Optimizing Perioperative Care for Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty Patients

Y. den Hartog

In orthopedic surgery, primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a very commonly performed surgery worldwide. It is a good option for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis of the hip if conservative treatment fails to alleviate pain and limitations. There is general agreement about this effectiveness of the surgical procedure. Prostheses have also improved in recent years. However, the challenge remains to optimize perioperative care for patients undergoing primary THA. The aim of this thesis was to investigate how perioperative care for primary THA patients could be optimized. Three main aspects of the perioperative procedure were therefore studied: length of hospital stay (LOS), surgical procedure, and pain management.
