Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Losartan, an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB), on the formation development of arthrofibrosis in patients who have had a primary total knee arthroplasty. This study aims to assess the post-operative range of motion and the incidence of MUA within three months following the index arthroplasty in the treatment arm (losartan) and the control arm.

Primary Outcomes (2)
Change in range of motion
Baseline, Day 90
Rate of manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) after elective total knee arthroplasty
Day 90
Study Arms (2)
Losartan cohort
EXPERIMENTALPatients will initiate Losartan treatment 2 weeks pre-operatively and will continue until 4 weeks post-operatively. Range of motion will be measured as part of standard of care at the time of enrollment and at post-op office visits 2-4 weeks, 4-8 weeks and 8-20 weeks post-operatively.
Control cohort
NO INTERVENTIONNo additional steps in management are required for the control arm of the study. Range of motion will be measured as part of standard of care at the time of enrollment and at post-op office visits 2-4 weeks, 4-8 weeks and 8-20 weeks post-operatively.
Interventions
Patients will receive Losartan 12.5mg orally twice daily beginning 2 weeks preoperatively and continuing for 4 weeks postoperatively.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients are candidates for elective primary total knee arthroplasty for a diagnosis of osteoarthritis or inflammatory arthritis.
- Patients ≥18 years of age
- Patients have been medically cleared and scheduled for surgery
- Patients' primary care physician has verified that the patient can safely take the described dose of Losartan for the duration of the study period.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients already taking Losartan will not be included in the prospective study
- Patients already taking an ARB (angiotensin receptor blockers) or other ACE (Angiotensin-converting-enzyme) inhibitor
- Low blood pressure
- Currently taking hypertensive medication
- Revision surgery
- Surgery for fracture, infection, or malignancy
- Patients with a diagnosis of post-traumatic arthritis
- Bilateral, simultaneous surgery
