1. 16. Osteoarthritis. Epidemiologic and genetic aspects

   Författare :Jonas Franklin; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; body mass index; knee; hip; epidemiology; Osteoarthritis; occupation; hip fracture; inheritance; natural history;

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to (I) assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR) due to osteoarthritis (OA), (II) assess the association between the mechanical load of work and THR and TKR due to OA, (III) evaluate the natural history of radiographic hip OA with regards to THR and hip fracture, (IV) to determine the prevalence of radiographic OA in patients with hip fracture, and (V) to examine and compare the inheritance patterns of THR for OA and hip fracture. OA was previously regarded as a consequence of the wear and tear the joint is subjected to during one’s lifetime. LÄS MER

3. 17. Delirium during Hospitalisation : Incidence, Risk Factors, Early Signs and Patients' Experiences of Being Delirious

   Författare :Gill Sörensen Duppils; Karin Wikblad; Sjödén Per-Olov; Astrid Norberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Nursing; delirium; Acute confusional state; hip surgery; hip fracture; replacement surgery; cognitive function; MMSE; Follow-up; health-related quality of life; HRQOL; SF-36; Omvårdnad; Nursing; Omvårdnad; omvårdnadsforskning med medicinsk inriktning; Caring Sciences; Delirium i samband med höftfraktur;

   Sammanfattning : Delirium is common among old patients admitted to hospital, but is often a neglected problem in patient care. The principal aim of this thesis was to evaluate aspects of delirium in relation to incidence, risk factors, behavioural changes, cognitive function and health-related quality of life (HRQOL).

4. 18. The Soft Tissues in Osteoarthritis and Arthroplasty of the Hip

   Författare :Sarunas Tarasevicius; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; total hip replacement; intracapsular pressure; Osteoarthritis; sonography;

   Sammanfattning : Ultrasonography as a tool measuring the anterior capsular distance in THA was so far not described nor validated. Comparing the measurements of the capsular distance set with a caliper/ruler with those performed with ultrasonography on a THA model demonstrated a high correlation between measurements. LÄS MER

5. 19. The Uncemented Cup in Total Hip Arthroplasty : stability, Wear and Osteolysis

   Författare :Volker T C Otten; Sead Crnalic; Kjell G Nilsson; André Stark; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Artificial hip joint replacement has undergone tremendous development in the past 100 years. In the beginning, complications, such as infection and early loosening, were the rule rather than the exception. Today, complications of any sort are rare during the first decade after the operation.

7. 20. Evaluation of methods of measuring wear of polyethylene acetabular components intotal hip arthroplasty

   Författare :Charles R Bragdon; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Total hip replacement; polyethylene; wear; radiostereometric analysis; radiograph;

   Sammanfattning : Background: The introduction of highly cross-linked, wear resistant polyethylene acetabularcomponents for clinical use in total hip replacements has intensified the interest in and need for highlyaccurate methods of measuring wear from clinical radiographs. There are several methods currentlyavailable for measuring the relative displacement of the femoral head into the acetabular componentresulting from the combination of plastic deformation and wear of the polyethylene bearing surface.
