Knee Replacement Surgery

Knee replacement surgery is a common solution for individuals experiencing severe knee pain and loss of mobility due to damaged or worn-out knee joints. This procedure can provide significant relief for those suffering from conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or injury-related knee damage.

What Is Knee Replacement Surgery?

Knee replacement surgery, or knee arthroplasty, involves replacing the damaged surface of the knee joint with an artificial joint (prosthesis) made of metal and plastic components. This surgery aims to relieve pain, restore function, and improve quality of life.

Knee replacement can be performed as:

Partial knee replacement: A smaller procedure where only part of the knee joint is replaced. Commonly performed on patients between 55 and 64 years of age, it may need to be redone within 10 years.

Total knee replacement: The entire knee joint is replaced. This is more common in older adults, typically aged 60 to 80.

When Is Knee Replacement Necessary?

A knee replacement is often suggested when:

Non-surgical treatments (such as physiotherapy, medications, and steroid injections) fail to provide relief.

The person experiences severe pain, stiffness, and swelling that affects daily activities and quality of life.

The knee joint damage significantly reduces mobility, making walking difficult.

Procedure for Knee Replacement Surgery

The surgery generally involves the following steps:

Hospital Stay: Patients typically stay in the hospital for a few days.

Anesthesia: The surgery is performed under general or regional anesthesia, meaning the patient is either fully asleep or sedated, with the area numbed.

Incision and Joint Replacement: The surgeon makes an incision over the knee, removes the damaged parts of the joint, and resurfaces the knee using prosthetic components.

Post-Surgery Monitoring: The incision is closed, and the patient is monitored for blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen levels.

Recovery Time and Risks

Recovery Time:

Most patients experience significant recovery within 12 weeks, but full recovery may take longer, depending on individual circumstances.

Mobility aids like crutches, canes, or walkers are often needed initially.

Patients typically regain their preoperative mobility levels through rehabilitation exercises and physical therapy.

Risks:

Blood Loss: While some bleeding during and after surgery is normal, in rare cases, excessive blood loss may require a transfusion.

Blood Clots: Limited movement after surgery can slow blood flow, potentially leading to clots.

Infection: Bacteria can enter the incision site, leading to swelling, fever, and redness.

Pain and Swelling: Discomfort and swelling in the knee, ankle, and foot are common after surgery.

Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, patients may experience allergic reactions to the metal components of the artificial joint.

Anesthesia-Related Risks: Nausea, headaches, and in rare cases, breathing difficulties or pneumonia.

Knee Replacement Exercises for Recovery

Exercises play a crucial role in recovery, helping increase circulation, strengthen muscles, and improve knee movement. These exercises can begin shortly after surgery to promote healing and improve outcomes.

Quadriceps Sets: Tighten your thigh muscles and straighten your knees, holding the position for 5-10 seconds. Repeat 10 times in sets of 2 minutes.

Knee Straightening: Place a rolled towel under your heel, straighten your knee, and hold for 5-10 seconds. Repeat until fatigued.

Ankle Pumps: Move your foot up and down, contracting your calf and shin muscles for 2-3 minutes, 2-3 times per hour.

Straight Leg Raises: Tighten your thigh muscle, raise your leg several inches, and hold for 5-10 seconds, then lower it slowly. Repeat until tired.

Knee Bends Supported by Bed: Slide your foot towards your buttocks, bend the knee, and hold for 5-10 seconds. Repeat until fatigued or full knee bend is achieved.

Knee Bends Supported by Sitting: Sit with your thighs supported, bend your knees as far as possible, and hold for 5-10 seconds. Repeat until fatigued.

Knee Bends Unsupported by Sitting: Sit with your feet on the floor, bend your knee, slide your body forward to increase the bend, and hold for 5-10 seconds. Repeat until tired.

Post-Surgery Mobility

Walking: Patients can begin walking small distances in the hospital room, which helps regain strength and mobility. Walking aids like crutches or a walker are often used initially.

Climbing and Descending Stairs: Requires strength and flexibility. Start with assistance, using a handrail, and take one step at a time. Always lead with the "good" knee when climbing up and use the operated knee when coming down.

Long-Term Outcomes

Around 82% of knee replacements last up to 25 years.

A combination of surgery, exercises, and lifestyle changes can result in long-term pain relief and improved knee function.

