Abstract
OBJECTIVE
Introduction: Hip osteoarthritis is a disabling disease which become substantial health-related, social, and economic issue. The aim: To assess short term quality of life in male population with hip ostheoarthritis, after total hip arthroplasty.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Material and methods: 118 male patients were included in the study, age range from 31 to 79 year-old, who underwent total hip arthroplasty. Patients quality of life was assessed using questioners: abbreviated version of WHOQoL-BREF, as well as EQ-5D-5L, and SF-36 scale. Patients condition was investigated before surgery, 6 weeks and 6 months after the surgery.
RESULTS
Results: The results from WHOQoL-BREF questionnaire demonstrated a statistically significant improvement of quality of life after the surgery - 6 weeks after the procedure by 4% and 21% (p<0.001), after 6 months by 13% and 42% (p<0.001), respectively. The most significant improvement was found in the somatic domain - by 5% after 6 weeks, and by 6% after 6 months (p<0.001). The quality of life according to the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire revealed statistically significant improvement after 6 weeks, by 18-24% (p<0.001), after 6 months by 41-48% (p<0.001). Substantial improvement was achieved in reducing pain and improving mobility. SF-36 questionnaire showed statistically significant improvement after 6 months from the surgery in both physical (by 44%), and mental condition (by 54%) (p<0.001).
CONCLUSION
Conclusions: Improvement of the quality of life - mainly less severe pain and better mobility after total hip arthroplasty in the investigated group of men was proven in 6 weeks after the procedure, while the further progress was more noticeable 6 months after the procedure.
