Total Hip Arthroplasty: Fast Track Protocol is the Future? (FastTrack-H)

Early functional outcomes are collecting using Lowa Level of Assistance(ILOA) during the third post-operative day. This scale is able to provide data on the autonomy reached by the patient in the first postoperative period going to investigate five main motor activities (get up from supine to seated, from sitting to standing position, walk around, take three steps, the speed of walking). The total score can vary from 0 to 56, where 56 indicates worst functional results.

The collection of hospital stay for each patient. The fast track expecting hospital stay is three days.

The collection of acute infection and early fracture

the collection of number of transfusions during hospital staying

The request for analgesic rescue in relation to fast track standard analgesic scheme

The collection of functional outcomes HHS at 6 weeks. The HHS is made of four subscales. The first is pain, which measures pain severity (44 points); function, which is made up of daily activities and gait (47 points); the absence of deformity, which is a subscale that measures hip flexion, adduction, internal rotation, leg length discrepancy and range of motion measures.(4 points), and range of motion (5 points). The higher scores representing less dysfunction and better outcomes.

The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) is widely used in the evaluation of Hip Osteoarthritis. It is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 24 items divided into 3 subscales: Pain (5 items): during walking, using stairs, in bed, sitting or lying, and standing upright Stiffness (2 items): after first waking and later in the day. Physical Function (17 items): using stairs, rising from sitting, standing, bending, walking, getting in / out of a car, shopping, putting on / taking off socks, rising from bed, lying in bed, getting in / out of bath, sitting, getting on / off toilet, heavy domestic duties, light domestic duties. The scores for each subscale are summed up, with a possible score range of 0-20 for Pain, 0-8 for Stiffness, and 0-68 for Physical Function. The higher scores representing less outcomes.
