BACKGROUND: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful condition affecting >250 million people worldwide and is a leading cause of disability. 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.
