Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease characterized by loss of articular cartilage. It most commonly affects weight-bearing joints like the knees and hips in older individuals. Symptoms include pain worsened by activity and relieved by rest, morning stiffness less than 30 minutes, and functional impairment. Investigations show normal blood tests and synovial fluid may be viscous with low turbidity. Management involves non-pharmacological measures like exercise and weight loss as well as pharmacological options like paracetamol, NSAIDs, and intra-articular corticosteroid injections.

WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS ???

Femur
Osteoarthritis is a
degenerative disease of
synovial joints
characterized by focal loss
of articular hyaline
cartilage with proliferation
of new bone & remodeling of
joint contour.
EPIDEMIOLOGY
• Weight bearing joints e.g. knee & hip joints.

• Age > 65 years.


– 80% have radiographic features.
– 25-30% have symptoms.

• More common in women.

• Familial tendency.
DISTRIBUTION
STRIBUTIONOFOFDISEASE
DISE
ETIOLOGY

• PRIMARY/IDIOPATHIC:
When there is no obvious predisposing
factor. Common form of OA.

• SECONDARY:
When degenerative joint changes occur in
response to a recognizable local or systemic
factor.
CAUSES OF SECONDARY OSTEOARTHRITIS
RISK FACTORS

CONSTITUTIONAL MECHANICAL FACTORS


SUSCEPTIBILITY

AGEING
PATHOGENESIS

Progressive destruction &


loss of articular cartilage
with an accompanying
peri-articular bone
response leads to
l ' ' exposure of sub-chondral
bone which becomes
sclerotic, with increased
blood vascularity & cyst
formation.
CLINICAL FEATURES
• Pain:
– Activity & weight-bearing
related, relieved by rest.
– Variable over time.
– Only one or few joints involve d.

• Morning stiffness only brief


<30 minutes.

• Restricted functionality:
– Capsular thickening.
– Blocking by osteophytes.
CLINICAL FINDINGS IN NODAL
GENERALIZED OA
• Presentation typically in women. (40 & 50 years)

• Pain.

• Stiffness.

• Swelling of one or few finger interphalangeal


joints ( distal > proximal). .....__~_ Bouchard'.
node

• Heberden’s nodes (+/- Bouchard’s nodes).

• Involvement of first carpometacarpal joint is


common.

• Predisposition to OA at other joints specially


knees.
CLINICAL FINDINGS IN KNEE OA
• Targets patello-femoral & medial tibio-femoral compartments of knee.

• Pain is localized to anterior or medial aspect of knee & upper tibia.

• Jerky gait.

• Varus deformity.

• Joint line &/or periarticular tenderness.

• Weakness & wasting of quadriceps muscle.

• Restricted extension & flexion.

• Bony swelling around joint.


CLINICAL FINDINGS IN HIP OA
• Targets mostly superior aspect & less commonly medial aspect of joint.

• Pain is maximally deep in groin area.

• Antalgic gait.

• Weakness & wasting of muscles (quadriceps & gluteal).

• Pain & restricted internal rotation with flexion.


CLINICAL FINDINGS IN EARLY-
ONSET OA
• Before the age of 45 years.

• Single or multiple joint involvement.

• Typical signs & symptoms of OA.

/
CLINICAL FEATURES IN EROSIVE OA
• Preferentially targeting proximal IPJs.

• Common development of IPJ lateral instability.

• Sub-chondral erosions on x-rays.

• Ankylosis of IPJs.
MARGINAL OSTEOPHYTES
INVESTIGATIONS
• BLOOD TEST:
– FBC NORMAL.
– ESR NORMAL.
– CRP NORMAL.
– RHEUMATOID FACTOR NEGATIVE.

• SYNOVIAL FLUID ANALYSIS:


– VISCOUS WITH LOW TURBIDITY.
– CPPD & CALCIUM PHOSPHATE.
MANAGEMENT
NON•
PHARMACOTHERAPY
NON-PHARMACOTHERAPY
– Full explanation of the condition via patient education:

• Properly position and support your neck and back while sitting or sleeping.

• Adjust furniture, such as raising a chair or toilet seat.

• Avoid repeated motions of the joint, especially frequent bending.

• Lose weight if you are overweight or obese,


which can reduce pain and slow progression
of OA.

• Exercise each day.

• Build confidence.
NON-PHARMACOTHERAPY
• Exercises:
• Aerobic conditioning.

• Muscle strengthening exercises.

• Reduction of adverse mechanical


factors:
• Weight loss.

• Pacing of activities.

• Appropriate footwear.
PHARMACOTHERAPY
PARACETAMOL WEAKOPIOIDS
•Initial drug of choice •Occasionally required.
•Orally 1 gm 6-8 hourly •e.g: dihydrocodeine

NSAIDs INTRA-ARTICULAR
•Indicated as needed. CORTICOSTEROIDS
•Oral e.g: ibuprofen & coxibs INJECTIONS
•Topically e.g: capsaicin •3-5 weekly.
0.025% cream

HYALURONIC INJECTIONS
•Injections for 3-5 weeks.
•Pain relief for several months.
