Filter by:Age-related hip and knee osteoarthritis is the leading cause of pain and locomotor problems worldwide. There is no definitive solution in the treatment of hip and knee osteoarthritis. In the guidelines of the American Rheumatology Association, pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment methods are recommended for the treatment of hip and knee osteoarthritis. The effectiveness of different exercise programs for the periarticular muscles in hip and knee osteoarthritis has been proven, but there is no consensus on the superiority of exercise protocols over each other. With the increase in home isolation of individuals due to the COVID-19 pandemic, telerehabilitation applications have gained popularity.In the literature, there is a need for studies investigating the effectiveness of core stabilization exercises in patients with hip and knee osteoarthritis. Therefore, our study will help develop alternative exercises for individuals with hip and knee osteoarthritis. In the literature, there is no study investigating the effectiveness of core stabilization exercises applied with the telerehabilitation method in patients with knee osteoarthritis and comparing them with conventional exercise. According to the data to be obtained as a result of the study, the use of core stabilization exercises in the treatment of hip and knee osteoarthritis will contribute to the literature as an alternative exercise method. The application of these exercises with the telerehabilitation method in the treatment of hip and knee osteoarthritis will highlight new studies in the literature as a unique methodology. Thus, it will contribute to the development of cost-effective rehabilitation methods in the treatment of hip and knee osteoarthritis. The hypotheses of this study are as follows: H0:There is no difference between the effects of combined exercise with telerehabilitation (conventional exercise + core stabilization exercise) and the effects of conventional exercise in the treatment of hip and/or knee osteoarthritis. H1:Combined exercise with telerehabilitation application (conventional exercise + core stabilization exercise) is more effective than conventional exercise in the treatment of hip and/or knee osteoarthritis. Main Purpose: To compare the effects of conventional exercise and core stabilization exercises by telerehabilitation on pain, postural control, functional level, and fear of falling in patients with hip and/or knee osteoarthritis. Secondary Purposes: - To evaluate the effects of core stabilization exercises on pain, postural control, functional level, fear of falling in female patients with hip and/or knee osteoarthritis. - To evaluate the effectiveness of telerehabilitation exercise in female patients with hip and/or knee osteoarthritis. - To determine the possible limitations that may be encountered in the application of exercise by telerehabilitation in female patients with hip and/or knee osteoarthritis and to provide appropriate conditions for the patients.
This prospective longitudinal cohort study aims (1) to identify clinical phenotypes in persons with hip osteoarthritis and after total hip arthroplasty, and (2) to identify prognostic factors for outcomes after total hip arthroplasty.
Bone marrow samples will be collected from patients undergoing hip arthroplasty surgery. Blood and bone marrow samples will be used for metabolic profiling and analysis of relevant CHIP mutations. Combined single-cell transcriptomics and mutation-specific single-cell genotyping (biotin-PCR using mutation-targeted primers followed by sequencing) will subsequently be performed. The gene expression profile of wildtype and mutant hematopoietic stem cells will be compared, performing both broad gene set enrichment analysis and targeted analysis of metabolic pathways.
The purpose of this post-market clinical follow up study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the SYMBOL range of medical devices. The study will evaluate the outcome of Total Hip Arthroplasty using medical devices from SYMBOL range over a period of 10 years.
There is a growing interest in the effects of mental health and wellness on orthopedic intervention outcomes, not only in terms of how advances in surgical procedures influence patient outcomes, but also with regard for physician physical and mental well-being. Although total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with favorable clinical outcomes as assessed by surgeon evaluation, radiographic analysis and implant longevity, unfavorable long-term pain and quality of life outcomes are consistently observed in upwards of 20% of patients receiving THAs. As such, the need to understand and address the determinants of positive and negative outcomes is of critical importance if the field hopes to continue to advance strategies to improve long-term outcomes for joint replacement. The overarching goal of this application is to assess the benefits of the KINCISE for patient recovery outcomes related to physical and mental well-being.
Residual limping after total hip arthroplasty is empirically associated with the use of lateral approach but has been reported in litterature even with the use of posterior approach. The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the risk of residual limping one year after total hip arthropasty between lateral and posterior approach.
