About this study

Official title: Prospective Validation of a Hip and Knee Scoring System to Predict Complication Rate and Candidacy for Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty

This study is a prospective validation study of a new hip and knee replacement-specific questionnaire that can be used to predict postoperative complications. The purpose of this study is to confirm the validity of a new hip and knee scoring system to be used as a clinical tool to predict potential complication rates in patients undergoing total hip or knee replacement surgery. This scoring system aims to stratify patients into specific risk categories based a standardized calculated score. Patients will be evaluated on health risk factors and severity of disease on radiographic imaging prior to surgery, associated to higher complication rates following surgery. The hopeful anticipated result of this study is a prospective validation of the scoring system with both statistical and clinical significance in predicting postoperative complication rates in patients with moderate to high health risk,

This stratification system may prove meaningful by allowing these patients, especially those classified as High-Risk, to be incorporated into more appropriate healthcare bundle payment systems that account for their higher financial demands. Furthermore, the stratification may allow for preoperative counseling and a shift towards non-operative management, or surgeon-patient conversations regarding the need to modify a portion of their objective risks prior to surgical intervention. Predictive risk models such as the one presented in the current study will be essential tools as the number of total hip arthroplasty procedures performed each year continue to increase and both the numbers of procedures and associated complications impose a significant cost on the U.S. healthcare system.

What participants receive

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

  • Risk Status OptimizationBehavioural

    Assessment of risk factors putting surgical candidates of total hip and knee arthroplasty at higher risk of complication, and promoting risk factor optimization, thereby decreasing associated risk.

What is being measured

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

  1. Optimized Risk Factors

    A Scoring System Questionnaire with risk factors associated with increased risk of complications in patients undergoing total hip and knee arthroplasty will be collected

    Risk factors collected include obesity, drug allergies, presence of osteophytes, soft tissue to patella thickness, flexion contracture, diabetes, chronic opioid use, co-morbidities, prior knee surgeries, etiology of arthritis, smoking status, and reported disability. Each are measured on a scale of -5 to 10, with 10 being the best outcome. All the risk factors are added together and that comprises the total score.

    Measured: Optimization time period covers a total time period of 6 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Risk Status Optimization in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee and Osteoarthritis, Hip, run by Rush University Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 4 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Oct 2022. 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 United States. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Optimized Risk Factors (time frame: Optimization time period covers a total time period of 6 months.). 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 27 Oct 2022.
