Hip Replacement Surgery Guide(English) - FAQ Answered by India's best Orthopa...Dr. Shekhar Srivastav
This document provides information about total hip replacement surgery from Dr. Shekhar Agarwal. It discusses what a hip replacement is, the types of artificial hip joints, who is a candidate for surgery, the benefits, and risks. It also covers topics like preparation for surgery, the hospital stay, rehabilitation, and long-term care of the hip implant. The goal is to guide patients on what to expect from hip replacement surgery.
Knee replacement surgery involves removing damaged parts of the knee joint and replacing them with artificial parts made of metal or plastic. During surgery, an incision is made in the front of the knee and the damaged surfaces are reshaped to hold the artificial joint in place. Recently, minimally invasive surgery using smaller incisions has become more common and may lead to less pain and faster recovery. After surgery, physical therapy is required to restore muscle strength and allow patients to resume most daily activities after about 6 weeks, though running and jumping will still be avoided. Modern knee replacements often last over 20 years.

Hip replacement surgery involves surgically removing the damaged hip joint and replacing it with an artificial joint made of metal and plastic components. It is usually an option after other treatments have failed to provide relief from pain caused by conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. While age is less of a factor now, overall health and ability to recover are important considerations for whether someone is a good candidate for replacement surgery. The procedure takes 1-2 hours and involves removing diseased bone and cartilage and replacing it with artificial femoral head and acetabulum components. Limited movement is allowed after surgery, and exercises like clam shells help strengthen muscles while avoiding twisting or back strain during recovery.
Normal joints allow movement between bones, with cartilage providing smooth friction-free movement and shock absorption. Joint replacement surgery is effective for relieving pain and correcting deformity from conditions like arthritis. It has long lasting benefits and improves quality of life. Post-operatively, patients undergo rehabilitation including exercises and restricted activities to promote healing and prevent issues like dislocation or infection while regaining function. Complications can potentially require revision surgery if the implant fails or loosens over time.

What is Hip Replacement ? Total hip replacement is a surgical procedure with remarkable success and patient satisfaction rate. It is performed on patients with arthritis of hip joint resulting from several causes like ageing wear and tear, avascular necrosis of the hip ball due to loss of blood supply, rheumatoid arthritis, post-injury arthritis or following hip fracture and/or surgery.
Hip replacement surgery involves removing damaged or diseased parts of the hip joint and replacing them with man-made prosthetics. The goals are to relieve pain, improve hip joint function, and enhance mobility. Candidates for hip replacement typically have osteoarthritis or other conditions like rheumatoid arthritis that cause hip joint damage and pain. Recovery takes several months and involves physical therapy to regain strength and range of motion. Complications can include dislocation, infection, or loosening of the artificial joint over time. Ongoing research aims to improve surgical methods and prosthetic device design.
Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty are performed using general anesthesia, however, this largely depends on the doctor and the needs, circumstances and preferences of the patient.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

2. Recovery from Surgical Spine Procedures
Spine surgery is usually a last resort for persistent pain. Surgery is never an option for the back
pain caused by muscular strain, which most of us will have at some point in our lives. Pain can
be caused by a variety of reasons, but surgery may be needed as a treatment for the following:
Spinal Stenosis – a
narrowing of the
space holding the
spinal cord caused
by development of
bone spurs
Bulging or
Ruptured Spinal
Discs
Scoliosis or
curvature of the
spine
Severe Arthritis,
Bone Spurs
Compression
Fractures of the
Spine
Tumors of the
Spine

