Responsiveness To Change

BACKGROUND: Adaptation to Turkish language and validation studies of Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score – Physical Function Short Form (KOOS-PS) and Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score – Physical Function Short Form (HOOS-PS) were done previously but responsiveness to changes of these questionnaires could not be tested in these studies. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the responsiveness of the Turkish versions of the KOOS-PS and HOOS-PS in a patient group who underwent knee or hip joint arthroplasty operation. METHODS: Sixty-three patients who underwent total knee arthroplasties and sixteen patients who underwent total hip arthroplasties for primary osteoarthritis were included in this study. The preoperative and 3-month postoperative KOOS-PS, HOOS-PS, and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) Osteoarthritis Index hip and knee scores were collected from the hospital records, and the effect sizes (ESs) and standardized response means (SRMs) were calculated. RESULTS: The ESs and SRMs, respectively, were as follows: -1.954 and -2.156 for the KOOS-PS, -1.833 and -2.464 for the HOOS-PS, -4.848 and -4.210 for the WOMAC-knee, and -3.835 and -4.625 for the WOMAC-hip. CONCLUSIONS: The Turkish versions of the KOOS-PS and HOOS-PS exhibited strong responsiveness to change in the arthroplasty patients.

Background:Overweight is a major risk factor for the development and progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Weight loss for patients with knee OA has been associated with improvement in self-reported pain and function and is recommended by EULAR as part of the therapeutic management.Objectives:The aim of the study was to evaluate the relation between overweight and functional impairment in adults with knee OA.Methods:It was a prospective study conducted in a rheumatologic department over a 4 months period. Patients with symptomatic knee OA based on the ACR criteria, were included. A screening of body mass index (BMI) was carried out for all patients. It was categorized following the WHO classification into: normal (<25 kg/m2), overweight (25 to <30), obese (up to 30).Pain level was evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Function was assessed by the short form of the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS-PS) (KOOS-PS scores to 0 representing no difficulty and 100 representing extreme difficulty). The patients’ knee radiographies were graded according to Kellgren Lawrence criteria (KL). The patients were allocated in two groups; as grade I-II KL (Group 1) and grade III-IV KL (Group 2).Results:We included 143 patients with a mean age of 65.17± 10.7 years and 88.1% of women. Patients were from low socio-economic class in 30.8% of cases. Mean disease duration of the KOA was 5.4 years [3months-20 years] and mean BMI was 31.8±5.6kg/m2. Patients were with normal weight in 16.1%, overweight in 19.6% and obese in 64.3%.Knee OA was bilateral in 85.3% and other OA sites were associated in 37.8% of patients. Mean VAS pain of knee OA was 6.6±1.5 and KOOS-PS was 48.8±16.5/100. Concerning the radiographic damage; we found grade I-II (KL) in 22.6% and grade III-IV (KL) in 77.4%.High BMI (BMI≥25 kg/m2was not significantly associated with worse KOOS score (p=0.9), more pain (p=0.5) or an increasing severity of radiological knee osteoarthritis (p=0.14). Moreover, the level BMI was not associated with the presence of other OA sites (p=0.9) or a bilateral KOA (p=0.07).Conclusion:These data, from a subset of participants with symptomatic radiographic knee OA, demonstrate no correlation between obesity and pain, functional impairment and radiographic severity.Acknowledgments:noneDisclosure of Interests:None declared

Objective.To assess the reliability and clinically meaningful thresholds of intermittent and constant osteoarthritis pain (ICOAP) score, the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Physical function Short-form (KOOS-PS), the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Physical function Short-form (HOOS-PS), and the Quality of life subscales of HOOS/KOOS (HOOS-QOL/KOOS-QOL) in patients with knee or hip arthritis.Methods.One hundred and ninety-five patients (141 knee, 54 hip) seen at 2 orthopedic outpatient clinics with a diagnosis of knee or hip OA completed patient-reported questionnaires (ICOAP pain scale, KOOS-PS, HOOS-PS, KOOS-QOL, HOOS-QOL) at baseline and 2-week followup. Reliability was assessed using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). We calculated minimum clinically important difference (MCID) and moderate improvement in the subgroup that reported change in the status of their affected joint.Results.The reliability as assessed by ICC was as follows: ICOAP pain scale, 0.63 (0.48, 0.74) in patients with knee arthritis, and 0.86 (0.73, 0.93) for hip arthritis; KOOS-PS, 0.66 (0.52, 0.77); HOOS-PS, 0.82 (0.66, 0.91); KOOS-QOL, 0.79 (0.69, 0.86); and HOOS-QOL, 0.67 (0.42, 0.83). MCID and moderate improvement estimates in patients with knee arthritis were ICOAP pain scale, 18.5 and 26.7; KOOS-PS, 2.2 and 15.0; and KOOS-QOL, 8.0 and 15.6. A smaller sample in patients with hip arthritis precluded MCID and moderate improvement estimates.Conclusion.We found that ICOAP pain and KOOS-PS/HOOS-PS scales were reasonably reliable in patients with hip OA. Reliability of these scales was much lower in patients with knee arthritis. Thresholds for clinically meaningful change in pain or function on these scales were estimated for patients with knee arthritis.

