Registry for fast-track hip and knee replacement surgeries
The Fast-track Centre for Hip and Knee Replacement Prospective Database on Preoperative Patientcharacteristics and Postoperative Complications
This study collects information from patients getting fast-track hip and knee replacements to see how well they recover and to identify those who might be at higher risk for complications.

What this trial studies
This observational registry collects preoperative patient characteristics and postoperative complications for patients undergoing fast-track hip and knee replacement surgeries across eight specialized arthroplasty departments in Denmark. It includes detailed data on prescribed medications, lab results, and patient-reported outcomes, with follow-up managed by dedicated nurses. A machine-learning algorithm is employed to identify high-risk patients based on preoperative data, enhancing the understanding of postoperative morbidity and recovery. The registry aims to standardize information and improve outcomes within a socialized healthcare system.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults over 18 years old undergoing elective non-malignant hip or knee replacement surgeries.
Not a fit: Patients unwilling to provide informed consent or those with malignancies will not benefit from this registry.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could lead to improved patient outcomes and tailored care for those undergoing hip and knee replacements.
How similar studies have performed: Similar studies have shown success in improving surgical outcomes through detailed registries and data analysis, making this approach promising.
