UK Arthrosamid Injections For Sustained Knee Osteoarthritis Relief Announced

With Arthrosamid being approved for use in European markets, the practice is now offering the treatment as a non-invasive option for individuals suffering from knee osteoarthritis. As a private practice, MSK Doctors can see interested patients without a referral from a physician or the NHS.

Arthrosamid has been in development for over 20 years, and it was conceived as a long-lasting, non-surgical treatment for knee osteoarthritis. During the procedure, a non-biodegradable hydrogel is injected into the knee, where it adheres to the synovial membrane, providing mechanical support and additional cushioning, as well as lubricating the joint – reducing pain caused by friction and inflammation. Because this hydrogel is synthetic in nature, it will not be absorbed into the body, remaining permanently attached to the synovial tissue and offering patients long-lasting pain relief.

As one of the pioneers of Arthrosamid in the UK and a key researcher since 2019, MSK Doctors has created a unique injection protocol to account for differences in physiology and the degree of osteoarthritis. This method is based on the MSK-K1 and MSK/LCC injection protocol, which has been shown to have fewer side effects and results in less pain than a typical injection.

The process begins with a remote motion analysis, which allows the surgeon to examine the patient’s range of motion and knee function. Once this has been determined, the Arthrosamid injection will be administered via guided ultrasound. Throughout the procedure, the patient will also receive IV antibiotics to eliminate the risk of infection.

After treatment, patients will be able to walk immediately, and MSK Doctors will perform a second motion analysis to assess any improvements. The practice will also schedule follow-up appointments to track recovery progress and offer guidance on proper rehabilitation.

MSK Doctors adds that Arthrosamid injections are generally well-tolerated, and there have been no recorded cases of long-term side effects from individuals who have participated in clinical trials. Although some swelling and pain at the injection site is expected, this will typically disappear within a few days to weeks.
