[PMID: 38638652 PMCID: PMC11023346 DOI: 10.5704/moj.2403.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/20/2024] Open
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.

Özdemir M, Yaradılmış YU, Özdemir FE, Tarğal AS, Öztürk Ö, Altay M. Does Early-Period Patient Dissatisfaction Turn Into Satisfaction Over Time After Total Knee Replacement? MEDICAL SCIENCE MONITOR : INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL AND CLINICAL RESEARCH 2022; 28:e936792.

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.

Male Sex Is Associated with Higher Mortality and Increased Risk for Complications after Surgical Treatment of Proximal Humeral Fractures. J Clin Med 2021; 10:2500. [PMID: 34198778 PMCID: PMC8201359 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10112500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Revised: 05/27/2021] [Accepted: 06/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS The best surgical treatment of multi-fragmentary proximal humeral fractures in the elderly is a highly controversial topic. The aim of this study is to assess for sex-related differences regarding mortality and complications after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) and locking plate fixation (LPF). PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients from the largest German healthcare insurance (26.5 million policy holders) above the age of 65 years that were treated with LPF or RTSA after a multi-fragmentary proximal humerus fracture between January 2010 and September 2018 were included. Multivariable Cox regression models were used to assess the association of sex with overall survival, major adverse events and surgical complications. RESULTS A total of 8264 (15%) men and 45,707 (85%) women were followed up for a median time of 52 months. After 8 years, male patients showed significantly higher rates for death (65.8%; 95% CI 63.9-67.5% vs. 51.1%; 95% CI 50.3-51.9%; p < 0.001) and major adverse events (75.5%; 95% CI 73.8-77.1% vs. 61.7%; 95% CI 60.9-62.5%; p < 0.001). With regard to surgical complications, after adjustment of patient risk profiles, there were no differences between females and males after LPF (p > 0.05), whereas men showed a significantly increased risk after RTSA (HR 1.86; 95% CI 1.56-2.22; p < 0.001) with more revision surgeries performed (HR 1.76, 95% CI 1.46-2.12; p < 0.001) compared to women. CONCLUSION The male sex is an independent risk factor for death and major adverse events after both LPF and RTSA. An increased risk for surgical complications after RTSA suggests that male patients benefit more from LPF. Sex should be considered before making treatment decisions.

Health related quality of life in patients having total knee replacement and associations with symptoms, recovery, and patient education: A six month follow up study. Int J Orthop Trauma Nurs 2020; 42:100830. [PMID: 33518438 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijotn.2020.100830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2020] [Revised: 10/19/2020] [Accepted: 10/23/2020] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
AIM To describe the symptoms, recovery, patient education, and health related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients having total knee replacements at three time points and to detect experiences and situations that predict HRQOL six weeks and six months post-surgery. METHOD A prospective exploratory two-site study assessing 123 patients, while in hospital (T1), at six weeks (T2), and at six months (T3) post-discharge. HRQOL was measured using the SF-36v2 and symptoms were measured with the Hospital and Anxiety Scale. Two questions considered pain and two considered movement and tiredness while two questions addressed recovery and patient education. Linear regression models were used to calculate predictors of mental and physical HRQOL at T2 and T3. RESULTS HRQOL improved from T1 to T3. The main predictors of higher physical scores at T2 were; being older, fewer symptoms of depression and little distress related to movement. At T3 the main predictors were; having resumed work, finding patient education very useful, experiencing no pain in the last 24 h and fewer symptoms of depression. The main predictors of higher mental scores at T2 were fewer symptoms of anxiety and depression and little distress related to movement while at T3 these were fewer symptoms of anxiety and depression and experiencing no pain last 24 h. CONCLUSION Apart from pain, function and resumption of activities, the symptoms of anxiety and depression influence HRQOL. These symptoms should be assessed during the hospital stay.

Abstract
Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is an effective treatment for end-stage osteoarthritis, which aims to alleviate pain and improve function and mobility. Despite the remarkable success of TJA, complications can arise, leading to unplanned hospital readmission, implant failure, morbidity and mortality. Recently, there has been a growing interest in analysing sex-based differences in diseases and response to medical interventions. This review summaries evidence pertaining to the widening gap between men and women regarding the utilization and outcome of TJA surgery. Interactions between sex and patient-reported outcome, implant failure and medical complication are complex and often demonstrate conflicting results. Significantly, there is a global consensus that men are at a higher risk of developing prosthetic joint infection following joint arthroplasty. Guided by the literature, there is a clear need for standardized methods of collecting, analysing and reporting sex-specific data to improve outcomes for both men and women who undergo TJA.
