The primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Corin Optimised Positioning System (Corin, U.K.) reduces the rate of hip dislocation at one-year post-operatively compared with standard templating in patients undergoing total hip replacement. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine whether the Corin Optimised Positioning System (Corin, U.K.) improves functional outcomes, reduces length of hospital stay, and reduces leg length discrepancy compared with standard templating in patients undergoing total hip replacement.
To compare the effects of preoperative intravenous Dexamethasone between 10 mg and 40 mg with placebo on Postoperative Pain After Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty
This randomized controlled trial will compare patients receiving a standard uncemented femoral stem with patients receiving an identically designed short uncemented femoral stem.
Subjects submitted to unilateral THA will be randomized into two rehabilitation groups. One group will receive a booklet with guidelines for postoperative care, while the other group will participate in face-to-face sessions with exercises with emphasis on muscle strengthening.
Prolonged wound drainage after total hip or knee arthroplasty is a very undesirable complication, both from medical as patients view. Wound drainage prolongs hospital admission and is associated with an increased risk of infection (1) post-operative wound drainage of more than 48 hours is associated with an increased infection risk of 42 percent a day in hip arthroplasty and 27 percent a day in knee arthroplasty. (2) Patient organizations report that wound drainage is considered as one of the most undesirable complications. In our hospital, patients undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty are treated according to a "fast track" protocol, in most cases resulting in a hospital admission of only two days. This increases the chance that patient's release from hospital will be delayed due to wound drainage. The fact that our department recently started to perform hip and knee arthroplasty in a daycare setting increases this chance substantially. In hemiarthroplasty of the knee, tissue adhesive was used in addition to conventional wound closure techniques with monocryl sutures. Resorbable monocryl sutures were used so that the usual visit to our outpatient department to remove the sutures was no longer necessary. However, we experienced an increase in wound drainage and complications using only monocryl. The addition of a tissue adhesive decreased the post-operative wound complication drastically. This in mind, we started to use tissue adhesive in regular hip and knee arthroplasty as well. With tissue adhesive in addition to conventional staples, we noticed good results. These results however, were subjective and not officially recorded. In a previous study, good results are reported in decreasing wound drainage with the use of a tissue adhesive in addition to staples. Clinical relevance was not reported and the study design lacked a cost-effectiveness analysis (3) The increase in cost for the use of the tissue adhesive involved was noted by our board of directors. Because lack of a clear medical of financial benefit, we were asked to minimize the use of tissue adhesive, resulting in usage of tissue adhesive solely in a day care setting, which comprises only 5 to 10 percent of our treated population. Previous study reported a decrease in post-operative wound drainage when tissue adhesive was used in addition to staples in knee arthroplasty. However, no financial benefit is known, therefore this treatment has not been accepted into daily practice. In our department, prolonged hospital admission due to wound drainage is not found to be uncommon. Our hypothesis is that the addition of tissue adhesive in wound closure after hip and knee arthroplasty will significantly decrease post-operative wound drainage, leading to a reduced number of admission days. In addition, we expect less patients to return to our outpatient clinic for non-regular visits due to wound complications. Expensive bandages are used in our standard treatment protocol. Less wound drainage would mean less bandages. All these things combined will lead to a reduction in overall health care costs
This study will examine the safety and efficacy of autologous adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells for treatment of hip, knee and thumb osteoarthritis (OA); monitoring adverse events and measuring pain, function and stiffness in the joints of osteoarthritic subjects.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a hip arthroplasty for chronic pain, caused by a unilateral primary Coxartrhrose, regarding the cognitive performance. It is based on the hypothesis that the combination of chronic pain along with relative immobilization causes impairment of cognitive performance. The total hip replacement reduces pain, increases the mobility level and finally improves the cognitive performance.
Osteoarthritis (OA), leading to hip replacement, is a leading contributor to global mobility impairment. Given the boom in the older demographic it is not surprising that there is an 11% increased demand for replacement every 5 years in Canada. Health promotion interventions, such as prehabilitation, defined as pre-surgical education, are vital to optimizing surgical outcomes, reducing hospitalization costs, accelerating rehabilitation, and reducing patient discomfort and pre-operative anxiety. HIPPER is a 2-year randomized controlled trial (RCT) that will assess feasibility indicators and clinical outcomes of online prehab education modules compared to online educational webinars. The feasibility indicators (process, resource, management, and treatment issues) and clinical outcomes (physical function, anxiety, depression, pain, daily activities, self-efficacy, and health related quality of life) will be assessed among Vancouver-dwelling older adults aged > 50 years, with advanced hip osteoarthritis. The findings will lead to the refinement of the design protocol in order to evaluate a contemporary, standardized, and geographically accessible prehab education program in a large multi-site RCT.
This is a prospective open-label clinical study of 50 patients to determine safety and treatment potential of autologous cell therapy for pain and inflammation associated with Osteoarthritis of the hip. Follow-up will consist of a larger sample including 4,000 patients.
