Conditions

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Mortality. Timepoint: 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery. Method of measurement: Follow up.;Harris hip score assessment (HHS). Timepoint: 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery. Method of measurement: Demographic characteristics checklist and Harriss hip score (HHHS). HHS is a scoring index of the hip joint that has 100 points, and the higher the score, the more successful the surgery is, and it consists of four subscales: pain (44 points), Function (47 points), deformity (4 points) and range of motion (5 points).Pain range measures the intensity of pain, its effect on activities and the need for pain medication.	—
