Active clinical trials for "Hip Dislocation"

Comparison of Conventional and Large Diameter Femoral Heads for the Prevention of Hip Dislocation...

Hip Dislocation

About ten percent of revision hip replacements will dislocate. Although dislocation is not a life-threatening problem, it is stressful and costly and requires hospitalization to treat. Subjects who have repeated dislocations live with the constant fear of another dislocation. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a large ball prosthesis in preventing post-surgical dislocation. A large diameter ball has greater freedom of movement before it impinges; therefore, theoretically, it should not dislocate as easily.

Radiological Riskfactors for Dislocation of Hip Hemiarthroplasty

DislocationFemoral Neck Fracture

Between January 1 2006 and December 31 2013, at our department 324 patients underwent hemiarthroplasty (HA) for displaced femoral-neck fracture with a bipolar prosthesis (Variokopf, Link®, Germany) by the use of the posteriolateral approach. Patients with pathological fractures and HA performed with direct lateral approach were excluded. A retrospective cohort study were conducted. Patients with prosthetic dislocation formed one group and patients without dislocation formed the control group. As standard, post surgery radiographs (anteroposterior and lateral) were taken. After these were performed patient started weight bearing as soon as possible. Clinical data regarding patient demographics, details of the surgical procedure and the medical comorbidities were collected by the use of patient and operative records. Radiological analysis with position evaluation was performed using the post surgery radiographs by measuring Wiberg angle, inequality of leg length and femoral offset of the prostheses and compared with non-operated hip joint using the post surgery x-ray images. Our hypothesis were that patients with single- or recurrent dislocations had shortened postoperative leg length, decreased femoral offsed and a Wiberg angle less than 25 degrees.

Congenital Hip Dislocation

The main objective is to identify the genes involved in congenital dislocation of the hip. The secondary objectives are to measure the association between mechanical risk factors and congenital dislocation of hip and study the interactions between these factors and genetic factors.

Predictors of Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head After Treatment of the Dislocated Hip

Several risk factors for the development of osteonecrosis of the femoral head following treatment of developmental dislocated hip have been reported. The need for further research with a large-enough sample size including statistical adjustment of confounders was demanded. The purpose of the present study was to find reliable predictors of osteonecrosis in patients managed for developmental dislocation of the hip and to evaluate if delayed treatment increased the risk of residual acetabular dysplasia requiring secondary surgeries.

The project runs as a Ph.d. project at the Faculty of Health Sciences- University of Copenhagen. In Denmark the investigators operate around 16.000 artificial hips and knees yearly, mainly due to osteoarthritis. The numbers has increased with 13,9% for hips and 50,7% for knees in the period 2004 to 2007. In 10% of the cases, or approximately 1.600 patients, the patient is younger than 50 years - mid-life, working, socially active and sexually active. The investigators have a tendency within in the orthopedic society to mainly focus on the technological aspects of the procedure and tend to forget that this is a key event for the patient with widespread consequences for the patient and his future life. Hip- and knee arthroplasties is without no doubt two of the most important and successfully surgical procedures ever introduced. The economical cost for osteoarthritis treatment has exploded in the developed world over the last decade, with a yearly growth on 8%. Because of the limited lifetime for an artificial hip or knee, this treatment can be unfortunate for the young patient. This has over the last years led to an increased interest for joint preserving surgery. Over the last twenty years it has been tried to delay the time for total hip arthroplasties for patients with hip dysplasia with the aid of Ganz osteotomy. Since this technique was introduced back in 1988, the research on the topic has had its main focus on optimizing the operation technique. So as with surgery with artificial hip or knee the investigators have a lack of knowledge regarding the social, work related, psychological and sexual aspects of this treatment. Purpose The consequences of an artificial hip or knee joint regarding patients' social-life, work, psychological and sexual aspects gain very little attention international. The investigators apply most of our research funds exclusively to research and development of the surgical track and procedure, new prosthesis designs or coatings. The investigators find this study highly relevant because this kind of studies has been preformed for several chronic diseases but not osteoarthritis and its treatment. With this study the investigators wish to examine the social, work related, psychological and sexual aspects of end stage osteoarthritis. This will lead the way for improved information to the patient and improve the surgeons' possibilities for chosen the correct time for surgery.

Biomechanical Reconstruction of Three Different Hip Stem Designs in Hip Dysplasia Using a 3D CT-based...

Dysplasia; Hip

A random population of 200 CT scans of pelvis and thigh in an adult population affected by hip dysplasia will be selected. The aim of this study is to evaluate the biomechanical reconstruction of the hip anatomy provided by three different hip stem designs in dysplastic cases, using a 3D CT based software for pre-operative planning.