If you're considering a major Orthopaedic
surgical procedure to relieve pain in your
back, knee, or hip, there's a lot to consider.
These procedures, while common, do come
with their own risks.While surgery can greatly
improve your function and help you get much
closer to living pain-free, the surgery itself
is only part of the solution. Understanding
what you can expect from your surgery
and recovery is extremely important.
3. Does your insurance company approve that this procedure
be performed on an outpatient basis?
Your overall health status
Do you have co-morbidities, such as diabetes, heart conditions,
high blood pressure that need careful monitoring during and
after surgery?
Have you had adverse reactions to anesthesia in the past?
Do you have support at home to care for you after surgery?
Time in
the Hospital
There are many different types of spine surgery to consider and
because each spine patient is unique, your recovery time can vary
in length. Almost all one level spine procedures are done as
outpatient surgeries which means you will go home the same day
as your surgery. Whether you qualify for outpatient surgery will
depend on a number of factors; such as:
If you qualify for outpatient surgery, special care will be taken in
the OR by the anesthesiologist to use shorter-acting anesthesia
so that you will awaken sufficiently to be discharged to go home
the same day.
Here are the average length of stays for the most commonly
performed spine procedures done by the SpineTeam at OSC:
More complex procedures, such as osteotomies or spinal
reconstruction surgeries, typically require more time in the
hospital.Your surgeon can provide you with more specific details
for your case.
Recovery
at Home: Bracing
2
After spine surgery, most patients will be sent home from the
hospital with either a neck brace or a lower back brace. These
braces provide support and protection for the surgical site and
sutures while the patient heals from their surgical procedure. It is
important that patients carefully follow physician instructions
about wearing the braces for the prescribed length of time.
Please note:Patients who must wear cervical collars are advised not to
drive while wearing their brace.If you are in a motor-vehicle accident
while wearing a cervical collar, you will be found at fault for the
accident, regardless of the circumstances surrounding the accident.
You will be fitted for your cervical or lumbar brace before
surgery and it is important that you take time to try it out at
home before the day of your surgery. Can you sleep comfortably
in your bed or will you need to sit in a recliner or prop yourself
on pillows for comfort? Does the brace rub or chafe your skin
or fit too loosely or tightly?These braces are expensive and
cannot be returned.Wearing them as directed by your physician
for many hours a day/night will be an important part of your
recovery. If you have problems wearing your brace before your
surgery, your surgical scheduler can work with you to help make
the brace more comfortable. Make sure that you can tolerate
yours well before you need it after surgery.
Exercise and Physical
Therapy Routines
Most patients are advised to spend about half of their time
resting and half of their time up and moving about to assist in
the recovery process. OSC Spine Specialists recommend walking
as a great way to gently start exercising after spine surgery. If you
are not taking pain medication, a stationary bicycle can also be used.
After your spine surgery, physical therapy may be recommended
for you. Your physician will determine if a PhysicalTherapist can
help you to recover more quickly. If so, a PhysicalTherapist will
visit with you either in the hospital or at home to help you
develop an exercise regimen that's tailored to your personal
needs. It's important to perform your prescribed physical
therapy exactly as your therapist recommends. Failure to do so
will lengthen your recovery time and may impede the proper
recovery process.
Your physical therapist will help you develop a pain management
regimen that's suitable for your needs.This may include ice
application. Learning how to perform everyday activities with altered
body movements can do a great deal to ease pain post-surgery.

The average recovery time in the hospital after knee replacement
surgery varies.Partial knee replacements are performed by OSC
surgeons on an outpatient basis.Total knee replacements can be
done on an outpatient basis or most often the patient will spend
Recovery fromTotal or Partial Knee
Replacement Surgery
Total knee replacement surgery, also known as total knee
arthroplasty, is a procedure in which the kneecap is replaced
and bones in the knee joint are resurfaced and capped with
plastic and metal parts. With advances in technology, it is now
possible to only replace the portion of the knee joint that is
severely damaged, such as the kneecap and the medial side of
the knee, instead of replacing the entire knee joint. Patients
with severe knee arthritis or a knee injury may be eligible for
this surgery, called partial knee arthroplasty or replacement.
During the procedure, the surgeon removes damaged surfaces of the knee and resurfaces
them with a prosthesis. The most common choice is a cemented prosthesis, which attaches to
the bone with surgical cement.An uncemented prosthesis attaches to the bone with a porous
surface that allows the bone to grow into the prosthesis. Surgeons may use a combination of
cemented and uncemented prostheses, depending on the case.
Patients may experience considerable pain following knee replacement surgery and should
be prepared for a longer recovery. After about 3 months, most patients should feel that they
are at or near a complete recovery. Patients report a much shorter recovery time with partial
knee replacement and a shorter duration of physical therapy.
1-2 nights in the hospital.The exception to the rule is if the patient
has Medicare and will be going to a rehab facility after hospital
discharge. In this case, the Government requires that they stay in
the hospital for 3 days.
You will be given elastic compression stockings in the hospital
to wear on your legs for four to six weeks after surgery. These
stocking help your blood to circulate and help to prevent Deep
VeinThrombosis.While in the hospital, you may also be a given
Sequential Compression Devices to wear on your calves.These
inflatable devices help to provide additional support to patients
while they recover from joint replacement surgery.

