INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2024:10.1007/s00264-024-06275-5. [PMID: 39180538 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-024-06275-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/10/2024] [Indexed: 08/26/2024]
Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY The purpose of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the microbiological profiles in periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) between diabetic and non-diabetic patients. The study aims to address what are the variations in microbial colonization and infection patterns between diabetic and non-diabetic patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 2,569 culture-positive cases of PJIs post-TKA was conducted, comparing outcomes between diabetic (n = 321) and non-diabetic (n = 2,248) patients. Demographic, clinical, and microbiological data were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-squared tests, logistic regression, and other statistical tests. RESULTS Diabetic patients exhibited distinct microbial colonization patterns, with a higher prevalence of pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus (p = 0.033), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (p < 0.001), Streptococcus spp. (Streptococcus agalactiae and Streptococcus dysgalactiae; p = 0.010, 0.016 respectively), Candida spp. (p = 0.010), and Corynebacterium spp. (p = 0.024). Additionally, diabetic patients were at increased risk of polymicrobial infections. Comorbidities associated with diabetes, including chronic pulmonary disease, renal insufficiency, and peripheral artery disease, were significantly more prevalent in diabetic patients and further complicated PJI outcomes. CONCLUSION This study underscores the importance of tailored perioperative antimicrobial strategies and vigilant infection control measures in diabetic patients undergoing TKA. Understanding the differential microbial profiles and associated comorbidities can inform targeted interventions to mitigate the risk of PJIs and improve outcomes in this high-risk population. Further research is warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and optimize management strategies for diabetic patients undergoing TKA.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a self-report questionnaire evaluating functional priorities after hip or knee arthroplasty and evaluate patients' understanding of its items and conceptual relevance. METHODS A self-report questionnaire was first developed based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) core set for osteoarthritis (OA). In the second stage, two research physiotherapists thoroughly reviewed and refined the questionnaire, and another physiotherapist conducted cognitive think-aloud interviews with 18 patients to assess the face and content validity of the questionnaire. RESULTS All categories and corresponding activities of ICF core set for OA were used to develop the questionnaire. Several questionnaire issues were identified and addressed. Most challenges were related to comprehension, followed by item ordering and visual elements. Patients identified ambiguous wording which we subsequently simplified. Ten activities of the core set were excluded due to lack of face validity, two activities were added, and four activities were modified. CONCLUSION The findings suggest that the ICF core set for OA needs to be adjusted for patients undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty and highlight the feasibility of applying a modified core set to assess functional priorities after hip or knee arthroplasty.

Abstract
We report the results of a first-in-human phase 1 clinical study to evaluate TRL1068, a native human monoclonal antibody that disrupts bacterial biofilms with broad-spectrum activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative species. The study population consisted of patients with chronic periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) of the knee or hip, including both monomicrobial and polymicrobial infections, that are highly resistant to antibiotics due to biofilm formation. TRL1068 was administered via a single pre-surgical intravenous infusion in three sequentially ascending dose groups (6, 15, and 30 mg/kg). Concomitant perioperative antibiotics were pathogen-targeted as prescribed by the treating physician. In this double-blinded study, 4 patients were randomized to receive placebo and 11 patients to receive TRL1068 on day 1, as well as targeted antibiotics for 7 days prior to the scheduled removal of the infected implant and placement of an antibiotic-eluting spacer as the first stage of the standard of care two-stage exchange arthroplasty. No adverse events attributable to TRL1068 were reported. TRL1068 serum half-life was 15-18 days. At day 8, the concentration in synovial fluid was approximately 60% of the blood level and thus at least 15-fold above the threshold for biofilm-disrupting activity in vitro. Explanted prostheses were sonicated to release adherent bacteria for culture, with elimination of the implant bacteria observed in 3 of the 11 patients who received TRL1068, which compares favorably to prior PJI treatments. None of the patients who received TRL1068 had a relapse of the original infection by the end of the study (day 169). CLINICAL TRIALS This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov as NCT04763759.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study looks to investigate how not meeting eligibility criteria affects postoperative outcomes following total joint arthroplasty surgery. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of total joint arthroplasty patients at a single academic institution. Demographics, laboratory values, and complications were recorded. Continuous and categorical variables were compared using the Student's T-test and the Chi-Square test, respectively. Multivariable analysis was used to control for confounding variables. RESULTS Our study included 915 total hip and 1,579 total knee arthroplasty patients. For total hip and total knee arthroplasty, there were no significant differences in complications (P = .11 and .87), readmissions (P = .83 and .2), or revision surgeries (P = .3 and 1) when comparing those who met all criteria to those who did not. Total hip arthroplasty patients who did not meet two criteria had 16.1 higher odds (P = .02) of suffering a complication. There were no differences in complications (P = .34 and .41), readmissions (P = 1 and .55), or revision surgeries (P = 1 and .36) between ineligible patients treated by total joint arthroplasty surgeons and those who were not. Multivariable analysis demonstrated no eligibility factors were associated with outcomes for both total hip and knee arthroplasty. CONCLUSIONS There was no significant difference in outcomes between those who met all eligibility criteria and those who did not. Not meeting two criteria conferred significantly higher odds of suffering a complication for total hip arthroplasty patients. Total joint arthroplasty surgeons had similar outcomes to non-total joint surgeons, although their patient population was more complex. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is a common procedure that improves the quality of life for severe arthritis patients. The rising demand for TJA places enormous financial strain on the world's healthcare systems, which is exacerbated by postoperative readmissions for complications such as periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine if asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) increases infection risk. METHODS We conducted searches in three databases: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Screening steps have been carried out according to PRISMA guidelines. The study focused on patients who had undergone TJA and exhibited ASB. Two reviewers independently screened, assessed quality, and extracted data. Meta-analysis used Mantel-Haenszel method. RESULTS Following full-text screening, 12 studies were deemed eligible for inclusion in the systematic review, encompassing a total of 42,592 patients. A heightened occurrence of PJI was observed among TJA patients with ASB in comparison to controls (OR [95%CI] = 3.47 [1.42-8.44]). However, microorganisms responsible for the PJIs differed from those identified in the urine cultures of ASB. Additionally, analyses indicate that preoperative antibiotic treatment for ASB does not significantly affect the subsequent risk of PJI (OR [95% CI] = 1.00 [0.42-2.39]). Unlike surgical site infection (SSI), which did not show a difference in the rate of occurrence between the two groups, TJA patients with ASB were more likely to experience superficial wound infection (OR [95%CI] = 3.81 [2.02-7.21]). CONCLUSION This review and meta-analysis confirm that ASB correlate with heightened risks of PJI and superficial infection in TJA patients. However, no relationship was found between ASB and PJI microorganisms which raise doubts about the role of ASB microorganisms as the direct cause of infection following TJA.

Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) improves patients' Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) compared to before surgery. However, based on our knowledge, the improvement in HRQoL after TKA, which depends on various factors, has yet to be investigated compared to healthy people. This study aimed to evaluate the HRQoL of patients compared to healthy people and the factors affecting the HRQoL after TKA. In this matched case-control study (1002 participants), HRQoL in 501 patients who underwent TKA between 2015 and 2022 at Shafa Yahyainan Hospital affiliated with Iran University of Medical Sciences were compared with 501 healthy controls. HRQoL was evaluated in two parts (before compared to 12 months after TKA and 12 months after TKA compared to the healthy population). The 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36) was used to evaluate HRQoL 12 months after surgery. The influencing factors on HRQoL were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression analysis. No significant difference was observed in the demographic characteristics of the participants in the two groups. The mean overall SF-36 score, 12 months after surgery, significantly improved compared to before surgery (64.21 ± 22.2 vs. 37.55 ± 15.13, p:0.001). The mean total score of SF-36 was statistically similar between the case and control groups (64.21 ± 22.2 VS 72.53 ± 25.3). The multivariate analysis showed that sex, BMI, number of comorbidities, postoperative compliance, and complications were significantly related to the decrease in patients' HRQoL (P < 0.001).TKA can improve the HRQoL except for two subscales of happiness/vitality and physical performance, similar to the healthy population. Female gender, obesity and overweight, comorbidity, bilateral TKA, non-adherence to postoperative physiotherapy, and complications were associated with decreased HRQoL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periprosthetic joint infection after total joint arthroplasty has a large incidence, and it may often require two or more stages of revision, placing an additional burden on clinicians and patients. The purpose of this network meta-analysis is to evaluate the effect of four different preventive strategies during total joint arthroplasty on the prevention of periprosthetic joint infection. METHODS The study protocol was registered at PROSPERO (CRD: 42,023,448,868), and the literature search databases included Web of Science, PubMed, OVID Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, OVID EMBASE, and OVID MEDLINE (R) ALL that met the requirements. The network meta-analysis included randomized controlled trials, retrospective cohort studies and prospective cohort studies with the outcome of periprosthetic joint infection. The gemtc R package was applied to perform the network meta-analysis to evaluate the relative results of different preventive strategies. RESULTS This network meta-analysis study included a total of 38 articles with 4 preventive strategies and negative controls. No improvement was observed in antibiotic-loaded bone cement compared with negative controls. Chlorhexidine showed the highest probability of delivering the best preventive effect, and povidone iodine had the second highest probability. Although vancomycin ranked after chlorhexidine and povidone iodine, it still showed a significant difference compared with negative controls. In addition, the incidence after applying chlorhexidine was significantly lower than that after applying negative controls and vancomycin. In the heterogeneity test between direct and indirect evidence, there was no apparent heterogeneity between them. CONCLUSION The study indicated that chlorhexidine, povidone iodine and vancomycin showed significant efficacy in preventing periprosthetic joint infection after total joint arthroplasty, while antibiotic-loaded bone cement did not. Therefore, more high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed to verify the results above.

