Revision surgery is overestimated in hip replacement
OBJECTIVES The Kaplan-Meier estimation is widely used in orthopedics to calculate the probability of revision surgery. Using data from a long-term follow-up study, we aimed to assess the amount of bias introduced by the Kaplan-Meier estimator in a competing risk setting. METHODS We describe both the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the competing risk model, and explain why the competing risk model ...
متن کاملHip Surgery in Quiescent or Active Tubercular Hip Arthritis; Is Reactivation Risk Really a Matter
About 15 % of all musculoskeletal tuberculosis (TB) have hip involvement. Early anti-tubercular drug therapy and other conservative treatment including short-term traction and mobilization programs could prevent hip joint destruction. Reactivation of TB accounts for a significant of active TB incidence, especially in the developed countries with a low TB prevalence. The risk of TB activation ...
متن کاملAge at hip or knee joint replacement surgery predicts likelihood of revision surgery.
We compared revision and mortality rates of 4668 patients undergoing primary total hip and knee replacement between 1989 and 2007 at a University Hospital in New Zealand. The mean age at the time of surgery was 69 years (16 to 100). A total of 1175 patients (25%) had died at follow-up at a mean of ten years post-operatively. The mean age of those who died within ten years of surgery was 74.4 ye...
متن کاملOsteotomy for Revision Total Hip Replacement
Discussion. We previously reported bone and fat levels some I 2 times higher than those after systemic injection (Hoddinott et al 1990) and have now extended our sampling to provide a pharmacokinetic profile over the important 24 hours after operation (Fig. 1). The results indicate that the regional intravenous administration of a single 750 mg dose of cefuroxime gave satisfactory haematoma lev...
متن کاملThe Oxford hip scores for primary and revision hip replacement.
We have used the Oxford hip score to monitor the progress of 1908 primary and 279 revision hip replacements undertaken since the start of 1995. Our review programme began in early 1999 and has generated 3900 assessments. The mean pre-operative scores for primary and revision cases were 40.95 and 40.11, respectively. The mean annual score for primary replacement at between 12 and 84 months range...
