Brief summary

Randomized controlled trial using two types of hip stems, SL PLUS MIA (control group) and SL PLUS (study group). We compare primary and secondary stability of both hip stems for radiographic outcome using EBRA (Ein-Bild-Roentgen-Analyse) after a two year follow-up period. Further, we compare all differences in clinical outcome using Harris Hip Score, Oxford hip score and radiographic findings.

Detailed description

This study is a monocentric study, randomized and controlled including two types of hip stems: SL PLUS MIA (control group) and SL PLUS (study group). Each group will include 45 patients where a number of 5 patients for each group calculated extra in case of loss. Patients will be followed after * 6 weeks * 6 months * 12 months * 24 months. Radiographs are taken in a-p and lateral view using a standard protocol. Primary and secondary stability of both hip stems will be analyzed using the EBRA software (Ein-Bild-Roentgen-Analyse, University of Innsbruck, Austria) after the completion of the two year follow-up. Further, we compare all differences in clinical outcome using Harris Hip Score, Oxford hip score and radiographic findings such as radiolucent lines.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Stability of primary total hip arthroplasty24 monthsStudy compares the stability of two types of hip stems using the Femoral Component Analysis (FCA-EBRA)method. 4 images of a-p pelvic view will be collected over a 2-year period: at 6 weeks, 6, 12 and 24 months.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Oxford Hip Score24 monthsAccording to Delaunay C, Cross-cultural adaptations of the Oxford-12 HIP score to the French speaking population, Orthop Traumatol Surg Res. 2009 Apr;95(2):89-99. Epub 2009 Apr 3. Oxford Hip Score will be measured pre-operatively, after 6 weeks, 6, 12 and 24 months.
Harris Hip Score24 monthsHarris Hip Score will be measured pre-operatively, after 6, 12 and 24 months. No measurement after 6 weeks.