Abstract
Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most successful procedures for end-stage knee osteoarthritis. To determine the effect of preoperative knee joint function on postoperative quality of life in patients undergoing primary TKA. This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with a total of 208 patients in the orthopedics and traumatology clinic. Data were gathered with a personal information form, the Oxford Knee Score (OKS), and the EQ-5D-5L Quality Of Life Scale in the preoperative period, at postoperative 6th week, and at postoperative 3rd month. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), correlation analysis, and simple linear regression analysis. The mean age of the patients was 65.65 ± 7.01 years. Most patients (86.1%) were women, and 51.4% underwent left TKA. OKS scores indicated poor knee function preoperatively and gradually increased at postoperative 6th week and 3rd month. Preoperative OKS was a significant predictor of postoperative knee joint function and quality of life. This study shows that preoperative knee joint function significantly affects postoperative knee joint function and quality of life. These results demonstrate the importance of the surgery timing and suggest that performing surgery earlier in functional decline may be associated with a better outcome.

Kawano T, Nankaku M, Murao M, Yuri T, Kitamura G, Goto K, Kuroda Y, Kawai T, Okuzu Y, Ikeguchi R, Matsuda S. Association of physical activity with fatty infiltration of muscles after total hip arthroplasty. Skeletal Radiol 2024; 53:967-974. [PMID: 37999749 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-023-04516-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the association between muscle density as an indicator of fatty infiltration of lower extremity muscles and physical activity (PA) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and identify the patient characteristics with high postoperative PA. METHODS This study included 62 female patients who underwent THA for unilateral hip osteoarthritis. Muscle density of the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, iliopsoas, and quadriceps muscles was measured using computed tomography (CT). PA was assessed using University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) activity scores. CT and UCLA activity score were obtained before and 1 year after THA. The patients were divided into two groups, sufficient (score ≥ 6) and insufficient (score < 6) activity groups, based on their level of PA as determined by their UCLA activity score 1 year after THA. The association of PA with the amount of changes in muscle density was examined with Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify postoperative factors determining PA at 1 year after THA. RESULTS Spearman's rank correlation coefficient showed a significantly positive association between recovery in PA and an increase in muscle density of the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, iliopsoas, and quadriceps muscles. Additionally, logistic regression analysis confirmed that postoperative muscle densities of the gluteus maximus and quadriceps muscles were variables determining the PA 1 year after THA. CONCLUSION The findings of this study indicated that the improvement of fatty infiltration in lower limb muscles, especially in the gluteus maximus and quadriceps, is likely to promote the increase in postoperative PA.

Long-term cognitive outcome after elective hip or knee total joint arthroplasty: A population-based observational study. J Am Geriatr Soc 2024; 72:1338-1347.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One year after elective hip or knee total joint arthroplasty (TJA), >30% of older adults meet criteria for postoperative neurocognitive disorder. However, this is not contextualized with long-term cognitive outcomes in comparable surgical and nonsurgical controls. We analyzed population-based data to compare long-term cognitive outcomes in older adults after TJA, other surgeries, and with and without arthritis pain. METHODS This was a retrospective observational analysis of United States older adults in the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) who underwent elective TJA, or elective surgery without expected functional benefits (e.g., cholecystectomy; inguinal herniorrhaphy), between 1998 and 2018 at aged 65 or older. TJA recipients were also age- and sex-matched to nonsurgical controls who reported moderate-severe arthritic pain or denied pain, so that comparison groups included surgical and nonsurgical (pain-suffering and pain-free) controls. We modeled biennially-assessed memory performance, a measure of direct and proxy cognitive assessments, before and after surgery, normalized to the rate of memory decline ("cognitive aging") in controls to express effect size estimates as excess, or fewer, months of memory decline. We used linear mixed effects models adjusted for preoperative health and demographic factors, including frailty, flexibly capturing time before/after surgery (knots at -4, 0, 8 years; discontinuity at surgery). RESULTS There were 1947 TJA recipients (average age 74; 63% women; 1358 knee, 589 hip) and 1631 surgical controls (average age 76; 38% women). Memory decline 3 years after TJA was similar to surgical controls (5.2 [95% confidence interval, CI -1.2 to 11.5] months less memory decline in the TJA group, p = 0.11) and nonsurgical controls. At 5 years, TJA recipients experienced 5.0 [95% CI -0.9 to 10.9] months less memory decline than arthritic pain nonsurgical controls. CONCLUSION There is no systematic accelerated memory decline at 3 years after TJA compared with surgical or nonsurgical controls.

Abstract
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a prevalent complication of joint replacement surgery which has the potential to decrease patient satisfaction, increase financial burden, and lead to long-term disability. The identification of risk factors for CPSP following TKA and THA is challenging but essential for targeted preventative therapy. Recent meta-analyses and individual studies highlight associations between elevated state anxiety, depression scores, preoperative pain, diabetes, sleep disturbances, and various other factors with an increased risk of CPSP, with differences observed in prevalence between TKA and THA. While the etiology of CPSP is not fully understood, several factors such as chronic inflammation and preoperative central sensitization have been identified. Other potential mechanisms include genetic factors (e.g., catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 6 (KCNJ6) genes), lipid markers, and psychological risk factors (anxiety and depression). With regards to therapeutics and prevention, multimodal pharmacological analgesia, emphasizing nonopioid analgesics like acetaminophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), has gained prominence over epidural analgesia. Nerve blocks and local infiltrative anesthesia have shown mixed results in preventing CPSP. Ketamine, an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-receptor antagonist, exhibits antihyperalgesic properties, but its efficacy in reducing CPSP is inconclusive. Lidocaine, an amide-type local anesthetic, shows tentative positive effects on CPSP. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) have mixed results, while gabapentinoids, like gabapentin and pregabalin, present hopeful data but require further research, especially in the context of TKA and THA, to justify their use for CPSP prevention.

Abstract
Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is effective in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis. Radiographic evaluation, standard in THA planning, is sufficient in examining hip anatomy, although it may not precisely assess bone quality. A routinely implemented method in bone quality assessment is densitometry. The technique allows for a measurement of bone mineral density (BMD). Methodology In the study, we included 26 participants who qualified for THA. All the patients were preoperatively examined with radiographs and densitometry of the affected hip. On the preoperative anteroposterior radiograph, we measured the canal-to-calcar isthmus ratio (CC ratio) and the cortical index (CI). Intraoperatively, during the THA procedure, we measured the thickness of the cortical bone and the diameter of the femoral neck in the line of neck resection. Results The examination with Pearson's correlation coefficient revealed that BMD significantly positively correlates with the intraoperatively measured diameter of the femoral neck (r = 0.5, P = 0.009), and with the measured thickness of the cortical bone (r = 0.47, P = 0.015), CI significantly positively correlates with the intraoperatively measured diameter of the femoral neck (r = 0.6, P = 0.001), and with the CC ratio (r = 0.44, P = 0.024), the intraoperatively measured diameter of the femoral neck significantly positively correlates with the intraoperatively measured thickness of the cortical bone (r = 0.59, P = 0.001). All of the other correlations were not statistically significant. Conclusions BMD measurements can be used in THA planning as they positively correlate with intraoperative measurements. The radiological parameters (CC ratio and CI) may not be as precise in bone quality assessment.

