Tibiofemoral dynamic stressed gap laxities correlate with compartment load measurements in robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesBone & Joint Open, 2021
Aims: It is unknown whether gap laxities measured in robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) correlate to load sensor measurements. The aim of this study was to determine whether symmetry of the maximum medial and lateral gaps in extension and

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.

Knee registries

open access: yesJournal of ISAKOS, 2022
These lofty goals are consistent with just about every knee registry irrespective of the type of knee surgery being measured. We should ask if they have been reached. Should we continue with registries or are there better, more relevant and accurate methods to assess and ultimately improve our surgery.

Knee pain, knee osteoarthritis, and the risk of fracture [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Care & Research, 2006
AbstractObjectivePatients with osteoarthritis (OA) have increased bone mineral density; however, the association between knee OA and fracture is controversial. Few data exist on the association between knee pain and fracture. We examined the association of knee OA and knee pain with fracture and falls in elderly men and women.MethodsThe study group ...

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%

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 ...

The Complexity of Human Walking: A Knee Osteoarthritis Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study proposes a framework for deconstructing complex walking patterns to create a simple principal component space before checking whether the projection to this space is suitable for identifying changes from the normality.