Conclusion

Knee replacement surgery can greatly enhance the quality of life for people suffering from severe knee pain or mobility issues. With proper post-operative care, rehabilitation, and exercise, patients can achieve long-term success and regain their independence.

TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT EXPLAINED

Joint replacement surgery, or Replacement arthroplasty, is an orthopaedic surgery done on arthritic or dysfunctional joints where the joint surfaces are replaced with metallic, plastic or ceramic prostheses. Joint replacement surgeries are suggested for severe joint pains or dysfunctions which are not relieved by conservative treatment approaches like medications, physical therapy, and activity modifications. The new joints are designed to replicate the movement of  normal, healthy joints as much as possible.

The most common joint replacement surgery all over the world is for the knee. They can also be done on other joints, like the hip, the ankle, wrist, shoulder, and elbow. Joint replacement surgery provides considerable pain relief and allows the patient to lead a more active and wholesome life. 

According to the survey conducted in 2020, the numbers of joint replacement surgeries in India are increasing every year with a count of around 2,00,000 total knee replacement surgery in India alone. It is of paramount importance to gather information about the physical, psychological, and social aspects of joint replacement surgery. One can negate the challenges of surgery and have a speedy recovery and a more successful outcome with proper planning. Read this article to prepare yourself better for TKR.

THINGS TO TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT BEFORE JOINT REPLACEMENT SURGERY

 What are the tests conducted before the surgery?

 What type of anaesthesia will you receive?

 What type of implant or prosthesis will be used?

 How long will be the hospital stay?

 What will be the expected time for recovery?

 What are post-op precautions?

 How will post-op pain be managed?

TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT/ TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY/ TKR

WHAT IS TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY?

Total Knee Replacement, also called total knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure by which the weight-bearing surfaces of the knee joint is replaced to relieve pain and disability after conservative treatment approaches stop being useful.

TKR is most commonly done in patients with severe Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis and severe knee injury. Deformities like bow legs are corrected by TKR.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that causes the breakdown of joint cartilage and adjacent bone in the knees. Rheumatoid arthritis causes inflammation of the synovial membrane and results in excessive synovial fluid leading to pain and stiffness. Traumatic arthritis, following an injury, causes damage to the cartilage of the knee.

WHAT IS KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY?

Knee replacement surgery can be performed as a partial or a total knee replacement surgery. The surgeon replaces the diseased or damaged joint surfaces of the knee with metal and plastic components shaped to allow smooth and pain free motion of the knee.

The prosthesis has 3 components: the tibial component (to resurface the top of the tibia, or shin bone); the femoral [thigh bone] component (to resurface the end of the thigh bone; and the patellar component (to resurface the bottom of the kneecap that rubs against the thigh bone).

HOW TO PREPARE FOR KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY?

 Learn about the procedure.

Learning about the procedure will help you prepare yourself mentally for the procedure.

 Consider the impact of surgery on your work.

Surgery and recovery might keep you away from the workplace for weeks, plan accordingly and equip yourself to work from home if possible.

 Get in shape.

Losing some extra weight if one is overweight goes a long way and gaining muscle strength before going under the knife considerably reduces your recovery time.

 Consult a physiotherapist.

A right exercise regime designed by a qualified and experienced Physiotherapist will ensure success of the TKR and reduce recovery time.

 Practice walking with crutches and walkers for easy acclimatisation.

 Discuss with family and friends for post- op support.

 Rearrange your home.

 Raise your toilet seat and add safety rails in the bathroom.

 Remove or reposition furniture in your house so that you can move around easily, and remove tripping hazards like rugs or carpets. 

 Select a surgeon and hospital.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY?

Total Knee replacement surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and lasts for about two hours and three or more in case of bilateral knee replacement.

It is critical that the patient moves the new joint after surgery. Physical therapy will be started on the day of the surgery itself. 

The continuous passive motion (CPM) machine moves the new knee joint through its range of motion while the patient is resting in bed.  Post- op pain after knee replacement is managed by medication prescribed by your doctor.

HOW SOON CAN YOU WALK AFTER A TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT?

Patients are asked to take a few steps after a few hours of the TKR. Patients are trained to walk using crutches or a walker for three to six weeks after knee replacement surgery. Physical therapy under supervision continues for another three to eight weeks to strengthen the knee and the surrounding muscles for better balance and speedy rehabilitation.