Abstract
Introduction Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) has been widely reported to improve outcomes and quality of life (QoL) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), but there are still 15 - 20% of patients still experience pain, physical limitations, and other complications after TKA. Therefore, it is necessary to identify various factors that correlate with QoL from current evidence. The objective is to review the literature on factors that correlate with QoL in patients who underwent TKA. Materials and methods A literature search was conducted on five databases, i.e. ProQuest, CINAHL, Medline, Embase, and Scopus, using the following keywords: total knee arthroplasty (TKA), post-operative, quality of life (QoL), and outcome. There were no restrictions on the research design. Results This review found 14 articles (7 prospective studies and 7 retrospective studies) involving 15,972 patients who underwent TKA, with an age range of 32 - 94 years. All articles reported improvement in QoL after TKA. The review revealed 30 factors, of which 15 factors were significantly correlated with QoL after TKA. The factors were grouped into four types: demographic, socioeconomic, clinical, and psychosocial factors. Conclusion Information regarding factors that correlate with QoL after TKA can be used for directing treatment and discharge planning according to the patient's factors.

Abstract
Objective Investigational cell therapies have been developed as disease-modifying agents for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA), including those that inducibly respond to inflammatory factors driving OA progression. However, dysregulated inflammatory cascades do not specifically signify the presence of OA. Here, we deploy a synthetic receptor platform that regulates cell behaviors in an arthritis-specific fashion to confine transgene expression to sites characterized by cartilage degeneration. Methods An scFv specific for type II collagen (CII) was used to produce a synthetic Notch (synNotch) receptor that enables "CII-synNotch" mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) to recognize CII fibers exposed in damaged cartilage. Engineered cell activation by both CII-treated culture surfaces and on primary tissue samples was measured via inducible reporter transgene expression. TGFβ3-expressing cells were assessed for cartilage anabolic gene expression via qRT-PCR. In a co-culture with CII-synNotch MSCs engineered to express IL-1Ra, ATDC5 chondrocytes were stimulated with IL-1α, and inflammatory responses of ATDC5s were profiled via qRT-PCR and an NF-κB reporter assay. Results CII-synNotch MSCs are highly responsive to CII, displaying activation ranges over 40-fold in response to physiologic CII inputs. CII-synNotch cells exhibit the capacity to distinguish between healthy and damaged cartilage tissue and constrain transgene expression to regions of exposed CII fibers. Receptor-regulated TGFβ3 expression resulted in upregulation of Acan and Col2a1 in MSCs, and inducible IL-1Ra expression by engineered CII-synNotch MSCs reduced pro-inflammatory gene expression in chondrocytes. Conclusion This work demonstrates proof-of-concept that the synNotch platform guides MSCs for spatially regulated, disease-dependent delivery of OA-relevant biologic drugs.

Abstract
Background Replacement arthroplasty surgery is a surgical procedure that is needed to restore the activity of a joint. Patient satisfaction regarding arthroplasty surgery is influenced by post-operative complication rate, ability to afford care, and quality of interaction. In this study, we assessed patients' postoperative complications, mobility, and pain management as proxies for their overall satisfaction with total joint replacement (TJR). Methods An anonymous web-based survey was conducted for patients who had undergone any total joint replacement surgery in the US. Respondents were adults living in the United States. Results 180 individuals met the inclusion criteria and responded to the survey. Age, education, gender, and race were fitted against the patient satisfaction level with the surgeon. While education [P=0.4720], gender [P=0.5097 ], and race [P=0.8183] were not significant, age in years [P=0.02340] was predictive of overall satisfaction levels [R2=0.0213]. When controlling for BMI, infection [P=0.0164], nerve damage [P=0.0250], delayed healing [P=0.0024], hematoma [P=0.0497], were more likely to occur in participants who have had a knee replacement, as compared to shoulder and hip replacement surgery. When controlling for mobility before surgery vs. mobility after surgery [P=0.0114], patients who selected the highest level of mobility before surgery were likely to select the highest level of mobility after surgery. Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, employer-based insurance, and no insurance were fitted against the patient's self-reported difficulty in paying for their treatment/care. Although employer-based insurance [P=0.0790] was not significant in predicting difficulty in paying for the surgery, patients with Medicaid [P=0.0280], Medicare [P=0.0200], or private insurance [P=0.0343] did. Conclusion In this cohort, older patients were associated with having improved satisfaction with the surgeon who performed their joint replacement. Complications were higher in patients who underwent a knee arthroplasty compared to a shoulder or hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) criteria leads to increased mortality. Little is known about development of SIRS in patients who have prosthetic joint infection (PJI). We aimed to determine the incidence, risk factors, clinical outcomes, and causative organisms in patients who develop SIRS with PJI. METHODS We retrospectively identified 655 patients (321 men, 334 women; 382 total hip, 273 total knee) who have hip or knee PJI at 1 institution between July 1, 2015 and December 31, 2020. We formed 2 groups: patients who have SIRS alert (PJI + SIRS) and patients who do not have SIRS alert (PJI). We analyzed clinical outcomes, comorbidities, and operating room culture results. RESULTS Of 655 patients, 63 developed SIRS with PJI (9.6%). Intensive care unit (ICU) admission rates (27.0 versus. 6.9%, P < .001) and length of stay (7.7 versus. 5.6 days, P = .003) were greater in PJI + SIRS. At 2 years, reoperation (36.5 versus. 22.3%, P = .01) and mortality rates (17.5 versus. 8.8%, P = .03) were greater in PJI + SIRS. Risk factors included deficiency anemia (P = .001), blood loss anemia (P = .013), uncomplicated diabetes (P = .006), diabetes with complication (P = .001), electrolyte disorder (P < .00001), neurological disorder (P = .0001), paralysis (P = .026), renal failure (P = .005), and peptic ulcer disease (P = .004). Staphylococcus aureus more commonly speciated on tissue cultures in PJI + SIRS (P = .002). CONCLUSION The incidence of SIRS is 10% among patients who have PJI. Development of PJI + SIRS is associated with increased lengths of stay, ICU admissions, and 2-year reoperation and mortality rates. Identifying certain comorbidities can stratify patients' risk of developing PJI + SIRS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several reports have examined the association between preoperative function and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA), it is unclear whether the ability of the affected or non-affected side particularly impacts on outcomes. We aimed to investigate the association between affected and non-affected side ability and walking independence. METHODS We prospectively enrolled 721 consecutive patients who underwent THA. Preoperatively, quadriceps isometric strength (QIS) and one-leg standing time (OLST) were measured. The endpoints were walking independence within 3, 5, 7, 10, and 14 days postoperatively. The associations between preoperative abilities and outcomes were examined using multivariate Cox hazard model, and the area under the curves (AUCs) for outcomes were compared. RESULTS We analysed 540 patients after excluding patients who met the exclusion criteria. Both affected and non-affected QIS predicted walking independence within 3 (p = 0.006 and 0.001, respectively), 5, 7, 10, and 14 (both p < 0.001) days postoperatively. For OLST, only the affected side did not predict walking independence within 3 days postoperatively (p = 0.154 and 0.012, respectively), and both sides did at days 5 (p = 0.019 and <0.001, respectively), 7, 10, and 14 (both p < 0.001). The AUCs of the non-affected side ability for walking independence were significantly greater than those of the affected side on postoperative days 3 (0.66 vs. 0.73; p = 0.021) and 5 (0.67 vs. 0.71; p = 0.040), with no significant difference after day 7. CONCLUSIONS Both sides abilities were associated with walking independence after THA, but non-affected side was found to be particularly crucial for early walking independence.

