Filter by:The investigators aimed to compare two doses of intravenous (IV) tranexamic acid (TXA) with a combined single dose of topical and IV TXA on haemoglobin decline 24 hours after total joint arthroplasties. The investigators conducted randomized, double-blind trial. The participants were randomized to either intrvenous group receiving 2 doses of 1 gram TXA in intravenous route 3 hours apart, or a combined application group receiving the first 1 gram IV and the topical dose was 1.5 gram after reduction of the fascia.
The shortening of the length of stay implies rethinking the perioperative management (around the operative period), which precedes and immediately follows the operation, in order to ensure a good preparation of the patient and an adequate postoperative follow-up. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect on the length of stay of adding an individualized preoperative preparation and education session to the current protocol in the musculoskeletal department at the CHUV in patients undergoing total hip or knee replacement surgery. The implementation of a targeted, low-impact immediate postoperative follow-up could contribute to improving the detection of complications, preventing avoidable readmissions, improving the management of pain and adverse events, supporting the patient and responding to difficulties encountered in the patient's living environment. However, the actual added value for the patient and for the healthcare system has yet to be specified. As patients' needs and resources vary, it would also be useful to better determine the profile of patients for whom a pre- and postoperative session provides significant added value.
A clinical trial investigating the effect of a combined locoregional anesthesia technique on the postoperative analgesia outcomes after a total hip arthroplasty. A PENG block will be used in combination with a LFCN block. The results will be compared to a control group that is solely treated with intravenous analgesia. This technique aims to provide improved pain scores after surgery without interference of revalidation.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation on gait recovery in subjects after knee or hip arthroplasty. Assessment is performed the day after admission (T0) and the day of discharge (T1), in a post-acute rehabilitation hospital, through an optoelectronic system (BTS DX-400). Other functional scales are administered to the subjects. during the rehabilitation period, subjects received conventional physiotherapy.
The purpose of this study was to determine 1) if pregabalin, when given 37.5 mg twice on the day before surgery, would be effective in reducing the early postoperative side effects including dizziness, nausea, vomiting and sedation of receiving pregabalin 75mg two hours pre-operatively and 75mg per day until the third postoperative day; and 2) whether this intervention affected the opioids consumption, and independent transfers at six hours post-op, time to readiness for independent transfers, time to readiness for discharge and pain or not.
The intention of this Post Market Clinical Follow-Up study is to obtain mid-term results of the TRJ® endoprosthesis. Aim is to include those patients that have received a TRJ® Total Hip Arthroplasty in 2012 and already did participated in a clinical study taking place in 2014 to obtain 2 years results
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is considered an efficacious procedure for relieving pain and disability in patients with hip osteoarthritis. However, 6-12 months post-surgery physical activity level is unchanged compared to pre-surgery and still considerably lower than that of healthy peers. Increasing physical activity after THA may enhance the outcome of the THA because a graded relationship between physical activity level and functional performance has been documented. Six-8 months after THA physical function is only recovered to about 80% of that of healthy peers and older adults still seem to be at increased risk of frailty. Furthermore, these patients continue to impose higher healthcare costs than an age- and sex-matched reference population which potentially could be related to the functional status that is not completely regained. Finally, patients with hip osteoarthritis can have extensive comorbidity thus increasing physical activity after THA could be a simple and relatively inexpensive method for improving general health, which in turn may decrease healthcare costs. The reasons for the lack of increase in physical activity despite increased capability after THA are unknown but it may be related to the sedentary behavior adopted by the patients prior to surgery and uncertainty. A systematic review has illuminated that patient-reported barriers to engaging in physical activity after THA are largely related to limited or inadequate information or education culminating in uncertainty about 'doing the right thing' for both the individual's recovery and the longevity of the joint replacement. Few studies have investigated the effects of specific interventions to increase physical activity after THA. Promising results have been shown from physical activity sensors in combination with e.g. goal setting. None of these studies have addressed the patient-reported barriers to physical activity regarding uncertainty and limited education. This trial aims to investigate the effect of adding a pedometer-driven, behavior change intervention to usual rehabilitation care 3 months after THA to increase physical activity compared to usual rehabilitation care alone (control). Outcomes are taken 3 (baseline), 6 (after the intervention period) and 12 months after THA (follow-up). Hypothesis: the behavior change intervention will increase the proportion that completes ≥8,000 steps per day 6-month post-surgery to 50% versus 30% in the control group.
The randomised clinical trial investigates the effect of using a clinical decision support system (CDSS) aiming to provide the patients and surgeons with greater transparency concerning the obtainable changes in function and health related quality of life (HRQoL) when patients are to decide if they should undergo hip- or knee replacement surgery.
PaRIS-IOR is a prospective observational study that aims to collect and analyze functional outcomes and quality of life reported by patients undergoing elective hip, knee and shoulder arthroplasty at the IRCCS Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute (IOR).
Background: Total hip- and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA) is recommended for relieving pain and restoring function for end-stage osteoarthritis, when non-surgical treatment has failed to relieve symptoms. Following THA and TKA post-discharge physical rehabilitation is common practice, but vary significantly regarding content, duration, intensity and mode of delivery. Recent systematic reviews have found home-based rehabilitation to be as good as outpatient rehabilitation in terms of pain and physical function. Additionally, no long-term benefits seem to persist compared to minimal or no intervention following THA or TKA; questioning the true effectiveness of postoperative rehabilitation. However, a true "no intervention" (e.g. no prescribed exercises) has never been investigated following total THA or TKA. The purpose of this present trial is to compare the effectiveness of telerehabilitation, unsupervised rehabilitation and no rehabilitation to enhance recovery following THA and TKA. Methods: This pragmatic, randomised controlled trial will include 168 patients following discharge after THA or TKA. Patients will be randomized into one of the three 6-week interventions: telerehabilitation, unsupervised rehabilitation or no intervention. The trial is designed as a superiority trial to test the hypothesis that rehabilitation (telerehabilitation and unsupervised rehabilitation) is superior to no rehabilitation. The primary outcome will be the difference between intervention groups in terms of the mean score of the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)/ the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)-subscale: function of daily living at first follow-up (end of the 6-week intervention). Additional follow-up are scheduled at 3 and 12 months. Outcome assessors and data analysts are blinded to group allocation. Discussion: As the number of THA and TKA procedures are expected to increase, the need to find effective postoperative rehabilitation strategies are warranted. Knowledge on the effectiveness of the three investigated rehabilitation strategies will help guide the future direction of post-discharge rehabilitation following THA and TKA.
