What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Subsidence over time of Excia T® stem (EBRA-FCA)

    The subsidence of the Excia T stem will be measured with Ein-Bild-Röntgen-Analysis Femoral Component Analysis (EBRA-FCA). EBRA allows a non-invasive measurement of routinely taken A/P radiographs. Necessary is a series of at least four x-rays that can be read by the EBRA software. The whole implant must be visible on the A/P x-ray, as well as the greater and lesser trochanter. Subsidence shall be measured on the follow-up x-rays in comparison to the discharge x-rays.

    Time frame: discharge (approx. 1 week postop), 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

Secondary outcomes

  1. Clinical Results over time (Harris Hip Score)

    The clinical assessment will be done with the Harris Hip Score (HHS)

    Time frame: preoperative, discharge (approx. 1 week postop), 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

  2. Quality of Life over time (EQ-5D-5L)

    The generic patient reported outcome score EQ-5D-5L will be used for the assessment of quality of life.

    Time frame: preoperative, discharge (approx. 1 week postop), 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

  3. Osteolysis over time (localized bone resorption)

    radiological evaluation will be done according to the (A/P) Gruen zones

    Time frame: 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

  4. Radiolucent lines over time

    radiological evaluation will be done according to the (A/P) Gruen zones: ≤1mm, 1-2mm, ≥2mm

    Time frame: 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

  5. Cortical thinning

    radiological evaluation will be done according to the (A/P) Gruen zones

    Time frame: 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

  6. Hypertrophy

    radiological evaluation will be done according to the (A/P) Gruen zones

    Time frame: 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

  7. Mechanical Alignment over time

    any change of the A/P implant angle (varus / valgus alignment) as assessed with EBRA-FCA will be evaluated

    Time frame: discharge (approx. 1 week postop), 3, 12 and 24 months postoperative

  8. Adverse Events / Serious Adverse Events

    Rates of Adverse Events / Serious Adverse Events are recorded

    Time frame: until 24 months postoperative

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 7, 2017, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