Comparison of the effect of combined administration of intravenous and intra-articular tranexamic acid versus their administration alone in the management of blood loss in total knee arthroplasty: a prospective, multicenter study in Iran. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:974. [PMID: 38104059 PMCID: PMC10724898 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-07089-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/02/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with significant blood loss. Antifibrinolytic agents such as tranexamic acid (TXA) are widely used to manage blood loss during TKA. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of three different administration approaches of TXA in TKA. METHODS In a prospective, multicenter study, 285 patients with end-stage osteoarthritis who underwent TKA between 2020 and 2022 in three orthopedic surgery centers were included in the study. To manage bleeding during TKA, one of the three methods of intravenous administration (IV), intra-articular injection (IA), and combination administration of TXA was performed for the patients. Postoperative blood loss was calculated using blood volume and change in hemoglobin level from preoperative measurement to postoperative day 3. RESULTS The mean baseline Hemoglobin (Hb) was not significantly different between the three study groups (p > 0.05). The mean postoperative Hb of 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h after the surgery was not significantly different between the three stud groups (p > 0.05). The mean intraoperative blood loss in the combined TXA group was significantly lower compared to the IV and IA groups (0.025). The number of blood transfusions in the three study groups was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). No side effect was recorded in any group, as well. CONCLUSION Blood loss in the combination TXA group was significantly less than in the other two groups. Combination TXA can help reduce blood loss after TKA surgery.

Abstract
Avascular necrosis (AVN), characterised by compromised blood supply leading to bone necrosis, poses a significant challenge in orthopaedic and rheumatologic practice. This review comprehensively examines early AVN treatment strategies, including aetiology and risk factors, clinical presentation, conservative and surgical approaches, emerging therapies, and rehabilitation. Key findings underscore the importance of early detection, personalised treatment plans, and a multidisciplinary approach involving orthopaedic specialists, rheumatologists, and physical therapists. The implications for clinical practice emphasise individualised care, staying abreast of emerging therapies, and patient education. Recommendations for future management strategies highlight the need for imaging technology advancements, regenerative therapies integration, and ongoing research into genetic and molecular pathways. As the field continues to evolve, translating research findings into clinical practice holds promise for improving outcomes and enhancing the overall quality of life for individuals affected by AVN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With continued declines in reimbursement for total joint arthroplasty, health systems have explored implant cost containment measures to generate sustainable margins. This review evaluated how implementation of (1) implant price control programs, (2) vendor purchasing agreements, and (3) bundled payment models affected implant costs and physician autonomy in implant selection. METHODS PubMed, EBSCOhost, and Google Scholar were searched to identify studies that evaluated the efficacy of total hip or total knee arthroplasty implant selection strategies. The review included publications between January 1, 2002, and October 17, 2022. The mean Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies score was 18.3 ± 1.8. RESULTS A total of 13 studies (32,197 patients) were included. All studies implementing implant price capitation programs found decreased implant costs, ranging 2.2 to 26.1% and increased utilization of premium implants. Most studies found bundled payments models reduced total joint arthroplasty implant costs with greatest reduction being 28.9%. Additionally, while absolute single vendor agreements had higher implant costs, preferred single vendor agreements had reduced implant costs. When given price constraints, surgeons tended to select more premium implants. CONCLUSION Alternative payment models that incorporated implant selection strategies saw reduced costs and surgeon utilization of premium implants. The study findings encourage further research on implant selection strategies, which must balance the goals of cost containment with physician autonomy and optimized patient care.

Abstract
Preoperative optimization programs for total joint arthroplasty identify and address risk factors to reduce postoperative complications, thereby improving patients' ability to be safe surgical candidates. This article introduces preoperative optimization programs and describes the role of orthopaedic nurse navigators. This foundation will be used to produce an article series with recommendations for optimization of several modifiable biopsychosocial factors. We consulted orthopaedic nurse navigators across the United States and conducted a literature review regarding preoperative optimization to establish the importance of nurse navigation in preoperative optimization. The responsibilities of nurse navigators, cited resources, and structure of preoperative optimization programs varied among institutions. Optimization programs relying on nurse navigators frequently demonstrated improved outcomes. Our discussions and literature review demonstrated the integral role of nurse navigators in preoperative optimization. We will discuss specific risk factors and how nurse navigators can manage them throughout this article series.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lumbar spinal fusion (LSF) and total hip arthroplasty (THA) are commonly performed in patients who have concomitant spine and hip pathology. While patients who have three or more levels fused during LSF have increased postoperative opioid consumption after undergoing THA, it is unknown whether the number of levels fused during LSF affects THA functional outcomes. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted at a tertiary academic center for patients who underwent LSF first and then had a primary THA performed with a minimum of one-year follow-up for the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Joint Replacement (HOOS-JR). Operative notes were reviewed to determine the number of levels fused during LSF. There were 105 patients who underwent one-level LSF, 55 patients underwent two-level LSF, and 48 patients underwent three-or-more-level LSF. No significant differences existed in age, race, body mass index, and comorbidities between the cohorts. RESULTS While preoperative HOOS-JR was similar among the three cohorts, patients who had three-or-more-level LSF had significantly lower HOOS-JR scores than patients who had two-level or one-level LSF (71.4 versus 82.4 versus 78.2; P = .010) and a lower delta HOOS-JR (27.2 versus 39.4 versus 35.9; P = .014). Patients who had three-or-more-level LSF had a significantly lower rate of achieving minimal clinically important difference (61.7% versus 87.2% versus 78.7%; P = .011) and the patient acceptable symptom state (37.5% versus 69.1% versus 59.0%; P = .004) for the HOOS-JR, compared to patients who had two-level or one-level LSF, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Surgeons should counsel patients who have had three-or-more-level LSF that they may have a lower rate of hip function improvement and symptom acceptability after THA, compared to patients who have had a less number of levels fused during LSF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the primary causes of pain and disability worldwide leading to patients having some of the worst health-related quality of life (QOL). The purpose of our study was to investigate the progression of the generic and disease-specific QOL of osteoarthritic patients going through total hip or knee replacement surgery and the factors that might alter the effect of surgery on QOL. METHODS A longitudinal study was performed based on data collected from 120 OA patients who filled in the short version of the WHO's generic measure of quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF) and the disease-specific Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) before and after surgery. RESULTS Domains related to physical health status showed relatively lower scores in patients before surgery. Patients reported a significant increase of QOL after surgery in the WHOQOL-BREF physical domain, especially if they were from the younger group (< 65 years, p = 0.022) or had a manual job (p = 0.008). Disease-specific QOL outcome results indicate that overall patients gained significantly better QOL in all domains of the WOMAC score. Patients with hip OA seemed to have the most benefit of their operation as they reported better outcome in WOMAC pain (p = 0.019), stiffness (p = 0.010), physical function domains (p = 0.011) and total score (p = 0.007) compared to knee OA patients. CONCLUSION There was a statistically significant improvement in all domains concerning physical functions in the study population. Patients also reported significant improvement in the social relationship domain, which indicates that OA itself as well as its management might have a profound effect on patients' life beyond the reduction of their pain.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis of the hip is a common condition that affects older adults. Total hip replacement is the end-stage treatment to relief pain and improve joint function. Little is known about the mechanical load distribution during the activity of bipedal stance, which is an important daily activity for older adults who need to rest more frequently. This study investigated the distribution of the hip and knee joint moments during bipedal stance in patients with unilateral hip osteoarthritis and how the distribution changed 1 year after total hip replacement. Kinematic and kinetic data from bipedal stance were recorded. External hip and knee adduction moments were calculated and load distribution over both limbs was calculated using the symmetry angle. Preoperatively, the non-affected limb carried 10% more body weight than the affected limb when standing on two legs. Moreover, the mean external hip and knee adduction moments of the non-affected limb were increased compared to the affected limb. At follow-up no significant differences were observed between the patients' limbs. Preoperative and postoperative changes in hip adduction moment were mainly explained by the combination of the vertical ground reaction force and the hip adduction angle. Stance width also explained changes in the hip and knee adduction moments of the affected leg. Furthermore, as with walking, bipedal standing also showed an asymmetric mechanical load distribution in patients with unilateral hip osteoarthritis. Overall, the findings suggest the need for preventive therapy concepts that focus not only on walking but also on optimizing stance towards a balanced load distribution of both legs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Obesity may increase the risk of adverse events after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Although body mass index (BMI) is commonly used in categorizing obesity, its accuracy is limited. Body fat percentage (BFP) might indicate adiposity status and predict arthroplasty-related outcomes better than BMI. We investigated whether BFP is predictive of TKA-related outcomes. METHODS In this secondary analysis, BFP was measured preoperatively from 294 participants of a randomized trial that investigated the effects of tourniquet and anesthesia methods on TKA. Data concerning in-hospital assessments and events were collected. Knee range of motion (ROM) was measured, the Brief Pain Inventory-short form and Oxford Knee Score questionnaires were used to collect data on patient-reported pain and function, and the 15-dimensional health-related questionnaire was used to assess quality of life preoperatively and 3 and 12 months postoperatively. The patients reported satisfaction to TKA 3 and 12 months postoperatively. Data concerning infectious and thromboembolic events within 90 postoperative days and revision surgery, manipulation under anesthesia, and mortality within 1 year were collected. A separate post hoc analysis was performed for 399 participants to assess the effects of BMI on the respective outcomes. RESULTS A 1-unit increase in BFP affected the ROM by -0.37° (95% confidence interval (CI) = -0.60 to -0.13) 12 months after surgery. BFP was not significantly associated with the operation time or adverse events. However, the number of most adverse events remained too low for adjusted analysis. A 1-unit increase in BMI increased the operation time by 0.57 min (95% CI = 0.10 to 1.04) and affected the ROM by -0.47° (95% CI = -0.74 to -0.20) 12 months postoperatively. Neither BFP nor BMI was significantly associated with acute pain, pain management, length of stay, or with pain, function, quality of life, or satisfaction to TKA at 12 months after surgery. CONCLUSIONS BFP seems to be a poor predictor of in-hospital results and of patient-reported outcomes 1 year after TKA. TWITTER HANDLE In this secondary analysis of a randomized trial, body fat percentage was poorly predictive of clinical outcomes during hospital stay and of patient-reported outcomes 1 year after TKA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There appears to be substantial variability in outcomes > 2 years following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) that is masked by whole group analyses. The goal of the study was to identify trajectories of pain and function outcomes up to 5 to 8 years post-TKA and to identify baseline factors that are associated with different trajectories of recovery. METHODS Baseline, 6-month, and 12-month pain and function data were collected in a previous study investigating predictors of outcome following primary TKA (n = 286), along with a variety of baseline predictor variables. The present study obtained pain and function data at 5 to 8 years following TKA in the same cohort (n = 201). Latent class linear mixed models were used to identify different classes of pain and functional trajectories over time. The extent to which differences across latent classes were explained by baseline predictor variables was determined. RESULTS Three classes of pain and two classes of function trajectory were identified. While most patients (84% to 93%) followed a trajectory that showed an initial rapid gain following surgery that was sustained through 5 to 8 years, both pain and function included at least one trajectory class that showed a meaningful change after 12 months. No predictor variables were significantly associated with either the pain or function classes. CONCLUSIONS Most patients follow a traditional trajectory of recovery in knee pain and function over 5 to 8 years. However, alternative trajectories are observed in an important minority of patients such that knee pain and function at 12 months after surgery does not always reflect outcomes at 5 to 8 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This cross-sectional survey aimed to evaluate the oral health behaviour of patients prior to endoprosthesis (EP), as well as the handling of oral health topics by German orthopaedic surgeons. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutive patients prior to EP answered a questionnaire regarding oral health behaviour, oral hygiene, oral complaints and information on the relationship between EP and oral health. Another questionnaire was digitally mailed to orthopaedic centres throughout Germany. This questionnaire included the importance of oral health for EP and issues on dental referrals/consultations prior to EP. RESULTS A total of 172 patients were included in the study, of whom 35.5% of patients reported that they were informed about oral health and EP. Half of the individuals reported regular professional tooth cleaning, and less than one-third (29.1%) reported of the performance of interdental cleaning. Information on oral health and EP was associated with regular professional tooth cleaning (yes: 59.8% vs. no: 35.6%, p = 0.01). A total of 221 orthopaedic clinics were included in the study, of which only a few had dental contact (14%), although the majority (92.8%) of the clinics were familiar with causal relationships between oral health and EP infections. Less than half of the centres reported of either verbal (48%) or written (43.9%) referrals for their patients to the dentist. University Medical Centres reported of more frequent dental contacts (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Prior to EP, patients exhibited deficits in oral health behaviour, and orthopaedic clinics exhibited a lack of dental collaboration. Improvements in interdisciplinary care, especially regarding practical concepts for patient referral and education on oral health, appear to be necessary.

