Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
SF-36Measured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperativelyA patient reported outcome (PRO). The questionnaire is a tool for measuring health status. The form is used to measure the patient's view of his own health by scoring standardized responses to standardized questions. The schedule consists of 36 questions representing eight health concepts.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
HOOSMeasured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperativelyHip - specific patient-reported outcome that measures the patient's own assessment of hip problems and related problems. The schedule consists of 42 questions representing 5 strands.
Body compositionMeasured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperativelyDual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) can measure total body bone mineral density and obtain accurate measurements of body tissue composition (muscle mass and fat mass). By measuring the body's muscle mass, fat mass and bone mineral density, one can estimate total body fat percentage.
Bone mineral density (BMD).Measured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperativelyMeasured by DXA scan.
