| Abstract | Background Difficulty kneeling following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains highly prevalent, and has cultural, social, and occupational implications. With no clear evidence of superiority, whether or not to resurface the patella remains debatable. This systematic review examined whether resurfacing the patella (PR) or not (NPR) influences kneeling ability following TKA. Methods This systematic review was conducted by following PRISMA guidelines. Three electronic databases were searched utilizing a search strategy developed with the aid of a department librarian. Study quality was assessed using MINROS criteria. Article screening, methodological quality assessment and data extraction were performed by two independent authors, and a third senior author was consulted if consensus was not reached. Results A total of 459 records were identified, with eight studies included in the final analysis, and all deemed to be level III evidence. The average MINORS score was 16.5 for comparative studies and 10.5 for non-comparative studies. The total number of patients was 24,342, with a mean age of 67.6 years. Kneeling ability was predominantly measured as a patient-reported outcome measure (PROM), with two studies also including an objective assessment. Two studies demonstrated a statistically significant link between PR and kneeling, with one demonstrating improved kneeling ability with PR and the other reporting the opposite. Other potential factors associated with kneeling included gender, postoperative flexion, and body mass index (BMI). Re-operation rates were significantly higher in the NPR cohort whereas PR cohorts had higher Feller scores, patient-reported limp and patellar apprehension. Conclusion Despite its importance to patients, kneeling remains not only under-reported but also ill-defined in the literature, with no clear consensus regarding the optimum outcome assessment tool. Conflicting evidence remains as to whether PR influences kneeling ability, and to clarify the situation, large prospective randomized studies are required. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
