A clinical registry to monitor outcomes of shoulder, hip and knee pathology

Prospective collection of outcomes data for orthopaedic surgeies performed at a public hospital


Sponsor

QEII Jubilee Hospital

Enrollment

2,500 participants

Start Date

Jul 28, 2017

Study Type

Observational

Conditions

Summary

To collect patient outcome data into a database that allows research to be generated. This occurs by identifying trends, systematically recognising unexpected outcomes from surgical techniques and allowing hypothesis generation to be tested in a retrospective manner.


Eligibility

Sex: Both males and femalesMin Age: 16 Yearss

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This is a research registry — not a treatment trial — that collects information about patient outcomes after shoulder, hip, and knee treatment. Patients treated by participating orthopaedic surgeons at QEII Jubilee Hospital are invited to have their outcomes tracked over time. This helps researchers identify which treatments work best, spot unexpected results, and build evidence for better care. Participation mainly involves completing questionnaires about your symptoms, function, and quality of life. You may be eligible if: - You are 16 years of age or older - You have been diagnosed with a shoulder, hip, or knee condition by a participating orthopaedic surgeon - You are receiving treatment as a public patient at QEII Jubilee Hospital - You are willing to have your health data collected for research You may NOT be eligible if: - You have a clinically diagnosed mental or neurological condition (such as schizophrenia or dementia) that prevents you from completing questionnaires - You do not consent to the use of your data for research Talk to your doctor about whether this trial might be right for you.

This is a simplified summary. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.

Patients presenting with pathologies of the shoulder, hip or knee and treated by specialist orthopaedic surgeons. Follow-up protocols will be unchanged from the surgeons usual clinical practice for the procedures being monitored. That is, no special treatment will be assigned to the participating patient. At the time of surgery, operative details will be added to the database. The database allows the extraction of patient information that allows research to be conducted. Baseline clinical measurements and outcomes scores (identified in this trial) will be collected for up to five years. 1. Patients diagnosed with either a recent shoulder dislocation or clinically defined glenohumeral instability: Treated with non-operative management or surgical stabilisation. 2. Patients diagnosed with rotator cuff pathology (tendinopathy; tear): Treated with non-operative management or surgical repair. 3. Patients diagnosed with glenohumeral arthritis of any aetiology: Treated with non-operative management, arthroscopic surgery or total shoulder arthroplasty. 4. Patients diagnosed with hip arthritis of any aetiology: Treated surgically (total joint arthroplasty). 5. Patients diagnosed with knee arthritis of any aetiology: Treated surgically (total joint arthroplasty). 6. Patients diagnosed with either a recent ACL Rupture or clinically defined knee instability: Treated with surgical reconstruction. 7. Patients diagnosed with arthritis primarily affecting one compartment (medial or lateral) with no patellofemoral involvement: Treated with osteotomy.
