About this trial

The general purpose of this study is to examine whether the dual mobility cup (Novae® Serf) reduces the number of hip dislocations after total hip replacement, both early dislocation (≤1 year) and late dislocation (\>1 year) after primary THR compared with a conventional cup design (Trabecular MetalTM Modular Acetabular System).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients with hip arthritis who are amenable to surgery with THR and age ≥ 65 years referred to the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at either Section Farsø, Frederikshavn Hospital or Aalborg University Hospital. Patients who are willing to participate in the trial and who give their written, informed consent after receiving oral and written information.

Disqualifiers

Patients who do not wish to participate.

Sequelae of Calvé-Legg-Perthes' disease, caput necrosis, epiphysiolysis.

Proximal femoral or acetabular fracture.

Hip dysplasia with subluxation Crowe types III and IV.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Early dislocation, Difference in dislocation within 1 year.

The primary outcome is the difference in cumulative incidence proportion of dislocation between the 2 randomized groups within the first year after total hip replacement. The information will be collected from both the patient through questionnaires and from the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register and the Danish National Patient Register.

Time frame
1 year after surgery

Secondary outcomes

1

Difference in dislocation within 5 years

The difference in cumulative incidence proportion of dislocation between the 2 randomized groups within 5 years after total hip replacement. The information will be collected from both the patient through questionnaires and from the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register and the Danish National Patient Register.

Time frame
5 years after surgery
2

Dislocation 10 year

The difference in cumulative incidence proportion of dislocation between the 2 randomized groups within 10 years after total hip replacement. The information will be collected from both the patient through questionnaires and from the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register and the Danish National Patient Register.

Time frame
10 years after surgery
3

Prosthesis survival.

Evaluated by the cumulative incidence of THR's reoperated within 1, 5 and 10 years after total hip replacement. The information will be collected from both the patient through questionnaires and from the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register and the Danish National Patient Register.

Time frame
1, 5 and 10 year
4

Patient reported outcome measure: European quality of life 5 dimensions (EQ-5D 5L)

Patients will be scored with EQ-5D 5L preoperatively and at 1,5 and 10 years. It consists of 5 dimensions ranging from 1-5, with 1 being the best in each dimension. It also consist of a visual analog scale ranging from 0-100, 100 being the best imaginable health, The EQ VAS describes the respondents current overall health. Data will be showed as changes in health over time showing responses at baseline and at follow up or as frequencies and proportions reported by dimension and level.

Time frame
1, 5 and 10 years
