Abouzeedan et al. (2013) argue that these challenges include scarcity of resources, complexity of scientific field, coordination of the operative functions of the firm, and access to up-to-date scientific excellence.
Since patient demographics, component positioning, post operative functioning (activity level) and regional influences may all affect revision rates for aseptic loosening, so it is important to investigate to what extent each factor may differ between two studies [ 5, 22- 24].
The identification of pre-operative functional assessments predictive of short-term post-operative function could be used pre-operatively to identify patients potentially requiring additional resources post-operatively.
Patient function was measured pre-operatively, providing a baseline with which to compare post-operative function, but there was no independent assessment of possible longitudinal changes, assessed with a control group, nor was the assessment blinded.
It is not known which peri-operative function assessments predict length of stay (LOS) and short-term functional recovery.
ACL deficiency is uncommon in patients undergoing TKR for OA, and does not worsen pre-operative function.
