General and Abdominal Obesity as Risk Factors for Late-Life Mobility Limitation After Total Knee or Hip Replacement for Osteoarthritis Among Women.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate associations of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and waist/hip ratio (WHR) with survival to age 85 years with mobility limitation or death before age 85 years among older women with total knee replacement (TKR) or total hip replacement (THR) for osteoarthritis (OA).

Methods

This was a prospective study of women (ages 65-79 years at baseline) from the Women's Health Initiative, recruited during 1993-1998 and followed through 2012. Women's Health Initiative data were linked to Medicare claims data to determine TKR (n = 1,867) and THR (n = 944) for OA. Women were followed for up to 18 years after undergoing THR or TKR to determine mobility status at age 85 years.

Results

Compared with normal-weight women, overweight, obese I, and obese II women with THR had significantly increased risk of survival to age 85 years with mobility limitation (P < 0.001 for linear trend), with the strongest risk among obese II women (odds ratio [OR] 4.37 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.96-9.74]). Obese II women with THR also had increased risk of death before age 85 years. Women with THR and WC >88 cm relative to ?88 cm had increased risk of survival to age 85 years with mobility limitation (OR 1.65 [95% CI 1.17-2.33]) but not death before age 85 years. High BMI, WC, and WHR were associated with significantly increased risk of late-life mobility limitation and death among women with TKR for OA.

Conclusion

Among older women who underwent THR or TKR for OA, baseline general and abdominal obesity were associated with increased risk of late-life mobility limitation.

Project description:Reduced external knee adduction moments in the second half of stance after total hip replacement have been reported in hip osteoarthritis patients. This reduction is thought to shift the load from the medial to the lateral knee compartment and as such increase the risk for knee osteoarthritis. The knee adduction moment is a surrogate for the load distribution between the medial and lateral compartments of the knee and not a valid measure for the tibiofemoral contact forces which are the result of externally applied forces and muscle forces. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the distribution of the tibiofemoral contact forces over the knee compartments in unilateral hip osteoarthritis patients 1 year after receiving a primary total hip replacement differs from healthy controls. Musculoskeletal modeling on gait was performed in OpenSim using the detailed knee model of Lerner et al. (2015) for 19 patients as well as for 15 healthy controls of similar age. Knee adduction moments were calculated by the inverse dynamics analysis, medial and lateral tibiofemoral contact forces with the joint reaction force analysis. Moments and contact forces of patients and controls were compared using Statistical Parametric Mapping two-sample t-tests. Knee adduction moments and medial tibiofemoral contact forces of both the ipsi- and contralateral leg were not significantly different compared to healthy controls. The contralateral leg showed 14% higher medial tibiofemoral contact forces compared to the ipsilateral (operated) leg during the second half of stance. During the first half of stance, the lateral tibiofemoral contact force of the contralateral leg was 39% lower and the ratio 32% lower compared to healthy controls. In contrast, during the second half of stance the forces were significantly higher (39 and 26%, respectively) compared to healthy controls. The higher ratio indicates a changed distribution whereas the increased lateral tibiofemoral contact forces indicate a higher lateral knee joint loading in the contralateral leg in OA patients after total hip replacement (THR). Musculoskeletal modeling using a detailed knee model can be useful to detect differences in the load distribution between the medial and lateral knee compartment which cannot be verified with the knee adduction moment.

Project description:BACKGROUND:To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of technology-assisted rehabilitation following total hip/knee replacement (THR/TKR). METHODS:Six electronic databases were searched without language or time restrictions for relevant studies: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro); from inception to November 7th, 2018. Two reviewers independently applied inclusion criteria to select eligible randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated the effectiveness of technology-based interventions, compared with usual care or no intervention for people undergoing THR/TKR. Two reviewers independently extracted trial details (e.g. patients' profile, intervention, outcomes, attrition and adverse events). Study methodological quality was assessed using the PEDro scale. Quality of evidence was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach. RESULTS:We identified 21 eligible studies assessing telerehabilitation, game- or web-based therapy. There were 17 studies (N?=?2188) in post-TKR rehabilitation and 4 studies (N?=?783) in post-THR rehabilitation. Compared to usual care, technology-based intervention was more effective in reducing pain (mean difference (MD): -?0.25; 95% confidence interval (CI): -?0.48, -?0.02; moderate evidence) and improving function measured with the timed up-and-go test (MD: -7.03; 95% CI: -?11.18, -?2.88) in people undergoing TKR. No between-group differences were observed in rates of hospital readmissions or treatment-related adverse events (AEs) in those studies. CONCLUSION:There is moderate-quality of evidence showed technology-assisted rehabilitation, in particular, telerehabilitation, results in a statistically significant improvement in pain; and low-quality of evidence for the improvement in functional mobility in people undergoing TKR. The effects were however too small to be clinically significant. For THR, there is very limited low-quality evidence shows no significant effects.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) is a frequently used patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) for assessment of hip disorders and treatment effects following hip surgery. The objective of the study was to translate and adapt the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) into Polish and to investigate the psychometric properties of the HOOS in patients with osteoarthritis undergoing total hip replacement (THR). MATERIALS AND METHODS:The Polish version of the HOOS was developed according to current guidelines. Patients completed the HOOS, Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36), the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain and the global perceived effect (GPE) scale. Psychometric properties including interpretability (floor/ceiling effects), internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha), test-retest reliability (intra-class correlation coefficient, ICC), convergent construct validity (a priori hypothesized Spearman's correlations between the HOOS subscales, the generic SF-36 measure and the VAS for pain) and responsiveness (effect size, association between the HOOS and GPE scores) were analyzed. RESULTS:The study included 157 patients (mean age 66.8?years, 54% women). Floor effects were found prior to THR for the HOOS subscales Sports and Recreation and Quality of Life. The Cronbach's alpha was over 0.7 for all subscales indicating satisfactory internal consistency. The test-retest reliability was good for the HOOS subscale Pain (0.82) and excellent for all other subscales with ICCs ranging from 0.91 to 0.96. The minimal detectable change ranged from 12.0 to 26.2 on an individual level and from 1.4 to 3.0 on a group level. Seven out of eight a priori hypotheses were confirmed indicating good construct validity. Responsiveness was high since the expected pattern of effect sizes in all subscales was found. CONCLUSIONS:The Polish version of the HOOS demonstrated good reliability, validity and responsiveness for use in patient groups having THR.
