Evaluating two implant designs in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty using a novel measure of early optimal recovery: a retrospective observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Quality of care in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) between implants was assessed using a novel composite outcome measure, early optimal recovery (EOR), to indicate ideal clinical outcomes and minimal healthcare resource utilization.

Methods

Patients that underwent primary TKA in the study group (ATTUNE® Knee System) or control group (LCS® COMPLETE Knee System) were included in this retrospective, single-center study. EOR was defined as no complications, no readmissions, no extra outpatient visits, ≤ 48 h length of hospital stay (LOS), and restored range of motion and pain perception at 3-month follow-up. Multivariate logistic regression was used to compare EOR between the study and control groups. Results were adjusted for differences in baseline characteristics and ar
