About
The Zimmer Hip Resurfacing System Post-Market Clinical Follow-up study will examine the safety and efficacy of this device in the young and/or active patient with advanced hip disease.
Full description
This is a multi-center, prospective, non-controlled post market surveillance study. The objective of this study is to obtain survival and outcome data on the Zimmer Hip Resurfacing System. This will be assessed by analysis of standard scoring systems, radiographs and adverse event records. Data will be used to monitor pain, mobility and survivorship, and to confirm the safety and efficacy of the Zimmer Hip Resurfacing System. Serum metal ion levels (cobalt and chromium) will also be collected pre-operatively and again at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years. This procedure will offer an option to these patients who would otherwise require and likely outlive a conventional total hip replacement.
