OBJECTIVES To investigate prospectively long term patient relevant outcomes after unilateral total hip replacement (THR) for osteoarthritis (OA). To identify non-responders to this intervention and patient related predictors of unsatisfactory outcome. METHODS A case-control study comparing health related quality of life of 219 patients (mean age 71) after THR with that of a matched reference ...
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Intra-articular injection of hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid; HA) products is available to treat early osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee in Taiwan. We tested whether HA products with different molecular weights have significantly different effects on clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness. METHODS Thirty-seven patients with mild to moderate OA of both knees underwent five weekl...
OBJECTIVE Economic evaluation typically is conducted using health state utilities to estimate treatment benefits. However, such outcomes are often missing from studies of clinical effectiveness. This study aims to bridge that gap by providing appropriate methods to link values from the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) to the EQ-5D utility instrument. METH...
PURPOSE Osteoarthritic pain is largely considered to be inflammatory pain. Sensory nerve fibers innervating the knee have been shown to be significantly damaged in rat models of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in which the subchondral bone junction is destroyed, and this induces neuropathic pain (NP). Pregabalin was developed as a pain killer for NP; however, there are no reports on pregabalin use in ...
OBJECTIVE To identify predictors of pain and disability in knee osteoarthritis. DESIGN A one-year prospective analysis of determinants of pain and functioning in knee osteoarthritis. STUDY SETTING Primary care providers in a medium-sized city. PATIENTS A total of 111 patients aged from 35 to 75 with clinical symptoms and radiographic grading (Kellgren-Lawrence 2-4) of knee osteoarthritis ...
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of preoperative patient characteristics on health outcomes 6 months after total hip replacement (THR), to support patient's decision making in daily practice with predicted health states and satisfaction thresholds. By giving incremental effects for different patient subgroups, we support comparative effectiveness research (CER) on osteo...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the results of total hip arthroplasty in patients with osteoarthritis and to identify predictors of poor functional outcome. MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective observational study in patients operated on in 2006 with total hip arthroplasty in 4 hospitals in Guipúzcoa, followed up for 1 year. OUTCOME VARIABLES pain, physical function, complications, mortality, quality o...
Objectives: To investigate prospectively long term patient relevant outcomes after unilateral total hip replacement (THR) for osteoarthritis (OA). To identify non-responders to this intervention and patient related predictors of unsatisfactory outcome. Methods: A case-control study comparing health related quality of life of 219 patients (mean age 71) after THR with that of a matched reference ...
We developed a user-friendly Internet-based tool for patients undergoing total hip replacement (THR) due to osteoarthritis to predict their pain and function after surgery. In the first step, the key questions were identified by statistical modelling in a data set of 375 patients undergoing THR. Based on multiple regression, we identified the two most predictive WOMAC questions for pain and the...
Aim: To determine whether hyaluronan (HA) delays and/or reduces the knee replacement surgery (KRS) in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). Material and Methods: A prospective, single-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, pilot clinical trial with two treatment groups [HA (Adant ® ) treatment group and placebo treatment group] was conducted. The intra-articular treatments (HA or pl...
