Study summary

This is a Post Marketing Clinical Follow Up study (PMCF) on the AVANTAGE RELOAD dual mobility system cup.

Read the detailed description

The study objective is to document the patients' survivorship at 10 years and evaluate the performances at 3 months, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10 years post-surgery of the AVANTAGE RELOAD cup. Secondary objective is to evaluate the polyethylene wear between E1 and ARCOM.

500 patients was the enrollment goal with 2 subgroups.

  • Subgroup 1: prospective and non-controlled to satisfy ODEP (Orthopedic Device Evaluation Panel) requirements;
  • Subgroup 2: randomized and controlled to compare the polyethylene wear between the Arcom and the E1 liners.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Survivorship

    Implant survivorship

    Time frame: 10 years post-surgery

Secondary outcomes

  1. Harris hip scores

    To measure clinical efficacy

    Time frame: 10 years post-surgery

  2. EQ-5D

    To measure clinical efficacy

    Time frame: 10 years post-surgery

  3. Radiographic Evaluation

    Abnormalities determined on X-rays in the bone region surrounding the implant will be reported (radiolucencies, osteolysis, hypertrophy, subsidence, heterotopic ossification, etc)

    Time frame: 10 years post-surgery

  4. Complications

    Eventual complications occurred including dislocations and revisions/removals

    Time frame: 10 years post-surgery
