Forskningsområde

Primære forskningsområder er klinisk og epidemiologisk forskning indenfor kirurgisk behandling af osteoartrose (slidgigt) i knæ og hofter. Forskningen i den kirurgiske behandling af slidgigt i knæ og hofter er fokuseret mod spørgsmål vedrørende patientrapporterede forventninger, funktion og livskvalitet; optimering af indlæggelsesforløbene og den langsigtede patientbehandling; optimering af de perioperative og operative tiltag, herunder undersøgelser af smertebehandling, blodtab, led bevægelighed, samt protesens stilling, design, og materiale. 

Den kliniske forskning baserer sig på randomiserede studier til afklaring af kliniske spørgsmål vedrørende den bedste behandling samt aflivning af de dogmer der stadig eksisterer i behandlingsrepertoiret.
