Filter by:Hip osteoarthritis is associated with joint pain, physical disability, decreased muscle strength and poor health status, and the most common cause for total hip arthroplasty. No studies have investigated the effect of total hip arthroplasty compared to non-surgical treatment in patients with end-stage hip osteoarthritis. This comparison is of upmost importance as it is unknown whether non-surgical treatment may be used as an alternate to surgery. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether total hip arthroplasty followed by standard care is superior to progressive resistance training for improving hip function and pain in patients with end-stage hip osteoarthritis. The hypothesis is that patients treated with total hip arthroplasty will improve more than patients treated with progressive resistance training.
This study will examine alterations in muscle in individuals with hip osteoarthritis compared to individuals without hip arthritis. All individuals will receive imaging of their hip and low back muscles in order to compare differences between groups. The investigators hypothesize that there will be differences between groups and that these differences will be related to strength, functional, and balance impairments which will also be measured in all individuals.
Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are currently used for evaluating orthopaedic procedures. Nevertheless, there is no consensus in the different studies, making them difficult to compare . The score mapping (or cross walk) is a statistical model for estimating a score associated with an unmeasured score. Moreover , Minimal clinically important differences (MCID) is the smallest change in a treatment outcome that a patient would identify as important. The MCID is also not clearly identified for the French population for the hip and knee orthopaedic scores.
Psychosocial conditions are common in young adults with hip pain including depression, anxiety, pain catastrophizing, and narcotic use. The incidence of these conditions is not well defined. Interventions to optimize psychosocial conditions with non-surgical or surgical treatments has not been investigated. The goal of this project is to determine the incidence of psychosocial conditions in the young adult population with hip pain and determine if cognitive based therapy can improve clinical outcomes in these individuals.
A retrospective consecutive population of patients treated with cementless total hip arthroplasty with ceramic-on-ceramic bearing surfaces due to post-traumatic osteoarthritis due to acetabular fractures will be selected. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the long-term clinical and radiographic results of this implant in such a specific cohort. The secondary aim of the sudy is to provide the complication rate and the failure rate of the cohort. A descriptive analysis of the failures will be provided as well.
Introduction: One in four people are at risk of developing symptomatic hip OAH. Perhaps the greatest potential for improvement in OAH treatment is to approach the early stages of pathology, since total hip arthroplasty was considered 20th century surgery, with high cost-effectiveness in patients who are not responding to clinical treatment. Joint lavage with saline shows significant pain relief in patients with knee and hip OA. In addition, when the saline solution is injected under pressure, it can generate a hydraulic distension of the capsule, increasing the joint amplitude and increasing the effect of drugs injected after washing. Injection of corticosteroids (CS) is recognized for improving the effects of joint washing, pain and even viscosupplementation. In the investigators experience, lavage and infiltration of triamcinolone, lidocaine with or without hyaluronic acid led to subjective-functional improvement and range of motion of the majority of patients with OAH grades 2 and 3 of K & L undergoing the procedure. Intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) is analgesic and anti-inflammatory in addition to promoting better distribution of forces, lowering pressure by weight and recovering the viscoelastic properties of synovial fluid, i.e., mechanical effects. In previous studies by the investigators, the addition of hilano to the lavage and injection of triamcinolone and local anesthetic led to gains in joint amplitude that were maintained over a year. Objective: To evaluate whether lavage followed by injection of triamcinolone, ropivacaine and 4 mL of hylan in the affected joint (Hilano) improves function, range of motion, pain, quality of life and muscle strength in patients with OAH in the early stages METHODS: 48 patients from the public network attended by the Orthopedics and Traumatology Institute of the General Hospital of the Medical School of the University of São Paulo, already identified with bilateral OA of the hip submitted to THR in one limb and the other limb presenting OA mild or moderate with indication of non-surgical treatment will be submitted to lavage, saline infiltration and CS (control group) or lavage, saline infiltration, CS and Hilano. Patients will be assessed at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after the procedure using standardized questionnaires (WOMAC and Lequesne), quality of life scales (Euroqol-EQ-5D-5L), pain, range of motion and strength using an isokinetic dynamometer.
A Quality Study in the use of Post-Anaesthesia Care Unit(PACU) in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty, and the ability to bypass this unit. The investigators wish to investigate the amount of patients who is required to be secondary admitted to the PACU, after primary discharge from the operating room to the surgical ward, thereby bypassing the PACU.
The objective of this study is to evaluate patient perspective on telemedicine used in 3 week post operative visits for knee and hip arthroplasty. It is hypothesized that patient satisfaction with telemedicine follow-up is equal to patient satisfaction with in-office followup. Patient satisfaction will be assessed at the 3-week and 9-week post-operative timepoints.
Hypothesis: The spa therapy treatment could improve health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in subjects with knee and/or hip osteoarthritis, and patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Main objective: Analyze if HRQOL in patients with knee and/or hip osteoarthritis, and patients with rheumatoid arthritis is modified by spa therapy treatment in the spa of Fitero (Spain). Design: Prospective observational study Participants: Fitero's spa users aged between 45-80 years old, diagnosed with knee and/or hip osteoarthritis, and also with rheumatoid arthritis. At least 40 patients of each type will be included in the study. Participants must be receiving a treatment of at least ten days. Main Variable: The scores obtained in the Euroqol5Dimensions-5Levels questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) (for all subjects), the Western Ontario MacMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire, for subjects with knee and/or hip osteoarthritis, and the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), for subjects with rheumatoid arthritis. Other variables: sociodemographic, anthropometric, clinics, and related with spa treatment. Follow-up duration: 9 months.
This study evaluates the effects of various types of ultrasound therapy: continuous, pulsed, sham ultrasound and ultrasound combined with electrotherapy in patients with hip osteoarthritis. Beside ultrasound therapy, patients received usual physiotherapy (balneotherapy, exercise and massage) either.
