Definitions of poor outcome after total knee arthroplasty: an inventory review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A significant proportion of patients experiences poor response (i.e. no or little improvement) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) because of osteoarthritis. It is difficult to quantify the proportion of patients who experiences poor response to TKA, as different definitions of, and perspectives (clinician's and patient's) on poor response are being used. The aim of this study was therefore to review the literature and summarize definitions of poor response to TKA.

Methods

A systematic search was performed to identify and review studies that included dichotomous definitions of poor outcome after primary TKA. The type, amount and combination of domains (e.g. functioning), outcome measures, type of thresholds (absolute/relative, change/cut-off), values and moments of follow-up used in definitions were summarized.

Results

A total of 47 different dichotomous definitions of poor response to TKA were extracted from 2163 initially identified studies. Thirty-six definitions incorporated one domain, seven definitions comprised two domains and four definitions comprised three domains. Eight different domains were used in identified definitions: pain, function, physical functioning, quality of life (QoL), patient satisfaction, anxiety, depression and patient global assessment. The absolute cut-off value was the most common type of threshold, with large variety in value and timing of follow-up.

Conclusions

Our inventory review shows that definitions of poor response to TKA are heterogeneous. Our findings stresses the need for an unambiguous definition of poor response to draw conclusions about the prevalence of poor-responders to TKA across hospitals and countries, and to identify patients at risk.

Diabetes: a risk factor for poor functional outcome after total knee arthroplasty.

Project description:BackgroundTo assess the association of diabetes with postoperative limitation of activities of daily living (ADLs) after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methodology/principal findingsWe used the prospectively collected data from the Mayo Clinic Total Joint Registry to assess the association of diabetes and diabetes with complications with moderate-severe ADL limitation 2- and 5-years after primary TKA. Multivariable logistic regression with general estimating equations adjusted for preoperative ADL limitation, comorbidity and demographic and clinical covariates. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) are presented. 7,139 primary TKAs at 2-years and 4,234 at 5-years constituted the cohorts. In multivariable-adjusted analyses, diabetes was associated with higher odds of moderate-severe limitation at 2- and 5-years, 1.71 (95% CI: 1.26, 2.32; P?=?0.001) and 1.66 (95% CI: 1.13, 2.46; P?=?0.01). Respective ORs for patients with diabetes with complications were 2.73 (95% CI: 1.47, 5.07; P?=?0.001) and 2.73 (95% CI: 1.21, 6.15; P?=?0.016). Sensitivity analyses that adjusted for anxiety and depression or anxiety, depression and ipsilateral hip involvement showed minimal attenuation of magnitude of the association.Conclusions/significanceIn this large study of patients who underwent primary TKA, diabetes as well as its severity were independently associated with poorer functional outcome. Given the increasing rates of both diabetes as well as arthroplasty, more insight is needed into disease-related and treatment-related factors that underlie this higher risk of ADL limitation in patients with diabetes. Poor functional outcomes may be preventable by modifying the control of diabetes and associated comorbidity in pre- and post-arthroplasty periods.

Outcome reporting patterns in total knee arthroplasty: A systematic review.

Project description:BackgroundTotal knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most effective ways to treat end-stage painful conditions of the knee. However, non-standardized reporting patterns can make quantitative analysis of patient outcomes difficult.MethodsA systematic review of the literature was performed using keywords "total knee arthroplasty" and "total knee replacement." Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) meeting the inclusion criteria were sorted and reviewed. Type of study, outcome measures used to report their results, and the actual results were recorded. Quantitative analysis was performed.ResultsA total of 233 RCTs were included. There was significant variability in the reporting of short term and long term outcomes in total knee arthroplasty. The most common treatment domains in order of decreasing frequency were objective knee function, subjective knee function, perioperative complications, and pain. Range of motion was the most common outcome metric reported in all the RCTs and also was the most common metric used to assess objective knee function. The most common patient reported outcome measure used to assess postoperative function was the Knee Society Score followed by Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score. The Visual Analog Scale was the most common measurement tool used to assess postoperative pain. Most studies assessed patient outcomes in three treatment domains. None reported outcomes in all seven domains.ConclusionThere is significant variability in outcome reporting patterns in TKA literature. Most studies do not track outcomes comprehensively, with a significant minority of the RCTs tracking outcomes in only one treatment domain.

Relationship between outcome scores and knee laxity following total knee arthroplasty: a systematic review.