Determining Factors Affecting the Achievement of the Minimal Clinically Important Difference and Patient Acceptable Symptom State. J Arthroplasty 2023; 38:293-299. [PMID: 35964857 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2022.08.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2022] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/07/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent attempts have been made to use preoperative patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) thresholds as prior authorization criteria based on the assumption that patients who have higher baseline scores are less likely to achieve the minimal clinically important difference (MCID). This study aimed to identify factors affecting the achievement of MCID and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) after total hip arthroplasty (THA), and to determine the overlap between the two outcomes. METHODS We identified 3,581 primary, unilateral THAs performed at a single practice in 2015-2019. PROMs including Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (HOOS-JR) and 12-item Short Form Health Survey were collected preoperatively and 1-year postoperatively. The likelihood of attaining PASS according to attainment of MCID was assessed. Multivariable regression was used to identify independent predictors of MCID and PASS. RESULTS In total, 79.8% achieved MCID and 73.6% achieved PASS for HOOS-JR. Approximately 1 in 7 patients who achieved MCID did not eventually achieve PASS. Worse preoperative HOOS-JR (odd ratio 0.933) was associated with MCID attainment. Better preoperative HOOS-JR (odd ratio 1.015) was associated with PASS attainment. Men, lower body mass index, better American Society of Anesthesiologists score, and better preoperative 12-item Short Form Health Survey mental score were predictors of MCID and PASS. Age, race, ethnicity, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and smoking status were not significant predictors. CONCLUSION Preoperative PROMs were associated with achieving MCID and PASS after THA, albeit in opposite directions. Clinicians should strive to help patients "feel better" and "feel good" after surgery. Preoperative PROMs should not solely be used to prioritize access to care.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:medicina59020236. [PMID: 36837438 PMCID: PMC9963242 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59020236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
Background and objectives: The introduction of novel techniques in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aiming to enhance outcomes and satisfaction of the procedure is constantly ongoing. In order to evidence a priority of one, we have conducted a randomized controlled trial with the aim of comparing patient-reported functional outcomes, radiographic outcomes and intraoperative measures between imageless (NAVIO and CORI), robotic-assisted (ra)- TKA (ra-TKA) and manual TKA (mTKA) for primary knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Materials and Methods: A total of 215 patients with the diagnosis of KOA of the knee were randomly assigned to one of the three groups: NAVIO (76 patients) or CORI (71 patients) robotic-assisted TKA, or manual technique (68 patients) TKA. The primary outcome (Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Study [KOOS]), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Range of motion (ROM), femoral component rotational alignment and the secondary outcomes (surgery time, blood loss, complications, and revision at 12 months after surgery) were compared between three groups. KOOS and VAS were collected at particular follow up visits from each patient individually and ROM in flexion and extension was assessed during the physical examination. Femoral component rotational alignment was measured on the CT scan performed postoperatively utilizing the Berger's method. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: Both the ra-TKA groups and mTKA group displayed significant improvements in the majority of the functional outcome scores at 12 months. Despite having more prominent surgery time (NAVIO: mean +44.5 min in comparison to mTKA and CORI: mean +38.5 min in comparison to mTKA), both NAVIO and CORI tend to achieve highly accurate femoral component rotational alignment with mean radiographic scores in NAVIO vs. CORI vs. mTKA of 1.48° vs. 1.33° vs. 3.15° and lower blood loss (NAVIO: 1.74; CORI: 1.51; mTKA: 2.32. Furthermore, the investigation revealed the significant difference in femoral component rotational alignment between mTKA-NAVIO and mTKA-CORI and significantly different KOOS scores in NAVIO vs. CORI vs. mTKA of 87.05 vs. 85.59 vs. 81.76. Furthermore, the KOOS analysis showed between group significant statistical differences, but did not reach minimal clinically significant difference. There were no differences in postoperative ROM and VAS. There were no differences in complications between groups. Conclusions: To achieve a successful TKA, the precise tool and individualised objective is of great importance. The results suggest satisfactory results after both ra-TKA methods and mTKA. Ra-TKA and mTKA stand for a safe and reliable treatment method for OA. Patients reported excellent alleviation in functional outcomes and the radiological results revealed that the better precision does not necessarily lead to a better outcome. Therefore, ra-TKA does not imply strong enough advantages in comparison to the manual method, especially in terms of cost-efficiency and surgical time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the cost effectiveness of allogeneic umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells with sodium hyaluronate (hUCB-MSC) compared with microfracture in patients with knee cartilage defects caused by osteoarthritis (OA) in South Korea. METHODS A partitioned survival model approach was taken consisting of five mutually exclusive health states: excellent, good, fair, poor, and death over a 20-year time horizon. Utility values were obtained from a randomized clinical trial. Cost data were extracted from a database provided by the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service, and the utilization of healthcare services was estimated from an expert panel of orthopedic surgeons using a structured questionnaire. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) in terms of quality-adjusted life-years (QALY) was calculated. Deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed. RESULTS In the base case, the incremental costs of US$14,410 for hUCB-MSC therapy along with its associated QALY gain of 0.857 resulted in an ICER of US$16,812 (₩18,790,773) per QALY (95% confidence interval [CI] US$13,408-US$20,828) when compared with microfracture treatment from a healthcare payer perspective. From a societal perspective, the ICER was US$268 (₩299,255) per QALY (95% CI -US$2915 to US$3784). When using a willingness-to-pay threshold of US$22,367/QALY, the probability of hUCB being cost effectiveness compared with microfracture was 99% from the healthcare payer perspective and 100% from the societal perspective. CONCLUSIONS The study demonstrated that hUCB-MSC therapy was cost effective compared with microfracture when treating patients with knee OA. These findings should inform health policy decision makers about considerations for cost-effective therapy for treating knee OA to ultimately enhance population health.

