A simple, one-step injectable hydrogel implant treatment for symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia by a qualified physician familiar with joint injections, usually as a same-day outpatient treatment. Antibiotics may be given beforehand, and the injection may sometimes be guided by ultrasound. Treatment is intended for adult patients with knee osteoarthritis and may not be suitable for everyone. Consult a doctor for suitability, contraindications, risks and aftercare.
