Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Migration and inducible movement of cemented acetabular components impacted. Each patient will be evaluated using standard weight bearing and non-weight bearing RSA radiographs at time of discharge, at six weeks, three months, six months, one year and two years after surgery. In addition, each patient will receive one repeat examination for clinical precision estimate in accordance with RSA guidelines.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Joint function, assessed using the Oxford Hip Score before surgery and again 12 months after surgery 2. General health,assessed using the Euroquol 5D score before surgery, 12 months after surgery and 24 months after surgery 3. Assessment of a hip arthroplasty via plain x-ray - radiolucency before surgery, just after surgery, then again at 12 months and 24 months
