Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To determine the effect of 150,000 vs 300,000 IU cholecalciferol on serum 25-OHD on day 3, 5, 14 and after 6 weeks and 3 months in patients undergoing major orthopaedic surgery or receiving conservative treatment.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To determine the effect of 150,000 vs 300,000 IU cholecalciferol on serum calcium and PTH on day 3, 5, 14 and after 6 weeks and 3 months; 2. To determine the effect of surgery on the absorption of cholecalciferol; 3. To determine the effect of surgery on serum calcium and PTH; 4. To determine whether there is a wash-out period of the effect of cholecalciferol during 3 months of follow up, i.e. what is the time serum 25-OHD is remains above 50nmol/liter after a single oral dose of cholecalciferol; 5. To determine changes in general well being measured by SF-12; 6. To determine whether there is relapse of patients from sufficient to insufficient or deficient.
