Venous thromboembolism in patients hospitalized for hip joint replacement surgery

2020

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a potentially life-threatening disease. Major transient risk factors include trauma, surgery, and immobilization. Patients undergoing hip joint replacement (HJR) are characterized by a high risk of postoperative VTE, but data on the time trends of VTE rates in this population are sparse.In an analysis of the German nationwide inpatient sample, we included all hospitalizations for elective primary HJR in Germany from 2005 to 2016. Time trends of the surgical procedure, overall death rates, and VTE rates were analysed, and predictors of VTE identified.Overall, 1,885,839 inpatients with elective primary HJR (59.1% women, 51.4% ≥70 years) were included in the ana…

The Symmetry and Predictive Factors in Two-Stage Bilateral Hip Replacement Procedures

2021

Background: Approximately 10–25% of total hip replacement patients undergo a bilateral procedure. The purpose of this study was to compare selected parameters associated with the first and second hip arthroplasty in patients undergoing two-stage treatment due to bilateral hip osteoarthritis and establish the predictive factors for the second procedure. Methods: This study compared the data on bilateral total hip replacement surgeries conducted in the period between 2017 and 2021 (42 patients). The following parameters from the first and second procedure were compared: the prosthetic stem, head, and insert cup size

Proximale Verankerung von Hüft-Endoprothesen mit poröser Oberfläche: 6-Jahres-Ergebnisse

2008

PROBLEM The anatomically shaped pcl (ESKA) total hip replacement has a porous coating of the proximal stem and the cup to allow for bony ingrowth. The tip of the stem is polished. METHOD We report the results of 96 THR 6.2 years (5.25-6.7) after implantation. RESULTS There were no revisions during this period. One stem showed radiographic loosening at follow-up. There was stress-shielding in 9.4% in contrast to the concept of proximal fixation. Thigh-pain was found in 9.4%. One patient demonstrated disabling thigh-pain despite radiologic bony ingrowth. By drilling the femur distal to the tip of the stem a remarkable relief was achieved. CONCLUSION Despite numerous cases of stress-shielding …

Langzeitergebnisse nach Versorgung medialer Schenkelhalsfrakturen mit Keramikkopfendoprothesen

1996

Total hip replacement is often recommended for the treatment of femoral neck fractures in elderly patients. A less invasive approach with shorter operating time is the replacement of the femoral head only, leaving the acetabular cartilage in situ. Hemiarthroplastic hip replacement using a metallic head prosthesis was not successful in the past, because the majority of patients developed protrusio acetabuli after surgery. In the present study hemiarthroplastic hip replacement using an Al2O3-ceramic head was shown to be a useful method for the treatment of femoral neck fractures in elderly patients. From 1985 to 1990 277 patients were treated with hemiarthroplasty. The average age at the time…

ESRA19-0640 The effect of intravenous dexamethasone on pain relief, blood glucose and lactate levels after hip atheroplasty

2019

Background and aims Dexamethasone provides anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect, but induces hyperglycemia and may increase serum lactate. the aim was to determine the effect of dexamethasoneon analgesia, blood glucose and lactate after hip arthroplasty. Methods This prospective randomized study includes 32 patients undergoing hip replacement. It was provided SA and patients received multimodal analgesia. the experimental group received Dexamethasone 8 mg i/v before surgery and 4 mg i/v in a 6 and 12 hours after the first dose. the control group did not receive any glucocorticoids. Blood glucose and lactate were measured before surgery,at 18:00 and 6:00 on the POD1. Patients filled in a p…

Effects of balance and proprioceptive training on total hip and knee replacement rehabilitation: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

2017

Abstract Backgound Balance and proprioceptive deficits are frequently persistent after total joint replacement, limiting functionality and involving altered movement patterns and difficulties in walking and maintaining postural control among patients. Research question The goal of this systematic review was to evaluate the short- and mid-term effects of proprioceptive and balance training for patients undergoing total knee and hip replacement. Methods This is a systematic review of literature. MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, PEDro, and Scopus were the databases searched. The review included randomized clinical trials in which the experimental groups underwent a training aimed at improvin…

The PROMISE study protocol: a multicenter prospective study of process optimization with interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral care for German patient…

2021

Background and purpose — Knee and hip replacement are common and increasing procedures, and an optimized care process that could be implemented in different settings would be useful. The PROMISE trial investigates whether a new care process works equally in different German settings and how the results compare with current non-standardized care. Patients and methods — This multi-center prospective mixed-method study includes 2,000 German patients receiving arthritis-related hip or knee endoprostheses. An interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral care process was developed and implemented in 3 German hospitals with different levels of care, and corresponding rehabilitation centers were included t…

Complement split products and proinflammatory cytokines in intraoperatively salvaged unwashed blood during hip replacement: comparison between hepari…

2008

Background and Objectives  The aim of the present study was to investigate the quality of shed blood collected in a new intraoperative autotransfusion system (Sangvia®, AstraTech, Sweden) and to study whether heparin-coated surfaces in the device reduce the production of inflammatory mediators. Material and Methods  The study was randomized and prospective. Twelve total hip arthroplasty patients whose blood was collected with a device having a heparin-coated surface and 12 patients whose blood was collected with a device having a non-heparin-coated surface were included. Venous blood was drawn from the patients preoperatively. Intraoperatively 200 ml salvaged blood was collected and samples…

Zusammenhang zwischen postoperativer Liegedauer der Redon-Drainage und Wundheilung

1997

Es wurde bei 150 Patienten mit totalendoprothetischem Huftgelenkersatz der Einflus der postoperativen Liegedauer von Redon-Drainagen auf die Wundheilung untersucht. Eine genaue Analyse der Liegedauer der Drainagen sowie deren bakterielle Keimbesiedelung sollte unter Berucksichtigung des Wundheilungsverlaufs Aufschlus uber etwaige Zusammenhange verschaffen. Auserdem sollte uberpruft werden, inwieweit die Drainagenbakteriologie eine geeignete Methode ist, eine Aussage uber die Wundsituation zu treffen. 150 Patienten wurden in drei Kollektive eingeteilt. Zwei davon (je 50 Patienten) wurden im selben Zeitraum operiert, wobei die Patienten der einen Gruppe wegen einer Wundheilungsstorung bzw. ei…
