Procedure Information |
Why might I need a hip replacement? Over time, the surfaces on the hip joint can start to wear. This can be caused by osteoarthritis or a previous injury to the hip. Osteoarthritis is painful as joints become stiff and inflamed when the smooth lining between the joints gets damaged or wears away. Without the protection of this lining, the rough surfaces of your bones rub together as you move, causing the pain that is all too common to sufferers. Simple, everyday things like going for a walk or even getting dressed become difficult. There’s no cure for osteoarthritis and it can get worse with time. However, joints can be replaced successfully, improving mobility and reducing pain. What happens during hip replacement? A variety of anaesthetic techniques can be used. Prior to your operation the anaesthetist will discuss these options with you Your surgeon’s choice of prosthesis will be based on several factors such as your age, your level of activity and your current condition. If you have concerns be sure and ask your surgeon about his prosthesis choice and the reasons behind it Both cemented and uncemented replacements are used at Nuffield Health Hospitals Your surgical wound will be closed with stitches, staples or steri-strips. |
