What is being measured

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

  1. SF-36

    A patient reported outcome (PRO). The questionnaire is a tool for measuring health status. The form is used to measure the patient's view of his own health by scoring standardized responses to standardized questions. The schedule consists of 36 questions representing eight health concepts.

    Measured: Measured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. HOOS

    Hip - specific patient-reported outcome that measures the patient's own assessment of hip problems and related problems. The schedule consists of 42 questions representing 5 strands.

    Measured: Measured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperatively

  2. Body composition

    Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) can measure total body bone mineral density and obtain accurate measurements of body tissue composition (muscle mass and fat mass). By measuring the body's muscle mass, fat mass and bone mineral density, one can estimate total body fat percentage.

    Measured: Measured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperatively

  3. Bone mineral density (BMD).

    Measured by DXA scan.

    Measured: Measured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hip Osteoarthritis, run by University of Aarhus at 1 site in Denmark.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Aug 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

SF-36 (time frame: Measured 1 week before surgery and 12 months postoperatively). 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 13 Aug 2013.
