NCT00953719

Brief Summary

This study is a supplement to the 28 mm Ceramic-on-Ceramic study which was designed to evaluate artificial hips with a 28 mm ceramic head and liner to determine whether they perform as well as artificial hips with a 28 mm ceramic head and a polyethylene liner. This arm of the study is designed to compare a 36 mm ceramic head and sleeve with a subset of the control (28mm ceramic head and a polyethylene sleeve) from the original study (G030075) (NCT#00208507) with additional follow-up, to determine if they perform as well.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Total Harris Hip Score

    The Harris Hip scoring system assigns a numeric value to responses from patients and assessments made by a surgeon. A score of 91-100 is excellent, 81-90 is good, 71-80 is fair, 70 or below is poor. The patient records the following: pain level, need for assistance when walking, presence of a limp, distance able to walk, ability to put on shoes and socks, climb stairs, use public transportation and the length of time one is able to comfortably sit in a chair are all scored. The Total Harris Hip Score is a sum of its subscores (Pain, Function, Activities, Deformity, and Range of Motion).

    At final follow-up visit, 24 months or later, up to 72 months

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Harris Hip Subscale Score: Pain

    At final follow-up visit, 24 months or later, up to 72 months

  • Harris Hip Subscale Score: Function

    At final follow-up visit, 24 months or later, up to 72 months

  • Harris Hip Subscale Score: Activities

    At final follow-up visit, 24 months or later, up to 72 months

  • Harris Hip Subscale Score: Deformity

    At final follow-up visit, 24 months or later, up to 72 months

  • Harris Hip Subscale Score: Range of Motion

    At final follow-up visit, 24 months or later, up to 72 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease. Composite diagnoses of NIDJD include osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, post-traumatic arthritis, slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE), fracture of the pelvis, and developmental dysplasia.
  • X-ray evaluation confirms the presence of NIDJD
  • Femoral and acetabular bone stock is sufficient, regarding strength and shape, and is suitable to receive the implants.
  • Individuals 20 to 75 years of age at the time of surgery
  • Patients with a previous total hip replacement of the contralateral leg who have a pain rating of none or slight and who are at least one year post arthroplasty are eligible for participation in the study.
  • Harris Hip Score of 70 or lower
  • Pain at least Moderate

You may not qualify if:

  • Presence of a previous prosthetic hip replacement device (any type, including surface replacement arthroplasty, endoprosthesis, etc.) in the hip joint to be operated.
  • Previous Girdlestone procedure (resection arthroplasty) or surgical fusion of the hip to be operated.
  • Acute femoral neck fracture.
  • Above knee amputation of the contralateral and/or ipsilateral leg.
  • Patients with bilateral degenerative joint disease requiring staged or simultaneous hip replacements.
  • Patients with an existing total hip arthroplasty in the contralateral hip with a Harris Hip pain rating of mild, moderate, marked or totally disabled.
  • Patients who have undergone total hip arthroplasties in their contralateral hips within the past 12 months.
  • Patients with a known allergy to metal (e.g. jewelry).
  • Skeletally immature patients (tibial and femoral epiphyses are not closed).
  • Evidence of active infections that may spread to other areas of the body (e.g., osteomyelitis, pyogenic infection of the hip joint, overt infection, urinary tract infection, etc.).
  • The presence of highly communicable disease or diseases that may limit follow-up (e.g., immuno-compromised conditions, hepatitis, active tuberculosis, etc.).
  • Presence of known metastatic or neoplastic disease.
  • Significant neurologic or musculoskeletal disorders or disease that may adversely affect gait or weight bearing, (e.g., muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis).
  • Conditions that may interfere with the total hip arthroplasty's survival or outcome, (e.g., Paget's disease, Charcot's disease).
  • Any patient believed to be unwilling or unable to comply with a rehabilitation program for a cementless total hip replacement or who indicates difficulty or inability to return for follow-up visits prescribed by the study protocol.
  • +6 more criteria
