简要总结
In the present study, two types of cementless femoral stem- UTS Stem and UTF-reduced Stem- were utilized in total hip arthroplasty. Due to the design for proximal femur fixation, both femoral stems could prevent stress shielding around the implant, further preventing osteolysis. The difference between both femoral stems is the length, in which UTS Stem is 20% shorter than UTF-reduced Stem. The clinical outcomes of both femoral stems will be compared. Both femoral stems are expected to have equally good radiologic outcome and clinical performance.
详细描述
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common orthopedic procedure aimed at improving joint function and alleviating pain in patients with hip joint degeneration. However, the phenomenon of stress shielding-whereby the mechanical properties of the prosthesis lead to reduced load transmission to the surrounding bone-can compromise long-term outcomes. In particular, uncemented THA designs are susceptible to stress shielding, potentially resulting in bone resorption and implant loosening.
To address this challenge, the study focuses on optimizing femoral stem fixation within the proximal femur in two specific stem designs: the UTS and the UTF reduced stem. These stems are strategically designed to enhance load transfer while minimizing stress shielding effects.
A total of 60 patients who are undergoing total hip arthroplasty at Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital will be recruited, including 30 patients in the "UTS" group and 30 patients in the "UTF-reduced" group.The clinical assessments including Success Rate of prosthesis, Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) for pain, Harris Hip Score (HHS), Medical Outcome Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) and : Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scanning for bone mineral density monitoring.

结局指标
主要结局
Numerical Rating Scale
时间窗: Change from baseline at 1 year
Numerical Rating Scale is a patient-reported outcome measure. The scale ranges from 0 to 10. A score of 0 represents no pain, while a score of 10 represents extreme pain.
Harris Hip Score
时间窗: Change from baseline at 1 year
Harris Hip Score includes 4 sections that evaluate pain, function, deformity, and range of motion. Total scores is from 0 to 100, higher scores represent a better outcome.
DEXA scanning
时间窗: Change from baseline at 1 year
DEXA scanning is used to monitor and quantify bone mineral density, which helps to understand if the implant has an effect on the change of bone mineral density.
Success rate
时间窗: Duration of 1 year
Failure is defined as removal or revision of any components as a result of mechanical failure or complications. Sucess is defined as implants that are sucessfully implanted without any failure for the duration of 1 year. The success rate will be represented as a percentage (%).
Medical Outcome Study Short Form-36
时间窗: Change from baseline at 1 year
SF-36 is a set of generic, coherent, and easily administered quality-of-life measures. These measures rely upon patient self-reporting and are now widely utilized by managed care organizations and by Medicare for routine monitoring and assessment of care outcomes in adult patients. It consists of two sections, physical component summary and mental component summary, with 36 items in total.
