Incidence of Dual Mobility Polyethylene Wear in Total Hip Prosthesis. Randomised Study Versus Fixed Insert by Radiostereometric Analysis.

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Total Hip Replacement
Interventions
Device: Novae E®
Device: Quartz®
Device: Sunfit®
Registration Number
NCT02525809
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Caen
Brief Summary

The total hip replacement, with over 120,000 cases per year in France, provides short term, excellent functional results and a significant improvement in quality of life, in almost all cases. However, observation showed that the dislocation is not a rare complication (2-4%) and the lifetime of the implants is limited due to aseptic loosening.

The evaluation process used in this study will be the extent of penetration of the metal femoral head in the cup and micro mobility metal back by radiostereometric analysis (RSA) whose precision provides early results (2 3 years), long before wear and migration are measurable by conventional radiological means. The main objective will be to compare, 2 years after the intervention, the penetration of the metal femoral head in 3 types of inserts: two dual mobility inserts, one at tripod attachment (Novae E®), the other press fit pure (Sunfit®), and a fixed insert (Quartz®).

This is a randomized controlled trial. 105 patients will be enrolled (35 in each group). Patients will be included in each of the two participating centers (Amiens, Caen). The analysis will be made in RSA D7 + 2, 6 months 1, 12 months 1 24 months 1. An assessment will be made to 3 years if the analysis requires it to 2 years.

Analysis of pictures will be centralized in Caen and performed with specific software after transferring images via a secure network.
