In January 2017, we launched a new version of the Register, including an update of the content in order to Sweden describe more optimally the hip arthroplasty operations that 18000 are currently being performed. Moving the Register to a new IT platform opened up a whole range of benefits, including 16000 improved validation of input data and a simpler and quicker means of presenting data from the Register. The move to the 14000 new IT platform has meant that all programming had to be 12000 redone completely in order to produce a full set of tables and graphs for the Annual Report. 10000 The Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register is a national Counts 8000 quality register, the purpose of which is to improve care provision for patients who undergo hip arthroplasty 6000 in Sweden. The aim is to register all hip arthroplasties 4000 that have taken place, both in public and private sector establishments, and regardless of the condition that led 2000 to the operation. The Register was set up in 1979, and this report covers procedures carried out up through to 0 Copyright © 2018 Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register December 31, 2017, making this the 39th operating year 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 for the Register. Year of operation Figure 1.1. Annual production Production increased during 2017 (Figure 1.1 and 1.2) and for the first time more than 18,000 primary total hip arthroplasties were carried out. To be exact, 18,148 total hip arthroplasties Illustration were performed, equivalent to 179 procedures per 100,000 The illustration for this year’s report illustrates the various inhabitants. A total of 4,029 primary hemiarthroplasties were paths taken by patients who have undergone hip arthroplasty carried out, which was down slightly on the figure for the pre- after primary hip arthroplasty. Previously, we focused on in- vious year, and overall 6,033 hip arthroplasties were carried dividual hip operations, but we know that a large proportion out due to acute hip fracture or sequela following a fracture. A of patients undergo an operation on the other hip as well as total of 2,588 reoperations were registered. reoperations. In the thesis “Longitudinal outcomes following total hip replacement”, Peter Cnudde has made use of what is termed a multistate analysis to describe the probability of Validation process and various hip-related events. A summary of the thesis, which also completeness analyses trends within Swedish hip arthroplasty, is presented in the report. The Register data is subject to continuous validation and quality control. We use a range of methods to assure and maintain a high level of data quality and to improve areas in which there In-depth analyses and are shortcomings. A key feature of the validation process is the annual completeness analysis, which is carried out through improvement work collaboration with the National Board of Health and Welfare As usual, this year’s report contains a range of in-depth Patient Register. The analysis covers all primary procedures, analyses. In the primary prosthesis chapter there is an in-depth divided into total arthroplasties and hemiarthroplasties. A new analysis of the frequently debated issue of choice of fixation. development this year is a completeness analysis of revisions. The conclusion that can be drawn with the aid of our register As it is often well into the autumn before the Patient Register data is that in the majority of cases individuals over the age data for the preceding year is available, we have published a of 75 ought to be operated on with all cemented fixation.

We 96% of all hemiarthroplasties, and 93% of all revisions were can also report that new prostheses introduced onto the Swedish registered in the Hip Arthroplasty Register. In the Register market, and which have been used to such an extent that a follow-up routine using patient-reported outcomes – the register analysis is meaningful, have revealed good results. The PROM programme (patient-reported outcome measures) – report also contains a comparison between a dual-mobility the response rate for patients with osteoarthritis who under- cup and a conventional cup, although the results are difficult went surgery in 2016 was 83% preoperatively, and 85% at the to interpret as it is probably not possible to compensate fully one-year follow-up. for patient selection. Based on information contained in the SWEDISH HIP ARTHROPLASTY REGISTER 2017 7 Register, however, we are unable to demonstrate any obvious advantages of using a dual-mobility cup. As part of a thesis 24000 project, Georgios Chatziagorou compared the two most common cemented stems used in Sweden in terms of reoperation 20000 due to a periprosthetic fracture. The analysis indicates that the Lubinus stem carries a lower risk of a periprosthetic fracture 16000 compared with the Exeter stem, even when Vancouver type C fractures are included. 12000 The Hip Arthroplasty Register is one of the world’s most Counts extensive reoperation databases, covering over 80,000 oper- 8000 ations. It is a valuable means of gaining an understanding of which methods and implants offer the best results. Yosef Tyson, a PhD student in Uppsala, has compared cemented and 4000 uncemented stem revision with first-time revision. Even if an increase in the use of uncemented fixation can be noted, the 0 results show that revision with a cemented stem still ought to Copyright © 2018 Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register be considered an attractive first-choice option. 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 Year of operation Per Jolbäck, a PhD student in Gothenburg, has examined the link between annual volume on the surgeon level, and the in- Primary THR Revision cidence of adverse events within 90 days following a primary Primary Hemi Reoperation (other open procedure) total hip arthroplasty.
