Orthopaedic Surgery, LifeBridge Health Rubin Institute for Advanced Orthopedics, Baltimore, United States.
Introduction: The widespread adoption of smartphones and wearable technology has introduced innovative approaches in healthcare, particularly in postoperative rehabilitation. These technologies hold significant promise for improving recovery following lower extremity arthroplasty, especially total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Despite growing interest, the evidence on their effectiveness and long-term impact remains variable.

This study aims to study the efficacy and safety of a Periarticular analgesic cocktail including ropivacaine injection and epidural ropivacaine for early rehabilitation after a total knee replacement.
Methods: Total of 100 patients divided into two groups, one group received epidural ropivacaine and second group given periarticular cocktail containing ropivacaine.

Purpose: Involving patients in developing patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) is essential for accurately capturing their perspectives. However, understanding how patients were involved in developing PROMs used after hip or knee arthroplasty is limited. This scoping review aimed to evaluate whether patients were involved in the development of these PROMs and how they were involved.

Bond Institute of Health and Sport, Robina, Australia.
Background: Current research focused on clinical outcomes suggests that lateral extra-articular procedures (LEAPs) can reduce rotational instability and graft failure rates in primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions (ACLRs). Limited studies have investigated the functional outcomes after LEAPs, including patient-reported outcome measures, sports participation, and physical performance.
Purpose: To conduct a systematic literature review and meta-analysis to determine whether the addition of a LEAP to an ACLR results in superior functional and clinical outcomes as compared with an isolated ACLR.
