ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To compare the functional outcome of cemented total hip with hybrid total hip arthroplasty in terms of mean change inpain score.

STUDY DESIGN: A Randomized controlled study.

PLACE AND DURATION: At Benazir Bhutto Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan for a duration of 06 months from 2nd March 2015 to 1st August 2015.

METHODOLOGY: Study patients who had osteoarthritis hip (primary and secondary) under-going arthroplasty were divided intogroups, A and B. Group A underwent hybrid total hip while cemented total hip for group B patients. Post-operative pain scoring wasdone in each group with visual analog pain scale (VAS) at 4, 8 and 12 weeks interval to find the improvement after arthroplasty in termsof pain relief and a comparison was done between two groups.

RESULTS: Group A (62.67±10.48) patients had a significantly lower mean pain score than group B (68.33±7.92) at 8th (p=0.022) and 12^thweek (p=0.005) follow-up.

CONCLUSION: Functional outcome of hybrid total hip is better as compared to cemented total hip in terms of mean change in painscore.
