Filter by:This randomized-controlled trial will study on the effect of testosterone therapy on patients undergoing total hip replacement. Subjects will be male patients > 50 years with testosterone deficiency undergoing total hip replacement due to severe degenerative joint disease. All participants will receive a total hip replacement and will be randomized to either testosterone therapy or placebo. A total of 80 subjects will be recruited randomized into 2 groups of 40 subjects. Testosterone therapy will be administered once to each patient at 2 weeks before surgery. The long-term follow up will be the same as all patients with patient-reported outcomes after total hip replacement, VAS for pain and satisfaction at regular intervals.
Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized, Comparative Study Measuring the Effects on Clinical Outcomes, Patient Satisfaction, Costs and Benefits of Combined Pre-, Intra- and Postoperative Patient Data for THA and TKA Patients Using an APP Based Sensor for Home Exercise Performance Before and After Operation
The overall objective of the proposed study is to quantify bone loss around non-cemented total hip replacement femoral and acetabular components using DEXA analysis in patients receiving Prolia (denosumab) in the first year of follow up after total hip joint replacement surgery, and to compare this to bone loss in control hip replacement patients receiving a placebo. The primary outcome variable will be the difference in loss of bone mineral density between the experimental group taking denosumab and the placebo control group, calculated as a percentage, in Gruen Zone 7, the proximal medial calcar region of the femur, over a follow-up period of 12 post-operative months. The secondary objectives will be to assess the following variables: - Bone turnover differences between the experimental group taking denosumab and the placebo control group, utilizing serum C-terminal cross-linking telopeptides of type I collagen (CTX-I) (bone resorption) and N-terminal propeptides of type I procollagen (P1NP) (bone formation). - Difference in loss of bone mineral density between the experimental group taking denosumab and the placebo control group, calculated as a percentage, in each of Gruen Zones 1 through 6, periprosthetic femur. - Difference in loss of bone mineral density between the experimental group taking denosumab and the placebo control group, calculated as a percentage, in each of DeLee and Charnley's Zones 1 through 3, periprosthetic acetabulum. Exploratory objectives will be to assess difference in loss of bone mineral density in the contralateral, or non-operated femur for both experimental and control groups, and to determine the role that covariates such as weight, gender, age, baseline BMD, and implant type have on percent change in BMD at 12 months.
The goal of this registry is to review the data collected and research ways to improve patient safety, quality of care, and medical decision-making, reduce medical spending, and help advance orthopedic science and bioengineering.
The purpose of this study is to determine if tranexamic acid significantly reduces blood loss and blood transfusion in revision total hip replacement. Tranexamic acid is a drug that helps to reduce blood loss during surgery. Revision total hip replacement surgery is treatment for patients who have previously had hipe replacement surgery which failed and must be repaired/replaced.