Project description:Background and purpose - Instability following primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is, according to all national registries, one of the major failure mechanisms leading to revision surgery. However, the range of soft-tissue laxity that favors both pain relief and optimal knee function following TKA remains unclear. We reviewed current evidence on the relationship between instrumented knee laxity measured postoperatively and outcome scores following primary TKA. Patients and methods - We conducted a systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases to identify relevant studies, which were cross-referenced using Web of Science. Results - 14 eligible studies were identified; all were methodologically similar. Both sagittal and coronal laxity measurement were reported; 6 studies reported on measurement in both extension and flexion. In knee extension from 0° to 30° none of 11 studies could establish statistically significant association between laxity and outcome scores. In flexion from 60° to 90° 6 of 9 studies found statistically significant association. Favorable results were reported for posterior cruciate retaining (CR) knees with sagittal laxity between 5 and 10 mm at 75-80° and for knees with medial coronal laxity below 4° in 80-90° of flexion. Interpretation - In order to improve outcome following TKA careful measuring and adjusting of ligament laxity intraoperatively seems important. Future studies using newer outcome scores supplemented by performance-based scores may complement current evidence.

Predicting poor physical performance after total knee arthroplasty.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to develop a preliminary decision algorithm predicting functional performance outcomes to aid in the decision of when to undergo total knee arthroplasty (TKA). One hundred and nineteen patients undergoing primary unilateral TKA were evaluated before and 6 months after TKA. A regression tree analysis using a recursive partitioning function was performed with the Timed Up and Go (TUG) time, Six-Minute Walk (6MW) distance, and Stair Climbing Test (SCT) time as measured 6 months after TKA as the primary outcomes. Preoperative measures of functional performance, joint performance, anthropometrics, demographics, and self-reported status were evaluated as predictors of the primary outcomes 6 months after surgery. Individuals taking ≥10.1 s on the TUG and aged 72 years or older before surgery had the poorest performance on the TUG 6 months after surgery. Individuals walking <314 meters on the 6MW before surgery had the poorest performance on the 6MW test 6 months after surgery. Individuals taking ≥17 s to complete the SCT and scoring <40 on the SF-36 mental component score before surgery had the poorest performance on the SCT 6 months after surgery. Poorer performance preoperatively on the 6MW, SCT, and TUG, was related to poorer performance in the same measure after TKA. Age and decreased mental health were secondary predictors of poorer performance at 6 months on the TUG and SCT, respectively. These measures may help further develop models predicting thresholds for poor outcomes after TKA.

Expression data from total knee arthroplasty patients

Project description:Ischaemic preconditioning is a method of protecting tissue against ischaemia-reperfusion injury. It is an innate protective mechanism that increases a tissue's tolerance to prolonged ischaemia when it is first subjected to short burst of ischaemia and reperfusion. It is thought to provide this protection by increasing the tissue's tolerance to ischaemia, therby reducing oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis in the preconditioned tissue. We used microarrays to investigate the genomic response induced by ischaemic preconditioning in muscle biopsies taken from the operative leg of total knee arthroplasty patients in order to gain insight into the ischaemic preconditioning mechanism. Patients undergoing primary knee arthroplasty were randomised to control and treatment (ischaemic preconditioning) groups. Patients in the treatment group received a preconditioning stimulus immediately prior to surgery. The ischaemic preconditioning stimulus consisted of three five-minute periods of tourniquet insufflation on the lower operative limb, interrupted by five minute periods of reperfusion. All patients had a tourniquet applied to the lower limb after the administration of spinal anaesthesia, as per normal protocol for knee arthroplasty surgery. Muscle biopsies were taken from the quadriceps muscle of the operative knee at the immediate onset of surgery (T0) and at 1 hour into surgery (T1). Total RNA was extracted from biospies of four control and four treatment patients and hybridised to the Affymetrix Human U133 2.0 chip.

Hospital volume affects outcome after total knee arthroplasty.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The influence of hospital volume on the outcome of total knee joint replacement surgery is controversial. We evaluated nationwide data on the effect of hospital volume on length of stay, re-admission, revision, manipulation under anesthesia (MUA), and discharge disposition for total knee replacement (TKR) in Finland. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 59,696 TKRs for primary osteoarthritis performed between 1998 and 2010 were identified from the Finnish Hospital Discharge Register and the Finnish Arthroplasty Register. Hospitals were classified into 4 groups according to the number of primary and revision knee arthroplasties performed on an annual basis throughout the study period: 1-99 (group 1), 100-249 (group 2), 250-449 (group 3), and ? 450 (group 4). The association between hospital procedure volume and length of stay (LOS), length of uninterrupted institutional care (LUIC), re-admissions, revisions, MUA, and discharge disposition were analyzed. RESULTS: The greater the volume of the hospital, the shorter was the average LOS and LUIC. Smaller hospital volume was not unambiguously associated with increased revision, re-admission, or MUA rates. The smaller the annual hospital volume, the more often patients were discharged home. INTERPRETATION: LOS and LUIC ought to be shortened in lower-volume hospitals. There is potential for a reduction in length of stay in extended institutional care facilities.