Rationale: THA is a widely applied procedure for osteoarthritis of the hip. After THA, one can expect an increase in physical activity due to the reduction of pain and increased range of motion of the hip joint, especially in young patients who in general have more active lifestyles. However, these young patients and their doctors don't know which increase in physical activity can be expected. Objective: To measure the difference in physical activity before and after THA. Study design: Longitudinal prospective single center observational study. Study population: 87 patients who have primary THA under the age of 50 years. Excluding patients with an underlying oncologic disease which results in THA. Intervention: N.a. Main study parameters/endpoints: The first primary endpoint is physical activity in minutes per day. The other primary endpoint is MVPA in minutes per day. Secondary endpoints are difference of TUG outcomes in seconds and the difference of 6MWT outcomes in meters. For the patients experience, the COPM total scores and NRS pain scores will be measured. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: This study requires three outpatient clinic visits. These visits will coincide with regular outpatient clinic visits, so patients will not have to come in extra for this study. During the preoperative and 1 year postoperative visit, the patients will complete the COPM. The patient will wear a PA monitor for 7 days after each visit. Patients might experience confronting feelings while being exposed to their PA activity profile after the study or experience mild discomfort while wearing the PA monitor since it will be worn 24 hours per day for 7 days. Also, filling in the questionnaires will take some time (5-10 minutes per questionnaire series). There are no significant physical risks associated to this study.
Total hip replacement is the most successful treatment modern healthcare can offer patients to regain quality of life. Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the most common and devastating complication after total hip replacement (THR). Between 0.5 to 2% of primary THR (first time hip replacement), and 8-10% of revision THR (replacement of a hip prosthesis) will become infected.1 The introduction of local antibiotics blended into bone cement has led to a reduction in postoperative infection in primary THR by half.2 Unfortunately, cement can't always be used in relevant quantities. The number of primary and revision surgeries of the hip is projected to increase dramatically. Therefore, the need for a feasible infection prophylaxis that is applicable for complex primary and revision THR in addition to antibiotics loaded cement is urgent. Impacted morselized bone allograft is often used in (revision) THR to fill bone defects. Morselized allograft has been used as a carrier for local antibiotic treatment in multiple pilot studies and appears to be an attractive and effective treatment option, both for already infected joints and as a prophylactic measure in high-risk patients (e.g. THR revision surgeries). Nonetheless, a pivotal trial to support its use in THR is lacking. The aim of this pragmatic randomized controlled double blinded drug trial is to investigate whether antibiotic impregnated bone graft (AIBG) decreases the risk of infection after hip arthroplasty compared to controls treated with placebo impregnated bone graft. Patients scheduled for elective THR will be randomized to receive AIBG or a placebo impregnated bone graft. The primary outcome variable will be the number of re-operations due to infections and PJI diagnoses 2 years postoperative.
This is a randomized clinical trial (RCT) to assess the efficacy of bariatric surgery vs medical weight loss vs. the "usual standard of care" to optimize a morbidly obese patient with end-stage osteoarthritis of the hip or knee joint for total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The study population will include patients with hip or knee joint osteoarthritis and BMI (Body Mass Index) > 40 kg/m2 who are evaluated in the joint arthroplasty clinic at Boston Medical Center. The primary objective of the study is to determine if bariatric surgery or medical weight loss is more effective than the usual standard of care in optimizing a morbidly obese patient with osteoarthritis of the hip or knee joint for TJA. This will be determined by comparing the number of patients within each group who are able to lose weight through either bariatric surgery, medical weight loss, or the usual standard of care to achieve a BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 to eventually undergo TJA. The secondary objectives of this study are to compare total operative time, postoperative complication rates, readmission rates, percentage of total body weight lost, revision rate, and reoperation rate. The ability of patients within each study arm to maintain a BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 for up to 2 years after undergoing TJA will also be assessed, as well as their level of satisfaction before and after being in the study.
This trial is a randomized feasibility trial to determine the feasibility of comparing two different shoe inserts and on pain, quality of life and physical activity associated with hip osteoarthritis.
