MeasureTime frameDescription
Changes From Baseline in Patients' Function. Clinical Evaluation Using the Harris Hip Score6 weeks, 6 months, 1 yearThe items in the Harris hip score (HHS) include an analysis of the operated hip according to pain, function, mobility and stability, and an analysis of deformities, in a scale form 0 point (the worst condition) to 100 points (the best condition). The Harris Hip Score will be used to assess the subjective and objective improvement in the patient. The usefulness of the score has been designed to estimate clinical outcomes after THA and demonstrated high reliability and validity. The HHS values at each time points, 6 weeks, 6 months and 1 year, and for each patient, will be reported as difference respect the preoperative value collected at preoperative.

Changes From Baseline in Patient's Activity Level. Assessment Using the High Activity Arthroplasty Score.

The HAAS was designed to detect subtle variations in functional ability after lower limb arthroplasty, in a scale from 0 (minimum, the worst condition) to 18 points (maximum, the best condition) The HAAS values at each time points, 6 months and 1 year, and for each patient, will be reported as difference respect the preoperative value collected at preoperative.

Time frame: 6 months, 1 year

Population: 20 patients/group were enrolled at beginning but from 6 weeks to 1 year time point the score was counted for patients available. At 6 weeks the HAAS was calculated for n=20 (AMIStem) and n=19 (Quadra), at 6 months n=20 (AMIStem) and n=18 (Quadra) and at 1 year n=18 (AMistem) and n=18 (Quadra).
