Prospective Catalystem CT-RSA

What this study is about

Multi-Centre Study in patients undergoing Total Hip Arthroplasty with the Smith+Nephew CATALYSTEM™ Primary Hip System. The primary objective is to establish the mean inferior stem migration (subsidence) of the CATALYSTEM™ stem using CT-RSA over the first two postoperative years.

• Patient is planned to have simultaneous bilateral hip arthroplasty
• Patient had contralateral hip arthroplasty less than 6 months prior to the day of surgery.
• Patient is expected to have contralateral hip arthroplasty in the following 6 months at the time of consent into this study.
• Patient has active local or systemic infection.
• Patient has amputations in either leg that would impact rehabilitation following surgery.
• Patient has loss of musculature, neuromuscular compromise or vascular compromise that would impact rehabilitation following surgery.
• Patient has poor bone quality, such as osteoporosis, where in the surgeon's opinion, there could be considerable migration of the prosthesis, or require additional fixation, or a significant chance of periprosthetic fracture, or the lack of adequate bone to support the implant(s).
