Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a hip arthroplasty for chronic pain, caused by a unilateral primary Coxartrhrose, regarding the cognitive performance. It is based on the hypothesis that the combination of chronic pain along with relative immobilization causes impairment of cognitive performance. The total hip replacement reduces pain, increases the mobility level and finally improves the cognitive performance.

Conditions

  • Osteoarthritis, Hip

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

everyday activity

To objectively quantify the everyday activity, there are a variety of instruments, without a currently gold standard. Therefore, in addition the investigators use objectified measurement parameters with the aid of a pedometer (GARMIN vivofit) on every three measuring time points (before surgery, 3 months after surgery, 6 months after surgery).

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

cognitive performance

Standardized neuropsychological assessment methods are used to assess the cognitive performance. To assess the degree of mobility, health status and the physical activity standardized questionnaires are used.
