1 Understanding Total Hip Replacement Brian J. White MD Orthopaedic Specialist in Disorders of the Hip Assistant Team Physician Denver Nuggets Western Orthopaedics Denver, Colorado
2 Introduction This is designed to provide you with a better understanding of: Anatomy of the Hip Risks and Benefits of Total Hip Replacement Expectations of the procedure
3 My Training Washington and Lee University BA Chemistry Georgetown University School of Medicine Medical Degree NYU/Hospital for Joint Diseases Orthopaedic Surgical Residency Steadman-Hawkins Sports Medicine, Vail, CO Sports Medicine Fellowship in Knee, Shoulder and Hip Mentors: Dr. Steadman and Dr. Philippon
4 Hip Anatomy The hip is a true ball and socket joint formed by two bony structures The Femoral Head (Ball) The Acetabulum (Cup) Cartilage is the cushion between the ball and the cup It allows for smooth, full motion of the joint.
5 The Arthritic Hip The carilage or cushion between the ball and the cup wears away The hip joint becomes bone on bone with no cushion between The joint becomes stiff and painful
6 Common Symptoms with an Pain with: Arthritic Hip Walking, twisting, pivoting and bending over Difficulty with: Putting on shoes and socks, shaving legs, getting out of a low chair Loss of function and fun activities Pain worsens with time and more use
7 Non-operative strategies for an arthritic hip NSAIDS as needed for pain Modification of activity to avoid pain Physical Therapy Hip injections- typically not as helpful as they are in the shoulder or the knee, so I will rarely recommend them
8 When is it time to have your hip replaced? Your pain is experienced daily and getting worse You have already modified your activity and lifestyle and are not happy with the restrictions that you have You are getting upset because the pain and restrictions are getting to be too excessive This is an elective procedure YOU decide when it is time to move forward this
9 What type of hip replacement Posterior approach do I perform? There has been no clinically proven benefit to other approaches This allows me to get your total hip in the most perfect position (this has been proven to affect the longevity and durability of your total hip replacement) Stryker components Ceramic femoral head on Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene NO METAL ON METAL components
10 Stryker Total Hip Replacement Tritanium Cup Secure Fit Stem Biolox Ceramic Head X3 Polyethylene Liner
11 Durability of a total hip replacement 80-90% should last 15 years if used responsibly Total hip replacement remains the best procedure we have in Orthopaedics It very reliably takes away pain and improves function
12 What activity can you do after a total hip replacement? Walking, elliptical, hiking Aerobics, Yoga and Pilates Cycling Skiing Golf, doubles tennis I recommend against running
13 Complications of Total Hip Replacement Infection Leg length discepancy Dislocation Blood Clots
14 Infection Rare, occurs in <1% of cases If it occurs, the total hip often has to be taken out Risk is reduced by: Antibiotics before and for 24 hours after surgery Sterile technique and clean hospital Antibiotic solution during surgery After surgery: Take antibiotics before any medical, dental or surgical procedure to protect your hip ( I recommend this for life) 2 grams of Amoxicillin 1 hour before Aggressively treat any infections in your body if they occur (ie: urinary tract, skin infections, mouth infections) so that your hip does not infected secondarily
15 Leg Length Discrepancy An arthritic hip typically shortens that leg because of the loss of cartilage thickness and deformity to the femoral head A total hip will typically lengthen the hip to its original length I use a computer program to plan your procedure to minimize the potential of over lengthening your leg My goal is symmetry when this is possible
16 Dislocation This can occur because with a total hip replacement the ball is smaller than your original ball (femoral head) Occurs in 2% of total hip replacements The following positions are avoided for 6-8 weeks after your hip is replaced to ensure stability: Hip Flexion more than 90 degrees Crossing your hip across the midline Internally rotating your hip After 6-8 weeks, 1 or 2 of these positions can be combined but all 3 at once should be avoided
17 Blood Clots 1-2% of total hip replacements I use Aspirin 325 mg 2 times per day for 4 weeks and leg pumps for 2 weeks after surgery to minimize this risk If you have a predisposition to blood clots or have had one in the past, please let me know as I may make some changes to your postoperative medications.
18 Hospitalization I perform my surgeries at Porter Adventist Hospital All are performed on Monday Patients go home or to a skilled nursing facility on Thursday or Friday This determination is made in the hospital based on how you do and what you have for your support at home
19 Things to do before your total hip Raised toilet seat Shower chair or bench Get your body weight to an ideal position 4-5 times your body weight is put through your hip with use Losing weight will improve the longevity of your hip and allow you to get around better immediately after surgery Take care of any dental procedures before If you have any loose or diseased teeth, please have these pulled or treated before your total hip this represents a significant risk factor for infection
20 What to expect Full weight bearing as you tolerate Crutches, cane or walker for 2-4 weeks as you need for balance and support Return to work in 3-6 weeks depending on you and your work (more manual or heavy work will take longer) Normal daily function by 2 months Full activity by 4-6 months
21 Physical Therapy Physical therapy after your total hip replacement is critical to get the full benefit of this procedure At home therapy is arranged in the hospital for 1-2 weeks until you are mobile enough for outpatient physical therapy Outpatient PT- my office can make recommendations for you if you do not already have a therapist This can last for 2-6 months depending on individual needs and goals
22 Post-opertive Followup 2 weeks 8 weeks 6 months 1 year and then every year after to check your x-ray and prosthesis
23 Thank you I hope this has allowed you to better understand your diagnosis and what total hip replacement could do for you. Total hip replacement remains the best and most predictable surgery we have in Orthopaedics Please feel free to call us if you have any further questions
