Official Title Biomechanical Metrics of Movement Relative to Total Knee Arthroplasty

Purpose

This study aims to understand how a total knee replacement surgery (TKR) affects muscle function and movement in the lower body. It focuses on four key areas:

1. Examining how TKR changes the way muscles work in the lower body.

2. Exploring how these muscle changes relate to the forces people experience when walking and doing daily activities after surgery.

3. Connecting muscle function to how well patients feel and move after TKR.

4. Identifying different types of TKR patients based on their physical traits, movement patterns, and medical history to see how they compare.

Official Title Radiotracer Imaging of Lower Extremity Skeletal Muscle Perfusion in Patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to look at a new method to evaluate blood flow to the calves and feet. 

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) patient outcomes will be evaluated for up to 12 months after their revascularization procedure to assess how early changes in SPECT-derived foot perfusion relate to rates of diabetic wound healing and limb salvage. Outcomes will be specifically evaluated at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after revascularization at the time of their follow-up clinic visits to the OSU Comprehensive Wound Center at OSU Hospital East. Primary outcomes of interest will be 1) changes in wound size and healing, 2) minor or major amputations of the lower extremity, and 3) any subsequent interventional procedures, such as balloon angioplasty, stenting, or surgical bypass.
