Filter by:EUROSCUP Fixe is intended for use in primary and revision total hip replacement surgery. Hip replacement is intended to provide increased patient mobility and reduce pain by replacing the damages hip joint articulation in patients where there is evidence of sufficient sound bone to seat and support the components. As part of post market vigilance, EUROS will collect data on EUROSCUP Fixe performances and safety

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.
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.
