  • Hip replacementProcedure or surgery

    Also called Durom Total Hip System

    This study evaluates femoral head resurfacing versus a large femoral head (Durom®) total hip system. This is a prospective randomized trial.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To estimate the difference in postoperative quality of life between patients with Durom® hip resurfacing versus those with total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a large-head, metal-on-metal articulation

    Measured: at 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To estimate the difference in concentrations of cobalt and chromium ions in serum

  2. To estimate the difference in gait (pelvic tilt, forward velocity, and cadence)

    Measured: at 12 and 52 weeks

  3. To estimate the lower limb functional instability by a test of postural balance

What does the primary outcome measure?

To estimate the difference in postoperative quality of life between patients with Durom® hip resurfacing versus those with total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a large-head, metal-on-metal articulation (time frame: at 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
