Completed
Conditions
Osteoarthritis
Registration Number
NCT01407029
Lead Sponsor
Smith & Nephew, Inc.
Brief Summary

This is a prospective, non-randomized, consecutive series, multicenter clinical study that will include patients who will have total hip replacement with the R3 Acetabular System.

Detailed Description

The study design was selected to assess the safety and effectiveness profile of the R3 Acetabular System in patients with degenerative joint disease requiring primary total hip replacement. A non¬-randomized, consecutive series of up to 158 patients will be enrolled, and a maximum of 8 sites will participate in the study. Each site is allowed to enroll up to 22 patients. When 158 patients are enrolled from all sites, enrollment will be stopped, regardless of the number contributed from each site. The clinical data from this study will be compared with a historical control. The study will include follow up through 5 years.
