Background and purpose — In total hip replacements, stem design may affect the occurrence of periprosthetic femoral fracture. We studied risk factors for fractures around and distal to the 2 most used cemented femoral stems in Sweden.

Conditional Generative Data Augmentation for Clinical Audio Datasets [PDF]
In this work, we propose a novel data augmentation method for clinical audio datasets based on a conditional Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network with Gradient Penalty (cWGAN-GP), operating on log-mel spectrograms. To validate our method, we created a clinical audio dataset which was recorded in a real-world operating room during Total Hip ...

How do EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-5L compare in a Swedish total hip replacement population?
Background and purpose — To better detect small changes in postoperative outcome following total hip replacement (THR), the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR) has decided to change from the EQ-5D-3L (3L) to the EQ-5D-5L (5L).

Range of Motion Sensors for Monitoring Recovery of Total Knee Arthroplasty [PDF]
A low-cost, accurate device to measure and record knee range of motion (ROM) is of the essential need to improve confidence in at-home rehabilitation. It is to reduce hospital stay duration and overall medical cost after Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) procedures.

Abstract Although the sternoclavicular joint shares structural similarities with the knee and hip joints as a diarthrodial joint, its biomechanics differ significantly due to its non‐weight‐bearing nature. Nevertheless, it is subject to considerable loading, leading to increased susceptibility to osteoarthritis, a prevalent condition characterized by ...

Relative survival following hemi-and total hip arthroplasty for hip fractures in Sweden
Background Hip fractures are a common problem in the ageing population. Hip arthroplasty is the common treatment option for displaced intracapsular neck of femur fractures.

Background:. Previous studies have suggested that the probability function of 1 minus the Kaplan-Meier survivorship overestimates revision rates of implants and that patient death should be included in estimates as a competing risk factor.

Recent updates for biomaterials used in total hip arthroplasty
BackgroundTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) is probably one of the most successful surgical interventions performed in medicine. Through the revolution of hip arthroplasty by principles of low friction arthroplasty was introduced by Sir John Charnley in 1960s.
