Brief summary
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the implant fixation of the NANOS™ Neck Preserving Hip Stem (OHST Medizintechnik AG, distributed by Smith & Nephew GmbH, Marl, Germany) by measuring the migration of the implant using the model-based roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis (MBRSA).

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Subject required primary total hip arthroplasty unilateral or bilateral with a diagnosis of primary and secondary coxarthrosis, dysplasia coxarthrosis and post-traumatic necrosis of the femoral head confirmed by x-ray analysis. For bilateral subjects at least three months between surgical procedures were required. * Subject was willing to consent to participate in the study and planned to be available for the follow-up examinations. * Subject had normal motor function of the lower extremities, documented through clinical examinations and lack of signs of a neurological disease with changed motor function. * Subject was 30 to 65 (inclusive) years of age at time of surgery.
Exclusion criteria
* Subject had previous bone or soft tissue surgery of the affected hip except for arthroscopic surgery. * Subject had a local or systemic infection. * Subject had previously diagnosed osteoporosis. * Subject had a femoral neck angle of \>145°. * Subject had a femoral neck angle of \<125°. * Subject had a disease of the cardiovascular system involving particularly reduced load capacity in the everyday life, counting as contraindication of physical stress (American Society of Anaesthesiologists' (ASA) Score 3 or 4). * Subject had a documented allergy against elements of the implanted device. * Subject had a neurological disease with changed motor function. * Subject was pregnant. * Subject had a Body Mass Index (BMI) \> 30. * Subject suffered from alcoholism or addictive disorders. * Subject needed a revision hip arthroplasty. * Subject had an insufficient command of the language to understand patient information and consent.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of migration pattern of the Nanos stem | 2 years | Measuring migration used the model-based RSA method |
| Change in quality of life | 2 years | Measuring change in quality of life using the Short Form (SF) 36 Mental Component Score * Minimum Value: 0 (worst outcome) * Maximum Value: 100 (best outcome) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Harris Hip Score | 2 years | Investigator assessed outcome score Minimum: 0 (worst outcome) Maximum: 100 (best outcome) |
| University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) scale | 2 years | Score rating the patient's current activity level * Minimum: 1 (wholly inactive subject) * Maximum: 10 (totally active subject) |
| Pain Visual Analogue Scale | 2 years | Score representing patient's current pain intensity * Minimum: 0 (no pain) * Maximum: 100 (very severe pain) |
| Postel Merle d'Aubigné-Score | 2 years | Score grading the functional value of the hip * Minimum: 0 (worst outcome) * Maximum: 6 ( best outcome) Grading is done in each of the three dimensions: pain, mobility and ability to walk. |
| Hip Disability and Ostheoarthritis Outcome Score | 2 years | Patient reported outcome * Minimum: 0 (best outcome) * Maximum: 96 (worst outcome) |
| Radiographic Evaluation | 2 years | Evaluation of radiographic images regarding implant position, implant fixation, heterotopic ossifications (HO), radiolucencies, osteolysis, atrophy and hypertrophy |
| Number of adverse events | 2 years | Collection of adverse events |
