Data-Driven Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Strata Predict 90-Day Major Complications Following Total Knee Arthroplasty in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg

January 2025

From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences, Washington, DC (Raftis, Zhao and Gu), the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD (Dr. Agarwal, Dr. Harris, Dr. Kurian, and Thakkar), and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine, Richmond, VA (Golladay).

Introduction: Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients who have chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased risk of complications following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, there is a lack of literature that identifies eGFR levels those are associated with notable differences in risk of these complications. The purpose of this study was to create eGFR strata for CKD patients that are associated with varying risks of 90-day major complications following TKA.

This study examined internal, external training loads, internal:external ratios, and aerobic adaptations for acute and short-term chronic repeated-sprint training (RST) with blood flow restriction (BFR). Using randomised crossover (Experiment A) and between-subject (Experiment B) designs, 15 and 24 semi-professional Australian footballers completed two and nine RST sessions, respectively. Sessions comprised three sets of 5-7 × 5-second sprints and 25 seconds recovery, with continuous BFR (45% arterial occlusion pressure) or without (Non-BFR).
