A Rehabilitation Tool to Determine Patient's Stay in Hospital After Joint Replacement

SPARTA force plate is used as rehabilitation tool in this study. The device is Force Plate coupled with SPARTA scan software that enables quick assessment of individual movement and balance within minutes. The magnitude as well as efficiency of force production is analyzed to determine an patient recovery graph.

About this study

The investigator hope to learn co-relation between the rehab tool and clinical findings and analyse association if any. In this study, force plate is rehab tool, which will optimize care according to the patient's specific needs and provided insights to patients length of stay in the hospital. these data driven insights will be used to observe correlation between machine and clinic data

Treatment and study plan

SPARTA force plate

Device

The Sparta Platform includes force plate hardware coupled with Sparta Scan software that enables quick assessment of an individual's movement and balance within minutes

Primary outcomes

  1. Length of Stay in Hospital Through Discharge

    Time frame: Up to 8 days

    Length of stay will depend on the score generated by device.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Gait Aid Use

    Time frame: Preoperative and month 3 post-surgery

    The gait aide use ranges in the order of decreasing performance as Nothing > Cane/Walking Sticks > crutch > walker.

  2. Knee Society Score (KSS)

    Time frame: Month 3 post-surgery

    To assess the effectiveness of the device by calculating Knee Society Score (KSS) at 3 months following surgery. The scale ranges from 0-100 with grading as: Score 80-100 - Excellent; Score 70-79 - Good; Score 60-69 - Fair; Score below 60 - Poor.

  3. Range of Motion

    Time frame: Preoperative and month 3 post-surgery

    To assess the effectiveness of the device by calculating range of motion (extension and flexion).

    Higher extension scores and lower flexion scores represent greater flexibility.
