Conditions

Arthrofibrosis of Knee, Arthrofibrosis of Shoulder

Brief summary

This project intends to collect the ultrasonic spectrum information of shoulder and knee joint fibrotic tissue, and use machine learning to study the mechanism of fibrosis tissue ultrasound imaging, and then build a model and finally establish the relationship between joint stiffness and fibrosis formation. In this study, the broadband ultrasound imaging method for joint fibrosis has the potential to create a method for ultrasonic localization, staining and evaluation of joint fibrosis, laying the foundation for the research of new conservative treatment methods and surgical positioning for fibrosis, and for reducing the occurrence of joint fibrosis rate, improve joint function of patients, and return to family and society earlier and better

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
KOOS score3-monthThe KOOS (Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score) survey is a health questionnaire used to assess the impact of knee injury or osteoarthritis on patients. It has 42 questions covering 5 domains and is rated on a 5-point Likert scale. The scale ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better outcomes. The KOOS survey is a reliable and valid tool used in research and clinical practice to assess treatment effectiveness and track symptom changes over time.
CM score3-monthThe Constant-Murley survey is a health questionnaire used to evaluate shoulder function and pain. It consists of four domains: pain, activities of daily living, range of motion, and strength. The scale ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better outcomes. The Constant-Murley survey is a reliable and valid tool used in research and clinical practice to assess treatment effectiveness and track symptom changes over time.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
SF-363-monthThe SF-36 (36-Item Short Form Survey) is a health questionnaire used to measure general health and well-being. It consists of 36 questions that evaluate eight domains, including physical functioning, role limitations, pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role limitations due to emotional problems, and mental health. The scale ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better outcomes. The SF-36 survey is a widely used and reliable tool used in research and clinical practice to assess health status and well-being.
WOMAC3-monthThe WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) survey is a health questionnaire used to evaluate the severity of osteoarthritis in the knee and hip joints. It consists of 24 questions that evaluate three domains, including pain, stiffness, and physical function. The scale ranges from 0 to 96, with higher scores indicating worse outcomes. The WOMAC survey is a reliable and valid tool used in research and clinical practice to assess treatment effectiveness and track symptom changes over time.
HSS-KS3-monthThe HSS (Hospital for Special Surgery) survey is a health questionnaire used to assess patient outcomes after total hip or knee replacement surgery. It consists of 40 questions that evaluate patient pain, function, and satisfaction with the surgery. The scale ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better outcomes. The HSS survey is a reliable and valid tool used in research and clinical practice to assess treatment effectiveness and track patient satisfaction and function over time.
