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. |

I was an inpatient for surgery and the overall temperature in the ward was incredibly hot due to good weather outside, all in patient rooms and areas need individual air conditioning units to control the temperature as even a bar of chocolate in my bedside melted, it was particularly hot for all the nursing staff working too. Fly screens at the bedroom windows would stop all the insects from entering the rooms attracted by any night lights. The mobile CT and MRI scanner lorries parked outside were continuously noisy throughout the night making whirring noises which echoed around the car park. All staff I met were attentive, caring and extremely helpful making my stay a really positive experience. |

I have just had a partial thyroid removal. the whole experience from initial consultation to the actual surgery involved a number of staff. from the lady who emptied the bin to the surgeon who carried out rhe procedure was exceptional. nothing was too much trouble. it would be difficult to pick out one member because they were all exceptional. I would have no hesitation of returning to Nuffield should the need arise. |
