About this study

Evaluation of noise induced by ceramic-ceramic friction torques of total hip prostheses with customized femoral stem.

Retrospective and prospective multicentric study.

Read the detailed description

On a series of patients operated on for more than two years after a total hip arthroplasty that resulted in the implantation of a ceramic-on-ceramic prosthesis with a customized femoral stem:

Primary objective: To assess the frequency of occurrence of joint noise.

Secondary objectives:

  • To describe the characteristics of the noise nuisance (date of onset, frequency, intensity, impact...)
  • To evaluate the individual and surgical factors associated with the occurrence of noise pollution.

What is being measured

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

  1. Noise nuisance

    Percentage of occurrence of noise nuisance (assessed in relation to the total number of patients and the total number of prostheses).

    The frequency of occurrence of noise nuisance will be analysed descriptively. The time elapsed until the occurrence of the noise nuisance will be additionally assessed by a Kaplan-Meier analysis.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Oxford Score

    The Oxford Hip Score questionnaire (OHS 12) consists of 12 questions. It measures pain (6 items) and hip function (6 items) in relation to activities of daily living such as walking, dressing and sleep disturbance. Each question has 5 possible answers. Each has a value from 0 to 4, with 0 representing the highest level of severity and 4 representing no or almost no symptoms.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) Score

    The HOOS questionnaire is a self-administered questionnaire specific to hip arthroplasty. It consists of 40 questions with 5 domains: 5 questions on symptoms and stiffness; 10 questions on pain; 17 questions on functional results in daily life; 4 questions on sport and leisure activities; 4 questions on quality of life.

    It includes 5 sub-scores, one sub-score per domain.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Forgotten Joint Score

    The Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12) is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 12 questions assessing the degree of forgetfulness of hip replacements in a given situation of daily life. Each answer is selected from a 5-point Likert scale with response options ranging from never (0) to most of the time (4).

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Prosthesis life span

    The life span of the prosthesis is the time between the implantation of the prosthesis and its complete or partial surgical revision.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Arthroplasty Complications, run by GCS Ramsay Santé pour l'Enseignement et la Recherche at 1 site in France.

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 3 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 1 Jul 2024. 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 France. 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?

Noise nuisance (time frame: 2 years). 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 1 Jul 2024.