Abstract
With the increase in human lifespan and the aggravation of global aging, the incidence of osteoarthritis (OA) is increasing annually. To better manage and control the progression of OA, prompt diagnosis and treatment for early-stage OA are important. However, a sensitive diagnostic modality and therapy for early OA have not been well developed. The exosome is a class of extracellular vesicles containing bioactive substances, that can be delivered directly from original cells to neighboring cells to modulate cellular activities through intercellular communication. In recent years, exosomes have been considered important in the early diagnosis and treatment of OA. Synovial fluid exosome and its encapsulated substances, e.g., microRNA, lncRNA, and proteins, can not only distinguish OA stages but also prevent the progression of OA by directly targeting cartilage or indirectly modulating the immune microenvironment in the joints. In this mini-review, we include recent studies on the diagnostic and therapeutic modalities of exosomes and hope to provide a new direction for the early diagnosis and treatment of OA disease in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Time spent waiting for access to orthopaedic specialist health services has been suggested to result in increased pain in individuals with osteoarthritis (OA). We assessed whether time spent on an orthopaedic waiting list resulted in a detrimental effect on pain levels in patients with knee or hip OA. METHODS We searched Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE and EBSCOhost databases from inception until September 2021. Eligible articles included individuals with OA on an orthopaedic waitlist and not receiving active treatment, and reported pain measures at two or more time points. Random-effects meta-analysis was used to estimate the pooled effect of waiting time on pain levels. Meta-regression was used to determine predictors of effect size. RESULTS Thirty-three articles were included (n = 2,490 participants, 67 ± 3 years and 62% female). The range of waiting time was 2 weeks to 2 years (20.8 ± 18.8 weeks). There was no significant change in pain over time (effect size = 0.082, 95% CI = -0.009, 0.172), nor was the length of time associated with longitudinal changes in pain over time (β = 0.004, 95% CI = -0.005, 0.012). Body mass index was a significant predictor of pain (β = -0.043, 95% CI = -0.079, 0.006), whereas age and sex were not. CONCLUSIONS Pain remained stable for up to 1 year in patients with OA on an orthopaedic waitlist. Future research is required to understand whether pain increases in patients waiting longer than 1 year.

Preoperative Patient-Reported Outcome Measure Thresholds Should Not be Used for Indicating Total Knee Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2022.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While Medicare requires patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for many quality programs, some commercial insurers are requiring preoperative PROMs when determining eligibility for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Concerns exist that these data may be used to deny TKA to patients above a specific PROM score, but the optimal threshold is unknown. We aimed to evaluate TKA outcomes based on theoretical PROM thresholds. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 25,246 consecutive primary TKA patients from 2016 to 2019. Hypothesized preoperative knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score for joint replacement cutoffs of 40, 50, 60, and 70 points were used. Preoperative scores below each threshold were considered "approved" surgery. Preoperative scores above each threshold were considered "denied" surgery. In-hospital complications, 90-day readmissions, and discharge disposition were evaluated. One-year minimum clinically important difference (MCID) achievement was calculated using previously validated anchor-based methods. RESULTS For "denied" patients below thresholds 40, 50, 60, and 70 points, 1-year MCID achievement was 88.3%, 85.9%, 79.6%, and 77%, respectively. In-hospital complication rates for approved patients were 2.2%, 2.3%, 2.1%, and 2.1%, while 90-day readmission rates were 4.6%, 4.5%, 4.3%, and 4.3%, respectively. Approved patients had higher MCID achievement rates (P < .001) for all thresholds but higher nonhome discharge rates than denied patients for thresholds 40 (P < .001), 50 (P = .002), and 60 (P = .024). Approved and denied patients had similar in-hospital complication and 90-day readmission rates. CONCLUSION Most patients achieved MCID at all theoretical PROMs thresholds with low complication and readmission rates. Setting preoperative PROM thresholds for TKA eligibility can help optimize patient improvement, but such a policy can create access to care barriers for some patients who would otherwise benefit from a TKA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While Medicare requires patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for many quality programs, some commercial insurers have begun requiring preoperative PROMs when determining patient eligibility for total hip arthroplasty (THA). Concerns exist these data may be used to deny THA to patients above a specific PROM score, but the optimal threshold is unknown. We aimed to evaluate outcomes following THA based on theoretical PROM thresholds. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 18,006 consecutive primary THA patients from 2016-2019. Hypothesized preoperative Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement (HOOS-JR) cutoffs of 40, 50, 60, and 70 points were used. Preoperative scores below each threshold were considered "approved" surgery. Preoperative scores above each threshold were considered "denied" surgery. In-hospital complications, 90-day readmissions, and discharge disposition were evaluated. HOOS-JR scores were collected preoperatively and 1-year postoperatively. Minimum clinically important difference (MCID) achievement was calculated using previously validated anchor-based methods. RESULTS Using preoperative HOOS-JR thresholds of 40, 50, 60, and 70 points, the percentage of patients who would have been denied surgery was 70.4%, 43.2%, 20.3%, and 8.3%, respectively. For these denied patients, 1-year MCID achievement was 75.9%, 69.0%, 59.1%, and 42.1%, respectively. In-hospital complication rates for approved patients were 3.3%, 3.0%, 2.8%, and 2.7%, while 90-day readmission rates were 5.1%, 4.4%, 4.2%, and 4.1%, respectively. Approved patients had higher MCID achievement (P < .001) but higher nonhome discharge (P = .01) and 90-day readmissions rates (P = .036) than denied patients. CONCLUSION Most patients achieved MCID at all theoretical PROM thresholds with low complication and readmission rates. Setting preoperative PROM thresholds for THA eligibility did not guarantee clinically successful outcomes.

Abstract
Patient counselling is a key function in nursing. High-quality counselling promotes adherence to treatment and reduces complications. The purpose of the study was to describe the quality of counselling experienced by total knee arthroplasty patients following surgery. The study was a descriptive cross-sectional study. The data were collected from patients following total knee arthroplasty (N = 60) in 2016 with a modified Quality of Counselling Instrument, and analysed using statistical methods. Over half of the patients (58%) were women and the mean age was 68 years (range 49-84). Over a quarter of patients (28.9%) lived alone, and about two-thirds were overweight (42.1%), or obese (31.6%). After surgery, many patients (88%) experienced moderate pain. Half of patients (52.6%) received a good quality of counselling for the disease and its treatment, and counselling for recovery from treatment (81.6%) was good. Most patients (92.1%) received satisfactory counselling about physical activity. There was a correlation between the disease and its treatment counselling and quality of life (r = -0.553, p = 0.003) and pain (r = -0657, p = 0.000). Interaction during counselling was good (97.4%) and it was implemented in a patient-centred way (89.5%). High-quality counselling implemented in a patient-centred manner can play a part in reducing pain and increasing patients' quality of life.

