Intra-articular (IA) corticosteroids and/or oral opioids are often recommended for the management of knee OA pain. There are, however, concerns regarding their safety and tolerability.Study Question: Do patients diagnosed with knee OA show a decrease in opioids or IA corticosteroid injections prescribed/administered in hospitals following hylan G-F 20 treatment?Study Design: This case-crossover, retrospective study using Health Facts®, a de-identified electronic health records database, enrolled patients ≥ 18 years with knee OA treated with hylan G-F 20 between January 1, 2000 and March 31, 2016, with data within 6 months before/after treatment.Measures and Outcomes: Primary endpoints compared days on opioids, amounts of opioids, and number of IA corticosteroid injections before/after hylan G-F 20 treatment via paired t-tests.Results: A total of 513 patients were qualified for analysis. In the opioid cohort, the average total number of days on opioids (N = 50; 5.0 vs 13.5 days; P = 0.007) and average total amount of opioids (N = 44; 165.4 morphine mg equivalents [MME] vs 493.7 MME; P = 0.013) were lower 6 months after hylan G-F 20 treatment than 6 months before treatment. In the IA corticosteroid cohort, the average number of IA corticosteroid injections decreased after hylan G-F 20 treatment (N = 36; 0.56 in the 6-month follow-up vs 1.39 before treatment; P < 0.0001). Additional time frames of 1– 5 months before and after treatment were examined; similar conclusions were drawn for patients with > 2 months of data.Conclusion: Patients with knee OA previously treated with opioids or IA corticosteroid injections who received hylan G-F 20 demonstrated statistically significant decreases in these medications > 2 months following hylan G-F 20 treatment versus > 2 months before treatment.Keywords: corticosteroids, opioids, osteoarthritis, viscosupplementation, hyaluronic acid, hylan G-F 20Khangulov VZhang XMunson SHPeyerl FRey FDove Medical Pressarticlecorticosteroidsopioidsosteoarthritisviscosupplementationhyaluronic acidhylan g-f 20Diseases of the musculoskeletal systemRC925-935ENOpen Access Rheumatology: Research and Reviews, Vol Volume 12, Pp 79-85 (2020) |
