About this study

Official title: Outpatient Total Joint Arthroplasty in Dedicated Daycare Facility vs Standard Patient Ward - a Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this single center randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate whether outpatient arthroplasty surgery in a dedicated daycare facility will improve discharge on day of surgery, as opposed to surgery followed by subsequent stay in the ward and also same day discharge, without compromizing safety and outcome.

Read the detailed description

Introduction of fast-track total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has led to a decrease in length of stay without compromising patient safety and clinical outcome . In recent years outpatient THA and TKA has gained popularity, especially as major focus is placed on reducing cost and increasing efficiency in all medical treatments . Studies have shown outpatient arthroplasty to be feasible both for THA and TKA patients , with up to 70% of unselected patients being potentially eligible for outpatient surgery. Various results are published on success rate of discharged patients on the day of surgery, ranging from 25% to 99% , depending on patient selection and logistic setup. While the majority of published studies utilizes a modern fast-track setup with early mobilization and multimodal pain treatment, the optimal logistic setup remains unknown.

The purpose of this single center randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate whether outpatient arthroplasty surgery in a dedicated daycare facility will improve discharge on day of surgery, as opposed to surgery followed by subsequent stay in the ward and also same day discharge, without compromizing safety and outcome.

Mobilization at a dedicated daycare facility

What participants receive

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

  • Mobilization at a dedicated daycare facilityOther

    All THA's are performed using a standard posterolateral approach with simple posterior soft-tissue repair. No infiltration anesthesia (LIA) is used in THA's. All TKA's are performed with a standard medial parapatellar approach without the use of tourniquet. Physiotherapy is started as soon as possible after surgery in the dedicated day care facility. Time till first mobilization is recorded as is total time mobilized supervised by a physiotherapist before discharge.

    Patients are discharged if fulfilling the discharge criteria before 8 pm. Number of hours spent in hospital in total is recorded.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mobilization at a dedicated daycare facility in people with Arthropathy of Knee and Arthropathy of Hip, run by Hvidovre University Hospital 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 7 inclusion and 1 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 30 Jul 2020. 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.

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?

Patients discharged on day of surgery (time frame: 12 hours). 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 30 Jul 2020.
