The aim of this study was to capture 12-month outcomes from a representative multicentre cohort of patients undergoing total ankle arthroplasty (TAA), describe the pattern of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) at 12 months, and identify predictors of these outcome measures. Patients listed for a primary TAA at 19 NHS hospitals between February 2016 and October 2017 were eligible. PROMs data were collected preoperatively and at six and 12 months including: Manchester-Oxford Foot and Ankle Questionnaire (MOXFQ (foot and ankle)) and the EuroQol five-dimension five-level questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L). Radiological pre- and postoperative data included Kellgren-Lawrence score and implant position measurement. This was supplemented by data from the National Joint Registry through record linkage to determine: American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade at index procedure; indication for surgery, index ankle previous fracture; tibial hind foot alignment; additional surgery at the time of TAA; and implant type. Multivariate regression models assessed outcomes, and the relationship between MOXFQ and EQ-5D-5L outcomes, with patient characteristics.Aims
Methods
The number of patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery of the
hip has increased significantly during the past decade. It has now
become an established technique for the treatment of many intra-
and extra-articular conditions affecting the hip. However, it has
a steep learning curve and is not without the risk of complications.
The purpose of this systematic review was to determine the prevalence
of complications during and following this procedure. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses
guidelines were used in designing this study. Two reviewers systematically
searched the literature for complications related to arthroscopy
of the hip. The research question and eligibility criteria were
established Aims
