A. Definition
B. Classification
Shoulder
I. Shoulder Arthroplasty
a. Replacement arthroplasty
- One or both joints are replaced by prosthesis, usually metal, plastic or the
most frequently used, a combination of both.
b. Interpositional arthroplasty
c. Excision arthroplasty
Indications
- Decreased ROM
Contraindications
- Active infection
- Infection
- Instability
PT management
b. To maintain normal hand, wrist and elbow function, begin active exercises
to these areas immediately after surgery
Indications
PT Management
Indications
- Severe pain
- Gross GH instability
PT Management
- Active elbow flexion and extension through full range if brace with hinged
elbow is used
3. Stage 3 – Bone spurs, rotator cuff tears and biceps rupture over 40 yrs
old
Indications
- Chronic impingement and partial thickness tears with the weakness and
atrophy in external rotators
PT Management
- PROM or AAROM of shoulder through pain free range of 90-120. CPM may
be used after surgery.
- Begin submaximal isometric exercise with small pillow under the axilla to
protect the reattached tendons
- Full active overhead shoulder flexion should not be initiated for 6 weeks to
allow adequate healing time of reattached tissues
- Most common fracture of the elbow is the fracture of the radial head. If
displacement occurs or fracture is comminuted, radial head excision is
indicated.
Indication
- Avoid lifting heavy objects with the operated arm and hand
Indications
Contraindications
- Active infection
- Instability
Indications
- Loose bodies
- Chondromalacia of radial h ead
Contraindications
- Bony ankylosis
PT Management
Wrist
Indications
- Severs instability of the wrist joint, deterioration of the distal radius, ulna
and carpals
Contraindications
- Active infection
PT Management
- Hand and wrist are placed in a bulky dressing for 3-6 days post op and
elevated to reduce edema
- Wrist splint is worn between exercise sessions during the day for 6-8
weeks, worn at night for 12 weeks
Hip
- The cartilaginous surface of the anterior and most of the middle and
posterior aspect of the femoral head as well as part of the acetabulum is
removed and attached together with pins
Indications
- Hip infection
Complications
- Femur fractures
- Pseudoarthritis
Post Op Management
Indications
Post Op Management
Indications
- Intertrochanteric fracture
- Subtrochanteric fracture
Post Op Management
- Open and closed chain active resistive exercises to enhance gait training
Knee
I. Synovectomy
Indications
- Chronic synovitis and pain of the knee lasting for 6 month or longer
PT Management
Indications
- Prevent contracture
- Initiate ambulation with crutches with weight bearing with the motion
controlled brace locked in extension
- To increase ROM and endurance of hip muscles, do open and closed chain
eccentric and concentric exercises
- Avoid closed chain squatting exercises between 60-90 flexion and open
chained terminal knee extension
Indications
- Vascular deficiency
- Muscle imbalance
PT Management
- Provides pain free weight bearing and stability of the ankle to the person
with high functional demands but sacrifices the mobility of one or more
joints of the ankle
Indications
Post Op Management
- The fused joints are immobilized in plaster of skeletal pins for 6-12 weeks.
Patient must be non weight bearing. Gait training with assistive is
necessary. To maintain mobility, AROM is performed. Patient is advised of
proper shoe selection.
Indication
PT Management
- Perform active or gentle resisted exercise of the hip and the knee on the
involved side to maintain strength of LE
- Restore ROM of the ankle with grade 3 joint mobilization but avoid stretch.
Emphasize restoration of DF and PF before inversion and eversion.
Indication
PT Management
- Ankle is immobilized in a short leg cast for 3-4 weeks positioned in PF.
Patient must remain weight bearing on affected side and ambulate with
crutches
I. Definition
II. Epidemiology
III. Etiology
Indications
- Severe hip pain with motion and weight bearing as a result of joint
deterioration and loss of articular cartilage associated with RA, OA, AS and
AVN
IV. Complications
Local
- Deep Infections
- Dislocations
- Heterotrophic bone formation
- Fracture of he femur
- Vascular complications
Systemic
- Death
- Thromboembolic disease
- Urological complications
V. Prognosis
PT Assessment
I. Assessment
- Determine the amount and type of pain, swelling or crepitation the patient
is experiencing
1. Immobilization
- After surgery when patient is lying in the bed in the supine position, the
operated limb must remain in the position of slight abduction and neutral
rotation.
2. Exercise
- Begin AROM or AAROM of the operated hip within a protected range while
the patient is lying supine to maintain soft tissue and joint mobility
- To ensure that bed mobility and transfers are performed safely, review
these techniques to the patient
- When patient is allowed out of bed, usually 2-3 days post op, begin the
following activities:
- Have the patient make a transition from walker or crutches to cane. May
occur as late as 12 weeks post op
I. Definition
II. Epidemiology
III. Etiology
- Significant stiffness
IV. Classifications
Unconstrained Prosthesis
Constrained Prosthesis
- Indicated only for patients with severe instability and deformity of the
knee
V. Complications
- Knee pain
- Loosening of prosthesis
- Stiffness
- Breakage of components
VI. Prognosis
- Almost all patients who undergo TKR report a significant relief of pain with
knee motion and weight bearing. Although patients are encouraged to
achieve full functional ROM of the knee by the time of discharge after
surgery. It may take at least 3 months post op for patients to regain
strength in the quadriceps and hamstring to a pre operative level. About
85-90 of TKR are successful up to ten years. The major long term problem
is loosening. By ten years, possibly 25% of TKE may look loose on xray.
PT Management
I. Assessment
- Determine the level of functional independence that the patient had pre
op and the level that he expects post operatively
Weight Bearing
1. Biological Fixation
2. Cement Fixation
• When using a stationary bicycle, the patient may first have the
seat positioned as high as possible
- Relaxation exercises
