چکیده
the National Institute for Health and clinical excellence states that research into the clinical and cost effectiveness of total hip arthroplasty as a treatment for hip fracture is a research priority. can a suitable trial investigating total hip arthroplasty for hip fracture currently be delivered in the NHS? A mixed methods approach to situate a feasibility trial within the context of the United Kingdom’s clinical practice. A process evaluation of the WHiTe Two trial comparing total hip artroplasty with and without dual mobility component in the treatment of displaced intracapsular fractures of the proximal femur

The Warwick Hip Trauma Evaluation Two – an abridged protocol for the WHiTE Two Study
Fractures of the proximal femur are one of the greatest challenges facing the medical community, constituting a heavy socioeconomic burden worldwide. Controversy exists regarding the optimal treatment for independent patients with displaced intracapsular fractures of the proximal femur. The recognised alternatives are hemiarthroplasty and total hip replacement. At present there is no establishe...
متن کاملBone density study of the proximal femur after hip arthroplasty with porous-coated implants
Progressive loss of bone mineral density around the femora! component of total hip replacement continues to pose a threat to long term prosthetic survival. A linear study was undertaken to measure bone mineral density on a monthly basis following total hip arthroplasty in 11 male patients. The opposite femur was used as the control measurement. Bone mineral density was unchanged at two mo...
متن کاملThe effect of alendronate treatment on cortical thickness of the proximal femur in postmenopausal women
Background: Bisphosphonates (BPs) are used extensively for managing the osteoporosis. There are some controversies on atypical fractures of femur that associated with increase in cortical thickness (CT) and BPs’ use. In this study, the effects of alendronate consumption were studied on femoral CT as a predictor for atypical fracture. Methods: Forty nine post-menopausal women age...
متن کاملWarwick Hip Trauma Study: a randomised clinical trial comparing interventions to improve outcomes in internally fixed intracapsular fractures of the proximal femur. Protocol for The WHiT Study
BACKGROUND Controversy exists regarding the optimal treatment for patients with displaced intracapsular fractures of the proximal femur. The recognised treatment alternatives are arthroplasty and internal fixation. The principal criticism of internal fixation is the high rate of non-union; up to 30% of patients will have a failure of the fixation leading to revision surgery. We believe that imp...
