Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Everglade Stem, World Cup and World Liner Survival Rate
The implant survival rate based on removal of the device for any reason as determined following the Kaplan-Meier method
Secondary outcomes
Oxford Hip Score (OHS)
The OHS is a patient reported outcome measure (PROM) used to quantify patient satisfaction with the treatment. The OHS consists of 12 questions scored 1 to 5 by the patient.
Other outcomes
Radiographic Analysis
Post-operative radiographs of the implant are analysed to identify locations and sizes of radiolucency, indicative of poor fixation. The size, location and progression of radiolucencies is monitored. Smaller, non-progressive radiolucencies are preferred.
