Brake response time before and after total knee arthroplasty: a prospective cohort study
BACKGROUND Although the numbers of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are increasing, there is only a small number of studies investigating driving safety after TKA. The parameter 'Brake Response Time (BRT)' is one of the most important criteria for driving safety and was therefore chosen for investigation.The present study was conducted to test the hypotheses that patients with right- or left-sided...
متن کاملSensori-motor adaptation to knee osteoarthritis during stepping-down before and after total knee replacement
BACKGROUND Stepping-down is preceded by a shift of the center of mass towards the supporting side and forward. The ability to control both balance and lower limb movement was investigated in knee osteoarthritis patients before and after surgery. It was hypothesized that pain rather than knee joint mobility affects the coordination between balance and movement control. METHODS The experiment w...
متن کاملCoronal plane stability before and after total knee arthroplasty.
The success of total knee arthroplasty depends in part on proper soft tissue management to achieve a stable joint. It is unknown to what degree total knee arthroplasty changes joint stability. We used a surgical navigation system to intraoperatively measure joint stability in 24 patients under going primary total knee arthroplasty to address two questions: (1) Is the total arc of varus-valgus m...
متن کاملWalking and Stair Descent Following Minimally Invasive Total Knee Arthroplasty
Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a surgery commonly used to relieve the pain caused by osteoarthritis at the knee joint. Previous studies have shown patients with degenerative joint disease walk more slowly than normal subjects due to decreases in stride length and cadence (Stauffer et al. 1977). Falls on stairs are a leading cause of injury in older adults (Starzell, et al., 2000...
متن کاملFunctional Outcome Study in Total Knee Arthroplasty
Objective: The aim of this study was to validate the well-recognized outcome measure instruments (Medical Outcome Study Short Form-SF-36, Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index-WOMAC, McMaster Toronto Arthritis Patient Preference Disability Questionnaire-MACTAR) for patients who had undergone total knee arthroplasty in Iran, with its cultural and ethnic differences and com...