WHAT ARE THE COMPLICATIONS AFTER KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY?

 Blood clots in the legs or lungs.

 Deep Vein Thrombosis.

 Infection at the incision site.

 Implant problems like loosening or breaking of implant.

 Allergy to metal components of the prosthesis.

 Injury to artery.

 Nerve injury leading to numbness/ foot drop/ weakness in the leg, tingling/ burning or      prickling sensation.

 Continued pain or stiffness.

 Heart attack 

 Stroke.

After the surgery, notify your doctor if you notice any of the following:

 High fever.

 Redness, swelling, or bleeding or other drainage from the incision site.

 Increased pain around the incision site.

 New or increased swelling of the leg.

 Chest pain

 Shortness of breath

REHABILITATION AFTER TKR

Rehabilitation after TKR highly depends on patient compliance for post-op exercises and precautions. 

Some swelling and initial pain at the joint are normal after knee replacement. One can reduce the pain by following methods:

 Take rest between therapy sessions.

 Ice the leg and the incision site.

 Take anti-inflammatory medications prescribed by your doctor.

 Leg elevation above the heart level reduces the swelling.

 Follow the exercise plan designed by your Physiotherapist.

Your physical therapist may recommend that you exercise for 20 to 30 minutes daily, or even 2 to 3 times daily; and walk for 30 minutes, 2 to 3 times daily during your early recovery. 

Post operative exercises will aid in proper blood circulation to legs and feet to prevent blood clots. They will also help strengthen your muscles and improve knee movement.

Your physiotherapist will supervise and design an exercise regime for the good outcome of the surgery. Advanced exercises will help patients regain balance and early return to normal routine.

PRECAUTIONS AFTER TKR

While Lying Down:

 Lie flat on your back as much as possible and do isometric knee exercises after every two hours.

 Do not place a pad or pillow behind your knee when lying down. 

 Keep your knee straight even during leg elevation.

 Do not sleep on your surgical side before consulting with your doctor.

While getting dressed:

Do not wear pants while standing. Sit on a chair or the edge of your bed for more stability.

When getting up from a chair, slide toward the edge of the chair, and use the arms of the chair, your walker, or crutches for support to get up.

While bathing and showering:

 Place anti-skid mats in the bathing area.

 Take a bath while standing or use a stable plastic chair for sitting in the shower.

 Keep the bathroom floor dry and clean.

 Do not bend, squat, or reach for anything while you are showering.

 Do not sit down on the floor, it will be too hard to get up safely.

 Use an elevated toilet seat or install handrails.

While using stairs

 When you are going up stairs, step first with your leg that did not have surgery.

 When you are going down stairs, step first with your leg that has had surgery.

 Take one step at a time until your muscles get stronger.

 Use railing while going up and down the stairs.

 Avoid long flights of stairs for the first 2 months after surgery.

While getting into and riding in a car:

 Get into the car from earth level and move the front seat back as far as possible.

 Car seats shouldn't be too low. Sit on a pillow if needed.

 Take assistance and have someone help lift your legs into the car.

 Avoid long journeys for the first few months after total knee replacement and walk around every 45 to 60 minutes.

 Do ankle pumps while riding in the car to avoid stiffness and reduce the risk of blood clots.

 Turn your body as someone helps you lift your legs out of the car.

 Scoot and lean forward.

 Standing on both legs, use your crutches or walker to help you stand up.

Knee Procedures in Chennai

Knee injuries refer to any form of damage or trauma to the knee joint, the largest and one of the most complex joints in the human body. Knee Procedures in Chennai Such injuries are common and may result from various causes, including sports activities, accidents, repetitive strain, or degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis. For individuals experiencing knee-related issues, advanced procedures offered by expert knee replacement surgeons in Chennai provide a reliable path to recovery and improved mobility.

Causes of Knee Injuries

Knee injuries occur due to multiple factors, often depending on a person’s activity levels, age, and health condition. Below are some of the most common causes:

Sports or Recreational Activities: Sports such as football, basketball, soccer, and skiing often place immense stress on the knees, leading to injuries. Sudden twists, turns, or impacts during these activities can result in ligament tears or sprains.

Falls and Accidents: Accidental falls or trauma from road accidents can cause significant damage to the knee joint, including fractures and ligament injuries.

Overuse or Repetitive Strain: Continuous movements like running, jumping, or climbing stairs place repetitive stress on the knee joint, causing inflammation or wear over time.

