Trial Outcomes & Findings for Fitmore Hip Stem PMCF Study: A Multi-centre, Non-comparative, Prospective Post-market Clinical Follow-up Study. (NCT NCT03411044)

NCT ID: NCT03411044

Last Updated: 2024-11-05

Results Overview

The Harris hip Score (HHS) is an outcome measure that includes a series of questions answered by the patient and physical examinations recorded by a qualified health care Professional. The HHS covers four domains: pain (one item, 0-44 points), function and functional activities (seven items, 0-47 points), absence of deformity (one item, 0-4 points) and range of motion (one item, 0-5 points). The total score can vary from a range of 0 - 100. The outcome score can be categorized as Excellent: 90-100; Good: 80-90; Fair: 70-80; Poor: \< 70.

Timeframe: 10 years post surgery

Population: All study patients involved in the study.

The primary endpoint for this study is implant survival at 10 years which is assessed by revision of the Fitmore Hip Stem calculated using the Kaplan-Meier Survival Estimation. The survivorship with Kaplan-Meier (K-M) was calculated at 10 year for endpoint revision of any component.

The EuroQol 5 Dimension (EQ-5D) is a standardized Instrument widely used to measure health status. It is a self reported assessment about the patient's quality of life composed of two parts: a questionnaire and a visual analogue scale (VAS). The questionnaire includes 5 questions referring to mobility, selfcare, daily activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each question can be answered in five ways, indicating no, slight, moderate, severe problems or inability to complete the task. The EQ-5D-5L score ranges from -0.59 to 1, where 1 is the best possible health state. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a vertical scale ranges from 100 ('The best health you can imagine') to 0 ('The worst health you can imagine') where the patient reports his/her self-rated health.

The SF-12 is a multipurpose short-form (SF) generic measure of health status. It consists of twelve questions that measure eight health domains to assess physical and mental health. Physical health-related domains include General Health (GH), Physical Functioning (PF), Role Physical (RP), and Body Pain (BP). Mental health-related scales include Vitality (VT), Social Functioning (SF), Role Emotional (RE), and Mental Health (MH). Scores ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better physical and mental health functioning.

The Oxford Hip Score (OHS) is a patient-reported outcome measure that was developed to specifically assess the patient's perspective of outcome following THA. The OHS consists of twelve questions covering function and pain associated with the hip. To calculate the total score, each response is scored from 0 (warst outcome) to 4 (best outcome) and the sum of all 12 items is reported with a maximum of 48, representing the best score possible. The Score ranges from 0 - 100 and the outcome score can be categorized as Excellent: \> 41; Good: 34 - 41; Fair: 27 - 33; Poor: \< 27.