Recovery
at Home
Most of your recovery will take place at home.Your physical
therapist will come to your home for the first two to three weeks
after your surgery to help you learn how to use your new knee.
You will be given specific exercises to perform multiple times a
day that will aid your knee in regaining its range of motion and to
help it heal. How much motion you regain is largely up to you and
your determination to complete your exercises every day.
Physical Therapy
Evaluations
After the first 2-3 weeks, you will go to the physical therapist's
office for treatment for several more weeks. You will work
closely with your therapist to evaluate your progress and pinpoint
any particular activities that you're having trouble with. Let your
therapist know about your pain levels and ability to move. Expect
your physical therapist to ask you about popping or clicking noises
in the knee, swelling, and pain.
Your physical therapy appointments will gradually become less
frequent. After several months, your therapist will release you for
regular activity.You will be given instructions on how to proceed
with exercise to keep your knee in good shape.You will not need
to return to the physical therapist again unless you experience
further pain or problems.
Physical Therapy
Routines and Exercise
Your physical therapist will visit you in the hospital on the day of
your surgery to assess your individual case.The physical therapist
will get you out of bed and walking soon after your surgery.You
will use a walker as you take your first steps with your new knee.
Depending on your discharge date, you must demonstrate that
Recovery from Hip Replacement Surgery
Hip replacement is becoming increasingly common.
Minimally-invasive surgical techniques now make it
possible to enjoy a fast recovery and zero restrictions
after hip replacement. Direct anterior hip replacement
requires a short incision just three to four inches long at
the front of the hip.The surgeon does not have to cut or
detach any muscles or tendons, and patients typically
experience quick rehabilitation.The anterior approach has
become the method of choice for many surgeons, while
other surgeons have failed to embrace the approach.
you can walk up and down a few steps before you can leave the
hospital for home.You will also learn the right movements that will
help prevent blood clots immediately following surgery. Other
exercises will prevent the formation of scar tissue, strengthen your
knee muscles, and help the new joint heal.

Time in
the Hospital
The length of the hospital stay varies greatly from one patient
to the next depending on the case. Orthopaedic & Spine
Replacement Center (OSC) uses the direct anterior approach
to hip surgery, which is typically associated with a shorter stay in
the hospital.This method does not require the same restrictions
required with traditional hip replacements.
You will be given elastic compression stockings in the hospital
to wear on your legs for four to six weeks after surgery.
These stocking help your blood to circulate and help to prevent
DVTs.While in the hospital, you may also be a given Sequential
Compression Devices to wear on your calves. These inflatable
devices help to provide additional support to patients while they
recover from joint replacement surgery. Patients must be able to
walk up and down stairs before they are discharged from the
hospital.This shows that you will be able to safely move around
your home by the time you are discharged.
Recovery
at Home
Patients are able to return to normal activities as soon as
they feel they can do so safely. The biggest concern following a
hip replacement is patient safety.The minimally-invasive, direct
anterior approach to hip replacement does not put patients at
a risk of hip dislocation, however.
Physical
Therapy
Most patients find that they do not need physical therapy after
hip replacement surgery. In fact, they typically feel much better
than they did prior to the surgery. Patients often find that they
can engage in activities they haven't done in years.You may meet
with a physical therapist in the hospital that can show you
exercises to do at home, however, it is unlikely that you will need
ongoing physical therapy after this procedure.
Patients are sent home from the hospital with a cane and
walker to assist them during the early stages of recovery. You
should use these as often as you feel the need, but don't hesitate
to move away from them as soon as you feel comfortable. Patients
may walk with the cane and walker anywhere from a day or two
to several weeks. Patients will be restricted from driving for two
weeks or less.You should plan to return to work within four weeks.
