Trial summary

The primary goal of Total Hip Replacement (THR) surgery in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis is to reduce pain and restore hip function in order to increase patient mobility and quality of life. Two different cement fixation methods are used in order to insert THR implants. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pre and Postoperative Gait Analysis of Randomized Patients to 2 Different Cement Fixation Methods

The primary goal of Total Hip Replacement (THR) surgery in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis is to reduce pain and restore hip function in order to increase patient mobility and quality of life. Two different cement fixation methods are used in order to insert THR implants. This will be done before and after surgery in 2 groups randomized to either of 2 cement fixation methods. Gait analysis preoperative and 2 year after surgery.

Read the detailed description

The primary goal of Total Hip Replacement (THR) surgery in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis is to reduce pain and restore hip function in order to increase patient mobility and quality of life. Patients with radiological signs of osteoarthritis of the hip, hip pain and functional disability may be treated with insertion of a THA.

Two different fixation methods are used in order to insert THR implants. Cemented fixation using bone cement, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is the most commonly used fixation method in Sweden. A new bone cement, Refobacin®, already marketed in Germany is planned to be introduced in Sweden in late 2018.

The hospital is also equipped with a modern gait laboratory were the functional gait performance can be evaluated. This will be done before and after surgery in 2 groups randomized to either of 2 cement fixation methods. The subjects will undergo gait analysis befor and 2 year after surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gait analysis in people with Gait Analysis and Hip Arthritis, run by Göteborg University at 1 site in Sweden.

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 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 9 Sep 2021. 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 Sweden. 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?

Kinematics (time frame: Preop). 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 9 Sep 2021.
