Filter by:Swiss legislation requires health service providers to collect such information. of medical quality indicators as part of the quality and performance audit (Article 22a KVG). In addition, comparisons of clinics or specialist specialists on cost and quality of results are required (Art. 49 (8)). Currently, the quality of a medical therapy is evaluated rather negatively on the absence (or occurrence) of complications. In contrast, however, the goal of therapy must be to improve or maintain the health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Accordingly, the Swiss Society of Surgery (SGC-SSC), in collaboration with the Association for Quality Assurance in Surgery (AQC), has developed a minimum dataset designed to assess the quality of life of patients after surgical intervention. In order to enable Switzerland to be comparatively independent of the discipline, generic (in the Research Plan - MIDAS -V2, date 24.05.2017 Page 5/57 Contrary to disease-specific) survey instruments proposed that cover the general quality of life in its different facets, regardless of the function of individual organ systems. The complication documentation was not completely abandoned in this proposal, but is only a quality indicator among many due to patient-related outcome measurements. However, the development of a minimal data set with quality indicators that are applicable across all surgical sub-disciplines for evaluating the quality of treatment of acute and chronic diseases raises a number of fundamental questions that can only be answered to a limited extent without empirical studies. Five essential questions are: I. Is it sufficient to work with generic quality of life tools or is it necessary to use disease / indication specific instruments or functional tests? II. Which is the best, solid time for a follow-up? III. Is it possible and useful to make a third-party determination of the quality of life in patients with limited cognitive abilities? IV. Which preoperative risk factors should be documented so that sufficient adjustment for case mix differences in hospital comparisons can be made? V. Which perioperative and postoperative factors, in particular complications, must be raised beyond the quality of life, as they reflect an independent aspect of quality?
The investigators therefore propose to undertake a further randomised controlled trial comparing the sliding hip screw (SHS) with the Targon PFT intramedullary nail. The aim is to see if the summation of the first trial of 600 participants comparing the sliding hip screw with the Targon PF nails, in conjunction with this study of 400 participants with the updated Targon PFT nail produces results that convincingly demonstrate that this particular design of implant is superior to the sliding hip screw. Because of the financial issues involved a cost benefit comparison for the two procedures is planned at the completion of the study. Primary outcome measures will be regain of walking ability. Secondary outcome measures recorded with include mortality, length of surgery, operative blood loss, blood transfusion, post-operative complications, hospital stay, need for subsequent revision surgery and degree of residual pain.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether patients undergoing surgical treatment (hip arthroscopy) of FAI syndrome will positively benefit from capsular closure, in terms of higher scores in validated patient reported outcome measurements, compared to a Group of patients with FAI syndrome where the capsule is left open at the end of the surgical procedure.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of post-operative opioid use after two different educational interventions. The investigators will compare changes in pain, disability and sleep between groups 6 months after elective lower extremity surgery.
The Investigator's hypothesis is that capsular repair (after CAM or mixed Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) surgery) requiring moderate capsulotomy, would result in similar patient outcomes in the short, mid and long term, both clinically and radiographically, compared to those without capsular repair. The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the clinical efficacy with regards to pain, range of motion and return to work and activities of daily living. Secondary objective is to evaluate radiographic characteristics between both groups.
The purpose of this research is to determine differences in outcomes in patients who do, or do not, receive regional anesthesia (a fascia iliaca block) prior to undergoing hip arthroscopy with labral repair and/or debridement and osteoplasty for hip impingement
The objective of this study is to analyze subjects having a normal hip and compare the in vivo kinematics to subjects requiring a total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to having a diseased hip and then later post-operative to their implanted hip. Ten subjects will have a normal hip, ten hips will be diseased, requiring a THA and then those ten diseased hips will be re-analyzed at least six months post-operatively after implantation of a THA.
The purpose of this study is to determine if trigger point dry needling (TDN) is as effective as cortisone injection (CI) in reducing pain and improving function in patients with greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS).
A randomized double-blind clinical trial was performed. There were 4 groups according to catheter placement and infusion constituents: 1) Intraarticular catheter + anesthetics; 2) Intraarticular catheter +placebo; 3) Subfascial catheter + anesthetics; 4) Subfascial catheter + placebo. The anesthetics infusion contained bupivacaine (bolus + continuous perfusion up to 36 hours). The placebo solution consisted in physiological serum (bolus + continuous perfusion up to 36 hours). Randomization was performed in the hospital pharmacy and the surgeon kept out the surgical field when the resident placed the catheter. The same conventional analgesic schedule was prescribed to all patients: PCA (patient controlled analgesia) + paracetamol 1g/6h + dexketoprofen 50mg/12h. The pain was evaluated by means of PCA (patient controlled analgesia) shots and the VAS (visual analog scale). Side effects, time to start rehabilitation and time to discharge were also analyzed. A statistical analysis was performed to compare all this variables between the 4 groups (SPSS 18.0).
M.M.A.TECH Ltd. product is an Acetabular Liner Family produced of an advanced polyimide - MP-1™. M.M.A.TECH Ltd. produces the Liners according to EN ISO 13485:2012 approved manufacturing process and supplies them to the customer. The aim of this study is to evaluate, in the frame of PMCF, the safety and performance of using AL-X MP1 Polyimide Acetabular liners in Total Hip Replacement surgery by clinical following up of patients for a period of 2 years .
