RESUMO
Purpose: We examined and compared the daily step counts and health-related quality of life of patients before undergoing either bilateral or unilateral (with or without arthritis in the opposite joint) total hip arthroplasty (THA), and for 6 months afterwards.Participants and Methods: Participants were patients who were living at home and were requested to wear accelerometers and log their daily step count preoperatively and again 6 months postoperatively. Additionally, they completed the Oxford Hip Score and EuroQol 5-Dimension questionnaires at both time points.Results: Data from 40 patients were analyzed. Patients underwent bilateral total hip arthroplasty (n=13), unilateral total hip arthroplasty with arthritis in the opposite joint (n=13), and unilateral total hip arthroplasty without arthritis in the opposite joint (n=14). The Oxford Hip Score and EuroQol 5-Dimension score showed that the daily step counts of patients who underwent bilateral or unilateral total hip arthroplasty without arthritis in the opposite joint significantly increased postoperatively, but that of patients who received unilateral THA with arthritis in the opposite joint did not change significantly. The Oxford Hip Score indicated an improvement in hip joint function after surgery, but the EuroQol 5-Dimension score did not show a significant change postoperatively in patients who received bilateral total hip arthroplasty.Conclusion: The pre- and postoperative comparisons of the participant’s daily step count after bilateral and unilateral operations without arthritis on the other side showed improvements in their amount of daily life activities. In all surgeries, Oxford Hip Score improvements were confirmed. The EuroQol 5-Dimension score of bilateral operations did not change. Bilateral operations and an understanding of unilateral postoperative qualitative support will be necessary in the future.
RESUMO
study the effect of postoperative application of tranexamic acid on recovery and prognosis of unilateral total hip arthroplasty. Methods One hundred and twenty patients who received unilateral total hip arthroplasty in 541st General Hospital of Dongzhen Town from August 2016 to August 2018 were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, with 60 cases in each group. The control group received intravenous injection of tranexamic acid 10 min before skin incision after anesthesia; on the basis of the control group, the observation group was given tranexamic acid intravenously again 3 h after operation, and the control group was no longer given repeated injection of tranexamic acid. The hemorrhage, hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit(HCT), hip joint Harris score and complications were compared between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss and transfusion between the two groups (P＞0.05); the drainage volume, total blood loss, dominant blood loss and recessive blood loss in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(227.43 ± 20.14) ml vs. (280.91 ± 23.56) ml, (601.01 ± 42.84) ml vs. (667.04 ± 49.21) ml, (281.93 ± 18.50) ml vs. (322.06 ± 21.23) ml, (330.94 ± 21.73) ml vs. (370.03 ± 25.90) ml] (P＜0.05). After operation 3 d, the levels of Hb and HCT in observation group were higher than those in control group [(117.07 ± 9.60) g/L vs. (102.19 ± 8.31) g/L, (35.05 ± 2.91)% vs. (32.01 ± 2.77)%] (P＜0.05). After operation 2 weeks and 1 month after operation, the hip joint Harris score in observation group was higher than that in control group [(52.03 ± 4.02) scores vs. (48.37 ± 5.05) scores, (67.86 ± 5.29) scores vs. (61.23±5.10) scores] (P＜0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of intermuscular venous thrombosis, local hematoma and incision exudation between the two groups(P＞0.05). Conclusions On the basis of preoperative application of tranexamic acid, combined postoperative application of tranexamic acid can significantly reduce the blood loss after unilateral total hip arthroplasty, and help the early recovery of joint function, without increasing complications and with high safety.

Objective To analyze hematosis of modified homemade Buxue decoction discriminate on patients with hemorrhagic anaemia after unilateral total hip arthroplasty and prognosis.Methods88 patients with hemorrhagic anaemia who underwent unilateral total hip arthroplasty in our hospital from February 2015 to Janurary 2017 were selected, they were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, 44 cases in each group.The control group received pure western medicine after unilateral total hip arthroplasty, the observation group added modified homemade Buxue decoction discriminate on the basis of the control group.Clinical therapeutic effect on anemia, hematosis indexes including hemoglobin (HB), red blood cell (RBC), erythrocrit (HCT) in the two groups were compared, occurrence of complications during postoperative treatment, hip scores were used to compared prognostic differences in the two groups.ResultsTotal effective rate of the observation group 95.45% was significantly higher than the control group (81.82%) (P<0.05);there was no significant difference in Hb, RBC and HCT level before the treatment in the two groups, Hb (130.23±13.09)g/L, RBC (4.16±0.71)×1012/L and HCT (0.42±0.03) in the observation group after the treatment were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05);complication rate in the observation group 9.10% was significantly lower than the control group (25.00%) (P<0.05);there was no significant difference in hip joint function scores before the treatment in the two groups, hip joint function score in the observation group after the treatment (79.73±5.42)scores was significantly higher than the control group (P<0.01).ConclusionTreatment effect of modified homemade Buxue decoction discriminate on hemorrhagic anaemia after unilateral total hip arthroplasty is significant, can promote recovery of hematosis, hip joint and motor function effectively.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to evaluate objectively and quantitatively gait improvement after total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a 3-dimensional computerized Vicon motion analyzer. METHOD: A preoperative gait evaluation was performed within one month before surgery and two postoperative gait evaluations at 6 months intervals after surgery. Pre- and postoperative gait parameters of 176 patients with unilateral total hip arthroplasty were evaluated and data were compared with those of 56 healthy persons. RESULTS: 1) Single limb support of affected limb increased significantly at postoperative 6 and 12 months compared with preoperative data. 2) The improvements of hip flexion and abduction of affected limb were in almost normal range at postoperative 12 months. 3) Maximal hip flexor moment in terminal stance of affected limb reached to nearly normal level at postoperative 12 months. CONCLUSION: A quantitative gait analyzer is a very useful tool to assess objectively the success of THA as substantiated by the results of this study with a significant improvement in all the parameters of gait.

Total hip replacement arthroplasty ( THA ) is a useful treatment method in the patients with avascular necrosis ( AVN ) or degenerative arthritis ( DA ) to relieve pain and recovery of function. Beside pain relief , patients want improvement in gait pattern , which is related with Jeg length discrepancy, range of motion, and muscle power. It could be difficult to analyse the cause of limp accuratelv by the clini-cal observation. Therefore gait analysis will he a good tool for the identification of the factors related to the recovery of patients after the operation. This study was undertaken in an attempt to evaluate the gait characteristics of 16 patients with unilateral hip disease treated with THA. We compared the outcome of qualitative and quantitative analysis of gait and also compared with those of 14 healthy person. The results were as followed : 1. The patients showed short single support time on their painful limb prior to THA , but postoperatively , it was increased to near normal (p<0.05). 2. Preoperatively, the range of hip flexion of the sound side was increased more than those of the normal control and the painful limh. After the THA, it returned to the near normal (p<0.05~). The hip extension of the painful limh uas increased postoperatively (P<0.05) but still it was lower than normai subject. The hip ahduction and internal roiation of sound side was also increased to near normal after THA. In conclusion, great improvement ot the gait characteristics in patients with hip disease after THA was found and this gait improvement can he analyzed quantitatively hy gait analysis.
