简要总结
Our study aims to evaluate the effect of spinopelvic movement on hip functions in individuals who have undergone total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study will contribute to the literature by helping identify and prevent issues experienced by THA patients, ranging from hip pain to limited mobility and even hip dislocation.
详细描述
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a widely accepted surgical procedure that effectively alleviates pain, enhances mobility, and improves physical function in patients with hip osteoarthritis. However, improper placement of implants during surgery can lead to complications such as abnormal edge loading, early wear of polyethylene components, ceramic insert fractures, or hip dislocations, often requiring early revision surgeries. While Lewinnek's "safe zone" (30°-50° inclination and 5°-25° anteversion for the acetabular component) has traditionally been used as a guideline, recent studies have reported significant dislocation rates even within these parameters, highlighting spinopelvic movement abnormalities as a critical factor. Normal spinopelvic-hip mechanics allow for adaptive changes in the pelvis and acetabulum during positional transitions, thereby preventing anterior or posterior impingement in the hip joint. However, patients with restricted lumbosacral mobility are at a greater risk of impingement-related symptoms. To address these challenges, advanced metrics such as sacral slope difference (ΔSS), pelvic-femoral angle (PFA), and combined sagittal index (CSI) have been introduced to better define functional safe zones and assess risks of hip impingement and dislocation. While the relationship between CSI and hip dislocations is established, its impact on hip function remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the effect of spinopelvic movement on hip function in individuals who have undergone THA. By identifying and preventing complications such as hip pain, mobility restrictions, and dislocations, the research seeks to provide meaningful contributions to the literature and improve patient outcomes.

结局指标
主要结局
Radiographic Angular Measurements
时间窗: At least 12 months after surgery
The angular measurements of the implant positions will be assessed using pre-existing routine control radiographs. This includes analysis of the pelvic tilt, acetabular anteversion, and femoral anteversion, which will be measured by two experienced radiologists using the General Electric Centricity PACS system.
WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index)
时间窗: At least 12 months after surgery
The WOMAC score will be used to assess pain, stiffness, and physical function in patients with hip osteoarthritis. It includes 24 questions across three domains: pain, stiffness, and physical function
Harris Hip Score (HHS)
时间窗: At least 12 months after surgery
The Harris Hip Score will be used to assess the hip function and pain level in patients who have undergone total hip arthroplasty. It consists of several domains, including pain, function, range of motion, and deformity.
Oxford Hip Score
时间窗: At least 12 months after surgery
The Oxford Hip Score will be used to assess hip function and the impact of hip arthritis on patients' quality of life. It includes questions on pain and function during daily activities.
SF-12 (Short Form-12 Health Survey)
时间窗: At least 12 months after surgery
The SF-12 is a 12-item questionnaire used to assess the overall health-related quality of life. It includes physical and mental health components and provides a summary score for each.
TUG (Timed Up and Go) Test
时间窗: At least 12 months after surgery
The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is a functional assessment to evaluate mobility, balance, and risk of falls. The patient is asked to rise from a seated position, walk 3 meters, turn around, walk back, and sit down again. The total time taken to complete the task is measured in seconds. It is useful in assessing recovery progress and mobility after total hip arthroplasty (THA).
