Filter by:This prospective randomised clinical trial aims to test if virtual reality (VR) simulation helps acquire basic surgical skills in total hip arthroplasty (THA) by medical students. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Can VR simulation develop the medical students' basic surgical skills and medical knowledge in THA? 2. Will VR simulation become a part of orthopaedic surgical education? Participants will be randomised into two groups (VR and control). 1. They will be asked to watch a very detailed video explaining basic rules and skills in implanting the acetabular cup and femoral stem in THA 2. The VR group will perform at least three VR THA sessions concerning cup (inclination) and stem (version) implantation 3. Then all participants will be asked to implant a cup and a stem in a predefined inclination and version, respectively, in sawbones 4. The mean difference between the predefined and the actual implanted cup inclination and version of the stem will be compared between groups
Complete motorsparing protocol (CMP) has been developed to try to minimize the motor nerve block that is created when using Facia iliaca nerve block. The blocks performed in the (CMP) are the cluneal nerve block, Pericapsular nerve group block and lateral femoral cutaneous block. On the clinical trial, the investigators will randomize the participants that meet criteria to CMP or Fascia iliaca Block and compare the amount of opioid needed post op during 24 hours and their pain scores.
General anesthesia (GA) and paralysis are factors which facilitate atelectasis formation, especially in obese patients. Spontaneous breathing can reduce the amount of atelectasis. In this study, the investigators are comaparing obese patients undergoing hip arthroplasty in GA versus spinal anesthesia. Distribution of ventilation during and after anesthesia is assessed by eletrical impedance tomography (EIT).
High-volume infiltration analgesia may be effective in postoperative pain management following total hip arthroplasty. In this randomized, double-blind trial patients undergoing bilateral hip arthoplasty are randomized to receive high-volume local anesthetic infiltration in one hip and similar infiltration with saline (placebo) in the other hip.