Abstract
Purpose The mechanisms underlying chronic postsurgical pain after joint replacement (JR) are complex, and it has been suggested that chronic postsurgical pain can develop as a result of inadequate acute pain management. Few studies have addressed acute pain after JR using specific animal models. This study aimed to develop a novel JR model focused on postsurgical pain assessment and the time course of pain recovery. Materials and Methods Rats were allocated to the following three groups: sham (joint exposure), joint destruction (JD; resection of the femoral head), and JR (femoral head replacement using an originally developed implant). The time course of postsurgical pain behavior was measured using a dynamic weight-bearing apparatus, along with radiological assessments. The expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide-immunoreactive (CGRP-IR) neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) was evaluated by immunohistochemistry on days 28 and 42. Results The ratio of weight-bearing distribution in the JR group gradually recovered from day 14 and reached the same level as that in the sham group on day 42, which was significantly greater than that in the JD group after day 7 (p<0.05). Radiologically, no significant issues were found, except for transient central migration of the implant in the JR group. The percentage of CGRP-IR DRG neurons in the JR group was significantly lower than that in the JD group on day 28 (mean, 37.4 vs 58.1%, p<0.05) and day 42 (mean, 32.3 vs 50.0%, p<0.05). Conclusion Our novel JR model presented acute postsurgical pain behavior that was successfully recovered to the baseline level at day 42 after surgery. Difference of the pain manifestation between the JR and JD groups could be supported by the expression of CGRP-IR in DRG neurons. This model is the first step toward understanding detailed mechanisms of post-JR pain.

[PMID: 35436528 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2022.04.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2022] [Revised: 04/06/2022] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of preoperative patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) thresholds for patient selection in arthroplasty care has been questioned recently. This study aimed to identify factors affecting achievement of the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and determine the overlap between the two outcomes. METHODS We identified 1,239 primary, unilateral TKAs performed at a single institution in 2015-2019. PROMs including the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS-JR) and 12-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) were collected preoperatively and 1-year postoperatively. The likelihood of attaining PASS as per attainment of MCID was assessed. A multivariable regression was used to identify predictors of MCID and PASS. RESULTS In total, 71.3% achieved MCID and 75.5% achieved PASS for KOOS-JR. Only 7.7% achieved MCID but not PASS, whereas almost twice this number did not achieve MCID but did achieve PASS (11.9%). Poorer preoperative KOOS-JR (OR 0.925), better SF-12 physical (OR 1.025), and mental (OR 1.027) were associated with MCID attainment. In contrast, better preoperative KOOS-JR (OR 1.030) and SF-12 mental (OR 1.025) were associated with PASS attainment. Age, gender, race, ethnicity, body mass index, Charlson index, American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, and smoking status were not significant predictors. CONCLUSION Preoperative PROMs were associated with achieving MCID and PASS after TKA, albeit some positively and some negatively. In the era of value-based care, clinicians should not only strive to help patients "feel better" but also ensure that patients "feel good" after surgery. This study does not support the use of PROMs in prioritizing access to care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) domains for sleep disturbance, anxiety, and dyspnea have been under-reported for total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The aims of this study were to report postoperative differences for these domains based on TJA location and chronic pain state. We also investigated whether these domains were associated with physical function and pain interference outcomes. METHODS This was a retrospective, observational study of patients who underwent hip, knee, or shoulder TJA (primary and revision surgeries) at a single academic tertiary referral center. A subset of these patients completed an email-based survey for chronic pain grade (Chronic Pain Grade Scale-Revised) and sleep disturbance, anxiety, dyspnea, physical function, and pain interference (PROMIS short forms). Pre-operative and operative data were extracted from the electronic health record. Data analysis investigated PROMIS domains for differences in TJA location and chronic pain grade. Hierarchical linear regression determined associations of these domains with physical function and pain interference. RESULTS A total of 2638 individuals provided informed consent and completed the email survey. In the ANOVA models for sleep disturbance, anxiety, and dyspnea, there was no location by chronic pain grade interaction (p > 0.05) and no difference based on TJA location (p > 0.05). There were differences for chronic pain grade (p < 0.01). The poorest postoperative outcome score for each domain was associated with high impact chronic pain. Furthermore, sleep disturbance and dyspnea had the strongest associations with physical function and pain interference (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Sleep disturbance, anxiety, and dyspnea did not vary based on TJA location, but were associated with postoperative chronic pain grade. Sleep disturbance and dyspnea were strongly associated with commonly reported outcomes of physical function and pain interference. These findings provide guidance for those interested in expanding TJA outcome assessment to include sleep disturbance, anxiety, and/or dyspnea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ankylosing spondylitis at total hip arthroplasty (THA) has significant hip stiffness with flexion deformity, restricted mobility, and function. Range of movement (ROM) improvement with good functional outcome is seen following THA in these hips. The modified Hardinge approach without abductor compromise is helpful in these stiff hips with associated flexion deformity.
AIM To assess improvement in ROM and functional outcomes with a modified lateral approach THA in ankylosing spondylitis with stiff hips.
METHODS A total of 69 hips that underwent THA with a modified Hardinge approach in 40 patients were evaluated at a mean follow-up of 38.33 mo. All individuals ambulated with weight-bearing as tolerated and ROM exercises from the 1st postoperative day. Modified Harris hip score and ROM were assessed during follow-up. Quality of life assessments using the 36-item and 12-item short form health surveys were done along with clinical and functional outcomes at follow-up. SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis. The correlation of ROM and functional score change was performed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient.
RESULTS Sixty-nine hips with a significant decrease in ROM preoperatively with 32 clinically fused hips showed significant improvement in flexion range. The mean flexion in 69 hips improved from 29.35 ± 31.38 degrees to 102.17 ± 10.48 degrees. The mean difference of 72.82 with a P value < 0.0001 was significant. In total, 45 out of 69 hips had flexion deformity, with 13 hips having a deformity above 30 degrees. The flexion during the follow-up was below 90 degrees in 3 hips. Eleven hips had flexion of 90 degrees at follow-up, while the remaining 55 hips had flexion above 100 degrees. Modified Harris hip score improved from 17.03 ± 6.02 to 90.66 ± 7.23 (P value < 0.0001). The 36-item short form health survey at the follow-up indicated health status in 40 patients as excellent in 11, very good in 20, good in 5, fair in 3, and poor in 1. The mean mental health score was 84.10 ± 11.58. Pain relief was good in all 69 hips. Altogether, 28/40 patients (70%) had no pain, 9 patients (22%) had occasional pain, and 3 patients (8%) had mild to moderate pain with unusual activity. Heterotopic ossification was seen in 21 hips with Brooker class 1 in 14 hips.
CONCLUSION Modified Hardinge approach THA in ankylosing spondylitis with stiff hips with flexion deformity significantly improved ROM, Harris hip score, and quality of life indicated by the 36-item and 12-item short form health surveys.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is frequently used in the treatment of end-stage gonarthrosis, and the patient satisfaction rate varies. This study aimed to reveal the change in mid-term patient satisfaction results and functional scores of patients with low early postoperative satisfaction scores. MATERIAL AND METHODS We included 163 patients who underwent total knee prosthesis between September 2017 and February 2018. Among these patients, early (6 months) and mid-term (24 months) satisfaction and functional results of 34 patients with low satisfaction scores (Likert evaluations 1, 2, and 3) were evaluated. We assessed early-term functional results and satisfaction rates, mid-term analysis of patients who were not satisfied in the early period, and the relationship between functional scores and satisfaction. RESULTS The Likert score was 4 or 5 in 124 (80%) of 158 patients, and early dissatisfaction was detected in 34 patients (20%). In the early-period dissatisfied group, satisfaction scores 6 months after surgery were 1.9±1.1 (1-3) and 4.2±1 (3-5) 24 months after surgery. A statistically significant difference was observed between the dissatisfied group's early and mid-term KSS and KS values. A correlation was observed between satisfaction scores and KS and KSS scores (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Patients who do not have mechanical problems with total knee arthroplasty but are not satisfied with the surgery in the early period can be satisfied over time after regular follow-up, appropriate communication and information, and effective rehabilitation.

