The projected economic burden and complications of revision hip and knee arthroplasties: Insights from national registry studies

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract The rising volume of primary hip and knee arthroplasties has led to a parallel increase in revision surgeries, creating significant clinical and economic challenges for healthcare systems worldwide. This study synthesizes national arthroplasty registry data to evaluate trends in revision aetiology, associated costs and regional disparities ...

Higher surgeon volume reduces early failure in first time revision of non‐infected total knee arthroplasty: An analysis using data from the United Kingdom National Joint Registry

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Revision total knee replacement (RevKR) is an increasingly common procedure. It is hypothesised that higher surgical volume is linked to lower levels of adverse outcomes. The aim was to estimate the association of surgical volume on patient outcomes following first single‐stage RevKR for non‐infected indications.

Within-socket Myoelectric Prediction of Continuous Ankle Kinematics for Control of a Powered Transtibial Prosthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objective. Powered robotic prostheses create a need for natural-feeling user interfaces and robust control schemes. Here, we examined the ability of a nonlinear autoregressive model to continuously map the kinematics of a transtibial prosthesis and ...

Diabetes and total knee arthroplasty: A nationwide analysis of complications, hospitalization outcomes and revision burden

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a frequently performed surgical procedure aimed at reducing pain, improving mobility, and restoring function in patients with advanced knee osteoarthritis. As patients undergoing TKA age, the prevalence of comorbidities, particularly diabetes, continues to rise.

Metal sensitivity in total joint arthroplasty: None of the current diagnostic tests are reliable, sensitive and specific enough to guide treatment decisions!

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose This systematic review was conducted to evaluate the current literature on metal hypersensitivity in patients undergoing joint arthroplasty. The aims of the study were to report diagnostic tools used to assess metal hypersensitivity and to report complications arising in patients who are hypersensitive to nickel or other metals ...

The simulation for study of von Mises stress sensitiveness to the change of coronal conformity in knee prosthesis

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Two-dimensional finite element contact modelling is often conducted to simulate the contact mechanism in knee prosthesis. This is based on the assumption that the contact stresses are more sensitive to change in the coronal plane than in the sagittal ...

Long-term Follow up of Van Nes Rotationplasty for Congenital Proximal Focal Femoral Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Van Nes rotationplasty may be used for patients with congenital proximal focal femoral deficiency (PFFD). The lower limb is rotated to use the ankle and foot as a functional knee joint within a prosthesis.
