Emphasys Radiostereometric Analysis

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Hip Osteoarthritis

In brief

This study is designed as a prospective, multi-centre, non-randomized, non-controlled study. This study does not limit the procedures involved in the treatment of the subject as long as the protocol specified products are utilized. The primary objective is to establish the mean superior cup migration of the Emphasys Shell and the mean inferior stem migration of the Emphasys Stem using model-based RSA over the first two years post-implantation. Additionally, the data from this study will be compared to historical Pinnacle Acetabular Shell data obtained in study DSJ\_2018\_02.

• Individuals who are willing and able to complete the Subject Hip Outcomes questionnaires as specified by the study protocol.

You may not qualify if…

• Individuals who have active local or systemic infection.
• Individuals who have loss of musculature, neuromuscular compromise or vascular compromise that would impact rehabilitation following surgery.
• Individuals with poor bone quality, such as osteoporosis, where in the surgeon's opinion, there could be considerable migration of the prosthesis or require additional acetabular cup fixation using screws, or a significant chance of fracture of the femoral shaft and/or the lack of adequate bone to support the implant(s).

• Individuals that have amputations in either leg that would impact rehabilitation following surgery.
• Individuals who are bedridden
• Individuals that have participated in a clinical investigation with an investigational product (drug or device) in the last three months.
• Individuals currently involved in any personal injury litigation, medical-legal or worker's compensation claims.
• Individuals, in the opinion of the Investigator, who are drug or alcohol abusers or have a psychological disorder that could affect their ability to complete patient reported questionnaires or be compliant with follow-up requirements.
• Individuals diagnosed and taking prescription medications to treat a muscular disorder that limits mobility due to sever stiffness and pain such as fibromyalgia or polymyalgia.
• Subject has a medical condition with less than 2 years life expectancy.
• Individual has a BMI >45 kg/m2.
