Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The number of revision total knee replacements continues to increase annually. To date, much of the literature has focused on the performance of titanium revision systems. The primary aim of the current study was to review the mid term results of a contemporary revision knee system, with alternative design features. Ninety-one consecutive patients having aseptic revision total knee arthroplasty with one, modular all-cobalt chrome stemmed revision knee system using hybrid stem fixation were studied prospectively. Eighty-nine revisions in 84 patients were reviewed at a mean of 5.9 years (range, 4.1-8.6 years). Significant improvements in pain scores (15 +/- 14 to 38 +/- 14), function (40 +/- 24 to 53 +/- 29), range of motion (88 degrees +/- 23 degrees to 98 degrees +/- 18 degrees ), and total Knee Society score (85 +/- 40 to 132 +/- 40) were seen at followup. Five patients had revision surgery, with a Kaplan-Meier survivorship of 93.5% at 8.6 years. Intermediate results support the use of cobalt chrome components and hybrid cement fixation; however, this fixation in combination with high articular constraint requires continued monitoring.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
