap laxity assessment in robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesBone & Joint Open
Aims: The aim of this investigation was to assess the effects of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) resection on assessment of mediolateral laxity gaps during robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Radiographic assessment of knee-ankle alignment after total knee arthroplasty for varus and valgus knee osteoarthritis

open access: yes, 2017
Background: There are unanswered questions about knee-ankle alignment after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for varus and valgus osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The aim of this retrospective study was to assess knee-ankle alignment after TKA.

Non-invasive computer-assisted measurement of knee alignment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The quantification of knee alignment is a routine part of orthopaedic practice and is important for monitoring disease progression, planning interventional strategies, and follow-up of patients.

Inconsistent relationship between body weight/body mass index prior to total knee arthroplasty and the 12-year survival

open access: yes, 2019
Background: The primary hypothesis was that body weight (BW) and body mass index (BMI) significantly impact the long-term survival rate after implantation of a mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods: A national, multicentric, retrospective ...

Dynamic knee joint mechanics after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
There is a scarcity of information on the long term adaptations in lower limb biomechanics during game specific movements after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.
