Brief summary

This study is in response to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) call to all manufacturers with 510(k) clearance for metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) devices to conduct postmarket surveillance studies. MicroPort has various acetabular shells, acetabular liners, fixation screws, femoral heads, femoral stems, modular necks, and proximal bodies currently cleared for MoM indications. Together these components comprise the Wright Medical Technology (WMT) MoM THA System. The primary objective of the study is to determine the incidence of adverse local tissue reactions (ALTR) in each THA implanted with the WMT MoM THA System overall and to create cross-sectional epochs of ≤ 8 years and \> 8 years, since implantation.

Interventions

DEVICEWright Medical Technology Metal-on-Metal Total Hip System

Subjects in Group 1 previously implanted prior to the study start date will be identified from Investigator records. Collected data will be evaluated in aggregate and cross-sectioned by year of implantation. Subjects will be cross-sectioned by the time that has elapsed between implantation and the initial visit (e.g. 5 years, 6 years) using contiguous visit windows (number of years + 6 months). Subject data will be grouped in order to create cross-sectional epochs of ≤ 8 years and \> 8 years.

Is capable of providing sufficient blood for sampling according to blood draw procedures 6. Is willing to sign the approved Informed Consent document Previously implanted bilateral subjects can have both THAs enrolled in the study provided: 1) the specified combination of components were implanted in both, 2) all other aspects of the Inclusion/

Exclusion criteria

are satisfied, 3) enrollment does not exceed the subject count specified in the Clinical Trial Agreement and protocol enrollment strategy, and 4) the subject agrees to a second Informed Consent document and data collection specific to the second THA. Enrollment and treatment of a previously unimplanted hip is not permitted in this study. To be included in Group 2, subjects must meet all of the following criteria: 1. Does not have a metal implant (total hip, total knee, spinal, etc.) with the exception of dental implants 2. Is not an employee of the Investigator 3. Is willing and able to provide Informed Consent document 4. Is willing and able to attend the requested study visit(s) and assessments 5. Is capable of providing sufficient blood for sampling according to blood draw procedures

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Determine chromium and cobalt whole blood and serum ion levels across time intervals≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantationCobalt and chromium metal ion levels will be measured in whole blood and serum from subjects implanted with the WMT MoM THA System (Group 1) at each defined cross-section interval.
Establish baseline for chromium and cobalt whole blood and serum ion levels across time intervals≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantationAnalyze difference in chromium and cobalt whole blood and serum ion levels in subjects implanted with the WMT MoM THA System (Group 1) versus control subjects (Group 2) cross-sectionally.
Compare functional outcomes of subjects implanted with the WMT MoM THA System with and without ALTR (Group-1 subjects).≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantationCalculate and compare composite hip outcomes scores, via the validated HOOS scores, in Group 1 subjects with ALTR versus Group 1 subjects without ALTR
