 Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease
of diarthrodial (synovial) joint, characterized
by breakdown of articular cartilage and
proliferatative changes of bones.
 Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint
disorder. It is due to aging and wear and tear
on a joint.
PRIMARY OSTEOARTHRITIS SECONDARY
 AGE: _ Osteoarthritis usually starts from the late 40s onwards.
This may be due to bodily changes that come with ageing, such
as weakening muscles, weight gain, and the body becoming less
able to heal itself effectively.
 GENDER:- For most joints, osteoarthritis is more common and
more severe in women.
 OBESITY :-Being overweight is an important factor in causing
osteoarthritis, especially in weight-bearing joints such as the
knee and the hip
 JOINT INJURY :- A major injury or operation on a joint may lead
to osteoarthritis in that joint later in life. Normal activity and
exercise dont cause osteoarthritis, but very hard, repetitive
activity or physically demanding jobs can increase your risk.
 JOINT ABNORMALITIES:- If you were born with abnormalities or
developed them in childhood, it can lead to earlier and more
severe osteoarthritis than usual.
 Pain:- Affected joints might hurt during or after
movement.
 Stiffness :-Joint stiffness might be most noticeable
upon awakening or after being inactive.
 Tenderness:- Your joint might feel tender when you
apply light pressure to or near it.
 Loss of flexibility:-You might not be able to move
your joint through its full range of motion.
 Grating sensation.:-You might feel a grating
sensation when you use the joint, and you might hear
popping or crackling.
 Swelling:- This might be caused by soft tissue
inflammation around the joint.

 Medication: Over-the-counter (OTC) pain relievers can help
reduce pain and inflammation. You might need medication
you take by mouth or topical pain relievers (creams,
ointments or patches you put on your skin near your affected
joints).
 Exercise: Moving your joints can relieve stiffness and
strengthen the muscles around them. Low-impact activities
like swimming, weight training can all help. Your provider
might recommend that you work with a physical therapist.
 Supportive devices: Wearing shoe inserts or a brace can
support and stabilize your joints. Using a cane or walker can
take pressure off your affected joints and help you move
safely.
 Heat and cold therapies: Applying heat or cold to your
affected joints might help relieve pain and stiffness. Your
provider will tell you how often (and for how long) you should
apply a heating pad, ice packs or a cool compress.
 NSAIDs
 ARTHRODESIS:- surgical immobilization of joint by
fusion of bones.
Arthrodesis (Fusion)In this process, any diseased
cartilage between the two bones is removed, the bone
ends are cut off, and the two bone ends are connected
to one another using metal internal fixation, such as
screws and plates
 JOINT REPLACEMENT:-surgical procedure to replace
some or all of a joint.
 surgeon will remove the worn-out or damaged parts of
your natural joint and replace them with an artificial
joint (a prosthesis) made of metal, plastic or ceramic.
Total joint replacement (total arthroplasty): During a total
joint replacement, your surgeon will replace all the parts
of your joint with a prosthetic joint.
 Partial joint replacement (partial arthroplasty): A
partial joint replacement surgeon will replace only
some parts of your joint.
 DEFINITION:-It is chronic inflammatory
autoimmune disease of joint in which
destruction of connective tissue and
synovial membrane with in joint.
 Exact cause unknown, RA caused by
combination of genetics, hormones and
environmental factors.
 Infection, smoking or physical or emotional
stress may be triggering.
Most common RA is PIP (proximal intes
phalangeal joint) MCP (Meracarpo-
phalangeal joint)
 Polyarthritis (synovitis) of hand

