Filter by:NEFARTHRO is a multicentric randomized controlled trial comparing the effects of discontinuous infusions of nefopam (bolus) versus continuous infusion of intravenous nefopam (via an infusion pump) versus placebo on the opioid-request during the first 24 hours following a Total Hip arthroplasty, as part of multimodal analgesia including at least paracetamol and a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID). The primary endpoint is cumulative morphine consumption for the first postoperative 24 hours, expressed in mg of iv equivalent morphine, including titration in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU). Patients will be followed during 6 months.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to measure the periprosthetic bone mineral density changes around a 3D-printed highly-porous titanium acetabular cup used in primary total hip arthroplasty compared to a standard hydroxyapatite/titanium plasma-sprayed acetabular cup up to 2-year follow-up.
This is a single-site, prospective, clinical study of subjects that are scheduled to undergo either total hip or total knee arthroplasties. It is anticipated that surgical wounds treated with SurgX will exhibit reduced surgical site complication rates and improved post-operative treatment outcomes by potentially decreasing site bioburden of both free-floating and biofilm-entrenched organisms.
This study will assess the clinical and health economic value of an intraoperative navigation system for total hip arthroplasty in one Ontario hospital. The results of this study will be used to generate evidence-based recommendations on the use and funding of the device in public hospitals and inform the development of a provincial healthcare innovation pathway.
Wear is the main reason for revision operations after joint arthroplasty. While the survival of modern implants is often longer than the expected life span in old patients, young patients (<60 years) have to expect at least one wear induced revision operation. The reason is the throughout all registries consistantly significantly reduced implant survival rates in young patients. In the swedish arthrplasty registry the 15 year survival for patients older than 75 years is 95 % and for those younger than 50 years is 75 %. This corresponds to a 5fold increased revision rate (5 % vs. 25 %) 15 years after implantation. This significant difference cannot be explained by the higher activity of younger patients alone. Patient specific factors, that modulate the biological reaction on wear particles, are therefore highly probable. These could explain the significant age dependency of implant survival. The main hypothesis of this study is therefore, that the biological reaction on wear particles depends on the patients age.
This prospective, randomized study will study the 2 year survivorship and short term outcomes of a currently-used femoral stem: the Bone Preservation Tri-Lock femoral stem using two surgical approaches. The surgical approaches being studied are direct anterior and anterolateral. Implant survivorship, radiographic positioning, and functional outcomes will be compared. Subjects will be randomized to surgical approach and followed for a period of two years.
