Case-Based Learning: Orthopaedics

#Knee Osteoarthritis #Cartilage Deterioration #Joint Space Narrowing #medisage The video "Case Based Learning Orthopaedics: Knee Osteoarthritis" offers a thorough overview of knee osteoarthritis (OA), a common degenerative joint disease.The presentation starts by discussing the pathophysiology and etiology of OA, focusing on the gradual deterioration of knee joint cartilage that leads to pain, swelling, and reduced mobility. Factors such as genetics, age, obesity, joint injury, and repetitive stress contribute to cartilage breakdown, subchondral bone changes, and joint space narrowing. Patients with knee OA typically experience pain during weight-bearing activities, relieved by rest and morning stiffness or after prolonged inactivity. Crepitus, a crackling or grating sensation, is also common. The video highlights the significant impact of knee OA on quality of life, often causing disability and reduced physical function. Diagnosis combines clinical assessment and imaging, with key criteria including persistent knee pain, age over 45, and morning stiffness lasting less than 30 minutes. Radiographic findings like joint space narrowing and osteophytes are crucial, and MRI can assess the extent of cartilage damage. Management strategies include non-pharmacological and pharmacological approaches. Non-pharmacological interventions involve patient education, weight management, physical therapy, and exercises to enhance strength and flexibility. Assistive devices like knee braces and orthotic insoles can help alleviate symptoms. Pharmacological treatments consist of analgesics like acetaminophen and NSAIDs, with intra-articular corticosteroid and hyaluronic acid injections for moderate to severe pain. For advanced OA unresponsive to conservative measures, surgical options are explored. These include arthroscopic debridement, osteotomy, and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), with TKA being an effective treatment for severe OA, restoring function, and reducing pain. The video concludes by emphasizing the importance of personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs and condition severity, and a multidisciplinary approach involving orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, and primary care providers to optimize outcomes and improve quality of life.
