Key Benefits of Arthrosamid®

Long-lasting Pain Relief

Arthrosamid® provides extended relief from knee osteoarthritis pain, with clinical studies showing sustained effectiveness for at least two years after treatment.

Minimally Invasive Procedure

The treatment is administered through a simple, outpatient injection directly into the knee joint, avoiding the need for surgery and allowing for a quick recovery.

Improved Joint Function

Arthrosamid® cushions and lubricates the knee joint, enhancing mobility and reducing stiffness, which helps you return to daily activities with greater ease.

Biocompatible and Safe

Arthrosamid® is a non-degradable hydrogel that integrates with the soft tissue in the knee, offering a high safety profile with a low risk of adverse reactions.

Rapid Recovery

Patients can typically resume normal activities shortly after the injection, as there is no need for extensive post-treatment rehabilitation.

Lasting Effects

A single injection of Arthrosamid® has been shown to provide long-term pain relief, reducing the need for repeated treatments or ongoing pain medication.

Reduced Medications

By effectively managing pain, Arthrosamid® can help decrease your reliance on daily painkillers, improving overall well-being and reducing medication side effects.

Delayed Need for Surgery

Arthrosamid® offers a viable option for patients looking to delay or avoid knee replacement surgery, providing an alternative that can help manage symptoms effectively.

Arthrosamid® Overview and Important Information

Book A Consultation
Arthrosamid® is a non-surgical treatment designed to provide long-lasting relief for individuals suffering from knee osteoarthritis. This innovative procedure involves a single injection of a non-degradable hydrogel directly into the knee joint. The hydrogel acts as a cushion, reducing pain and improving joint function by absorbing shock and lubricating the joint. The entire procedure is minimally invasive, performed on an outpatient basis, and typically takes only a few minutes. Patients can usually resume their normal activities shortly after treatment, with no need for extensive rehabilitation.

How Arthrosamid® Works

The Arthrosamid® hydrogel is biocompatible, meaning it integrates seamlessly with the soft tissues in the knee. Once injected, the hydrogel remains in place, providing continuous cushioning and support to the joint. Unlike some other treatments, Arthrosamid® does not degrade over time, which means its effects are sustained for an extended period. Clinical studies have shown that patients can experience significant pain relief and improved joint function for at least two years after a single injection.

Side Effects and Contraindications

Arthrosamid® has a strong safety profile, with few reported side effects. However, as with any medical procedure, some risks exist. The most common side effects are mild and may include temporary pain, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These symptoms typically resolve on their own within a few days. Rarely, there may be a risk of infection or an allergic reaction to the hydrogel. Arthrosamid® is not suitable for everyone. It is contraindicated in patients with active knee infections, severe knee deformities, or a known allergy to the components of the hydrogel. It is also not recommended for patients who have had recent knee surgery or who have other significant knee issues unrelated to osteoarthritis. Before undergoing Arthrosamid® treatment, a thorough evaluation by a healthcare professional is essential to determine if this treatment is the right choice for you. By understanding how the procedure works and considering the potential side effects and contraindications, you can make an informed decision about your knee osteoarthritis treatment.
