The Athrosamid® Procedure

How is Athrosamid® administered?

Step 1

Before treatment with Arthrosamid ®, you will have a local anaesthetic to numb the area around your knee. You should also be given antibiotics ahead of this to protect you from any potential risk of infection.

Step 2

Your knee is cleaned prior to treatment. Arthrosamid ® is then singularly injected into your knee’s synovial cavity. This is sometimes performed with the help of ultrasound. The needle is then removed and a plaster is placed over the injection site.

Step 3

Arthrosamid ® disperses within the synovial fluid and begins to stick and mesh with the tissue lining of the knee joint (synovial tissue).