Arthritis: Chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other forms of arthritis lead to pain, stiffness, and decreased joint mobility.

Ligament Sprains and Tears: The knee ligaments can sustain injuries due to sudden twisting or hyperextension of the joint.

Meniscus Tears: The meniscus, a cartilage cushion in the knee, can tear due to sharp twisting motions or degeneration over time.

Patellar Tendinitis: Inflammation of the tendon connecting the kneecap to the shinbone can cause pain, often seen in athletes.

Bursitis: The inflammation of fluid-filled sacs (bursae) in the knee joint can lead to swelling and discomfort.

Advanced Knee Procedures in Chennai

Chennai is home to some of the most sophisticated knee procedures that cater to diverse knee conditions. Orthopedic specialists in the region utilize cutting-edge technology to deliver effective and minimally invasive treatments. Below are some of the best knee procedures offered in Chennai:

1. Total Knee Replacement (TKR)

Total knee replacement, also known as total knee arthroplasty, involves replacing the damaged or worn-out surfaces of the knee joint with artificial prosthetic components made of metal or plastic.

Procedure Overview:

The surgeon makes an incision over the knee to expose the joint.

Damaged portions of the femur and tibia are carefully removed.

Artificial components are attached to the femur and tibia using bone cement or screws.

A smooth gliding surface is placed between the components to facilitate natural movement.

The patella (kneecap) is tested for proper alignment before closing the incision.

TKR is an effective solution for patients with advanced osteoarthritis, providing significant pain relief and improved mobility.

2. Unicondylar or Partial Knee Replacement

Partial knee replacement, also known as unicompartmental knee replacement, is suitable for patients with damage limited to a single compartment of the knee. This minimally invasive surgery involves resurfacing or replacing only the affected portion of the joint.

Procedure Overview:

A small incision is made to access the damaged compartment.

Diseased cartilage and bone are removed.

Artificial implants are secured to the prepared bone surfaces using bone cement.

The rest of the knee remains intact, allowing for faster recovery and a more natural range of motion.

3. Revision Knee Replacement

Revision knee replacement is performed to replace a worn-out or failed knee prosthesis. It is a more complex procedure compared to primary knee replacement.

Procedure Overview:

The surgeon removes the existing prosthesis and any damaged bone or tissue.

Bone grafts or metal wedges may be used to reconstruct lost bone.

New prosthetic components are fitted to restore joint function.

This surgery is essential for patients experiencing issues such as implant loosening, wear, or infection.

Pre-Operative and Post-Operative Care

Before the Procedure:  Patients undergo thorough evaluations, including physical examinations, imaging tests, and blood work, to ensure they are fit for surgery. Surgeons may recommend lifestyle changes, such as losing weight or quitting smoking, to reduce surgical risks.

During the Procedure:  The surgery is performed under anesthesia to ensure the patient remains pain-free. Depending on the type of knee procedure, the surgeon either repairs damaged tissues or replaces the joint with prosthetic components.

After the Procedure:

Hospital stays typically last 1-2 days.

Patients receive home-based or outpatient physical therapy to regain mobility.

Recovery time varies but generally takes 6-8 weeks, with most patients resuming normal activities within 3 months.

Benefits of Knee Procedures

Knee surgeries offer a multitude of advantages for individuals suffering from chronic pain or mobility issues:

Pain Relief: Significant reduction or complete elimination of knee pain.

Improved Mobility: Enhanced ability to perform daily activities.

Better Quality of Life: Patients experience increased independence and improved physical and mental health.

Long-Lasting Results: Modern implants and surgical techniques provide durable solutions.

Risks Associated with Knee Procedures

While knee surgeries are generally safe, potential risks include:

Infection: Post-surgical infections can occur but are manageable with antibiotics.

Blood Clots: Increased risk of clots in the legs, which require medical intervention.

Nerve Damage: Rare instances of nerve injury leading to numbness or weakness.

Implant Wear or Loosening: Artificial components may need replacement after many years.

When to Consider Knee Replacement

Knee replacement is often recommended for individuals with severe osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or significant joint damage that affects daily life. Orthopedic specialists evaluate each case to determine the most suitable treatment plan based on the patient’s age, health, and activity levels.

Conclusion

Knee injuries and conditions can significantly impact one’s quality of life, but advanced medical procedures in Chennai offer effective solutions.

