The Q-REDUCE Study

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
THA
Dislocation, Hip
PROM
Registration Number
NCT06639334
Lead Sponsor
University of Southern Denmark
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to design a fast-track pathway for patients referred to the University Hospital of Southern Denmark, Esbjerg, with high probability of having a dislocated hip prosthesis with the primary aim to reduce the time from arrival to reduction and the total hospitalization time. Secondary aims are to

* investigate whether quicker prosthesis reduction influences on hip function and quality of life afterwards

* reduce the pain experience immediately and in the long term

* increase patient satisfaction

without changing the overall complication rate and readmission/mortality
