Feasibility is assessed by adherence to the treatment, inclusion and dropout rate, adverse events and the patient appreciation and motivation, as assessed by questionnaires.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
The incidence of patients with sarcopenic obesity (SO) in orthopedic surgery is growing, with a reported prevalence of 3 up to 35% 1. The poor skeletal muscle function, decreased physical func-tioning and increased inflammation associated with SO gives an additional risk of postoperative complications 1,2. The combination of exercise and dietary intervention seems the best strategy to counteract SO 3. However, studies investigating the effect of a combined approach as a preoperative intervention in patients with SO have not been conducted yet. Therefore, we aim to evaluate, both in terms of feasibility and effectiveness, a combined preoperative nutrition and exercise intervention in patients who receive a total hip or knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA).
Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and to determine the preliminary effects on physical functioning, muscle function, body composition and postoperative recovery of a combined preoperative nutrition and exercise intervention in patients with sarcopenic obesity who receive a total hip or knee arthroplasty.
Study design: A pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT)
Study population: Thirty-four patients with sarcopenic obesity who are on the waiting list for a THA/TKA will be included.

Doel van het onderzoek
The intervention is feasible for patients with osteoarthritis and sarcopenic obesity before total hip and knee surgery (and will improve physical functioning and outcome).
Onderzoeksopzet
pre- (7 weeks and 2-4 days before) and postoperative (clinical period and 6 weeks after surgery)
Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
The intervention group will follow a supervised (by a physiotherapist) exercise intervention of 6 weeks (twice a week) with progressive strength training and aerobic training. This will be combined with a nutritional intervention (by a dietician) focusing on optimal protein intake, i.e. 1.2 g / kg of ad-justed body weight per day divided over the day. The dietary intervention will consist of a comprehensive screening, determining intake, and nutritional advice during 3 repeat consultations.
The control group will follow usual care.
