What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Chromium serum ion level across time intervals

    To compare the chromium serum ion levels in the patient population from pre-operatively through 6 years post-operatively in a 1-way ANOVA. This is a cross-sectional study so each time interval (2 through 6 years) will be a different cohort of patients. Notes: Pre-operative values are being collected via a separate protocol. There is no 1 year data available for this product due its withdrawal from the market.

    Measured: Pre-operatively through 6 years

  2. Change in Chromium whole blood ion level across time intervals

    To compare the chromium whole blood ion levels in the patient population from pre-operatively through 6 years post-operatively in a 1-way ANOVA. This is a cross-sectional study so each time interval (2 through 6 years) will be a different cohort of patients. Notes: Pre-operative values are being collected via a separate protocol. There is no 1 year data available for this product due its withdrawal from the market.

    Measured: Pre-operatively through 6 years

  3. Change in Cobalt serum ion level across time intervals

    To compare the cobalt serum ion levels in the patient population from pre-operatively through 6 years post-operatively in a 1-way ANOVA. This is a cross-sectional study so each time interval (2 through 6 years) will be a different cohort of patients. Notes: Pre-operative values are being collected via a separate protocol. There is no 1 year data available for this product due its withdrawal from the market.

    Measured: Pre-operatively through 6 years

  4. Change in Cobalt whole blood ion level across time intervals

    To compare the cobalt whole blood ion levels in the patient population from pre-operatively through 6 years post-operatively in a 1-way ANOVA. This is a cross-sectional study so each time interval (2 through 6 years) will be a different cohort of patients. Notes: Pre-operative values are being collected via a separate protocol. There is no 1 year data available for this product due its withdrawal from the market.

    Measured: Pre-operatively through 6 years

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Poolability of data across stem types

    Within each of the primary analyses, the poolability of the data across stem types will be confirmed with a 2-way ANOVA model in which both time interval and stem type are independent variables. Note: Pre-operative data is being collected via a separate protocol.

    Measured: Pre-operatively through 6 years post-operatively

  2. Incidence of adverse local tissue reaction (ALTR)

    To determine trends in the incidence of ALTR over time.

    Measured: Pre-operatively through 6 years post-operatively

  3. Implant survivorship

    To determine implant survivorship, where an implant is considered to be surviving when none of the total hip replacement (THR)system components have been removed or replaced, so that the original system with metal-on-metal (MoM) articulating surfaces remains intact. Implant survivorship will be analyzed in two ways: 1) for all revisions (for any reason)and 2) for revisions due to ALTR.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  4. To identify the incidence of ALTR among unrevised subjects

    To identify the incidence of ALTR among unrevised subjects through physical examination and imaging.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  5. Ion levels among revised subjects

    To compare cobalt and chromium ion level (prior to revision) vs. baseline for subjects who are revised. Note: Pre-operative levels are being obtained via a separate protocol.

    Measured: Pre-operatively through 6 years post-operatively

  6. Harris Hip and HOOS analysis for pain, function and total score

    To identify the incidence of pain or functional symptoms among unrevised subjects with a Harris Hip and HOOS evaluation. To compare cobalt and chromium ion levels for unrevised subject who are exhibiting pain or functional symptoms vs. unrevised subject who are not exhibiting pain or functional symptoms.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  7. To determine the association of adverse events with elevated ion levels

    To investigate the association of adverse events with elevated cobalt and chromium ion levels. For each respective adverse event, to compare cobalt and chromium ion levels for subjects who have vs. subjects who have not exhibited the adverse event. For each respective adverse event category, to present summary statistics of cobalt and chromium ion levels for subjects who have vs. subjects who have not exhibited the adverse event, stratified by post-op time cohort.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  8. Trending

    Trends (over time since initial implant) will be evaluated for : 1) revisions (survivorship), 2) adverse events, 3) pain or functional symptoms (via Harris Hip and HOOS evaluations), 4) incidence of ALTR in unrevised subjects

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  9. Patient history and demographics and association with outcomes

    Patient demographic and subject history will be evaluated for association with: 1) higher metal ion levels and 2) risk of revision

    Measured: Throughout 6 years post-operatively

  10. Modes and causes of implant failure

    To evaluate modes and causes of implant failure based on an analysis of reasonably available explanted retrieved devices.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  11. Metal ion levels and association with reason for revision

    To compare cobalt and chromium levels across the different reasons for revision.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  12. Comparison of metal ion levels across subjects with vs. without ALTR

    Cobalt and chromium ion levels will be compared for unrevised subjects who were not diagnosed with an ALTR vs. unrevised subjects who were diagnosed with an ALTR.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  13. Ion level vs. baseline for ALTR subjects

    To compare cobalt and chromium ion level vs. baseline for subjects who are diagnosed with ALTR. Note: Baseline measurements are being captured via a separate protocol.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively

  14. Ion level change from first measurement for ALTR subjects

    Cobalt and chromium ion levels will be compared from first measurement to the time of revision (prior to revision) or the time of last follow-up visit in the study, whichever comes first, for subjects who are diagnosed with an ALTR.

    Measured: Through 6 years post-operatively
