Filter by:This is a Post Marketing Clinical Follow Up study (PMCF) on the AVANTAGE RELOAD dual mobility system cup.
This study will investigate the effects of implantation of cemented femoral stem versus percutanous internal fixation with cannulated compression screws on hip joint function recovery, pains, femoral head collapse and sterile prosthesis loosening, peri-prosthesis infection, and the histocompatibility of prosthesis material with host tissue in the elderly patients with osteoporotic fracture of proximal femoral neck complicated by avascular necrosis of the femoral head, which will provide scientific evidence for selecting surgical methods and internal fixation/artificial prosthesis material for osteoporotic fracture of proximal femoral neck in the elderly patients.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the external validity of a randomized controlled trial comparing choice of hip arthroplasty for elderly patients (>80 years) with a displaced femoral neck fracture. The hypotheses are that patient reported hip function, quality of life are better and healthier in those included in the randomized controlled trial than those excluded. The external validity of the randomized controlled trial is acceptable. A prospective randomized controlled trial is planned and patients with a displaced femoral neck fracture will be included and randomized between either a hemiarthroplasty or total hip arthroplasty. All patients screened will be included in a prospective cohort study for evaluation of the external validity of the randomized controlled trial. The prospective cohort study will consist of 3 different groups. Patients included in the randomized controlled trial will form group 1. Patients eligible for the randomized controlled trial but did not give their informed consent and therefore excluded, form group 2. Patients with a femoral neck fracture which by any reason were excluded form group 3. Primary endpoint is patient-reported hip function (Harris hip score) and pain on the operated extremity evaluated with VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) and patient reported quality of life evaluated with EuroQol (EQ-5D). Secondary outcome measurement are the frequency of the complications, periprosthetic fracture, dislocation, revision surgery due to wound infection (deep and superficial) and loosening of the components. Baseline data, age, sex, comorbidity, cognitive status, weight, height, motor function, complications and reoperations. Follow up is performed 1-2 years after surgery. Group 1 is followed up in the ongoing randomized controlled trial by visits to the orthopedic department at Danderyd Hospital. Group 2 and 3 are followed up by telephone interview 1-2 year after surgery.
