About this study

Official title: Kinematics and Muscle Strength in Two, Five or 10 Years Afther Total Hip Arthroplasty: Comparison With Healthy Individuales Controlled Cross Sectional Study

Introduction: Femoral and acetabular replacement is characterized as total hip arthroplasty (THA). It has been used as treatment of various pathologies of this joint. In the postoperative period, some studies have shown that strength, function, range of motion and lower limb mechanics remains altered for more than One year after THA in relation to the non-operated side. However, studies that have correlated kinematics and hip muscle strength in individuals who underwent THA for long time, do not exist in literature. Objective: to evaluate lower limb muscle strength and 2D kinematics during stair ascending and descending in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. Methods: Third individuals who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) will be recruited at two, five and 10 year postoperative periods. They were allocated in three groups: Group 1 (10n), subjects submitted to THA for two years, Group 2 (10n) subjects submitted to THA for five years, Group 3 (10n) subjects submitted to THA for 10 years and Group 4 (10n) subjects without orthopaedic afections, all will be evaluated for dynamometric isometric muscle strength and kinematic analysis of stair ascending and descending by a "blinded" physical Therapist.

What is being measured

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

  1. kinematic analysis of hip movements for flexion

    Analysis of the movements of the hip - range of motion for flexion

    Measured: evaluated at 10 years after hip arthroplasty

  2. kinematic analysis of hip movements for extension

    Analysis of the movements of the hip - range of motion for extension

    Measured: evaluated at 10 years after hip arthroplasty

  3. kinematic analysis of hip movements for internal rotation

    Analysis of the movements of the hip - range of motion for internal rotation

    Measured: evaluated at 10 years after hip arthroplasty

  4. kinematic analysis of hip movements external rotation

    Analysis of the movements of the hip - range of motion for external rotation

    Measured: evaluated at 10 years after hip arthroplasty

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hip Osteoarthritis, run by Faculdade de Ciências Médicas da Santa Casa de São Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 9 Sep 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 Brazil. 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?

kinematic analysis of hip movements for flexion (time frame: evaluated at 10 years after hip arthroplasty). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04214171, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Sep 2020.
