Abstract
Purpose: Rising costs in healthcare for total hip arthroplasty (THA) mean that new solutions must be considered, such as the use of single-use ancillaries (SUA). The goal of this study was to assess the accuracy of 2D templating in primary THA for the use of reduced-size SUA. Our hypothesis was that the accuracy of 2D templating in primary THA would be higher than 95%, give or take two sizes.
Method: This single-centre prospective study included all primary THAs performed over two years. Templating was carried out using 2D templating on anteroposterior pelvic X-rays. The template sizes were compared to the implant sizes. The primary endpoint was the rate of coincidence between digitally templated estimates and the actual implant sizes. The secondary endpoint was the difference of accuracy based on patient parameters.
Results: We analysed 512 cases of THA. Accuracy within two sizes was 96.9% for acetabular implants and 98.5% for femoral implants. Accuracy was below the 95% threshold only in patients under 55 and over 85 years old. A BMI above 30.0 kg/m2 significantly reduced accuracy but did not fall below the 95% threshold. The operated hip, the type of implant, and the operative indication did not significantly influence templating accuracy.
Conclusion: Using reduced-size SUA with five rasps and five reamers depending on template sizes means that THA can be performed in more than 95% of cases allowing the use of compact single use ancillaries.
期刊介绍:
International Orthopaedics, the Official Journal of the Société Internationale de Chirurgie Orthopédique et de Traumatologie (SICOT) , publishes original papers from all over the world. The articles deal with clinical orthopaedic surgery or basic research directly connected with orthopaedic surgery. International Orthopaedics will also link all the members of SICOT by means of an insert that will be concerned with SICOT matters.
Finally, it is expected that news and information regarding all aspects of orthopaedic surgery, including meetings, panels, instructional courses, etc. will be brought to the attention of the readers.
Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been approved by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.
Reports of animal experiments must state that the "Principles of laboratory animal care" (NIH publication No. 85-23, revised 1985) were followed, as well as specific national laws (e.g. the current version of the German Law on the Protection of Animals) where applicable.
The editors reserve the right to reject manuscripts that do not comply with the above-mentioned requirements. The author will be held responsible for false statements or for failure to fulfil the above-mentioned requirements.
