Is revision as good as primary hip replacement?

Abstract: When reviewed after four years there was no difference in the pain score for either group (p = 0.89), but that for function had deteriorated significantly. This was associated with revision surgery (p = 0.018) and a low preoperative QoL score (p = 0.004).We conclude that both primary and revision operations give a significant improvement in the QoL but function after revision may be less durable than after a primary arthroplasty.

“…We further observed a change in QOL from before THA to after THA. The magnitude of change of QOL achieved after conversion in our study cohort was halfway between the values obtained by Robinson et al [60] after PTHA and after revision THA. In our study cohort, after conversion surgery scores in physical domains were higher than those reported by Richards and Duncan [57] and van Biezen et al [74].…”

“…The RIM [61] was used to assess QOL of the patients. The RIM ( Table 2 allows the HHS to be translated directly into the RIM categories to derive QOL scores (from À1.486 indicating a state worse than death to 1.000 indicating complete normality) ( Table 3) [60]. To calculate changes in QOL between before and after surgery, information was obtained by reprocessing the preoperative collected data and from the questionnaires completed by patients at the followup.…”

“…Sensitivity to change is an important property of an outcome assessment instrument, 12 particularly when, as in the case of RHR, improvement may be marginal. [13][14][15][16] Thirdly, we examined the sensitivity to change of both instruments among subgroups characterised by the number of previous RHRs which had been undertaken.…”

“…After a revision, it can be expected that the patients will be less mobile than after a primary replacement. Thus, a lower wear rate might be expected (Robinson et al 1999). On the other hand, bone or cement debris from the revision, scratches on the femoral head in the case of isolated cup revision with non-modular femoral implants, and the use of 32-mm heads might increase the wear rate of revision implants.…”
