Trial summary

The specific aim is to quantify the stability of the acetabular and femoral components of a revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) in vivo as currently performed at our institution. In this way, the investigators will gain insight into the outcome of the current state of the art of revision arthroplasty surgery. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Analysis of the Stability of Total Hip Arthroplasty Implants Used in Revision Surgery Using Radiostereometric Analysis (RSA)

The specific aim is to quantify the stability of the acetabular and femoral components of a revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) in vivo as currently performed at our institution. In this way, the investigators will gain insight into the outcome of the current state of the art of revision arthroplasty surgery. In the past, acetabular and femoral component stability has been measured using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) and when patients having revision total hip operations were compared to patients undergoing primary total hip operations it was possible to determine differences in stability and this was predictive of the intermediate to long-term performance of the acetabular and femoral reconstruction. The investigators propose to use this established, high resolution technique to assess and compare the stability of the revision implants.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bead placement during revision hip replacement surgeryProcedure or surgery

    Tantalum beads will be placed in the surrounding pelvic and femoral bone and the polyethylene component during surgical treatment of failed primary THA components

Study groups in NCT01668160
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Revision Total HipExperimentalpatients recieving a revision total hip replacement will be assessed for implant stability and wear using RSA. Tantalum beads will be placed in the polyethylene and surrounding pelvic and femoral bone.
Receives: Procedure: Bead placement during revision hip replacement surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Stability of Acetabular and femoral components

    RSA films will be taken at the prescribed time intervals to measure component mothion over time.

    Measured: 1, 2, 3, 5 years after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Wear of the polyethlene component

    The movement of the femoral head into the polyethylenen, (wear), will be measured at the prescribed time intervals.

    Measured: 1, 2, 3, 5 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bead placement during revision hip replacement surgery in people with Osteoarthritis of Hip and Failure of Primary THA, run by Massachusetts General Hospital at 1 site in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 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 United States. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Stability of Acetabular and femoral components (time frame: 1, 2, 3, 5 years after surgery). 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 5 Nov 2013.
