To estimate the measurement properties for the Oxford Knee Score (OKS) in patients undergoing revision knee arthroplasty (responsiveness, minimal detectable change (MDC-90), minimal important change (MIC), minimal important difference (MID), internal consistency, construct validity, and interpretability). Secondary data analysis was performed for 10,727 patients undergoing revision knee arthroplasty between 2013 to 2019 using a UK national patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) dataset. Outcome data were collected before revision and at six months postoperatively, using the OKS and EuroQol five-dimension score (EQ-5D). Measurement properties were assessed according to COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health status Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) guidelines.Aims
Methods
The objective of this study was to compare early postoperative
functional outcomes and time to hospital discharge between conventional
jig-based total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and robotic-arm assisted
TKA. This prospective cohort study included 40 consecutive patients
undergoing conventional jig-based TKA followed by 40 consecutive
patients receiving robotic-arm assisted TKA. All surgical procedures
were performed by a single surgeon using the medial parapatellar
approach with identical implant designs and standardized postoperative inpatient
rehabilitation. Inpatient functional outcomes and time to hospital
discharge were collected in all study patients.Aims
Patients and Methods
Revision of a total knee arthroplasty may require an extensile approach to permit a satisfactory exposure without compromising the attachment of the patellar tendon. It has been assumed that a rectus snip is a relatively benign form of release, but the effect of using this approach on function, pain and patient satisfaction is not known. From January 1997 to December 1999, 107 patients who underwent revision of total knee arthroplasty were followed up at a minimum of two years (mean 40.5 months) and assessed by the
