Musculoskeletal disorder research’

NWORTH Seminar
May 2012
Outline
• WCAT Trainee Trauma and Orthopaedics
• PhD commenced August 2009
• Work supported by BCUHB Small Grants
Scheme
The Evidence
• THR Indications 1
– Pain
– Loss of mobility i.e. function
• Functional limitations that persist after THR 2
– Reduced muscle strength and postural stability
– Reduced walking speed
– Reduced stair climbing ability

Brander VA et al. Clin Orthop 1997;Dec(345):67-78.
The Evidence
Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) physical
function score over time after total joint replacement between low and high baseline
function groups
Fortin et al. Arthritis Rheum 2002; 46 (12): 3327-3330
The Evidence
• Effects of poor function
– At 2 years after THR patients with low function 5x
more likely to require assistance for activities of
daily living (ADLs) than patients with high function 1

Aims of study
To assess early home-based progressive resistance
training (PRT) after total hip replacement (THR)
?improves muscle strength and patient
function
vs.
‘routine’ physiotherapy
But what is routine physiotherapy after ‘THR’
• Ethics committee approval
• Focus Group
– 4 physiotherapists; minimum 5 years experience
– Pre-, Post-operative and continuing rehabilitation
themes discussed
• Questionnaire development
• Online survey of physiotherapists in the UK
– CSP
– National Joint Registry
European College of Sports Science (ECSS) Annual Congress, Liverpool, July 2011
‘Routine’ Physiotherapy
• Progressive resistance training
– 73% aware of it
prescribed by only 32%
• 74% of respondents did not refer patients for
further treatment on discharge
• Resubmitted to ‘Physiotherapy’ April 2012

Design
• Prospective single blinded RCT.
Ethical approval Jan 2010
• Stratification with age + gender
• Pilot Study
• NWORTH input
1 outcomes
• Maximal voluntary contraction of quadriceps
muscle
• Objective measures of physical function
– Timed up and go
– 6 minute walk
– Gait speed
– Stair climbing performance
– Sit to stand score
Objective measures
6 minute walk test
(6MWT)

Gait speed (GS)

performance
(SCP)
Sample size (n=10 per group)
• Maximal voluntary force in quadriceps muscle
• 10% improvement with exercise relative to
controls
• 80% power; alpha 0.05
• n=50 patients to recruit

So what?
• ? Change locus of control to influence postoperative outcome
• Assess influence of control cognitions on

So what?
• rWOMAC PF better than OHS as a measure of
ADLs and objectively measured physical
disability
• Use of OHS as measure of impairment not
appropriate
So far…
• Mental Health- Distress and Risk Assessment
Method (DRAM)
