Decision-making toolGuidelinesOBJECTIVE: To develop a decision-making tool (DMT) to facilitate the prescription of knee orthoses for patients with osteoarthritis (OA) in daily practice. METHODS: A steering comm
of the knee using a 3-Point Leverage System. The thigh and calf shells account for two points of leverage, while the Dynamic Force System™ (DFS) straps provide the third. This system “unloads” the pressure from the affected area, providing a clinically proven reduction in OA knee pain...

The preoperative assessment of neuropathic pain-like symptoms and central pain mechanisms in patients with knee OA may aid clinicians in the decision-making process as to whether to embark on TKR surgery for that individual patient based on the likelihood of a successful outcome in terms of pain ...
Continued investigation will enhance the understanding of the efficacy and safety of collagen peptides as a therapeutic option for knee osteoarthritis, ultimately providing more robust evidence for clinical decision-making. Conclusion In conclusion, our systematic review and meta-analysis provides...
and the short version of the Hip/Knee Osteoarthritis Decision Quality Instrument (HK-DQI)[46]will be obtained by questionnaire. After the randomisation, the participant will be asked about their belief in the effect of the assigned/chosen treatment in relation to pain, function and quality of ...
By providing a detailed analysis of these long-term outcomes, the study results offer valuable insights into the efficacy and durability of the LOSPA knee system, thereby informing clinical decision-making and future TKA implant design innovations....
Integrating these findings into a wide-ranging framework marks a meaningful step toward personalized knee-joint digital twins, potentially strengthening therapeutic strategies and informing clinical decision-making in rheumatological care. This flexible and consistent infrastructure can be adapted to a broad ...
This begs the question of whether TKA decision-making should be driven by the magnitude of benefit, that is, the change score from baseline, or whether it should be driven by patient satisfaction and pain and function at the final outcome time point (i.e., final outcome was assessed 6 ...
