Pain and Sensation After Regional Anesthesia - Pilot Study
AnesthesiaConduction2 moreThis study aims to determine spinal resolution and pain levels after the placement of a lumbar plexus block (LPB) and spinal for total hip replacement procedure. This is a pilot study that looks to collect information in order to design a larger, more significant study comparing Quadratus Lumborum blocks (QLB) and Lumbar Plexus blocks.

Hip OsteoarthritisKnee OsteoarthritisThis study will compare outcomes of two different delivery methods (Face-to-face and digitally) of first-line treatment for hip and knee osteoarthritis.
Study on Costs and Effects of Waiting Time in Total Hip and Knee Replacements
OsteoarthritisHip2 moreThe aim of this study is to compare the cost-effectiveness of major joint replacement in patients with short and non-fixed (control group) waiting time (WT). After being placed on the waiting list, patients will be randomized into two groups through regular contact with the practice staff: (1) Patients with non-fixed waiting time (patient undergoes hospital's normal procedure from the date (s)he is added to the waiting list to the date of operation), and (2) patients with short waiting time (operated in maximum three months). The main question is: is it possible to improve the cost-effectiveness of major joint replacement by shortening waiting time?
Addressing Patients' Expectations of Total Hip Arthroplasty in a Randomized Trial
Hip OsteoarthritisArthroplasty2 moreThe goals of this study are to develop and test an educational intervention to address patients' expectations of long-term outcomes of total hip arthroplasty.
Avenir Müller Hip Stem Post Market Surveillance Study
OsteoarthritisHip6 moreThis study is a Post Market Clinical Follow up study to fulfil the post market surveillance obligations according to Medical Device Directive and European Medical Device Vigilance System (MEDDEV) 2.12-2. The data collected from this study will serve the purpose of confirming safety and performance of the Avenir Müller Hip Stem.

A Prospective, Randomized Trial Comparing Same Day Discharge and Overnight Hospital Stay Among Total...
Osteoarthritis of the HipThe purpose of this study is to identify differences in satisfaction, pain and length of stay between patients undergoing hip replacement who are discharged from the hospital on the day of surgery compared to patients who stay one night in the hospital.
Etude 3000 ARTHROSES Symptomatic Knee and Hip Osteoarthritis Prevalence Survey
OsteoarthritisNationwide descriptive epidemiology survey aiming to determine lower limb OA prevalence, based on a validated method previously used to assess inflammatory rheumatism (rheumatoid arthritis and spondylarthropathy) prevalence in France.
Safety and Efficacy of the SL PLUS and the SL PLUS MIA Hip Stem
CoxarthrosisRandomized controlled trial using two types of hip stems, SL PLUS MIA (control group) and SL PLUS (study group). We compare primary and secondary stability of both hip stems for radiographic outcome using EBRA (Ein-Bild-Roentgen-Analyse) after a two year follow-up period. Further, we compare all differences in clinical outcome using Harris Hip Score, Oxford hip score and radiographic findings.
Comparison of Knotless Barbed Suture and Standard Suture in Knee Replacement Patients
Knee OsteoarthritisHip OsteoarthritisBarbed suture use has been gaining increased acceptance and has been reported to offer potential advantages in wound closure of hip and knee replacement surgeries. The goal of this study is to compare joint replacement patient outcomes who receive a knotless barbed suture versus a traditional suture (randomized into two arms). The traditional suture used at our joint replacement program is defined as: interrupted sutures to close the retinaculum followed by running monocryl sutures for skin closure. Both knotless barbed suture and the traditional sutures have similar suture size. Patient outcomes examined will be patient range of motion (recorded daily) and complications with wound healing (evaluated periodically in-person at post-operative visits). Secondary outcomes examined will include wound drainage on dressings by surface area and weight, as well as the wound cosmesis and perceived presence of subcutaneous surgical knots.
