About this study

Summary from initial protocol

Goal: Validation of the HA (hydroxylapatite) coated SL-PLUS™ stem within an observation study

Study design: prospective, multicenter, observational, non-comparative study

Study population: 240 consecutive cases (HA-coated implants), 60 cases per study site

Intervention (if applicable): Implantation of a total hip endoprosthesis Main goals/endpoints: Radiological: radiolucent lines, osteolysis, hypo- and hypertrophy of the cortex, loosening of the implant or migration; clinical: Harris Hip Score, implant-related complications, revisions; patient questionnaires HOOS and EQ-5D

Type and extent of the risks associated with the study participation as well as benefits for the patient:

All patients will benefit from the hip prostheses without exception. There are no increased risks for the patients participating in the study compared to patients who do not participate. Normal, necessary follow-up exams will be performed over the course of 10 years. These follow-up exams will then be quantitatively evaluated within the scope of the study in accordance with a standardized protocol. Accordingly, the benefit for the patients from the participation in the study is currently not yet foreseeable.

What is being measured

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

  1. Harris Hip Score

    The Harris Hip Score (HHS) is a clinician-based outcome measure frequently used for the evaluation of patients following a total hip arthroplasty. The score considers information on pain, function and range of motion. The scale ranges from 0 - 100 whereas, a higher score indicates a favorable outcome.

    Measured: up to 10 years after implantation

  2. WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index

    The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) is widely used in the evaluation of Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis. It is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 24 items divided into 3 subscales:

    Pain (5 items): during walking, using stairs, in bed, sitting or lying, and standing upright Stiffness (2 items): after first waking and later in the day Physical Function (17 items): using stairs, rising from sitting, standing, bending, walking, getting in / out of a car, shopping, putting on / taking off socks, rising from bed, lying in bed, getting in / out of bath, sitting, getting on I off toilet, heavy domestic duties, light domestic duties

    Measured: up to 10 yeares after implantation

  3. EuroQuol-5D questionnaire

    EQ-5D is a standardised measure of health status developed by the EuroQol Group in order to provide a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal

    Measured: up to 10 years after implantation

  4. Intra- und perioperative implant-related "Adverse Events" (AE) and complications until discharge

    Adverse Events, Adverse Device Effects, Serious Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Device Effects

    Measured: from surgery up to 7 days after surgery

  5. Postoperative AE up to 10 years after the surgery

    Adverse Events, Adverse Device Effects, Serious Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Device Effects

    Measured: up to 10 years after implantation

  6. Survival, Kaplan Meier

    Hip implants in situ after 10 years of follow-up

    Measured: up to 10 years after implantation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Radiographic changes

    Radiographic changes defined as radiolucent lines, osteolysis, hypo- and hypertrophy of the cortex, loosening of the implant or migration.

    Measured: up to 10 years after implantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty, run by Smith & Nephew Orthopaedics AG at 2 sites in Austria.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Austria. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Harris Hip Score (time frame: up to 10 years after implantation). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2023.
