Joint kinematics following bi-compartmental knee replacement during daily life motor tasks
چکیده انگلیسی

In many cases knee osteoarthritis leads to total knee replacement surgery (TKR) even if the lateral compartment is not involved. More recently, a bicompartmental knee replacement system (BKR) (Journey Deuce, Smith & Nephew Inc., Memphis, TN, USA) has been developed that only replaces the medial tibiofemoral and the patellofemoral compartments, thus preserving both cruciate ligaments with its associated benefits. However information on the effect of BKR on in vivo knee joint kinematics is not widely available in the literature.Therefore, this study analyzed full three-dimensional knee joint kinematics in 10 postoperative BKR-subjects for a broad spectrum of relevant daily life activities: walking, walking followed by a cross-over or sidestep turn, step ascent and descent, mild squatting and chair rise. We analyzed to what extent normal knee motion is regained through comparison with their non-involved limb as well as a group of matched controls. Furthermore, coefficients of multiple correlation were calculated to assess the consistency of knee joint kinematics both within and between subject groups.This analysis demonstrated that, despite the presence of differences indicative for retention of pre-operative motion patterns and/or remaining compensations, knee joint kinematics in BKR limbs replicate, for a large range of daily-life motor tasks, the kinematics of the contra-lateral non-affected limbs and healthy controls to a similar extent as they are replicated within both these control groups.

► We analyze knee joint kinematics after bicompartmental knee replacement during 7 motor tasks. ► We compare with the joint function of matched controls and the unaffected contralateral limbs. ► The comparison reveals a certain retention of pre-op motion patterns and compensations. ► Nevertheless we find good overall agreement in joint function with both reference groups.
