2. Question
Question 2
Physiotherapy can help by;
Hint
Physiotherapy often helps to alleviate symptoms, by increasing range of motion, strengthening the supporting muscles around the hip, treating the soft tissues locally with various techniques, and improving proprioception of the leg. It can also help alleviate the low back pain that is associated with osteoarthritis of the hip.

3. Question
Question 3
Injections can;
Hint
Intra-articular injections of the hip can provide short-term relief for sufferers. This is usually performed under general anaesthesia and x-ray guidance.
A combination of local anaesthetic and corticosteroid is commonly used. This does not cure the osteoarthritis or reverse the cartilage damage, but does alleviate pain. However, it is associated with risk of infection, neurovascular injury, bruising, and transient numbness.
The injection can be repeated, although it is generally felt that it should not be repeated more than twice, due to the potentially toxic effect of the corticosteroid on any remaining cartilage and normal soft tissue.

Question 4 of 6
4. Question
Question 4
In THR surgery;
Hint
Total hip replacement (THR) is the definitive treatment for osteoarthritis of the hip. It was performed first in 1954, and since then has evolved into one of the most successful operations in orthopedic surgery. The ball and socket joint is replaced by non-biological materials, usually metal alloy and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, which is a very resilient hard plastic.
It is also possible to use ceramic alloys, which allow for better lubrication, and are more hard-wearing.

Question 6
The following materials are commonly used;
Hint
The ball and socket joint is replaced by non-biological materials, usually metal alloy and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, which is a very resilient hard plastic.
It is also possible to use ceramic alloys, which allow for better lubrication, and are more hard-wearing. There are various combinations that can be employed, depending on patient characteristics and surgeon preference.
- Metal-on-polyethylene
- Metal-on-metal
- Ceramic-on-ceramic
- Ceramic-on-polyethylene