Partial Knee Replacement Surgery and Arthroscopic Knee Surgery by Dr. Shivam Shah

Welcome to Dr. Shivam Shah’s Orthopedic Clinic

If you’re struggling with knee pain, stiffness, or limited mobility, you’re not alone. Knee problems are a common cause of discomfort and disability, but there are advanced surgical treatments available that can help restore your quality of life. At Dr. Shivam Shah’s clinic, we specialize in partial knee replacement surgery and arthroscopic knee surgery to treat a variety of knee conditions with the goal of relieving pain, improving function, and helping you return to an active lifestyle.

What is Partial Knee Replacement Surgery?

Partial knee replacement surgery is a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat knee arthritis or joint degeneration when only part of the knee joint is affected. Unlike total knee replacement, where the entire knee joint is replaced, partial knee replacement focuses on resurfacing only the damaged portion of the knee. This results in several benefits:

Faster Recovery: Since only a part of the knee is replaced, the procedure is less invasive, leading to a shorter hospital stay and quicker rehabilitation.

Preservation of Healthy Tissue: The surgery preserves healthy bone and cartilage around the affected area, which means a more natural feel and movement in the knee after surgery.

Less Pain: With less trauma to the knee joint, patients typically experience less postoperative pain and discomfort compared to total knee replacement.

Dr. Shivam Shah is a highly experienced orthopedic surgeon specializing in partial knee replacement surgery. Using state-of-the-art technology and surgical techniques, Dr. Shah ensures precise outcomes, helping you regain mobility and improve your quality of life.

What is Arthroscopic Knee Surgery?

Arthroscopic knee surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a small camera (arthroscope) and specialized surgical instruments to diagnose and treat various knee conditions. This procedure allows Dr. Shivam Shah to view the inside of your knee joint in real-time, making it possible to address issues with minimal disruption to the surrounding tissues. Common conditions treated with arthroscopy include:

Knee Cartilage Damage: Repairing or removing damaged cartilage, including meniscal tears.

Ligament Injuries: Addressing damage to knee ligaments, such as the ACL or PCL.

Knee Joint Inflammation: Treating synovitis or other forms of joint inflammation.

Loose Bodies: Removing small bone or cartilage fragments that may be causing pain.

Arthroscopic knee surgery offers a number of advantages:

Minimally Invasive: Smaller incisions mean less tissue damage, reduced scarring, and a quicker recovery.

Faster Recovery Time: Most patients experience less pain and swelling, with a quicker return to normal activities.

Accurate Diagnosis and Treatment: The arthroscope provides high-definition images, helping Dr. Shah precisely diagnose and treat the issue with minimal risk of complications.

The Different Types of Joint Replacement Surgeries

Joint replacement surgery is a highly effective option for people experiencing severe joint pain, stiffness, or disability, often due to conditions like arthritis or injuries. The most common types of joint replacement surgeries are for the hip, knee, and shoulder. In a hip replacement, the damaged ball-and-socket joint is removed and replaced with a prosthetic implant. Knee replacement involves resurfacing the knee joint with artificial materials to alleviate pain and enhance mobility. Shoulder replacement, while less common, is also very effective, particularly for individuals with degenerative diseases or serious fractures. Each procedure is customized to meet the specific needs of the patient, aiming to restore function and minimize pain.

If you're thinking about joint replacement surgery or have been recommended to have one, our joint replacement hospital provides expert care with cutting-edge surgical techniques. Our skilled team is dedicated to creating personalized treatment plans and offering comprehensive rehabilitation after surgery to help you get back to an active, pain-free lifestyle.

Knee Replacement Surgery in Thailand

You may need to consider total knee replacement surgery if you experience chronic knee pain or the inability to move your knee normally. The type of procedure a patient receives depends on several factors, including their age, weight, activity level, and overall health. Knee replacement surgery, also called total knee arthroplasty, is a procedure where damaged cartilage and some underlying bone around the knee joint is resurfaced with a plastic spacer and metal implants. This procedure could be more accurately described as “knee resurfacing” since only a thin surface area of the bone is replaced.

The knee is the largest joint in the human body, so maintaining your knee health is important for undertaking everyday activities. The first knee replacement surgery took place in 1968 and naturally, significant improvements have been made since. With modern techniques and technology, knee replacement surgery is one of the most successful medical procedures.
