Gait Pattern Between a Cemented and Non-cemented Femur Stem

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Hip Fractures
Randomized
Gait Analysis
Hip Arthroplasty
Registration Number
NCT04791605
Lead Sponsor
Göteborg University
Brief Summary

Acute cervical femoral neck fracture patients randomized to either cemented or non-cemented stem. The investigators used gait analysis to evaluate if patients operated with a cemented stem showed more favourable hip kinematics and kinetics when compared with a group of patients operated with a non-cemented stem.

Detailed Description

45 patients randomized to receive either a cemented or a non-cemented stem were studied . 2 years after the operation gait analysis was performed with a 16-camera motion capture system together with 2 force-plates. Hip kinematics and kinetics were analysed and 70 subjects served as controls.
