Filter by:The study will evaluate the radiographs (x-rays) of 100 patients with a TriFIT total hip at 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and yearly following surgery to see if there has been any movement or wear in the hip stem over the course of the study. The study will also record clinical data on each patient using various functional tests and questionnaires at the same intervals.
This is a prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical study to compare the safety and efficacy of TC-A PS total knee system with TC-PLUS Solution PS total knee system in Chinese subjects.
This study is intended to gather short (Pre-operative to 4-years) and mid-term (5-years) information regarding the performance and safety of the commercially available 36mm CERAMAX® Ceramic on Ceramic Total Hip System from a cohort of new study subjects that were not previously involved in the IDE study for this device.
This study is intended to gather medium (5- to 7-years) and long-term (minimum 8- to 10-years) information regarding the performance and safety of the commercially available 36mm CERAMAX® Ceramic on Ceramic (COC) Total Hip System from a cohort of study subjects that were previously enrolled in the IDE study. (COC = 36mm ceramic acetabular bearing insert component that articulates with a ceramic femoral head in the COC total hip replacement system)
Evaluate E1 wear, Clinical Performance of E1 liner in THA in Korean Patient Population
The primary purpose of this study is to measure the postoperative changes in bone mineral density, comparing the Taperloc Complete Reduced Distal Microplasty stem and the standard length Taperloc Complete Reduced Distal stem.
To demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Trinity™ BIOLOX delta™ Ceramic-on-Ceramic Total Hip System in comparison to the Trinity™ Acetabular Hip System,which is FDA cleared for use in the U.S. The comparison will be based upon clinical success at the Month 24 endpoint.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the Arcos Revision Stem system, determine the stability of the implants, and evaluate any relationship between Paprosky bone defect level and the success of the Arcos Stem.
Hip replacement is a common surgical procedure performed to relieve the pain and disability. In general, the surgery consists of replacing the diseased or damaged joint surfaces of the hip with metal and plastic components shaped to allow continued motion of the hip. Surgeons may perform this operation in several different ways. The purpose of this study is to compare two different methods of performing total hip replacement. The investigators hypothesize that subjects treated with the anterior approached may show improved function during the early postoperative period, but that no differences in pain or function will be present after the first postoperative year. In this study, patients that have elected to have hip replacement and consented to participate in the study will be randomized to have his or her hip replaced using one of two surgical techniques. Subjects will be randomized to be implanted using either an anterior or posterior approach. With the anterior approach, the study surgeon will use an incision that is on the front of the hip, and with the posterior approach, the incision will be more on the backside of your hip. The study surgeon has done more than 300 total hip replacements with both of these techniques. A baseline assessment will be conducted before hip replacement surgery that includes x-rays, functional tasks like getting up from a chair and stepping down a step, and three questionnaires about the hip, the subject's general health, and how well the subject is able to function. Also, subjects will be required to return to the clinic at several time points after surgery for follow-up visits. Follow-up visits will include hip assessments and questionnaires, as well as follow-up hip x-rays. The follow-up visits will be 6 weeks, 3 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7 years, and 10 years after hip replacement surgery. These follow-up visits are part of the study surgeon's normal routine for hip replacement patients, and are not extra visits as a part of this study.
The proposed study is a double-blinded randomized controlled trial comparing patient specific instruments with solely standardized instruments and pre-operative planning used for the placement of the acetabular cup prosthesis used in total hip arthroplasty. The investigators will enroll 36 patients who have consented to total hip arthroplasty for treatment of hip pathology. This treatment is a standard of care. Patients will receive standard of care pre- and post-operative care and placement of standard of care implants all of which are commercially available and FDA approved for general use for the clinical indications used in these patients. All patients will receive a pre-operative CT scan for surgical planning and comparison with post-operative CT scan. The difference in intervention between the groups will be the creation and use of patient specific instruments from the pre-operative planning session. These instruments will be used for placement of an indexing peripheral guide wire to direct acetabular preparation and placement of the shell assisting standard surgical instruments. Print-offs from the pre-operative plan will also be used in the treatment group. The post-operative scan will be performed within two weeks of the surgery for both the treatment and control groups. The investigators will analyze the difference in acetabular shell placement (acetabular version and abduction angle) from the pre-operatively planned CT scan. These differences will be compared between the control and experimental groups.
