Download or read book Joint Arthroplasty written by Shinichi Imura and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of total joint arthroplasty throughout the world has contributed manifold benefits to patients who suffer from joint diseases. Concurrently, however, there has been an increase in revision surgery. Many orthopedic surgeons agree that durability of prostheses is an eternal problem. In particular, periprosthetic osteolysis recently has been identified as one of the serious problems affecting prosthetic dura bility. To improve durability, osteolysis and many other problems must be investi gated and solved both experimentally and clinically with respect to such aspects as prosthetic material, design, and biological and biomechanical behavior. This book comprises 37 papers that were presented by orthopedic surgeons and biomedical engineers at the 28th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for Replace ment Arthroplasty, held in March 1998 in Kanazawa, Japan. The volume is thus a compilation of the latest knowledge about the pathogenesis and reduction of osteolysis and wear, newly developed total hip prostheses, and other current topics of total knee arthroplasty. We earnestly hope that this book will be of benefit to clinicians and researchers, and that it will contribute to the creation of more durable total joint prostheses in the future.

Download or read book Orthogeriatrics written by Paolo Falaschi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new open access edition supported by the Fragility Fracture Network aims at giving the widest possible dissemination on fragility fracture (especially hip fracture) management and notably in countries where this expertise is sorely needed. It has been extensively revised and updated by the experts of this network to provide a unique and reliable content in one single volume. Throughout the book, attention is given to the difficult question of how to provide best practice in countries where the discipline of geriatric medicine is not well established and resources for secondary prevention are scarce. The revised and updated chapters on the epidemiology of hip fractures, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, surgery, anaesthesia, medical management of frailty, peri-operative complications, rehabilitation and nursing are supplemented by six new chapters. These include an overview of the multidisciplinary approach to fragility fractures and new contributions on pre-hospital care, treatment in the emergency room, falls prevention, nutrition and systems for audit. The reader will have an exhaustive overview and will gain essential, practical knowledge on how best to manage fractures in elderly patients and how to develop clinical systems that do so reliably.
Download or read book Improving Rehabilitation Outcomes After Total Hip Arthroplasty written by Dana L. Judd and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hip osteoarthritis (OA) is a complex condition requiring characterization of the effects on individuals' function. The remediation of muscle strength and functional mobility deficits is not achieved through total hip arthroplasty (THA) alone, thus understanding the time course of recovery and the effects of rehabilitation will inform rehabilitation priorities. The overall purpose of this doctoral thesis is to characterize the strength and functional deficits present in end-stage OA and following THA, and to investigate the efficacy of a rehabilitation intervention. The first study examined strength and functional performance in patients with end-stage hip OA compared with healthy adults of similar age. The results of this study indicate that individuals with hip OA had strength deficits and performed poorer on tests of stair climbing, sit-to-stand and walking. They were also less physically active than their healthy peers. These findings indicate that prior to THA, these individuals have diminished strength and functional performance, which should be considered during postoperative rehabilitation planning. The second study examined the time course of strength and functional recovery following THA. The results of this study indicated that patients see a significant decline in muscle strength and functional performance one month following surgery. Twelve months after THA, patients exhibit significant deficits in knee extensor and flexor strength compared with healthy adults. Furthermore, although not statistically significant, differences in functional performance compared to healthy adults remained. The third study examined the efficacy of a comprehensive, multi-component (CMC) rehabilitation program. The results of this study indicated that individuals who participated in the rehabilitation intervention had greater improvements in stair climbing ability, walking ability, balance and stability compared with individuals who did not receive intervention (CON). Further, there tended to be greater improvement in muscle strength by the end of intervention. Importantly, participation in the CMC intervention did not compromise safety, as there were no incidences of hip dislocation, injury or falls in either group. Overall, the results of these studies indicated strength and functional deficits present in end-stage hip OA may not be completely remediated by THA surgery alone. An 8-week multi-component rehabilitation program may enhance recovery after THA.

Download or read book Rehabilitation After Elective Total Hip Replacement written by Corinne Coulter and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primary total hip replacement surgery was performed on over 40,000 Australians in 2013. While THR is tremendously successful in terms of pain relief for patients, outcome studies report some residual impairment and functional limitations in these patients post operatively. Despite the rising number of hip replacements performed, the optimum rehabilitation after total hip replacement lacks consensus throughout the literature and no evidence based guidelines exist worldwide on this topic. Physiotherapy exercises and protocols within rehabilitation programs are largely based on level 4 evidence. There is little evidence to support the effectiveness of physiotherapy post total hip replacement, and little to support physiotherapy supervised exercise programs in favour of home exercise programs. This thesis aimed to inform best practice in rehabilitation following hip replacement. First, by systematically reviewing the current evidence for total hip replacement rehabilitation. Secondly by a prospective study to determine the benefit of supervised and unsupervised rehabilitation interventions on patient outcomes, namely functional and quality of life measures (WOMAC and SF-36 scores); post total hip replacement surgery in the adult population. Finally, to contribute to the evidence supporting clinical decisions in Australia for total hip replacement rehabilitation. Our systematic review aimed to synthesise the current literature for rehabilitative exercise effectiveness on strength, gait, function and quality of life after a total hip replacement including comparison in a home based or supervised setting. Five randomised controlled trials were included comprising 234 participants. Meta-analysis showed that physiotherapy can improve abductor muscle strength of the operated leg, as well as gait speed and cadence. Function and quality of life measures were unable to be measured due to the broad variation in outcome measures used in the studies. There was no difference between supervised and unsupervised exercise programs. Further well designed research is needed to compare the efficacy of home based to supervised programs. A randomised controlled trial was performed to investigate the efficacy of two rehabilitation programs; a supervised (centre based) and an independent (home-based) program in the early phase of rehabilitation (