used to slow or stop immune system attacking
joints. Help Relieve inflammation32
 methotrexate
 sulfasalazine
 Hydroxychloroquine
2.NSAIDs
3.Cortisteroids
Non pharmacological management:-
Provide ROM
Apply parrafinbath(mixture of 15-30ml mineral oil to
1 pound of paraffin wax)
Avoid weight bearing on inflamed joint
 ARTHRODESIS:-Arthrodesis (Fusion)In this
process, any diseased cartilage between the
two bones is removed, the bone ends are cut
off, and the two bone ends are connected to
one another using metal internal fixation,
such as screws and plates.
 SYNOVECTOMY:-is a procedure where the
synovial tissue surrounding a joint is
removed. This procedure is typically
recommended to provide relief from a
condition in which the synovial membrane or
the joint lining becomes inflamed and
irritated and is not controlled by medication
alone
 ARTHROPLASTY (joint replacement)
Joints can become infected through spread of
pathogens from other parts of the body
(hematogenous spread) or directly through
trauma or surgical instrumentation, causing
septic arthritis.
single knee or hip joints are most commonly
infected in patients with septic arthritis,
 Gram positive organism common eg.
Staphylococcus aureus , streptococcus
,H.influenza .
 risk include older adults, particularly those older
than 80 years; people with comorbid conditions
such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, skin
infection, or alcoholism.
 people with a history of a joint replacement or
other joint surgery or IV drug abuse.
 S. aureus is the most common cause of joint
infections in all age groups, followed by other
Gram- positive bacteria, including streptococci.
 Gonococcal infection may cause septic arthritis
through hematogenous spread
 painful, warm

 Systemic chills,
 fever, and
 leukocytosis are sometimes present

 Prompt treatment is essential and may save the
prosthesis for patients who have had joint
replacement surgery or prevent sepsis.
 Broad-spectrum IV antibiotics are started promptly
and then changed to organism-specific antibiotics
after culture results are available
 The IV antibiotics are continued until symptoms
resolve.
 The synovial fluid is aspirated and analyzed
periodically for sterility and decrease in WBCs.
 The primary provider may aspirate the joint with a
needle to remove excessive joint fluid, exudate,
and debris.
 Occasionally arthrotomy or arthroscopy is used to
drain the joint and remove dead tissue
 Gout a painful metabolic disorder involving
an inflammatory reaction within the joints,
usually affects the feet (especially the great
toe), hands, elbows, ankles and knees.
 Abnormal purine metabolism.Increased rate
of protein synthesis with overproduction of
uric acid or underexcertion of uric acid.
 Excessive ingestion of purines (organs meats,
shell fish,sardines).
 Increased cellular turnover, as in leukemia,
multiple myeloma other cancers.
 Altered renal tubular function
Increased Uric acid
Deposition of uric acid in soft bony tissue
It cause local inflammation and irritation
Collection of urate (salt and uric acid) called
tophi are found in cartilage of the out ear,
(pinna) joints, ligaments, bursae and tendons
These deposit accumulate, they destroy the
joins
Chronically swollen
 Sudden onset of acute pain and tenderness in one
joint.
 The skin turns red and the joints swells so that it is
warm and hypersensitive to touch.
 Fever.
 Tophi may be palpated around the fingers or
earlobes particularly if the client has chronic and
severe hyperuricemia
 The attack may last 1 to 2 week, but moderate
swelling and tenderness may persist beyond that
time.
 Repeated episodes in the same joints may deform
the joint.
 Pruritis
 History and physical examination.
 Synovial fluid aspiration with the help
Needle-like monosodium urate crystals in
synovial fluid (shown by needle aspiration) or
tissue sections of tophaceous deposits
hyperuricemia
 Elevated 24-hour urine uric acid (usually
higher in secondary than in primary gout).
 X-rays initially normal; in chronic gout,
damage of articular.
 Gout is not curable condition
 Encourage a high intake of fluids to prevent renal stone
 The aim of the treatment is to decrease the amount of sodium urate
in the extracellular fluid so that deposit do not from
 Using uricosuric drugs that promotes renal execrtion of urates by
inhibiting the reasbsoprtion of uric acid in the renal tubules.
 Decreasing the ingestion of purine
PHARMACOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT
 Maintenance dosage of allopurinol
(Zyloprim) to suppress uric acid formation
or control uric acid levels, preventing
further attacks (use cautiously in patients
with renal failure).
 Colchicine to prevent recurrent acute
attacks until uric acid returns to its normal
level Immobilization and protection of the
inflamed, painful joints
SURGICAL MANAGEMENT Surgery is performed
to remove the large tophi of advanced gout.
The three main types of surgery for more
advanced gout include
1. tophi removal,
2. joint fusion, and
3. joint replacement.
