About this study

Official title: The Effect of Implant Design on Postoperative Mechanical Muscle Function Recovery and Gait in Hip Replacement Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trail

This study is conducted at Odense University Hospital(OUH) in collaboration with Institute of Clinical Biomechanics and Sport Science, University of Southern Denmark and Clinical Institute, University of Southern Denmark

Aim: To evaluate the effect of implant design on postoperative total leg muscle function recovery and gait in hip replacement patients.

Design: A prospective randomized controlled clinical trial where patients are randomized into (A) total hip arthroplasty surgery (THA) or (B) resurfacing total hip replacement surgery (RTHA). Pre-surgery assessment and follow-up will be conducted at 8, 26 and 52 wks post-surgery.

Read the detailed description

The project consist of three substudies:

  • Determination of test-retest reliability and agreement of specific mechanical muscle function variables for the patients of interest.
  • Evaluate the effect of implant design on postoperative mechanical muscle recovery
  • Evaluate the effect of implant design on postoperative gait
Conditions
Osteoarthritis
Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Articular Surface Replacement (ASR)Procedure or surgery

    Articular surface replacement, DePuy, posterolateral approach used

  • Standard Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA)Procedure or surgery

    Device: Biomet 28mm

Resurfacing Total Hip ArthroplastyExperimentalA hip replacement that leaves most of the underlying bone intact and mimics the natural biomechanical features of the hip joint. Articular surface replacement ASR, DePuy posterolateral approach used (RTHA)

Standard Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA)Active comparatorA standard 28 mm head uncemented THA

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Maximal muscle strength (Peak torque, Nm)

    Maximal muscle strength (peak torque, Nm) during maximal voluntary unilateral knee extension-flexion (seated), hip extension-flexion, and hip adduction-abduction (standing), respectively. Both the affected (AF) and non-affected (NA) leg

    Measured: 52 wks post-surgery (primary endpoint)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Rapid force capacity (Rate of torque development, Nm/sec)

    Determined as the mean tangential slope of the torque-time curve in time intervals 0-100ms (RTD100ms), 0-200ms (RTD200ms) and 0-peak (RTD peak) relative to onset of contraction (t = 0ms)

    Measured: 52 wks post-surgery (primary endpoint)

  2. Gait parameters

    Selfselected, matched and maximal speed, limb index, Gait deviation index, Movement profile analysis togeter with tempo- spatial parameters

    Measured: 26 wks post-surgery (primary endpoint)

  3. Postural Control

    Sway analysis (postural control) during two-leg standing, tandem, one-leg standing and during transistion from sit-to-stand.

    Measured: 52 wks post-surgery (primary endpoint)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) and Standard Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) in people with Osteoarthritis, run by University of Southern Denmark at 1 site in Denmark.

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 1 inclusion and 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 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 Denmark. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximal muscle strength (Peak torque, Nm) (time frame: 52 wks post-surgery (primary endpoint)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01229293, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 25 Sep 2012.
