Filter by:Patients having juvenile idiopathic arthritis (according to ILAR criteria) with hip arthritis were divided into 3 groups. Group 1 received hip denervation and group 2 controlled and received a subcutaneous injection of saline, and group 3 received intra-articular triamcinolone. Outcome measures included pain, tenderness, range of motion, SOLAR, HARISS score. These outcomes were measured at baseline, 2 weeks, and 16 weeks
Urinary retention (UR) is a common problem in older people undergoing hip surgery. Untreated UR can lead to bladder distention and a permanent damage of the bladder, which can cause both physical and psychical suffering as well as increased costs for society. Even if national and international practice guidelines are in place for handling UR within the health care system, many fail to comply with them. Compliance to clinical practice guidelines are improved if different professions and managers collaborate as a team. In OPTION (Onset PrevenTIon of urinary retention in Orthopedic Nursing and rehabilitation) the investigators will coach multi-professional local facilitator teams in knowledge translation and implementation of UR practice as well as investigate the effects of such evidence-based practice in orthopedic nursing and rehabilitation. Implementation of research-based knowledge in evidence-based practice within an organization is complex with several known interacting factors. In a health care system these factors can be the care context, knowledge (innovation) and how the organization facilitates such implementations. The implementation strategy of OPTION utilize established theories of facilitation of knowledge implementation considering evidence and context with focus on leadership. The intervention consists of seminars and systematic support for implementation of UR-guidelines OPTION combine studies of adherence to evidence based practice regarding UR for patients over 65 years old that has undergone hip surgery and the health economic aspects of it. OPTION also contribute with improvements and increased knowledge regarding strategies to implement evidence based health care that can be used in other areas than UR and hip surgeries.
The purpose of this study is to investigate and determine the optimal zone for implanting the cup component (the ball that sits in the joint socket) in a total hip replacement. Enrolled participants will have a series of X-rays analyzed before surgery to identify their individual optimal zone or cup orientation. This information will be provided to the operating surgeon, who may use this information to influence the placement of the cup implant. Follow-up X-rays taken after surgery will determine if the cup is within the suggested optimal zone. Questionnaires will be completed before and after surgery, and data on complications or issues with the surgery (including incidents of dislocation) will be collected after surgery.
Many individuals with osteoarthritis (OA) (up to 45%) are referred to an orthopaedic surgeon for a joint replacement prematurely or will not be candidates for surgery. These individuals need appropriate (non-operative) care to help reduce their pain and enhance their mobility. We are studying the use of innovative technology to help physicians give physical activity advice for patients to become more active and provide free online resources to help patients understand OA self-management and exercise, especially when they have barriers to accessing formal care. Individuals with OA that are referred to a specialized clinic will receive one of three interventions: usual care (handout on resources), a physical activity prescription by a doctor, or the prescription and a link to a free web-based platform (website) on non-operative management of OA with patient education and exercise videos. Our goal is to help with non-operative management strategies to improve quality of life, reduce pain, improve mobility, and possibly delay or prevent a joint replacement. Osteoarthritis is a condition where people feel joint pain or stiffness. Joints are the body parts where two bones join together with softer material (cartilage) between them. In osteoarthritis, this cartilage wears down. It is the biggest cause for disability worldwide. Helping people with osteoarthritis starts with education, physical activity, and physiotherapy. Doctors can also prescribe braces, injections or medications. For severe osteoarthritis when nothing else helps, surgery can be done to replace the joint. Doctors often refer patients for surgery too soon. Skipping steps of care may mean unnecessary surgery and longer wait times. The Musculoskeletal Rapid Access Clinic (now called Clinic) in London was set up to solve these problems. They screen patients before referring them to a surgeon, and do not refer almost half of patients. Our goal is to support these patients with new ways to make their non-surgical treatment better. The first way is through physical activity 'prescription'. It works well for other chronic conditions and patients say it helps. We don't know how well it works for people with osteoarthritis. Most doctors have little time, training or experience for prescribing physical activity. Technology can make it easier for doctors and patients. We have designed a tool to help doctors prescribe physical activity and a smartphone app to track patient activity. We have also created a free website. This includes patient education, exercise videos, and virtual physiotherapy. This can be important for individuals who can't access in-person care.
Total hip replacement (THR) is being considered as one of the most effective medical procedures. Since its introduction, there was a worldwide debate over proper implant selection in terms of size, bearing type and shape. The diameter of used femoral heads components grew throughout the years - from 22 mm in the 1960s to 32 mm in the 2000s, which is the most commonly used size nowadays. In recent years there was a visible use of large femoral heads (>=36mm) in several registers. In the USA there was a significant grow in use of this heads rising from 1% in early 200s to even 58% in 2009. There is a strong evidence data and many researchers concerning range of movement, risk of dislocation, functional results, pain and prosthesis wear depending of femoral head size. In terms of gait characteristics there are several deviations reported concerning both patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA) and following THR. There is a lack of literature concerning influence of used implants on gait parameters and whether this goal of the surgery can be achieved. The aim of this study was to assess potential differences of lower limb biomechanics during gait in patients following total hip replacement surgery depending on femoral head diameter and compare them to the normal gait of healthy volunteers. As a secondary outcome authors wanted to inspect correlation between gait parameters and patient-reported outcome.
The purpose of the study is to compare the effect of whey protein and collagen on fat free mass, muscle strength, functional ability, wound healing and life quality in elderly patients undergoing elective knee- or hip surgery (defined as elective knee- or hip arthroplasty). The patients are admitted at the department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Herlev Gentofte Hospital.
This study will look to determine two different types of physical therapy regimens in patients who undergo anterior total hip replacement. We will compare the results of two groups. The first group, the "Formal Physical Therapy" group, will undergo standard physical therapy following their surgery. They will see a physical therapist in a physical therapy office after their surgery. Here, the therapist will work with the patient to strengthen muscles and improve their walking. The second group, the "Self-directed Physical Therapy" group, will undergo physical therapy in the comfort of their own home using common household items (chairs, steps, etc). These patients will be given a list of exercises and stretches to perform on their own. It is our goal to prove that formal physical therapy is not needed after anterior hip replacements.
Psychosocial conditions are common in young adults with hip pain including depression, anxiety, pain catastrophizing, and narcotic use. The incidence of these conditions is not well defined. Interventions to optimize psychosocial conditions with non-surgical or surgical treatments has not been investigated. The goal of this project is to determine the incidence of psychosocial conditions in the young adult population with hip pain and determine if cognitive based therapy can improve clinical outcomes in these individuals.
The objective of this consecutive series PMCF study is to collect data confirming safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Taperloc Complete stems when used for primary or revision total hip arthroplasty (implants) at 1,3,5,7 and 10-year follow-up*. Since Taperloc Complete was introduced to the EU in 2010, all available retrospective data will be collected from each patient and a prospective aspect to the study will be necessary to reach the 10-year time point.
The objective of this consecutive series PMCF study is to collect data confirming safety, performance and clinical benefits of the M/L Taper with Kinectiv Technology Stems and Necks when used for primary or revision total hip arthroplasty (implants) at 1,2,5 and 10-year follow-up*. ML Taper with Kinectiv Technology has been on the market since 2008, but has insufficient long term clinical data. Therefore, a prospective aspect to the study will be necessary to reach the 10-year time point.
