Hip fractures are common, especially in older adults, and require timely medical and surgical intervention. These injuries can significantly impact a patient’s mobility, quality of life, and overall health. Hip fractures are a medical emergency, and delayed treatment can lead to severe consequences. Elderly patients are particularly vulnerable to complications from prolonged immobility, ...
Zealmax Ortho's Bipolar Hip Prosthesis Zealmax Ortho's Bipolar Hip Prosthesis is designed to address femoral neck fractures affecting the hip, providing an orthopedic solution to safeguard and stabilize the hip joint. This innovative approach involves the replacement of the damaged femoral head with a specialized artificial ...
Baseline Characteristics for 3D-DXA Subgroup in ACTIVExtend ABL = abaloparatide; ALN = alendronate; DXA = dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry; PBO = placebo; SD = standard deviation. 3.1 Areal BMD by 2D-DXA From month 0 to month 43, total hip and femoral neck aBMD for the 3D-DXA subpopulation increased in both treatment groups, with larger gains in ...
The bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine (LS), femoral neck, total hip (TH), and 1/3 radius was assessed using DXA, and trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD), cortical vBMD, integral vBMD, cortical thickness, and cortical surface BMD at TH were assessed using a 3D-DXA software and TBS at LS. Results: The mean adjusted BMD values at LS, the ...
Changes in DXA BMD with ABL, 80 μg, were significantly greater than with open-label teriparatide (TPTD), 20 μg, at cortical sites including total hip, femoral neck, and 1/3 distal radius. The purpose of this study was to better understand the relative effects of ABL and TPTD on cortical and cancellous compartments in the proximal femur. ...
DXA scans (Medix DR, Medilink, France) of the skeletally non-dominant proximal femur were analysed using 3D hip software (DMS Group, France) to derive femoral neck (FN) and total hip (TH) bone mineral content (BMC), volume, and volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) for total, trabecular and cortical bone compartments. ...
Testing included DXA- and pQCT-derived measures of bone mass and indices of bone strength and QUS-derived measures of bone quality of the dominant (D) and non-dominant (ND) upper (radius) and lower limbs (femoral neck, tibia, calcaneus). The present study examined those participants who completed the impact training (IT; n = 10) and resistance training (RT; n = ...
This paper tries to summarise the causes of failure of hip resurfacing and offers a few examples among our experience with this procedure.Keywords: hip resurfacing, failure causes, metal–on–metal bearings, femoral neck fracture, dislocation, arthroplasty, osteoarthritis, wear rate, hip biomechanics, bone stock, stability, resurfacing ...
