Detection of Immune Changes as a Result of Surgical Trauma in Human Subject
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Surgical trauma triggers a massive inflammatory response. Over time, both the innate and adaptive branches of the immune system are affected by surgical trauma. The purpose of this study to characterize the cellular and molecular mechanisms immune response to surgical trauma. Additionally, detailed information about patients' recovery profile will be recorded over a period of 6 weeks, with the eventual goal of linking immune responses to recovery profiles.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Mass cytometry of immune signaling events [Blood samples for mass cytometry will be drawn at baseline, 1 hour post-op, 24 hours post-op, 3 days post-op, and 6 weeks post-op.]
The primary molecular outcome is the fold change in phosphorylation of signaling proteins.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Surgical Recovery Scale (SRS) [Data will be collected at baseline, daily through the hospitalization, and every 3 days for 6 weeks.]
The surgical recovery scale is a validated questionnaire yielding a numerical score and assessing postoperative recovery.
- Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) [Data will be collected at baseline, daily through the hospitalization, and every 3 days for 6 weeks.]
Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index is a validated questionnaires yielding a numerical score and assessing functional status and pain in patients suffering from osteoarthritis of the hip.
- Plasma cytokines [Blood samples will be drawn at baseline, 1 hour post-op, 24 hours post-op, 3 days post-op, and 6 weeks post-op.]
The plasma concentration of plasma cytokines and chemokines will be measured with aid of a large protein array.
