TKA & THA Flashcards
What is the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement Model
- Moves away from payment per patient and more toward outcomes
- Hospitals given a target price that includes all costs of surgery and all related care 90 days s/p
- Encourages hospitals to coordinate care and collaborate
Required hospital reporting for CJR
- Risk Standardized Complication Rate
- Patient Satisfaction Survey
CJR Implications for Rehab - Recommended outcomes
- Pt reported outcome measurement information system (PROMIS)
- Hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score
- knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score
why is prevalence of osteoarthritis increasing?
- Expanding age population
- obesity
- trauma
- higher participation in high impact sports
Ceramic on Ceramic
- Wear and scratch resistant
- Decreased revision rates, osteolysis, aseptic loosening, dislocation
Different types of implants
- short stem total hip arthroplasty
- hip resurfacing
- total hip arthroplasty
what is hip resurfacing?
- Femoral head preserved
- no femoral stem
- capped head
- fastest growing orthopedic procedure in the world
Hip resurfacing candidate
- male, <60 years old
- Normal functioning kidneys
- active lifestyle
- BMI <30
Hip resurfacing benefits
- higher ROM
- decreased chance of dislocation
- significant gains in ROM by 6 mo and 1 year
- not as many restrictions
Anterolateral THA
- anterior 1/3 of glute med and min released and repaired; ERs usually left intact
Posterolateral THA
- short ERs and piriformis released and repaired; glute med and TFL intact
Minimally invasive surgery THA
- posterior approach: incision between interval between glute meds and piriformis; short ERs may/may not be released and repaired
- Anterior approach: all muscles left intact; sartorus and RF retracted medially; TFL laterally
Traditional Anterolateral THA precautions
no hip flex past 90
no ext, Abd. and ER past neutral
Traditional posterolateral THA precautions
- no hip flex past 90
- no ADD past neutral
- no IR past neutral
Minimally invasive surgery THA approaches precautions
may have some, may not have some

max protection phase
- prevent vascular complications
- prevent dislocation/sublux
- achieve independent functional mobility
- maintain functional level of strength in non-op extremities
- regain active mobility and control of op limb
mod protection phase
- regain strength and muscular endurance
- improve cardiopulm endurance
- restore ROM with precautions
- improve postural stability, balance, gait
min protection phase
- continued training for restoration of strength, muscular, and cardiopulmonary endurance, balance, and symmetrical gait pattern
- gradual resumption of functional/rec activities
designing a rehab program for athroplasty
- maximize strength
- maximize flexibility
- limit abnormal forces across the hip or knee
- prevent hip dislocation
- prevent excessive wear
full squat ROM
- flex: 130
- ER: 5-36
- Abd: 10-30
Cross legged ROM
- flex: 90-100
- ER: 35-60
- abd: 40-45
