Filter by:The purpose of this post-market clinical follow up study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the SYMBOL range of medical devices. The study will evaluate the outcome of Total Hip Arthroplasty using medical devices from SYMBOL range over a period of 10 years.
Recent research has demonstrated that a hemiarthroplasty (replacement of half the joint) has lower rates of post-surgical complications than a total hip arthroplasty does. However, surgeons tend to vary in their approach to hemiarthroplasties. The lateral approach, which involves making an incision at the side of the patient's hip, requires surgeons to cut through the muscle to access the hip, which has been associated with greater muscle damage and slower rates of recovery. On the other hand, the direct anterior approach does not require the cutting of the patient's muscle and is therefore associated with minimal muscle damage and faster rates of recovery. This study will aim to assess the impact of the surgical approach (Direct Anterior Approach vs. Lateral approach) during hemiarthroplasty on patients' short-term mobility, quality of life, function, pain, and safety parameters.
Femoral neck fracture is a common type of fracture in the elderly. For those without significant displacement (Garden I, II), more hip-preserving treatment strategies are adopted. The classic parallel hollow screw internal fixation for hip-preserving treatment is based on the sliding compression theory, and a clinical debate has gradually emerged, that is, the positive triangle And the two different spatial distribution methods of hollow nails and inverted triangle, which one is better. In addition, the distribution of hollow nails in actual operations is difficult to achieve a standard triangular distribution, and the damage to the epiphyseal vessels in the femoral head caused by repeated drilling of the guide needle cannot always be ignored. The relationship between the distribution and injury of blood vessels in the femoral head and the spatial distribution of hollow screws on the prognosis of head necrosis of non-displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly is worth studying. This topic is based on the three advantages of TianJi orthopedic robots used in the elderly femoral neck fracture hollow nail hip-saving surgery: 1.standardized triangular nail placement with strong repeatability; 2. precise nail placement to reduce the risk of screw penetration; 3. limited guide pins The number of drill holes is to rule out repeated drill holes that damage the blood vessels in the femoral head. The preoperative and postoperative vascular injury in the femoral head (enhanced MRI of the femoral head) was compared to assess the prognosis of patients, and to clarify the influence of the spatial distribution of hollow screws on the blood supply and prognosis of the femoral neck fracture in the elderly.
Rational for conducting the study: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the most feared complication following prosthetic replacement of the hip joint and is associated with increased mortality, morbidity and economic burden. The aim of the trial is to investigate whether the risk of periprosthetic joint infection after treatment with hemiarthroplasty performed due to femoral neck fracture is reduced after the use of dual-impregnated antibiotic loaded cement. The primary outcome variable is the incidence of periprosthetic joint infection within one year after the index procedure. Secondary outcome variables include the occurrence of re-operations for any reason, bacteriology, antibiotic treatment, mortality and health care costs.
The investigators are going to evaluate if periarticular corticosteroid injection during endoprothesis implantation can lead to any advantage to the patients, namely if it can reduce post-operative pain, lenght and cost of hospitalisation, use of analgesics drugs.
Neck of femur (NOF) fracture is a common presentation to the emergency department, particularly in our older population. NOF fracture is associated with a high social and economic cost with significant effects on patients' quality of life. Analgesia and ambulation are important determinants of outcome following NOF surgery. We propose to compare whether PENG or Femoral Nerve Block is associated with a greater degree of quadriceps motor dysfunction.
Dislocated femoral neck fractures are routinely treated with cemented hemiartroplasty and the direct lateral approach (Hardinge) has commonly been used in Norway. The investigators have lately witnessed a significant change in the prefered surgical approaches in total hip arthroplasty (THA) in favor of the posterior and anterior approaches. The direct lateral approach has in THA, more or less, been abandoned in Norway. Numerous studies have reported superior results using the posterior and anterior approahes compared to the lateral approach.
This study is a prospective randomized controlled clinical study. Patients with femoral neck fracture (AO classification 31-B) will be randomly divided into three-screw fixation group and four-screw fixation group. The internal fixation failure rate (IFFR) and functional outcomes of the two groups will be compared and the patients will be followed up to 2 years after surgery.
This study aimes to prove that osseointegration of hydroxyapatite coated stem is possible for patients over 80 years with femoral neck fracture, without the risks of cemented stems. The hydroxyapatite has a local effect which can improve cortical index.
This study will evaluate clinical outcome on patients who undergo ceramic on ceramic (CoC) bearing total hip arthroplasty (THA) using Delta TT cup.
