1 LOW PRIORITY PROCEDURE - Policy T18a Hip replacement Policy author: NHS Suffolk Public Health Team Policy start date: June 2007 (formally T9) Revision date: January 2011 Review date: January 2013 Referral Criteria for Hip Replacement The NHS Suffolk (Suffolk PCT) will only fund hip replacement for osteoarthritis when conservative measures have failed (listed below) and the following criteria have been met: - Intense to severe persistent pain (defined in table one) which leads to severe functional limitations (defined in table two), or - Minor or moderate functional limitation (defined in table two) affecting the patients quality of life despite 6 months of conservative measures* Exceptions include: a. Patients whose pain is so severe and/or mobility is compromised that they are in immediate danger of losing their independence and that joint replacement would relieve this. b. Patients in whom the destruction of their joint is of such severity that delaying surgical correction would increase the technical difficulties of the procedure. *Conservative measures: 1. Weight reduction. It is strongly advised to reduce BMI 35. A BMI >35 does not preclude referral but all reasonable attempts should be made to reduce the patients weight level suitable for surgery as a higher BMI increases complication rates, increases long-term failure of TKR, increased risks of bleeding and post-operative thrombo-embolism. 2. Oral/topical NSAIDS and paracetamol based analgesics (COX-2 Inhibitor of NSAIDS). Opiod analgesics can be used effectively if paracetamol or NSAIDS are ineffective or poorly tolerated. 3. Patient education such as elimination of damaging influence on hips, activity modification (avoid impact and excessive exercise), good shock-absorbing shoes and lifestyle adjustment.

Weight reduction. It is strongly advised to reduce BMI 35. A BMI >35 does not preclude referral but all reasonable attempts should be made to reduce the patients weight level suitable for surgery as a higher BMI increases complication rates, increases long-term failure of TKR, increased risks of bleeding and post-operative thrombo-embolism. 2. Oral/topical NSAIDS and paracetamol based analgesics (COX-2 Inhibitor of NSAIDS). Opiod analgesics can be used effectively if paracetamol or NSAIDS are ineffective or poorly tolerated. 3. Intra-articular corticosteroid injections should be considered as an adjunct to core treatment for the relief of moderate to severe pain 4. Patient education such as elimination of damaging influence on knees, activity modification (avoid impact and excessive exercise), good shock-absorbing shoes and lifestyle adjustment. 5. Physiotherapy as clinically appropriate, including exercise therapy as well as physical measures such as ultrasound, acupuncture, traction, application of heat/cold, muscle stimulation, electrotherapy, stretching/walking. 6. Orthosis. Advice on walking aids, home adaptations and general counselling as regards to the potential benefits of joint replacement. Rationale behind the policy decision Guidance from NICE, musculoskeletal services framework from the Department of Health; GP training Network and the National Institute of Health Consensus panel suggests 1-4 :
3 - Common MSK pain including knee pain ideally should be managed in primary care. - Primary care practitioners need direct access to orthosis, therapy, dietetics and health promotion services. - Primary care management should seek to maximize the benefits of surgery and minimize complications when surgery is necessary. The development and assessment of guidelines as above for primary care physicians and others make a rapid assessment of the severity and impact of knee OA 4. A study 5 followed up morbidly obese post-op total knee replacements of a 5-year period compared to a control group and found the morbidly obese to have greater earlier complication rates and a notably 5-year survival of their knee replacement with loosening of the tibial component. Another study 5 partitioned the obesity groups to and 35+; these patients had undergone a total knee replacement and it was shown that wound infection was more likely in the35+ group. Noted that for every 1kg/mg increase in BMI; this increases the risk of infection by 8% 15. There is also evidence in the published reports to support a correlation between obesity and complications following hip replacement surgery. Obesity has been found to be a specific risk factor for joint infection after total hip replacement 16, 17, 18. A meta-analysis of 16 controlled trials 9 found individual exercise and self-management had a moderate but clinically significant psychological effect and positive contribution to the patient s emotional well being. A Cochrane review 19 found that patients wearing an orthosis were found to have significantly less pain and better function than the control group. Studies have shown manual therapy, individualised or group therapy to reduce pain and improve function significantly 3, 20,21. Intra-articular injections have been shown to significantly reduce pain 2-3 weeks after injections. According to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, intra-articular injections are recommended for no more than short term use only 22. An Oxford hip/knee score of 29 indicates moderate to severe hip/knee arthritis 23. References 1. NICE. Primary care referral guidelines for common conditions 2003; London 2.
