Study information
| Primary study design | Interventional |
|---|---|
| Study design | Multicentre, randomised, controlled, parallel group trial |
| Secondary study design | Randomised controlled trial |
| Scientific title | |
| Study objectives | Anatomy sparing two-incision total hip arthroplasty (THA) has a better functional outcome than conventional THA. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Received from the local medical ethics committee |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Total hip replacement (THR), arthritis |
| Intervention | Total hip arthroplasty: conventional lateral approach or two-incision anatomy sparing approach. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
The purpose of the study is to scientifically determine the functional effectiveness of anatomy sparing surgery in total hip arthroplasty in comparison with traditional open surgery, measured by the Harris Hip Score. |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
1. Number of virtual admission days. Virtual is defined as the number of days until the patient is ready for discharge in the opinion of the surgeon and the patient. Any additional days due to logistic circumstances are not included in this main objective. Virtual discharge criteria are: |
