Preoperative Factors and Patient-Reported Outcomes After Total Hip Arthroplasty: Multivariable Prediction Modeling

Ashwin Aggarwal et al.

Summary: Preoperative radiographic scores are crucial predictors of patient-reported outcomes at six months postoperatively. Joint space narrowing or overall KL grades were the most significant predictors for various outcomes.

Successful reconstruction of natural femoral anteversion using a short femoral stem in total hip arthroplasty surgery

Raja Hakim et al.

Summary: This study examined the MiniMAX prosthesis, a new generation, short, anatomical femoral stem made by Medacta. The results showed that this prosthesis successfully reproduced natural femoral anteversion and improved patients' functioning and lifestyle. Future large-scale prospective comparison trials are needed to further investigate this topic.

Total Hip Arthroplasties for Hartofilakidis Type C1 and C2 High Hip Dislocations Demonstrate Similar Survivorship and Clinical Function at Minimum 10-year Follow-up With Cementless Implants

Yong Huang et al.

Summary: This study compared the survivorship, clinical function, and complications of patients with Hartofilakidis Type C1 and C2 developmental dysplasia of the hips who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) with cementless implants. The results showed no significant differences between C1 and C2 hips in most of the measured outcomes. However, C2 hips had more severe preoperative leg length discrepancy and a higher percentage of subtrochanteric shortening transverse osteotomies.

Abductor muscle strengthening in THA patients operated with minimally-invasive anterolateral approach for developmental hip dysplasia

Maria Grazia Benedetti et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effectiveness of a specific exercise program for strengthening the abductor muscles in DDH patients who underwent THR. The results showed that in addition to standard rehabilitation, the rehabilitation program for strengthening the gluteal muscles led to an increase in muscle strength, improved functional performance, and increased patient satisfaction.

Comparison of Postoperative Outcomes Between Traditional Longitudinal Incision and Bikini Incision in Total Hip Arthroplasty via Direct Anterior Approach: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Qiuru Wang et al.

Summary: The study compared a traditional longitudinal incision and an oblique bikini incision during total hip arthroplasty, finding that the bikini incision improved patients' satisfaction with scar aesthetics and did not affect functional recovery or complications.

Dual Mobility Cup: Does It Improve Patient's Satisfaction After Total Hip Arthroplasty? A Prospective Comparative Randomized Study

Ahmed M. Samy et al.

Summary: This study compared the postoperative patient-reported satisfactions after implantation of two commonly used THA designs, showing that dual mobility THA provides better patient satisfaction than their standard large head alternatives specifically among elderly patients, socially unsupported individuals, farmers, heavy manual workers, and those with high levels of expectations.

Analgesic effect of single-shot ropivacaine at different layers of the surgical site in primary total hip arthroplasty: a randomised, controlled, observer-blinded study

Qiang Xiao et al.

Summary: Single-shot LIA with ropivacaine alone reduces pain scores during the first 12 postoperative hours and improves patients' satisfaction with total hip arthroplasty. LIA in the deep and superficial fascia and LIA in all layers have similar analgesic effects, with the former potentially being an alternative to the latter.

Efficacy and safety between early use and late use of celecoxib in hip osteoarthritis patients who receive total hip arthroplasty: a randomized, controlled study

Chunxue Pu et al.

Summary: Preoperative use of Celecoxib in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) has shown better analgesic efficacy and patient satisfaction management, with similar tolerance compared to postoperative use of Celecoxib.

The effect of a preoperative physical therapy education program on short-term outcomes of patients undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty: A controlled prospective clinical trial

Marina Pinskiy et al.

Summary: The study showed that a structured preoperative physical therapy education program for patients undergoing THA can reduce anxiety, promote faster recovery, reduce pain, and increase satisfaction rates. This program is recommended for routine use.

Duloxetine reduces pain after Total hip arthroplasty: a prospective, randomized controlled study

Hao Li et al.

Summary: This study found that perioperative administration of 60mg duloxetine daily significantly reduced pain severity upon movement, resting pain, morphine requirements, and increased satisfaction level at discharge within 3 weeks after total hip arthroplasty. However, there was no clinically meaningful difference between the duloxetine group and the placebo group in terms of pain reduction. Adverse events did not differ between groups.
