The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of preemptive analgesia on the inflammatory response and rehabilitation in TKA. 75 patients with unilateral primary knee osteoarthritis were conducted in this prospective study. All patients were randomly divided into two groups (MMA with/without preemptive analgesia group). The following parameters were used to evaluate analgesic efficacy: knee flexion, pain at rest and walking, functional walking capacity (2 MWT and 6 MWT), WOMAC score, and hs-CRP level. Patients in MMA with preemptive analgesia group had lower hs-CRP level and less pain at rest and walking during the first week postoperatively (P < 0.05). The 2 MWT was significantly better in MMA with preemptive analgesia group (17.13 ± 3.82 VS 14.19 ± 3.56, P = 0.001). The 6 MWT scores and WOMAC scores increased significantly within Groups (P = 0.020, 0.000), but no difference between groups postoperatively (P > 0.05). Less cumulative consumption of morphine was found in MMA with preemptive analgesia group at 48 h (P = 0.017, 0.023), but no difference at total requirement (P = 0.113). Preemptive analgesia added to a multimodal analgesic regime improved analgesia, reduced inflammatory reaction and accelerated functional recovery at the first week postoperatively, but not improved long-term function.

“…At each review, the following parameters were used: the visual analogue scale for pain (VAS, 0 representing “no pain” and 10 representing “the worst pain ever” (Stubbs 1979), the Merle d’Aubigné and Postel (MDP) score (Merle d’Aubigne and Postel 1954) and function (Harris Score) (Harris 1969) and complications. The radiological were obtained from an standard anteroposterior view of the pelvis and a lateral view of the hip.…”

Background Due to the adverse effects of cemented hip arthroplasty, uncemented stems with hydroxyapatite (HA) coating reduces these risks and enhanced integration. The concept of an extensive HA coating for the fixation of a tapered femoral stem (Corail®) was introduced, which can achieve durable biological fixation and preserve normal periprosthetic bone activity. Here we describe the clinical and radiological outcome in patients with the Corail® stem.Methods92 total hip replacements in 81 patients using the Corail® stem were followed-up. 47 patients were women, and the mean age at surgery was 62.9 ± 8.7 (34–71) years. The indications included: osteoarthritis of the hip (71.1%), avascular necrosis (13.6%), femur neck fractures in elderly (9.7%) and post-traumatic osteoarthritis (6.8%).Findings Eight patients died during follow-up. The revision was only found in two patients due to line wear and resulted in an 10-year Kaplan–Meier estimated overall survival rate of 97.83%. The clinical results were good, with a mean Harris hip score of 92.3 ± 5.6 (72–100). The mean total Merle d’Aubigné and Postel score was 6.8 ± 0.5 pre-operatively and 16.1 ± 1.4 at latest follow-up. All unrevised implants were radiographically stable, with a mean liner wear of 0.07 mm/year.ConclusionThis long-term analysis confirmed the durability of the functional and radiographic results. Our findings suggest the long-term results of Corail® HA-coated stem are more satisfactory which is preferable to any other system.
