Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis, Hip"

This study is a global, multi-center, prospective, non-controlled, non-randomized, post-market clinical follow-up study. The main objectives of this study are to confirm the long-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the G7 Dual Mobility Acetabular System when used with the Vivacit-E or Longevity polyethylene hip bearing and instrumentation in primary total and revision (total) hip arthroplasty

Compared to the knee and shoulder, the hip joint leaves relatively little space to maneuver arthroscopic instruments and camera. To expand the potential space in the hip joint, traction is commonly applied to the operative leg through a perineal post. This is an effective technique to improve the working space for arthroscopy, however it has been associated with complications, including perineal numbness. Traction pads, used alone or with a perineal post, can reduce pressure on the perineal area, thus reducing numbness. The investigators hypothesize that positioning hip arthroscopy patients using a traction pad on a standard traction table with a perineal post will reduce the incidence and duration of postoperative perineal numbness.

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.

Hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a burden of disability in adults, with many seeking total joint arthroplasty (TJA) to reduce their symptoms. Almost 50% of people screened for TJA are referred for further rehabilitation rather than TJA. However, access to community-based rehabilitation is limited for those living in rural settings. Recent advances in tele-rehabilitation using smart phone technology, widely available in rural areas, provides a means to access rehabilitation from home. ReDI@Home will examine the impact of home-based e-Rehabilitation, delivered via smart phone, for rural residents living with moderate to advanced OA. This randomized feasibility trial will compare 2 e-Rehabilitation programs (eRP) of varying intensity (eRP-LOw Intensity [eRP-LO] and eRP-HIgh Intensity [eRP- HI]). The investigators think that the eRP are feasible and that both eRP will improve OA self-management. However, eRP-HI will improve patient outcomes more than eRP-LO.

The main goal of this study is assess the effectiveness of a PtDA for patients with hip osteoarthritis

The aim of this project is to compare PT-led triage in secondary care setting for patients with hip or/and knee osteoarthritis (OA) with standard care (i.e. assessment of orthopedic surgeon). Comparison between cost-effectiveness, selection accuracy, patients perceived quality of care, quality of life and physical function will be made. A further aim is to determine if a digital triage tool can accurately predict when a primary knee or hip referral is deemed for nonsurgical versus surgical intervention by the surgeon following the first consultation.

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee constitutes a major public health problem. Treatment options for knee OA range from lifestyle changes to pharmacological management to total knee replacement surgery. As a "preference-sensitive" condition, management of OA of the knee is ideally suited for shared decision making (SDM), taking into consideration benefits, risks, and patients' health status, values, and goals. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) reflect health status from the patient's perspective. For knee OA, relevant PROs include pain and other symptoms, functional status and limitations, and overall health. Prior research indicates that patients with higher baseline physical function and/or poor baseline mental health do not benefit as much from total knee replacement. Still, due to logistical challenges, costs, and disruptions in workflow, PROs have not yet achieved their full potential in clinical care. Musculoskeletal providers at Dell Medical School and UT Health Austin currently collect general and condition-specific PROs from every patient seen in their Musculoskeletal Institute. PROs are collected via an electronic interface and results are pulled into the Athena electronic health record (EHR). Given the promise of combining PRO data with clinical and demographic data, musculoskeletal providers at UT Health Austin have begun utilizing an innovative electronic PRO-based predictive analytic tool at the point of care to guide SDM in patients with knee OA. This project plans to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and impact of the PRO-guided predictive analytic SDM tool and process in a randomized controlled trial in Austin. Outcomes will include decision quality, as reported by patients; treatment decision (surgical vs. non-surgical); and decisional conflict and regret. Our project contributes to AHRQ's strategy to use health IT to improve quality and outcomes by evaluating a tool and process for the use of PRO data at the point of care. The model being tested puts patients at the center of their care by enabling them to participate in informed decision making by using their personal health data, preferences, and prognostic models. Knowledge gained will be critical to scaling and spreading use of this PRO-guided SDM tool among patients with knee OA nationally.

Total hip replacement is one of the most common surgical procedure in France. In 2010, an estimated 147 513 total hip procedures were performed. This number is constantly increasing. Although it is common, it can lead to many complications. The intra-prosthetic luxation is the second one after aseptic loosening. The luxation risk is multifactorial and depends on the relative orientation of femoral et acetabular components. This orientation is influenced by statics and dynamics parameters. So far, the literature shows that only static parameters are considered by surgeons. Thus, in reference to Lewinneck publication, which states that the luxation risk is lower if the cup is oriented with 15° +/- 10° of anteversion and 40°+/- 10° of inclination with respect to the anterior pelvic plan (APP). Defined by the two anterosuperior iliacs spines and pubic symphysis. However, this approach is only static and do not take into account the variations of pelvic plan orientation during everyday life. To consider these variations of pelvic inclination, it is possible to measure the angle between APP and the horizontal (in lying position) or the vertical (in standing position) plan. Several devices allow the measure of pelvic inclination but they all have important limits (EOS radiography, scanner or navigation). A new device has been developed in Brest to measure this inclination in several positions of the daily life.This software has already been tested in healthy volunteers and results demonstrate an excellent accuracy and reproducibility. The goal of this study is to described the dynamic of the pelvic bone thanks to this ultrasound based device, and to assess the amount of variation induced by hip replacement procedures.

This randomized, single surgeon, placebo controlled, double blind study will be conducted in order to investigate whether or not peri-operative high doses of intravenous glucocorticoids improve short-term functional outcome after direct anterior total hip arthroplasty. So far, it has been proven that high dose glucocorticoids reduce immediate post-operative pain and nausea, but no data exists on functional outcome during the first 6 weeks. Our hypothesis is that patients in the intervention group will follow a so-called "get ahead, stay ahead" principle and that glucocorticoids can be considered an important tool (adjuvant treatment) in the enhanced recovery pathway after THA with significant socio-economic implications.

The study design is a multi-center, prospective, non-controlled, consecutive cohort postmarket clinical follow-up study to obtain survival and outcome data on the Allofit IT Shell in combination with Longevity Liners in primary total hip arthroplasty.
