Summary: Osteoarthrosis (OA) is a chronic, degenerative disease characterized by joint wear and tear. It is a major cause of pain, disability and decreased quality of life. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) represent an effective alternative for the treatment and pain control of patients with osteoarthritis. The fast-track program is translated as enhanced recovery or fast-trac...

Summary: Recent data showed that the rate of periprosthetic infections in patients undergoing a hip arthroplasty revision for aseptic loosening is higher than what can be ascertained with conventional methods. The study aims to assess the adequacy of next-generation sequencing of 16s ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) gene amplicons for identifying occult infections and improving the diagnostic workup. More...

Summary: Oxycodone showed similar or superior analgesic effects than fentanyl and was proposed as an alternative for fentanyl for pain control in the postoperative period. However, it was mainly directed to control visceral pain, due to the mediation of analgesic effects by the kappa receptors. However, few studies compared the oxycodone to fentanyl for postoperative pain relief in patients undergoing tota...

Summary: A hip fracture is a large burden to the patient with increased mortality, pain and increased need for daily assistance. Trochanteric fractures of the femur (FTF) represents about 35% of the hip fractures. Today FTFs are mainly treated with internal fixation using sliding hips screws (SHS) or intramedullary nail (IMN), whilst hip arthroplasty (THA/HA) is rarely used. Despite advances in the design ...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the OR3O™ Dual Mobility System. The study will evaluate the outcome of the Total Hip Arthroplasty using the OR3O™ Dual Mobility System over a ten year period. Survivorship of THA will be assessed up to ten years.

Summary: The aim is to ensure that the patients are functionally adequately and painlessly mobilized with the proximal femoral tumor resection prosthesis used, to increase the survival of patients who underwent wide resection, and to determine the complications of the treatment applied and the clinical performance of the Moment Tumor Hip Replacement Products used.

Summary: Two-year (2 year) information regarding the performance of the commercially available Actis™ Total Hip System in order to obtain and evaluate the clinical outcomes on a series of cementless primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) and hemi-hip arthroplasty procedures using clinical, radiographic and device and procedure related adverse event assessments.

Summary: The aim of the proposed study is to perform a comparative pilot, randomized controlled trial of hip arthroscopy versus definitive total hip arthroplasty (THA) for the treatment of early hip osteoarthritis (Tönnis Grade 1-2) in patients between the ages of 40-60 years.

Summary: The overall objectives and purpose of this study is to show that the Smith and Nephew Werewolf Fastseal 6.0 Bipolar Sealer is an effective tool to aide the surgical team in providing significant hemostasis during anterior total hip arthroplasty which would subsequently improve patient outcomes.

Summary: This study titled Prospective, Multicentre Study to Assess Performance of the MonoCer Acetabular Cup in Primary Total Hip Replacement is a multi-centre prospective registry-nested cohort study, using AOANJRR's web-based data collection system integrated with Registry data collection, designed to assess the ten-year clinical outcome of the MonoCer Acetabular Cup in Primary Total Hip Replacement. Th...

Summary: The main objective of the present study is the evaluation of the kinematic parameters of gait and distribution of the load, recorded thruogh a sensorized treadmill, on lower limbs in patients at 1 year from Total Hip Replacement or Total Knee Replacement. The secondary objective is to evaluate the effects of gait training with biofeedback by means of a sensorized treadmill in patients with asymmet...

Summary: THR (Total Hip Replacement) can be very painful and regional anesthesia is very effective in reducing postoperative pain. Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) and PENG (pericapsular nerve group block) are alternative approaches to the hip sensitive nerve branches that resulted to be very promising for hip surgeries. However, no studies investigated the analgesic superiority of either PENG or ESPB. In...
