NCT06538519

Brief Summary

The goal of this Prospective Randomized Study is to confirm presence or absence of differences in gait mechanics in direct anterior and lateral approaches for total hip arthroplasty. and to compare the clinical outcomes of both approaches. The main questions it aims to answer are: if the anterior approach to the hip is faster recovery than lateral approach? if the anterior approach to the hip has better gait mechanics than lateral approach? Participants will: undergo one of the two approaches for total hip arthroplasty. All patients will be followed up at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months and 18 months. gait analysis will be done at 6wks, 3m, and 18months.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • surgery time

    by ''Minute'' as the unit, no special description.

    intraoperative time starting from skin incision to skin closure

  • hemoglobin drop

    hemoglobin drop level between pre and postoperative.

    postoperative day one

  • hospital stays

    by ''Day'' as the unit, no special description. postoperative stay days from operation day to discharge day.

    immediately after the procedure

  • pain score

    using visual analogue scale (VAS) from 0-10 the more scale the worst the pain

    2 weeks 6 weeks 3 months 18 months

  • Harris hip score

    for measuring hip function from 0-100 the more the score the better hip function

    2 weeks 6 weeks 3 months 18 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • gait analysis

    at 6 weeks, 3 months, 18 months

Study Arms (2)

direct anterior approach group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Procedure: total hip replacement using anterior approachDevice: gait analysis at 6wks, 3 months and 18 months

lateral approach group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Procedure: total hip replacement using lateral approachDevice: gait analysis at 6wks, 3 months and 18 months

Interventions

In the lateral approach partial detachment of the anterior one-third of the gluteus medius muscle.

lateral approach group

the anterior approach using an internervous plane between the tensor fascia latae and the sartorius muscle.

direct anterior approach group

gait analysis done in the gait lab at the mentioned postoperative periods

direct anterior approach grouplateral approach group

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with primary osteoarthritis or osteonecrosis of the hip who consented for treatment with a total hip arthroplasty (THA) through an anterior or lateral approach.
  • Age between 20 - 60 years of age.
  • The participant had to be independent and physically active, which characterized as having the capacity to carry out daily tasks, ascend two flights of stairs, and able to walk for 15 minutes.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with bilateral hip affection.
  • Body mass index (BMI) greater than 40.
  • Diagnosis other than primary osteoarthritis or osteonecrosis.
  • Prior hip or spine surgery.
  • chronic uncontrolled comorbidities, psychological disorders.
  • American Society of Anaesthesiologists score (ASA) higher than 2
  • chronic neurological deficits that influence gait.
  • any limb length discrepancy more than 1 cm.
  • Any postoperative complication that will lead to delay in weight bearing.
