  1. 21. Knee and ankle kinesiology and joint instability

    Författare :Håkan Gauffin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : This study, comprising 7 separate papers, is concerned with the additional information supplied by a kinesiological approach for evaluation of patients with instability due to old ligamenta us injury to the knee or ankle joint. This approach required development of new methods for kinesiological analysis. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Synovial metabolism after knee joint arthroscopy : a microdialysis study

    Författare :Erland Högberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Microdialysis; synovial membrane; knee joint; arthroscopy; trauma;

    Sammanfattning : Postoperative pain and swelling of the knee is a general finding after arthroscopy. In order to optimize and individualize the treatment it is of great importance to increase basic knowledge of perioperative local biochemical events in the synovial membrane. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Local infiltration analgesia in knee arthroplasty

    Författare :Per Essving; Kjell Axelsson; Lars Weidenhielm; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Knee arthroplasty; minimally invasive surgery; ropivacaine; ketorolac; intrathecal morphine; local infiltration analgesia; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Local infiltration analgesia (LIA) is a new technique for postoperative pain management following knee arthroplasty. LIA involves a long-acting local anesthetic (ropivacaine), a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (ketorolac) and epinephrine infiltrated into the knee joint during surgery and injected postoperatively via a catheter.

  5. 24. Mechanics and Growth of Articular Cartilage Around a Localized Metal Implant

    Författare :Krishnagoud Manda; Anders Eriksson; Nico Verdonschot; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finite element analysis; articular cartilage defects; growth; knee; focal knee resurfacing; metal implant; poroelastic; porohyperelastic; biphasic;

    Sammanfattning : Articular cartilage is a specialized connective soft tissue that resides on the ends of long-bones, and transfers the load smoothly between the bones in diarthrodial joints by providing almost frictionless, wear resistant sliding surfaces during joint articulation. Focal chondral or osteochondral defects in articular cartilage are common and show limited capacity for biological repair. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Knee joint kinematics and the effects of arthropasty component design

    Författare :Tuuli Saari; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Total knee replacement; motion analysis; radiostereometry; migration; kinematics; radiolucent lines; clinical outcome;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To evaluate the influence of medial osteoarthritis on knee joint kinematics and the effect of design in total knee replacements (TKR) on the kinematics of trunk, hip, knee and ankle. Associations between articulating surface design, clinical outcome and fixation of the tibial component were also evaluated. LÄS MER
