One in five patients report chronic pain following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and are considered non-improvers. Psychological interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), combined with exercise education may contribute to reduced an improved function both for OA or after TKA surgery, but the evidence effectiveness of is scarce. This randomized controlled trial three arms will compare clinical patient internet-delivered CBT (iCBT), evaluated either a non-surgical treatment...
Objective To evaluate radiographic knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression, development of OA, patient-reported outcomes and muscle strength at 10-year follow-up after arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) or exercise therapy for degenerative meniscal tears. Methods Randomised controlled trial including 140 participants, with a tear no minimal OA changes. Participants were randomised to either APM 12 weeks (1:1 ratio). The primary outcome was progression assessed by the Osteoarthritis...
Objective To identify trajectories of patient-reported knee function over 5 years in patients with degenerative meniscal tears, and to explore whether baseline characteristics were associated sport recreational function. Design Prospective cohort study. Methods We conducted a secondary exploratory analysis the Odense-Oslo Meniscectomy Versus Exercise randomized controlled trial. Patient-reported was assessed Knee injury Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) at baseline, 3 months, 1 year, 2...
To evaluate muscle strength changes following partial meniscectomy or exercise therapy for degenerative meniscal tears and the relationship between baseline osteoarthritis progression.Secondary analysis of a randomized trial (n = 140 participants). Isokinetic quadriceps hamstrings (peak torque [Nm/kg] total work [J/kg]) were assessed at baseline, 3-month, 12-month, 5-year follow-up. Between-group differences analyzed using intent-to-treat linear mixed models. The progression...
To evaluate patient MRI results, demography and clinical outcome following transtibial repair of lateral medial meniscal posterior root tears.Patients treated with repairs tears from 2015 through 2018 performed pre- postoperative scans. Outcome measures were continuity/discontinuity the change in extrusion on MRI. Other outcomes KOOS, Lysholm score, Tegner activity scale Global Rate Change (GRoC) score for function pain at follow-up.Retrospective case-series.Of 41 patients, 36 attended...
Degenerative and traumatic meniscus injuries should be considered two completely different pathologies requiring treatment based on entirely principles. tears are part of the development osteoarthritis generally treated conservatively, whereas surgery for to help prevent osteoarthritis. In this article, we summarise which patients referred promptly an orthopaedic surgeon, a physiotherapist.
