Resurfacing Hemiarthoplasty Versus Conventional Stemmed Arthroplasty

Completed
Conditions
Osteoarthritis
Registration Number
NCT00664989
Lead Sponsor
Ottawa Hospital Research Institute
Brief Summary

Hypothesis: What is the difference in disease specific quality of life between patients who receive a humeral surface replacement hemiarthroplasty verusu a conventioanl stemmed hemiarthroplasty

Detailed Description

The purpose of this multi-centered, randomized, controlled trial will be to determine if patient self-assessed outcomes (Western Ontario Osteoarthritis of Shoulder Score- WOOS) following humeral resurfacing are superior to those following a conventional, modular, stemmed, humeral prosthesis. The first phase of this study will be a one year pilot recruitment period. This is necessary in order to determine both a center by center, and national recruitment rate, and to determine a sample size necessary for a sufficiently powered full randomized trial. If a full randomized trial is not considered feasible following Phase 1, then a prospective cohort study will be completed.
