“…They concluded if patient were off work due to hip pain then total hip replacement would facilitate a return to work. 26 In our group, none of the patients that were unemployed before the operation returned to work. However, Mobasheri et al 26 also reported a reduced rate of re-employment in patients who had been unemployed for more than 1 year before operation.…”

INTRODUCTION The effect of primary total knee replacement on the employment status of 56 patients under 60 years of age was examined at a mean follow-up of 64 months. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 56 primary total knee replacements performed on patients under the age of 60 years by two surgeons between 1996 and 2003 were retrospectively assessed by postal questionnaire. Patients were selected from databases held at Holly House and Newham Hospital NHS Trust. RESULTS Overall, 97.5% of patients who were employed before their operation, returned to their previous work. However, in patients not working prior to total knee replacement none were employed after their operation. CONCLUSIONS Total knee replacement may be a valuable tool to help some patients to continue working but may not affect patients who are already unemployed.

“…The World Health Organization estimates that 10% of the world's population, over 60 years of age, with osteoarthritis, 80% of the population has movement restriction and 25% have functional limitations in day-to-day activities. This surgery may also be indicated in other situations, such as femoral fracture, common in the elderly, as well as in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and avascular necrosis [3].…”

Objective: Describe the clinical and epidemiological profile of patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty by analyzing the correlations between gender and indication of surgery and postoperative complications. Methods:Cross-sectional study in retrospective approach of the medical records of patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty in a private Hospital in Salvador, Bahia in 2013 and 2014.Results: 66, 3% of patients are women, aged between 71 and 80 years (31, 2%), systemic arterial hypertension patients (63, 9%), whose major indication occurred coxarthrosis (48, 2%) followed by hip fracture (39, 8%); mostly by falling from height (66, 7%). Among the complications, anemia prevailed (53%) and death occurred in only 2, 4%. By correlating sex with indication of arthroplasty, hip fracture was only statistically significant in women (p=0.004); in complications, anemia (p=0.024) and urinary tract infection (p=0.025) had statistically significance in women and in men genitourinary changes (p<0.001). Conclusions:Patients undergoing hip arthroplasty are elderly, female, hypertensive, most of whose procedures ran from coxarthrosis or hip fracture. Among the complications prevailed anemia, genitourinary, cardiovascular and digestive changes. Hip fracture, anemia and urinary tract infection are significantly more prevalent in females, while the genitourinary changes are significant in males.

StreszczenieWstęp: Celem pracy była ocena statusu zawodowego osób po całkowitej endoprotezoplastyce stawu biodrowego w okresie 2-3 lat od zabiegu oraz analiza wpływu takich czynników, jak wiek, płeć, BMI (body mass index -wskaźnik masy ciała), sprawność funkcjonalna i samoocena stanu zdrowia na utrzymanie aktywności zawodowej. Materiał i metody: W badaniu wzięło udział 107 osób, w tym 56 kobiet i 51 mężczyzn. Średni wiek badanych wynosił 55,1 roku. Zastosowano wystandaryzowany autorski kwestionariusz, który zawierał pytania dotyczące danych osobowych i klinicznych, aktywności zawodowej oraz samooceny stanu zdrowia. Dokonano pomiaru masy ciała i wzrostu i wyliczono wskaźnik BMI. Wykorzystano także 100-punktową skalę Harrisa (Harris Hip Score) do oceny sprawności funkcjonalnej badanych. Wyniki: Po zabiegu endoprotezoplastyki stawu biodrowego ok. 60% pacjentów nie było aktywnych zawodowo -świadczenia rentowe pobierały 44 (41,1%) osoby, świadczenia emerytalne -18 (16,8%) osób, a zasiłek dla bezrobotnych -2 (1,9%) osoby. Nikt z badanych niepracujących przed zabiegiem (z powodu renty) nie podjął pracy po zabiegu. Płeć badanych nie miała istotnego statystycznie wpływu na podjęcie aktywności zawodowej po zabiegu, podobnie jak rodzaj wykonywanej pracy i BMI. Stwierdzono natomiast statystycznie istotne zależności między podejmowaniem aktywności zawodowej po zabiegu a poziomem sprawności funkcjonalnej ocenianej skalą Harrisa (p = 0,0350) i samooceną stanu zdrowia (p = 0,0057). Wnioski: Ponad połowa badanych nie podjęła pracy po całkowitej endoprotezoplastyce biodra w okresie 2-3 lat od zabiegu. W grupie osób pracujących umysłowo przed zabiegiem do pracy powróciło stosunkowo najwięcej osób spośród wszystkich badanych. Istotny wpływ na powrót do pracy miały wiek, sprawność funkcjonalna i samoocena stanu zdrowia. Med.

Material and Methods: In the research 107 people (56 women and 51 men) participated. The average age of the subject's was 55.1 years. A standardized author's survey questionnaire, including questions about personal and clinical data, occupational activity and self-assessment of health status, was applied. The body mass and height were measured and the BMI index was calculated. The 100 points Harris Hip Score (HHS) was used to assess the functional state in the respondents. Results: After the operation about 60% of the patients were not occupationally active; 44 (41.1%) respondents received the state health benefit, 18 (16.8%) respondents were eligible for pension benefit, and 2 (1.9%) respondents were unemployed with benefit. No one unemployed befor...

The Effect of Total Hip Replacement on the Employment Status of Patients Under the Age of 60 Years

Abstract: Our study demonstrates that total hip replacement is effective in keeping patients under the age of 60 years employed. It is also effective in allowing those already off work due to hip pain to return to work, although there is a much greater delay.