Abstract
Objective We aimed to report the most current data on the prevalence, incidence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) associated with osteoarthritis (OA) for the 21 countries and territories located in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region from 1990 to 2019 by age, sex, cause, and sociodemographic index (SDI). Methods Publicly available data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study were used to report the OA-related burden. Estimates are reported as counts and age-standardized rates, along with their corresponding 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs). Results In 2019, the age-standardized prevalence of OA in MENA was 5,342.8 per 100,000 (95% UI: 4,815.9–5,907.8), which is 9.3% higher than in 1990 (8.1–10.5%). Similarly, the age-standardized annual incidence of OA per 100,000 was 430.4 (382.2–481.9), demonstrating a 9.4% increase since 1990 (8.3–10.5). OA was the cause of 185.4 (92.8–370.2) age-standardized YLDs per 100,000 in 2019, which was 10% higher than in 1990 (8.7–11.4). Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iran had the highest OA burden in MENA, while Yemen, Afghanistan, and Sudan had the lowest burden. In all MENA countries, OA affected more women than men, had an increasing burden with increased age, and had the highest impact on the knee, hip, and hand joints, respectively. OA was also positively associated with the SDI. Conclusion The burden of OA increased over 1990–2019 in the MENA region. The study emphasizes the importance of early preventative approaches in order to control any future health, economic, and quality of life crises imposed by OA in this region.

Abstract
Hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasty are among the most frequently performed orthopaedic procedures in the United States. High impact and bothersome chronic pain rates following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) are unknown; as are factors that predict these chronic pain outcomes. This retrospective observational study included individuals that had a TJA from January 2014 to January 2020 (n = 2,638). Pre-operative and clinical encounter information was extracted from the electronic health record and chronic pain state was determined by email survey. Predictor variables included TJA location, number of surgeries, comorbidities, tobacco use, BMI, and pre-operative pain intensity. Primary outcomes were high impact and bothersome chronic pain. Rates of high impact pain (95% CI) were comparable for knee (9.8-13.3%), hip (8.3-11.8%) and shoulder (7.6-16.3%). Increased risk of high impact pain included non-white race, two or more comorbidities, age less than 65 years, pre-operative pain scores 5/10 or higher, knee arthroplasty, and post-operative survey completion 24 months or less. Rates of bothersome chronic pain (95% CI) were also comparable for knee (24.9-29.9%) and hip (21.3-26.3%) arthroplasty; but higher for shoulder (26.9-39.6%). Increased risk of bothersome chronic pain included non-white race, shoulder arthroplasty, knee arthroplasty, current or past tobacco use, and being female. PERSPECTIVE: In this cohort more than 1/3rd of individuals reported high impact or bothersome chronic pain following TJA. Non-white race and knee arthroplasty were the only two variables associated with both chronic pain outcomes.

Abstract
Arthroplasty in the elderly may present with acute or late-onset complications unrelated to an implanted arthroplasty joint. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation of an acute onset complication in the immediate post-arthroplasty scenario presents safety concerns. An arthroplasty surgeon's dilemma relates to the loosening, heating, or migration of implanted hip or knee joints. We present a representational case scenario for discussion. A hip arthroplasty patient presenting with hemiplegia in the immediate postoperative period necessitated an MRI evaluation for the brain with an additional angiogram. A knee arthroplasty patient presenting with lower limb weakness in the immediate postoperative period necessitated an MRI evaluation of the brain. Loosening of surgical metallic clips used for wound closure and the instability or loosening of recently implanted hip and knee joints pose significant safety concerns for the arthroplasty surgeon. The confirmatory diagnosis of the secondary site complication in the acute post-arthroplasty perioperative period, however, allowed the allied super-specialist to plan the management protocol. A review of the literature suggests that the use of nonferromagnetic elements in implanted joints with the use of cement or the press-fit method of implantation during arthroplasty has high safety margins. The staples used for wound closure have significant strength to hold the wound without any disruption or dehiscence during the MRI imaging. The metallic artifacts associated with an implanted joint do not interfere in the evaluation of the secondary site MRI. MRI can be safely done in a well-fixed joint of non-ferromagnetic elements. The review of literature also suggests that MRI can be done even in the presence of skin staples for the assessment of an acute secondary site complication in a post-arthroplasty patient. The risk-to-benefit ratio though needs to be applied for imaging a secondary site.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is an irreversible degenerative condition causing bone deformation in the joints and articular cartilage degeneration with chronic pain and impaired movement. Adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) or crushed adipose tissue injection into the joint cavity reportedly improve knee function and symptoms, including pain. Stem cell spheroids may be promising treatment options due to their anti-inflammatory and enhanced tissue regeneration/repair effects. Herein, to form human ADSC spheroids, we used first SphereRing® (Fukoku Co., Ltd., Ageo, Japan), a newly developed rotating donut-shaped tube and determined their characteristics by DNA microarray of mRNA analysis. The variable gene expression cluster was then identified and validated by RT-PCR. Gene expression fluctuations were observed, such as COL15A1 and ANGPTL2, related to vascular endothelial cells and angiogenesis, and TNC, involved in tissue formation. In addition, multiplex cytokine analysis in the medium revealed significant cytokines and growth factors production increase of IL-6, IL-10, etc. However, ADSC administration into the joint cavity involves their contact with the synovial fluid (SF). Therefore, we examined how SF collected from OA patient joint cavities affect 2D-culture ADSCs and ADSC spheroids and observed SF induced cell death. ADSC spheroids could become promising OA treatment options, although studying the administration methods and consider their interaction with SF is essential.

Abstract
Background: Orthopedic surgeries can rehabilitate injuries and at the same time improve the patients’ quality of life. The study aimed to assess patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQOL) six months after an orthopedic surgery with implant placement. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study with the use of a structured questionnaire among 103 patients was conducted. The 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) questionnaire was used to evaluate patients’ quality of life. Results:According to the findings of the multivariate linear regression analysis, low age, marital status (married in comparison to unmarried/ divorcees/widows), reduced intensity of the pain, and low educational attainment were associated with a better quality of life. Furthermore, the patients who were living with another person and the patients who underwent surgery on a part of the body other than the hip presented better quality of life. The results of the multivariate analysis explained 33%-67% of the variance of the SF-36 HRQOL. Conclusion: Measuring quality of life is a valuable asset that helps to reveal the frail patient groups, in which health professionals will prioritize their care and the state in turn will design primary care services to meet their needs after discharge from the hospital.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare patients' self-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL) before and after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and determine factors contributing to any heterogeneity in HRQoL. PATIENTS AND METHODS This prospective multicenter observational study included 404 patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent TKA between April 1, 2019 and December 30, 2019 and whose HRQoL was assessed preoperatively and 7 days and 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Sociodemographic characteristics were assessed using a General Information Questionnaire, disability using the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS-PS), resting pain using the visual analogue scale (Pain-VAS), and HRQoL using the European Quality of Life Five Dimension Five Level (EQ-5D-5L) scale. The growth mixture model was used to identify group heterogeneity in the developmental trajectories of KOOS-PS, Pain-VAS, and EQ5D5L. Logistic regression was used to explore the factors influencing the developmental trajectories of factors affecting the developmental trajectory of HRQoL. RESULTS The mean EQ-5D-5L score improved from 0.69 preoperatively to 0.90 at 6 months postoperatively. Longitudinal heterogeneity in HRQoL was observed in patients during recovery: 1) patients with a small and slow improvement in HRQoL and 2) patients who showed marked and rapid improvement in HRQoL. The main characteristics of the latter group were decreasing VAS pain scores, a monthly family income >2000 CNY (100 CNY equals approximately 14.9 USD), exercising for <30 min daily, and better knee function at baseline. Baseline knee function and change in knee function were significantly associated with the percentage change in HRQoL. CONCLUSION HRQoL improved considerably after TKA. However, there was heterogeneity in the changes in HRQoL depending on patients' socioeconomic status, exercise, and baseline knee function. Dynamic tracking of the HRQoL of TKA patients and timely provision of rehabilitation guidance will promote continuous improvement of the HRQoL of TKA patients.

Abstract
Patient engagement is a comprehensive approach to health care where the physician
inspires confidence in the patient to be involved in their own care. Most
research studies of patient engagement in total joint arthroplasty (TJA) have
come in the past 5 years (2015-2020), with no reviews investigating the
different patient engagement methods in TJA. The primary purpose of this review
is to examine patient engagement methods in TJA. The search identified 31
studies aimed at patient engagement methods in TJA. Based on our review, the
conclusions therein strongly suggest that patient engagement methods in TJA
demonstrate benefits throughout care delivery through tools focused on promoting
involvement in decision making and accessible care delivery (eg, virtual
rehabilitation, remote monitoring). Future work should understand the influence
of social determinants on patient involvement in care, and overall cost (or
savings) of engagement methods to patients and society.
