| Study acronym | Patient specific biological responses to total joint replacements |
| Study objectives | This research will be carried out at the University of Leeds and is a collaborative research programme between the Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering and Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeons, Mr Martin Stone (Chapel Allerton) and Mr David Shaw (Bradford Royal Infirmary). Patients will be recruited from two groups, patients awaiting hip replacement operations and patients with long-term polyethylene implants. Approximately 100 patients from each group will be studied. |
| Ethics approval(s) | MREC approved (ref: CA03/008) |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Topic: Musculoskeletal; Subtopic: Musculoskeletal (all Subtopics); Disease: Musculoskeletal |
| Intervention | Patients awaiting hip replacement will have an additional 30 ml of blood collection pre-operatively. Inclusion in the study will not affect patient care in any way, and the surgical procedure will be the same whether the patient chooses to participate in the study or not. Patients with long-term implants will be invited by letter to attend the clinic to volunteer the additional 30 ml blood sample. The blood samples will be processed by the researchers at the University of Leeds, where the white blood cells will be isolated and used in culture with real wear particles generated by articulation. Cytokine production will be measured by enzyme-linked immunospecific assay (ELISA). Approximately 1 x 10^6 cells will be stored for genetic analysis to determine specific base changes in the DNA. The clinical results of the patients will be followed in follow-up clinics. The control group will comprise approximately 30 healthy volunteers from the research group (iMBE, Faculty of Biological Sciences & School of Mechanical Engineering). A single 30 ml blood sample will be collected from each control subject by trained personel. Collection of blood samples for research purposes is performed routinely and approval has been awarded from the Faculty of Biological Sciences Research Ethics Committee. |
| Intervention type | Other |
