11. Factors affecting cup wear and migration in total hip arthroplasty
Sammanfattning : Höftprotesoperationer har blivit en mycket vanlig operation med generellt goda resultat. Allt fler och allt yngre patienter opereras vilket ställer högre krav på att höftprotesen fungerar bättre och håller längre så att en omoperation kan undvikas. LÄS MER
12. Clinical results after hip fracture - with special focus on hip arthroplasty
Sammanfattning : Hip fractures are of major concern worldwide, but even if literature isabundant, there are still gaps to fill. The global outcome needs to be betterunderstood, including patient-reported outcome. Many studies focus onimproving surgical outcome, with less focus on medical complications. LÄS MER
13. The role of head size in total hip arthroplasty - Dislocation, wear and cup stability
Sammanfattning : Large heads are used in total hip arthroplasty, with the aim of reducing the risk of dislocation, but there are concerns related to polyethylene wear, corrosion and cup loosening. Paper I is an observational study that aimed to investigate whether the transition from 28-mm to 32-mm heads and thereafter to 36-mm heads in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) after osteoarthritis has been followed by a reduction in dislocation rates in the Nordic countries.

14. Local infiltration analgesia in knee arthroplasty
Sammanfattning : Local infiltration analgesia (LIA) is a new technique for postoperative pain management following knee arthroplasty. LIA involves a long-acting local anesthetic (ropivacaine), a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (ketorolac) and epinephrine infiltrated into the knee joint during surgery and injected postoperatively via a catheter.

15. Subjective Outcomes after Knee Arthroplasty
Sammanfattning : Outcome questionnaires are increasingly being established as a validated mode of acquiring unbiased information on the results after health interventions. Using an assortment of questionnaires, distributed by mail to 27 372 and to a subgroup of 3 600 patients on file in the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty register (SKAR), relevant questionnaires were found to represent a feasable means of acquiring information regarding these elderly patients in a cross-sectional design.
