Trial summary

The pain and severe wear of hip joints caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis and trauma can be subjected to total hip replacement (THR). A hip implant consists of 4 components: acetabular cup, femoral stem, articular liner and femoral head. Read more about this study

About this study

The pain and severe wear of hip joints caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis and trauma can be subjected to total hip replacement (THR). A hip implant consists of 4 components: acetabular cup, femoral stem, articular liner and femoral head. As an ideal material for THR, ceramic possesses excellent biocompatibility and stability in the human bodies. Moreover, ceramic-on-ceramic interface is highly wear-resistant, preventing generation of wear particles. With the development of latest fourth-generation ceramic Delta, larger femoral heads can be manufactured to conform to the size of native femoral heads. The rate of some of the complications after THR, such as dislocation, can be significantly reduced. The purpose of the present study is to carry out a clinical follow up for each patient who has received the ceramic-on-ceramic THR in order to understand the clinical outcome. Furthermore, the possible complications, such as dislocation and squeaking, can be determined.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual Analogue Scale- Change from baseline at 1 year

    Visual Analogue Scale is a patient-reported outcome measure. The scale ranges from 0 to 10. A score of 0 represents no pain, while a score of 10 represents extreme pain.

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 year

  2. Harris Hip Score- Change from baseline at 1 year

    Harris Hip Score includes 4 sections that evaluate pain, function, deformity, and range of motion. Total scores is from 0 to 100, higher scores represent a better outcome.

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 year

  3. Oxford Hip Score- Change from baseline at 1 year

    Oxford Hip Score is a patient-reported outcome measure with 12 questions related to the condition of function and pain. Total scores is from 0 to 48, higher scores represent a better outcome.

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 year

  4. Radiologic analysis- Change from baseline at 1 year

    Radiologic analysis helps observe the existence of radiolucent lines, which can be analyzed to determine if implant loosening occurs.

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Total Hip Arthroplasty and Total Hip Replacement, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2020. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Yang-Chen Chou (886-5-532-3911 ext. 5886, ycchou00058@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Visual Analogue Scale- Change from baseline at 1 year (time frame: Change from baseline at 1 year). The study lists 4 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 5 Feb 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