Background: Chondral lesions are commonly encountered during arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM); however, it is unknown how these lesions affect postoperative outcomes. Purpose: The authors compared postoperative outcomes among patients with and without unstable chondral lesions 1 year after APM. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: The authors conducted a secondary analysis of data from the ChAMP (Chondral Lesions and Meniscus Procedures) randomized controlled trial. They compared the following outcomes for patients with unstable chondral lesions that were left in situ and observed (CL-noDeb) versus patients without unstable chondral lesions (NoCL) at 1 year after APM: Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, visual analog scale for pain, the Short Form Health Survey, range of motion, quadriceps circumference, and effusion. Multivariate linear regression was used to obtain mean differences (MDs) with corresponding 95% CIs adjusted for age, body mass index, and preoperative score (for postoperative scores). Results: Compared with the CL-noDeb group, the NoCL group had greater improvement in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index for pain (MD, 7.9, 95% CI: 2.7-13.1), stiffness (MD, 9.1, 95% CI: 1.9-16.3), and physical function (MD, 4.6, 95% CI: 0.1-9.0) and Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for pain (MD, 8.4, 95% CI: 2.7-14.0), function in sport and recreation (MD, 11, 95% CI: 3.0-19.1), and quality of life (MD, 10.4, 95% CI: 2.3-18.5). The NoCL group was less likely than the CL-noDeb group to have an effusion ( P = .02) 1 year after surgery. Conclusion: Patients undergoing APM without unstable chondral lesions had better outcomes than patients with unstable chondral lesions.

Resumo Objetivo O objetivo principal do presente estudo foi avaliar os resultados a longo prazo, incluindo a sobrevivência em Osteotomia Varizante Femoral Distal com Cunha de Abertura Lateral (OVFD-CAL) utilizando navegação computadorizada. O objetivo principal do presente estudo foi avaliar os resultados a longo prazo, incluindo a sobrevivência. Métodos Foi realizada uma análise retrospectiva dos dados coletados prospectivamente de pacientes com artrite do compartimento lateral submetidos a OVFD-CAL por navegação de dezembro de 2006 a novembro de 2012. As pontuações International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC, na sigla em inglês) e Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS, na sigla em inglês) foram analisadas para medição de resultados. Conversão para artroplastia durante o acompanhamento foi o ponto final. Resultados Um total de 19 OVFD-CAL foram realizados em 17 pacientes com média de idade de 46,6 ± 6,5 anos formaram a coorte do estudo. O alinhamento coronal foi corrigido a partir de uma média de 7,1° (2–11°) de valgo para uma média de 2,1° (0,5°–3°) de varo. As pontuações do IKDC melhoraram de uma média pré-operatória de 39 para 53 no acompanhamento de médio de longo prazo de 9,1 anos. Os escores do KOOS no acompanhamento a longo prazo foram: dor 71, sintomas 56, atividades da vida diária 82, esportes e recreação 59, qualidade de vida 43. A sobrevivência do OVFD-CAL foi de 78,9% em um acompanhamento de 9,1 anos. Presença de degeneração da cartilagem segundo a Sociedade Internacional de Reparação de Cartilagem (International Cartilage Repair Society [ICRS, na sigla em inglês])≥ grau 2 no compartimento medial do joelho e deformidade pré-operatória em valgo > 7° fortemente correlacionado com a conversão para artroplastia total do joelho (ATJ) no acompanhamento a longo prazo (r – 0,66). Conclusões A OVFD-CAL por navegação computadorizada apresentou resultados clínicos satisfatórios e sobrevida de 79% no acompanhamento a longo prazo. Presença de alterações degenerativas ICRS ≥ grau 2 no compartimento medial do joelho com > 7° de deformidade pré-operatória em valgo afeta negativamente a sobrevivência da OVFD-CAL no acompanhamento de longo prazo.

Aim: To explore the effect that the location of needle placement has on efficacy and tolerability of bone marrow aspirate concentrate injections during treatment of knee osteoarthritis. Methods: Bone marrow aspirate concentrate injections were administered to 111 patients via superolateral, anteromedial or anterolateral portals. Pain was assessed by visual analog scale before and 3, 7, 14 and 21 days after intervention. Knee function was assessed by Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and International Knee Documentation Committee scores before and 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after intervention. Results: Significant differences in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and International Knee Documentation Committee scores were observed 12 months post intervention compared with baseline (p < 0.001 for all comparisons). No significant differences in outcome or pain scores were observed among groups. Conclusion: All portals demonstrated similar clinical benefits up to 12 months after intervention. Trial registration number: ClinicalTrials.gov ( NCT03825133 )
