About this study

Summary from initial protocol

Goal: Validation of the uncoated SL-PLUS® MIA stem within an observation study

Study design: prospective, single-center, observational, non-comparative study

Study population: 135 consecutive cases (uncoated SL-PLUS® MIA implants)

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 questionnaire (WOMAC)

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. Survival, Kaplan Meier

    Survival rate: Rate of hip implants in situ after 10 years of follow-up.

    Measured: up to 10 years after implantation

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

    Rate of hip implant experiencing intra- und perioperative implant-related "Adverse Events" (AE) and complications until discharge.

    Rate of hip implants with Adverse Events, Adverse Device Effects, Serious Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Device Effects

    Measured: up to patient's discharge from the hospital/clinic (from surgery up to 7 days after surgery)

  3. Postoperative AE up to 10 years after the surgery

    Rate of hip implants experiencing 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

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Radiographic changes defined as radiolucent lines, osteolysis, hypo- and hypertrophy of the cortex, loosening of the implant or migration.

    Rate of hip implants with 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

  2. 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

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty, run by Smith & Nephew Orthopaedics AG.

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 3 inclusion and 13 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 6 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Survival, Kaplan Meier (time frame: up to 10 years after implantation). The study lists 3 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 6 Jan 2026.
