Brief Summary

This study compares two total knee replacement implants to asses muscle function and quality, and the immune response to the implants. 30 patients will receive the Smith and Nephew Journey II implant,...

Detailed Description

Patients will undergo biomechanics testing while they complete sit-to-stand, stand-to-sit, lateral step down, level walking, and single leg balance tasks up to 1 month before surgery, and 6 and 12 mon...

  • bilateral knee replacements
  • previous joint replacement at the affected knee
  • any other past or present conditions that may impact gait
  • any active infection and any diagnosed conditions that may affect the local and systemic immune response (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, HIV infection, lupus, pregnancy, and thrombocytosis)
  • BMI and waist circumference (WC) will be another exclusion criterion since both BMI and WC are associated with health problems and gait abnormalities. Any patient with both BMI \> 35 kg/m2 and a WC \> 102 cm in men or \> 88 cm in women will be excluded from the study.
  • Healthy Controls Inclusion
  • controls must not suffer from lower extremity injuries or joint conditions that might alter gait dynamics Exclusion
  • BMI and waist circumference (WC) will be another exclusion criterion since both BMI and WC are associated with health problems and gait abnormalities. Any patient with both BMI \> 35 kg/m2 and a WC \> 102 cm in men or \> 88 cm in women will be excluded from the study
