Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis, Hip"

The primary aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effectiveness of 12 weeks of progressive resistance training (PRT) compared to neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX) on functional performance in patients with hip OA measured by the 30-seconds chair stand test. Secondary aims are to investigate; the determinants of improvement in physical function following PRT or NEMEX; the effectiveness of booster sessions in prolonging the effects of the initial interventions (12 months), the cost-effectiveness of booster sessions (12 months). We will test the hypothesis that PRT is superior to NEMEX in improving physical function measured with the 30s sit-to-stand test at 12 week follow-up.

Prospective clinical investigation to determine the safety of Taperloc stems with BioGuard coating and Exceed ABT Taperfit acetabular cups with BioGuard coating when used in cementless total hip arthroplasty

The aim of this study is to evaluate a new technique that optimizes the prosthesis position for patients who undergo total hip arthroplasty surgery. Today, most surgeons take a regular X-ray (2D) to plan the surgery. In this study, patients will do a computed tomography (CT) before surgery, and with the use of the new system, the investigators will be able to make a more accurate plan when it comes to prosthetic placement and leg length adjustment in 3D. The software uses artificial intelligence (AI) to generate the information required for clinical conclusions automatically, and it enables surgeons to adapt to each unique case and anticipate situations during surgery. The system also helps the surgeon during operation with a navigation tool to place the implant in the pre-operatively planned position. It guides surgeons in real-time to place the implants accurately. To see whether the plan and navigation were correct, the investigators will do a new computed tomography after surgery to look at the achieved result. In addition to planning and navigation, the same system can be used to measure the migration of the prosthesis in relation to the bone over time using AI by comparing multiple scans. The investigators aim to follow all patients for 2 years (total of 4 CT scans after surgery) with the intention to be able to foresee implant loosening.

Hip Osteoarthritis (HOA) is the most common joint disorder and a major cause of disability in the adult population. Thus, the early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of the early stages of the disease and of the pre-arthritic condition, in particular in adolescents and young adults, is crucial to reducing the incidence of end-stage HOA and the need for total hip replacement (THR). Evidence has mounted for a prominent etiologic role of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in the development of early HOA leading to the development of early cartilage and labral damage in the non-dysplastic hip. Therefore, the surgical treatment of FAI with mini-invasive arthroscopy is crucial. To improve the outcome after surgery, cortisone is routinely injected during the procedure for anti-inflammatory purposes. The aim of the study is to compare the use of cortisone (gold-standard) (C) to a new class III medical device based on hydrolysed Collagen Peptides PEP-52, Peptys (P) and to investigate potential associations among the preoperative symptoms and hip function, the outcomes after arthroscopic surgery and biomarkers in synovial fluids (SFs).

This is a multicenter, non-controlled, prospective study. 303 subjects (GTS standard and lateralized) have been recruited. Study will be conducted in centers across Europe.

The proposed study is a continuation of two prospective, multi-centre, non-controlled studies of the Pinnacle and Pinnacle Dual Mobility total hip arthroplasty systems, originally initiated by DePuy Synthes (DSJ_2018_02 and DJS_2019_02, respectively).

Chronic conditions such as knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart failure (HF), coronary heart disease (CHD), hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and depression are among the leading causes of global disability and affect hundreds of millions of people around the world. In recent years, multimorbidity, commonly defined as the co-occurrence of at least two chronic conditions, has also gained interest due to its substantial impact on the person and society. Despite the significant burden of multimorbidity, little is known about how to treat this effectively. A 2016 Cochrane systematic review found that interventions targeting populations with specific combinations of conditions and addressing specific problems such as functional difficulties may be more effective. Exercise therapy is a treatment addressing functional limitations that is a safe and effective treatment of at least 26 chronic conditions, including OA, HF, CHD, hypertension, T2DM, COPD and depression. Furthermore, self-management support is increasingly recognized as an essential component of interventions to improve outcomes in patients living with multimorbidity and to support the long-term adherence to exercise. A new systematic review found that exercise seems effective in people with multimorbidity (the conditions included in the current study), however highlighting the need for further high-quality RCTs. The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate the effects of a personalized exercise therapy and self-management support program in addition to usual care on self-reported, objectively measured and physiological outcomes in people with multimorbidity (i.e. at least two of the following conditions: OA (knee or hip), heart condition (HF or CHD), hypertension, T2DM, COPD and depression). The primary endpoint is 12 months, but 4- and 6-month follow-ups are included as well and a 12-month health economic evaluation of the program will be conducted. Prior to the RCT, a feasibility trial of 20 people with multimorbidity, all undergoing the personalized exercise therapy and self-management support program, will be conducted using the same methods as in the RCT, but primarily focusing on feasibility outcomes (recruitment, retention, adherence to treatment, burden of outcomes, improvements in outcomes, adverse events). This will start recruitment in Feb 2021 and end August 2021. The MOBILIZE project has received funding from several foundations, including the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (grant agreement No 801790).

Tears of the acetabular labrum appear to be common with the prevalence of asymptomatic tears in the general population approaching 66% and 70% based on cadaveric dissection and magnetic resonance imaging, respectively. Despite this prevalence, there is no currently accepted justification for performing labral repair in an asymptomatic patient despite the many postulated biomechanical benefits that an intact labrum imparts to the hip joint. Representing a smaller proportion of all tears, symptomatic tears of the acetabular labrum present a therapeutic challenge. Current treatment modalities range from conservative measures to open surgical intervention. Conservative measures have typically included: activity modification, the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), physical therapy (PT), core strengthening and improvement of sensory motor control. In the past two decades, technological advances in the form of surgical instrumentation and traction devices have facilitated less invasive arthroscopic techniques to diagnose and treat hip problems and as such is now the preferred treatment modality for many orthopedic surgeons treating patients with hip pathology. Determining which patients, using age and arthritic burden as predictors, can benefit from labral repair is paramount for several reasons. Showing arthroscopic repair is of little or no benefit to a specific cohort can reduce the number of unnecessary surgeries performed, increase the use of conservative therapy (if validated) and reduce the interval between diagnosis and total hip replacement.

This randomised controlled trial will compare the effects of a weight loss and exercise program to exercise only on clinical outcomes in 100 people with hip osteoarthritis (OA) and overweight or obesity. The primary aim is to find out whether a weight loss and exercise program will improve hip pain more than an exercise program alone at 6 months follow-up

To ensure early mobilization, minimize suffering, and to prevent postoperative complications postoperative pain, should be reduced as soon and as effectively as possible. A non-pharmacological post-operative intervention in terms of the application of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), could have the potential to accelerate early mobilization and reduce the use of opioids. The overall aim is to demonstrate that the addition of TENS to standard postoperative pain management of orthopedic patients can alleviate pain during mobilization and at rest