Functional Outcome of Above-Knee Amputation After Infected Total Knee Arthroplasty

Project description:Background Periprosthetic joint infection is a serious complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Management usually involves irrigation and debridement, polyethylene liner exchange, one-stage revision, two-stage revision, knee arthrodesis, or ultimately above-knee amputation (AKA). We present our experience with 21 patients who underwent AKA as a sequela of unresolved infected TKA, highlighting their etiology and functional outcomes. Methods A retrospective chart review was performed for all cases of infected TKA treated with AKA at 1 institute from January 2007 to December 2020, with a minimum follow-up of 1 year. Patient demographics, Charlson comorbidity index, culture results, ambulation status, prosthesis fitting, and functional outcomes were collected. Short Form-36 and activities of daily living questionnaires were used for functional outcome assessment. Results Twenty-one patients were identified, 7 of whom were male (33.3%). Mean ± standard deviation follow-up was 5.7 ± 3.1 years (range, 1-11 years). Mean ± standard deviation age was 57.9 ± 10.7 years (range, 38-87 years), and the mean body mass index was 33.5 ± 6.4 kg/m2 (range, 25.4-46 kg/m2). Gram-positive organisms were identified in 15 cases (66.7%). Prosthesis fitting was successful in 17 patients (81%). Post-AKA ambulation was achieved in 12 patients (57.1%). The ambulating group showed higher Short Form-36 and activities of daily living scores when compared with patients who did not ambulate (60.2 vs 43.3, P = .041, and 67.2 vs 52.7, P = .029, respectively). Conclusions AKA should be considered solely as the final recourse for infected TKA. Despite the low-to-moderate patient-reported postoperative outcomes, prosthesis fitting and maintaining ambulation can improve postoperative functional outcomes.

Postoperative delirium is a risk factor for complications and poor outcome after total hip and knee arthroplasty.

Project description:Background and purpose - Improving health care and demographic change have resulted in a steady increase in geriatric patients undergoing total hip (THA) and knee (TKA) arthroplasty. Postoperative delirium (POD) is a frequent and severe complication after major surgery. Therefore, we analyzed the impact of POD on outcome after THA and TKA.Patients and methods - In a consecutive series of 10,140 patients who had undergone elective THA or TKA between 2011 and 2020, rates of reoperation within 90 days, readmission within 90 days, complications, and responder rate as defined by the OMERACT-OARSI criteria were compared between patients with and without POD. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the relationship between POD and other postoperative complications.Results - Patients with POD showed higher rates of reoperation (12% vs. 5%), readmission (15% vs. 5%), surgical complications (7% vs. 2%), non-surgical complications (8% vs. 4%), Clavien-Dindo IV° complications (10% vs. 2%) and transfusion (14% vs. 2%). POD led to lower responder rate (76% vs. 87%) 1 year after total joint replacement. All previous comparisons statistically significant. Multivariable logistic regression analyses revealed POD as an independent risk factor for reoperation (OR = 2; CI 1-3), readmission (OR = 2; CI 2-4) and Clavien-Dindo IV° complications (OR = 3; CI 2-5).Interpretation - POD is a serious problem in elective joint replacement. Affected patients suffer more complications and show poor patient-reported outcome 1 year postoperatively. Systematic prevention strategies and standardized therapy protocols are mandatory to avoid burden to patients and healthcare providers.

Core Outcome Measurement Instruments for Clinical Trials of Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review.

Project description:(1) Background: We have updated knowledge of the psychometric qualities of patient-reported outcome measures and, for the first time, systematically reviewed and compared the psychometric qualities of physical tests for patients with knee osteoarthritis who are undergoing total knee arthroplasty. This work was conducted to facilitate the choice of the most appropriate instruments to use in studies and clinical practice. (2) Methods: A search of medical databases up to December 2019 identified the studies and thus the instruments used. The quality of the measurement properties was assessed by the Bot et al. criteria. (3) Results: We identified 20 studies involving 25 instruments. Half of the instruments were questionnaires (n = 13). Among the condition-specific instruments, the Oxford knee score, Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score, and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis index had the highest overall scores. Concerning generic tools, the Medical Outcomes Study Short-Form 36 (SF-36) or SF-12 obtained the highest overall score. For patient-specific tools, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale ranked the highest. Some physical tests seemed robust in psychometric properties: 6-min Walk Test, five times Sit-To-Stand test, Timed Up and Go test strength testing of knee flexor/extensor by isometric or isokinetic dynamometer and Pressure Pain Threshold. (4) Conclusion: To make stronger recommendations, key areas such as reproducibility, responsiveness to clinical change, and minimal important change still need more rigorous evaluations. Some promising physical tests (e.g., actimetry) lack validation and require rigorous studies to be used as a core set of outcomes in future studies.
