“…Faster to answer and more intuitive single-item scores can also lead to higher response rates and more fully completed questionnaires, as Plachel et al showed with a similar score for the knee. Here, significantly higher rates of complete responses were shown for the single-item score compared to more complex multi-item scores [ 20 ].…”

“…For this reason, subjective single item scores have been developed in musculoskeletal research for the (time-) efficient assessment of subjectively perceived joint-specific function [ 12 , 13 , 20 , 26 ]. These valid scores show good correlation with multi-item scores and can be applied to a variety of pathologies and are regularly used in clinical practice.…”

Background Spinal function can be assessed through different patient reported outcome measures (PROMs). Purpose: The aim of the present study was to evaluate a novel single-item score for the assessment of spinal function: The Subjective Spine Value (SSpV). It was hypothesized that the SSpV correlates with the established scores Oswestry disability index (ODI) and Core Outcome Measures Index (COMI). Methods Between 08/2020 and 11/2021 151 consecutive patients were prospectively enrolled and completed a questionnaire with the ODI, COMI as well as the SSpV. Patients were divided into 4 groups depending on their specific pathology (Group 1: Degenerative pathologies, Group 2: Tumor, Group 3: Inflammatory / Infection, Group 4: Trauma). Pearson correlation coefficient was used to evaluate correlation between the SSpV and the ODI and COMI separately. Floor and ceiling effects were evaluated. Results Overall, the SSpV correlated significantly with both ODI (p = < 0.001; r = − 0.640) and COMI (p = < 0.001; r = − 0.640). This was also observed across all investigated groups (range − 0.420–0.736). No relevant floor or ceiling effects were noticed. Conclusions The SSpV is a valid single-item score for the assessment of spinal function. The SSpV offers a useful tool to efficiently assess spinal function in a variety of spinal pathologies. Level of evidence I, prospective cohort study.

“…SANE is a simple method of evaluating patients' sense of functional improvement after meniscal repair surgery and rating for current illness score about their pre-injury baseline on a range of 0 to 100. SANE scores are most commonly used by orthopedic sports specialist surgeons, and usually for the shoulder and the knee [ 10 ].…”

Introduction The meniscus plays a vital role in maintaining knee stability. It acts as a shock absorber and knee filler. The incidence of meniscal tears is estimated to be 60 per 100,000 people. Due to lack of awareness among patients, only 10% of the meniscus tears were treated through partial or total meniscectomy. Recently, the concept of meniscus preservation surgery has emerged to preserve early degeneration of the knee joint. In the current retrospective study, safety and functional outcomes of arthroscopic meniscal repair surgery using Surestitch All inside implants (Sironix Arthroscopy Solutions, Healthium Medtech Limited, Bengalaru, India) were assessed. Methods Fifty-two patients who underwent arthroscopic meniscal repair surgery between January 2019 to July 2022 at Epic Hospital in Gujarat, India, were enrolled in the study. Retrospective data including demographics, injury details, surgery details, and post-surgery complications were collected from the medical records of the patients. Then, the patients were followed up telephonically to document safety and functional outcomes using patient-reported instruments such as International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score, Tegner activity level, and Lysholm knee score. Results The recruited patients had the mean age, height, and weight of 37.56 ± 12.52 years, 167.61 ± 7.28 cm, and 75.87 ± 10.7 kgs, respectively. Seventy-one percent of patients were male and 29% were female. Majority of the patients had the routine of doing mild exercise. During pre-surgery representations, medial meniscal tear was observed in majority of patients. The mean length of the tear was 1.32 ± 0.84 cm. In addition, patients were also diagnosed with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), medial collateral ligament (MCL) tears, and osteochondral defects. Surgeries for meniscal repair were performed using Surestitch All inside implant. In patient-reported outcomes, the mean IKDC, SANE, and Lysholm scores were 81.72 ± 14.23, 94.02 ± 13.79, and 93.32 ± 14.63, respectively. When the mean Tegner scores of pre-injury and post-surgery periods were compared, this resulted in no significant difference (p>0.05) in the activity levels of the patients. Conclusion Based on our findings, arthroscopic meniscal repair with Surestitch All inside meniscal repair implant provides satisfactory and favorable functional outcomes with no remarkable adverse events.

Background. Anterior cruciate ligament rupture is the most common knee joint injury, especially in young people with a healthy and active lifestyle. The concept of quality of life has been dynamically developing. The scope of its application is expanding in various fields of medicine to provide a comprehensive assessment of treatment and rehabilitation efficacy.Objective — to assess the feasibility of complex individual physical rehabilitation of patients after early and delayed arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).Methods. Open simple non-randomized trial enrolled 834 patients with the anterior cruciate ligament rupture of the knee joint. In the first group (431 patients), ACL plastic surgery was performed in the early stages — between weeks 2 and 6. In the second group (403 patients), ACL reconstruction was performed in the later stages — from week 7 to 1 year, inclusive. Each group was divided into two subgroups — the main one, in which restorative treatment and comprehensive individual rehabilitation were carried out, and the control group, with rehabilitation treatment in accordance with the standards of postoperative treatment. The study was conducted in Traumatology, Orthopedics and Medical Rehabilitation Unit of Clinical Hospital No. 1. Patients were included in the trial from 2016 to 2021. The follow-up period for each patient was one year. Statistical data processing was performed by means of Statistica 12.0 (StatSoft, Inc., USA). Independent samples were compared using non-parametric criteria: Mann — Whitney U-test and Wilcoxon T-test.Results. No statistical differences were found in the distribution according to gender, age and body mass index. A comparative analysis of scale medians of Medical Outcomes Study 36Item Short-Form Health Survey (MOSSF-36), conducted in patients before surgery, revealed no statistically significant differences ( p>0.05) between the main and control subgroups in both groups. Analyzing medians before ACL reconstruction showed a significant decrease in comparison with population studies ( p < 0.0001, Mann — Whitney U-test). The analysis of physical and mental component summaries via MOSSF-36 revealed statistically significant differences in the effectiveness of treatment of patients in 1 year after ACL plastic surgery and complex individual rehabilitation. Thus, in the main subgroups, the values of treatment efficacy medians were significantly higher than in the control ones, regardless of the timing of ACL plastic surgery ( p < 0.001, Mann — Whitney U-test). The results testify to higher median efficacy values in patients of the main subgroup of group 1 than in other subgroups ( p < 0.001, Mann — Whitney U-test). The study of correlative relationships demonstrated a stronger relationship between the medians of physical and mental component summaries in the main subgroup of the first group (correlation coefficient = 0.76), if compared to the main subgroup of the second group (coefficient = 0.67).Conclusion. The study testified to the treatment efficacy proved using the scales of physical and mental component summaries. They demonstrated more significant treatment efficacy one year after arthroscopic ACL reconstruction and individual rehabilitation in the main subgroup of group 1 than in the other subgroups.
