About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Preoperative Education and Mini-invasive Total Hip Replacement in Regard to the Attainment of Functional Independency and Reduction of Hospital Stay

We propose to evaluate a preoperative education of the patient and a new surgical technique (the mini-invasive THR) that could reduce the time to achieve functional independence.

The primary objective of the trial is to assess the time to reach functional independence after total hip replacement depending on the treatment groups: preoperative education versus no preoperative education and mini-invasive procedure versus standard procedure. The study hypothesis is that education and mini-invasive procedure will reduce the time to reach functional independence.

This is a prospective trial with a double randomization.

Read the detailed description

We propose to evaluate a preoperative education of the patient and a new surgical technique (the mini-invasive THR) that could reduce the time to achieve functional independence. Preoperative education is compared to no education and the mini-invasive surgery is compared to the standard group.

The education is based on explaining to the patient what will the postoperative rehabilitation be like.

The mini-invasive THR is based on the minimisation of soft tissue trauma. It requires a specific instrumentation to allow dissection and implantation of the prosthesis. Only few studies have evaluated such a technique. However, these studies were retrospective or non-randomised and results are contradictory. Therefore, a randomised controlled clinical trial is necessary to evaluate the possible benefits and feasibility of this technique.

The primary outcome is the time to reach functional independence. Secondary outcomes evaluate the duration of hospital stay, the quality of implantation of the prosthesis, the postoperative morbidity, the functional benefits and the quality of life.

Methods: this monocentric randomised controlled clinical trial compares the preoperative education versus no preoperative education (first randomization) and the conventional THR to the mini-invasive THR (second randomization). One hundred and forty patients will be included in each group.

Expected results: preoperative education and the mini-invasive THR are prone to decrease time to functional independence, postoperative morbidity and duration of hospital stay.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing -preoperative education and total hip replacement in people with Osteoarthritis of the Hip, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Philippe ANRACT, PU-PH (+33(0)1 58 41 30 98, philippe.anract@cch.ap-hop-paris.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to reach functional independence at hospital discharge (time frame: during de study). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Jun 2012.
