简要总结
Total Knee Replacement (TKR) significantly improves function, pain, and overall quality of life in patients with end-stage arthritis of the knee. However, studies show that obesity increases complications and costs associated with TKR. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) clinical guidelines recommend that patients with a BMI > 25kg/m2 lose 5% of their body weight prior to surgery. Consequently, although it is not clear how to patients or providers achieve weight loss in this population, some providers and hospitals decline to perform TKR in patients with obesity. Low Calorie meal replacement diets (LCD) are a feasible way to safely promote short-term weight loss of 8-15% at 3-6 months prior to some elective surgeries.
This is a pilot efficacy study to test whether a short-term program using a 3-month LCD leads to weight loss and improved patient reported and functional outcomes. 75 patients eligible for knee replacement surgery and willing to undergo non-operative weight management treatment at NYU Langone Comprehensive Obesity Center. This study will establish feasibility and weight loss outcomes in preparation for a multicenter effectiveness trial.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in mobility during 30-sec chair stand
时间窗: 18 Months
Change in mobility during 40-meter fast paced walk
时间窗: 18 Months
Change in weight
时间窗: up to 18 Months
Patients who have had recent knee replacement will be weighed at screening, week 5-7, week 11-13, and 30-120 days post surgery
Change in quality of life measured by SF-36 questionnaire
时间窗: 18 Months
The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability i.e., a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability. To calculate the scores it is necessary to purchase special software. Pricing depends on the number of scores that the researcher needs to calculate. The eight sections are: * vitality * physical functioning * bodily pain * general health perceptions * physical role functioning * emotional role functioning * social role functioning * mental health
