    Five years after hip replacement surgery, most patients maintained or returned to work. Pre-operative factors like age and walking ability, and post-operative factors like pain and satisfaction, significantly influenced working capacity.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Rehabilitation Medicine
    • Social Health Insurance

    Background:

    • Hip replacement surgery aims to restore function and improve quality of life.
    • Understanding factors influencing return to work and social welfare dependence post-surgery is crucial for patient outcomes and healthcare planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze working capacity and social welfare system dependence in patients 5 years after hip replacement.
    • To identify significant pre-operative and follow-up factors affecting employment status and welfare reliance.

    Main Methods:

    • A cohort of 387 patients undergoing hip replacement was studied.
    • Data collected included pre-operative status, post-operative follow-up at 5 years, employment status, and social welfare dependence.

    Main Results:

    • 92% of pre-operatively employed patients remained working post-surgery.
    • 70% of patients on sick leave pre-operatively returned to work.
    • Significant predictors of working capacity included age, hip disease etiology, walking ability, post-operative pain, and patient satisfaction.

    Conclusions:

    • Hip replacement surgery generally has a positive impact on patients' working capacity.
    • Pre-operative health status and patient-reported outcomes are key determinants of long-term employment and social welfare status.
