1. Predicting mortality by comorbidity for patients with hip arthroplasty: Prospective observational register studies of a nationwide Swedish cohort : Prediktion av död baserat på samsjuklighet efter höftprotesoperation: Prospektiva registerstudier utifrån en nationell svensk kohort
Sammanfattning : INTRODUCTION: Patients with total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to osteoarthritis (OA) are usually healthy, some with a remaining lifetime of several decades after surgery. Patients with hip arthroplasty due to a femoral neck fracture (FNF) are often old and frail with 13 % mortality within 90 days of surgery. LÄS MER
2. Outcomes following primary total hip arthroplasty. With focus on the surgeon & surgeons' perceptions about feedback
Sammanfattning : Den övergripande målsättningen med det här avhandlingsarbetet var att utveckla en metodologi som förser ortopedkirurgen med information om sina egna resultat efter primär höftprotesoperation samt att undersöka effekterna om en sådan metod skulle införas. Avhandlingen baseras på fyra delarbeten där vi i delarbete undersöker om oönskade händelser och död efter primär höft-protesoperation kan vara associerat med operatörens årliga volym? Och i delarbete II undersöker vi om det finns skillnader i det patientrapporterat utfallet baserat på operatörens erfarenhet (hur länge man varit specialist i ortopedi eller om man är ST-läkare)? Det tredje delarbetet är en kvalitativ studie där vi undersöker vilka uppfattningar det finns bland specialister i ortopedi eller ST-läkare i Sverige om individuell återkoppling av operationsresultat.

3. Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis : Who Are the Patients Referred to First-Line Intervention and What Happens to Them?
Sammanfattning : Background: First-line intervention to address osteoarthritis (OA) should include patient education, exercise therapy, and weight control if needed. Replacement surgery may be appropriate for patients who do not receive sufficient relief from non-surgical interventions. However, predicting the course of OA can be challenging. LÄS MER
4. The morselized and impacted bone graft. Animal experiments on proteins, impaction and load
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the healing and remodeling of the morselized and impacted bone allograft, commonly used in revision of loosened hip prostheses with osteolysis. The influence on remodeling by the impaction procedure per se was analyzed, as well as the effects of endogenous bone graft proteins, and an exogenously applied growth factor (OP-1). LÄS MER
5. Allograft bone in hip revision: the effect of locally applied pharmacological treatment
Sammanfattning : The clinical success of primary hip replacement is paramount but the need for revisions will continue to increase due to the increasing number of operated individuals. In Sweden, the number of hip revisions in 2012 exceeded 2,300. During implant loosening, some of the bone in the femur is lost, which can make the revision more difficult. LÄS MER
