Related Factors of Knee Anterior Pain After Total Knee Arthroplasty
Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of knee anterior pain after total knee arthroplasty(TKA).Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted to collect data from 42 patients with knee osteoarthritis admitted to Zhoukou Orthopedic Hospital from October 2019 to September 2020.The patients with anterior knee pain after TKA treatment were included in the occurrence group,and the data of 42 patients without anterior knee pain after TKA treatment in the same period of time were collected and entered the non-occurrence group.Baseline data of the patients were reviewed and recorded,the possible influencing factors were included,and the influencing factors that may lead to the occurrence of anterior knee pain after TKA were analyzed.Results:The time of using tourniquet during operation,the proportion of poor rotation of prosthesis,and the proportion of excessive excision of infrapatellar fat pad in the occurrence group were higher than those in the non occurrence group,with statistically significant difference(t=4.878;x2=6.604,6.039;P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that long use of tourniquet during operation,poor rotation of prosthesis and excessive excision of infrapatellar fat pad were the risk factors for anterior knee pain after TKA(OR=1.438,3.511,3.100;P<0.05).Conclusion:Anterior knee pain after TKA is related with the use of tourniquet for a long time,poor rotation of prosthesis,and excessive excision of infrapatellar fat pad,etc.,which should be paid attention to clinically.
