About this study

To assess clinical outcomes and surgery related resource use in the year post surgery for patients undergoing hip replacement using the Mako Robo

Read the detailed description

This is an observational cohort study. It evaluates the recovery of 200 patients who are having routine robotic hip replacement surgery at a Nuffield Hospital in Bournemouth. Any complications from the surgery, or readmissions to hospital, will be reported. Investigators will measure how accurately the surgeon, assisted by the robotic-arm, positions the hip implant during the surgery using x-rays taken as part of routine care. The study also monitors the progress of rehabilitation by assessing pain and functional ability in the year following surgery, and will investigate whether there is an association between this recovery and a measurement of an area of muscle in the pelvic region, taken from a routine CT scan.

Patients will be asked to come to the Orthopaedic Research Institute at Bournemouth University to be assessed before they have surgery, and again at 3 weeks, 6-8 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months following surgery. At these visits they will be asked about their pain, how well they can do daily activities, and their quality of life. They will be assessed on their ability to sit-to-stand five times, walk for 40m, and climb some stairs. At each visit, except the three weeks visit, they will also have their gait tested on a specialised clinical treadmill, and the muscle strength in their legs measured. They will also be measured for oedema at baseline, 3 weeks and 6-8 weeks using a Fit3D ProScanner. These visits are in addition to the routine clinical follow-up visits at Nuffield Hospital. Participants will also be invited to wear a wrist activity monitor for at least three consecutive days prior to surgery and for the 6 weeks following discharge so that their activity can be recorded.

Surgery-related resource use of the procedure will also be reported, such as length of hospital stay, time in theatre, unplanned hospital visits, non-routine medication, outpatient appointments and physiotherapy appointments.

  5. Gait analysis

    Participants' gait will be analysed using the GRAIL MotekForce at baseline, 6-8 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year following surgery.

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  6. Muscle Testing

    Participants' muscle strength will be analysed using the Primus BTE at baseline, 6-8 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year following surgery.

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  7. Measurement of pre-operative psoas muscle mass

    This measurement will be taken from the pre-surgery CT scan

    Measured: Pre-Operative

  8. Patient Reported Outcome Measures - EQ-5D Quality of Life Score

    EQ-5D Quality of Life Score will be assessed at pre-surgery and at 6 months.

    Measured: 6 Months post surgery

  9. Patient Reported Outcome Measures - The Pain Catastrophizing Score (PCS)

    The Pain Catastrophizing Score (PCS) will be assessed prior to surgery.

    Measured: Pre-Operative

  10. Patient Reported Outcome Measures - The Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)

    The Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) will be assessed at pre-surgery, 3 weeks, 6-8 weeks, 3 month, 6 months and 1 year following surgery

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  11. Surgery related resource use - length of stay in hospital

    Data will be reported on surgery-related use of resources for length of stay in hospital

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  12. Surgery related resource use - time in theatre

    Data will be reported on surgery-related use of resources for time in theatre

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  13. Surgery related resource use - unplanned hospital visits

    Data will be reported on surgery-related use of resources for unplanned hospital visits

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  14. Surgery related resource use - non-routine medication

    Data will be reported on surgery-related use of resources for non-routine medication

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  15. Surgery related resource use - number of outpatient appointments

    Data will be reported on surgery-related use of resources for number of outpatient appointments

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  16. Surgery related resource use - number of physiotherapy appointments

    Data will be reported on surgery-related use of resources for number of physiotherapy appointments.

    Measured: 1 Year post surgery

  17. Monitoring of physical activity

    Participants will be invited to wear an activity monitor on their wrist for at least three consecutive days prior to surgery, and for the 6-8 weeks following discharge

    Measured: 6-8 weeks following surgery

  18. Measurement of oedema

    Participants will be assessed for oedema using a Fit3D ProScanner at baseline, 3 weeks and 6-8 weeks following surgery.

    Measured: 6-8 weeks following surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis, Hip, run by Bournemouth University at 2 sites in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 18 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 13 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United Kingdom. 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.

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?

The measurement of surgical complications post surgery (time frame: 1 Year post surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Aug 2024.
