Determining the best approach for a total hip arthroplasty (THA) implies that the procedure is kind on soft tissues, with the lowest complication rates, and easily reproducible. Although there have been several attempts to resolve this issue in the last decade, a definitive answer has not been found. Therefore, the investigators performed a prospective study to compare direct anterior versus posterior approach based on (1) hospital stay, (2) functional outcome, (3) pain, (4) implant position (5) complications and (6) surgical time.
The present study is designed to investigate whether the behavioral and cognitive functioning might predict the outcome of the rehabilitation of gait related abilities in orthopedic patients submitted to elective surgery (total hip arthroplasty). The evaluation of gait related abilities will be performed with specific physiatric tests, while cognitive functioning will be studied by means of an extended neuropsychological battery.
160 patients who received a total hip arthroplasty (THA) were included and randomized to receive specific rehabilitation sport (RS) or not (control) in addition to a conventional rehabilitation program. Upon completion of the rehabilitation phase 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after surgery sports medical measurements have been performed. Strength abilities of the hip muscles were tested with isokinetic dynamometry, postural control with a force measuring platform and endurance via lactate measurements.
We want to present the outcome of complex multifragmented acetabular fractures in the elderly treated with acetabular cerclage and total hip arthroplasty.
This study used 3D reconstructions from the EOS biplanar radiographic imaging system to perform leg length measurements before and after THA (Total hip arthroplasty) on all included THA patients from 2015 to evaluate surgeon performance in restoring lower limb length after THA and the relationships between the quality of life, estimated by the HOOS score (Hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score), and the anatomy of the new hip in standing position.
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most successful orthopedic procedures to effectively relieve pain and restore function in patients with end stage osteoarthritis. In an attempt to accelerate recovery many orthopedic surgeons have opted to utilize a direct anterior approach (DAA) as opposed to the more traditional posterolateral approach (PLA). The literature supports that DAA is superior to PLA with regard to lower blood loss, less pain, shorter hospital stay, and faster rehabilitation. Traditionally the study team has performed Lumbar Plexus blocks (LPB) to provide post-operative analgesia for total hip arthroplasty. The quadratus lumborum block (QLB) is a newer regional analgesic technique that may be as effective as LPB at providing pain control following DAA hip arthroplasty. This study is designed to compare the efficacy, with regards to post-operative pain management, between LPB and QLB following a DAA total hip arthroplasty.
Peripheral nerve blocks for joint and extremity surgeries have long been proven to provide effective post-operative analgesia. Of these surgeries, total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains one of the most common orthopedic procedures in the United States with approximately 300,000 operations performed annually. At our institution, post-operative analgesia in these patients is primarily provided through parenteral and oral opioid medications. Quadratus lumborum blocks (QLB) have been described and implemented for various surgical procedures including caesarean and laparoscopic ovarian surgery. Recently, there has been increasing interest in the efficacy of quadratus lumborum blocks for THA. Currently, case reports have established a precedent regarding the efficacy of the QLB for THA in providing superior analgesia and decreasing visual analog pain scores (VAS), but randomized trials are still lacking. The goal of this study is to compare pain scores (VAS), opioid consumption, physical therapy scores, and patient and surgeon satisfaction in patients that receive QLB versus no peripheral nerve blockade in patients undergoing THA. The results of this study have the potential to change standard of care for patients undergoing THA.
The study is a multi-center, prospective, non-controlled, consecutive cohort post market surveillance study. The objective of this study is to obtain survival and outcome data on the Continuum Metal Bearing System in primary total hip arthroplasty.
This is an observational prospective study aimed to assess the lower limbs motor and functional recovery in patients who underwent to unilateral THA respect to simultaneous bilateral THA, in early postoperative phase.
