Sammanfattning
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in level of physical activity between
patients who underwent revision after surgery with total hip arthroplasty and those who did not.
Secondary purposes were to study if level of physical activity, frequency of physical activity, body mass
index, sex or age could predict the risk of revision an to find out if patients were sufficiently active.
Methods: The patients who had surgery with total hip arthroplasty at any time and required a revision
were identified (n ¼ 27) and matched with controls. The primary outcome measure was the University
of California Los Angeles activity scale. Secondary outcome measures were risk prediction including
body mass index, age, year between total hip arthroplasty and revision, frequency of physical activity,
and level of physical activity.
Results and conclusions: There were no statistical significant differences for University of California
Los Angeles activity scale score between samples (p ¼ .914). 44% Of the participants in the revision
group and 33% in the control group were insufficiently active. Level or frequency of physical activity
did not increase the risk of revision (OR 0.96 and 0.46), nor did body mass index, age or sex (OR 1.00,
0.98 and 1.00).
