Aims. Approximately 10% to 20% of knee arthroplasty patients are not satisfied with the result, while a clear indication for revision surgery might not be present. Therapeutic options for these patients, who often lack adequate quadriceps strength, are limited. Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical effect of a novel rehabilitation protocol that combines low-load resistance training (LL-RT) with
Introduction and Aim. Quadriceps strength is crucial for physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This study aimed to investigate the effect of combining
7–20 % of the patients with a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are dissatisfied without an indication for revision. Therapeutic options for this patient population with mostly a lack of quadriceps strength are limited. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of six weeks low load resistance training with
Abstract. Source of Study: London, United Kingdom. This intervention study was conducted to assess two developing protocols for quadriceps and hamstring rehabilitation:
Introduction Metal-on-Metal Hip Resurfacing (MMHR) has been established as a successful alternative to Total Hip Replacement (THR). However, several series report a 2 % incidence of early femoral neck fractures. Avascular necrosis (AVN) was considered to be responsible for the majority of observed fractures, raising concerns about the femoral head blood supply during MMHR. This study aims to further understand the mechanisms of femoral
