About this study

Official title: Intraoperative Measurement Technique for Improved Accuracy of Femoral Offset and Leg Length in Total Hip Replacement: A Retrospective Cohort Study

This retrospective cohort study included 50 consecutive patients who underwent THR. All surgeries were performed by the same orthopedic surgeon, using posterior approach. In all patients, the same technique of intraoperative measurement of the femoral offset and limb length was used, entailed calculation of the distances between reference points on the ischium, greater trochanter, and the screwdriver. Measurements were collected from radiographic imaging data and surgical reports.

Read the detailed description

Introduction: Restoration of limb length equality and femoral offset is critical for the success of THR. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a novel intraoperative measurement technique in minimizing errors in leg length and offset in total hip replacement (THR).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 50 consecutive patients who underwent THR. All surgeries were performed by the same orthopedic surgeon, using posterior approach. In all patients, the same technique of intraoperative measurement of the femoral offset and limb length was used, entailed calculation of the distances between reference points on the ischium, greater trochanter, and the screwdriver. Measurements were collected from radiographic imaging data and surgical reports.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Total Hip and Limb Length Discrepancy, run by Ziv Medical Center.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

outcome (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Dec 2023.
