Benefits of Arthrosamid

Arthrosamid® Injections in Essex

Long-lasting, non-surgical treatment for knee osteoarthritis

Arthrosamid® is an innovative injectable hydrogel implant designed for the symptomatic treatment of knee osteoarthritis. It contains a 2.5% polyacrylamide hydrogel (iPAAG) and is administered as a single intra-articular injection into the knee. The treatment is designed to provide sustained reduction in knee pain and improve function without the need for surgery.

At The Arthritis Clinic in Essex, Arthrosamid® may be considered for carefully selected adults with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis, following a detailed clinical assessment. Treatment is performed using ultrasound guidance where appropriate, allowing the clinician to assess the knee and accurately guide the injection. Arthrosamid® is not suitable for everyone, and your symptoms, diagnosis, previous treatments and overall suitability will be discussed before treatment.

Clinical research has reported sustained improvements in pain, stiffness and physical function following a single Arthrosamid® injection, with published follow-up data extending to five years. However, outcomes vary between individuals and Arthrosamid® should be considered as one part of a wider approach to managing knee osteoarthritis, alongside exercise, rehabilitation, weight management where appropriate and other evidence-based treatments.

If you are looking for Arthrosamid® injections in Essex, The Arthritis Clinic provides specialist assessment and treatment from its clinic in the Billericay/Basildon area.
