Abstract

Background

Knee stiffness or limited range of motion (ROM) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may compromise patient function. Patients with stiffness are usually managed with manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) to improve ROM. However, the final ROM obtained is multifactorial and may depend on factors such as comorbidities, implant type, or the timing of MUA.

Questions/purposes

We asked whether diabetes mellitus, implant type, and the interval between TKA and MUA influenced post-MUA ROM.

Methods

From a group of 2462 patients with 3224 TKAs performed between 1999 and 2007 we retrospectively reviewed 96 patients with 119 TKAs (4.3%) who underwent MUA. We determined the presence of diabetes mellitus, implant type, and the interval between TKA and MUA.

Results

The average increase in ROM after MUA was 34°. Patients with diabetes mellitus experienced lower final ROM after MUA (87.5° versus 100.3°) as did patients with cruciate-retaining (CR) prostheses versus posterior-stabilized (92.3° versus 101.6°). The interval between TKA and MUA inversely correlated with final ROM with a decrease after 75 days.

Conclusions

Most patients experience improvements in ROM after MUA. Patients with diabetes mellitus or CR prostheses are at risk for lower final ROM after MUA. Manipulation within 75 days of TKA is associated with better ROM.

Knie-TEP: Kein Vorteil durch antibiotikahaltigen Knochenzement

29.05.2024 Periprothetische Infektionen Nachrichten

Zur Zementierung einer Knie-TEP wird in Deutschland zu über 98% Knochenzement verwendet, der mit einem Antibiotikum beladen ist. Ob er wirklich besser ist als Zement ohne Antibiotikum, kann laut Registerdaten bezweifelt werden.

Häusliche Gewalt in der orthopädischen Notaufnahme oft nicht erkannt

28.05.2024 Häusliche Gewalt Nachrichten

In der Notaufnahme wird die Chance, Opfer von häuslicher Gewalt zu identifizieren, von Orthopäden und Orthopädinnen offenbar zu wenig genutzt. Darauf deuten die Ergebnisse einer Fragebogenstudie an der Sahlgrenska-Universität in Schweden hin.

Fehlerkultur in der Medizin – Offenheit zählt!

28.05.2024 Fehlerkultur Podcast

Darüber reden und aus Fehlern lernen, sollte das Motto in der Medizin lauten. Und zwar nicht nur im Sinne der Patientensicherheit. Eine negative Fehlerkultur kann auch die Behandelnden ernsthaft krank machen, warnt Prof. Dr. Reinhard Strametz. Ein Plädoyer und ein Leitfaden für den offenen Umgang mit kritischen Ereignissen in Medizin und Pflege.
