Long-term follow-up on hip implant stability after 10 years

Official title: The 10-year Follow-up of the Delta-TT Trial: Stability of the Delta-TT Cup with Polyethylene Insert Compared to the Delta-TT Cup with Ceramic Insert.

Run by JointResearch · NCT06864897 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study looks at how well hip implants have held up over 10 years for patients who had them, comparing different materials to see which is more stable and less likely to loosen.

What this trial studies

This observational study follows up on patients from the initial Delta-TT trial to assess the long-term migration patterns of the Delta-TT cup and H-MAX S stem. It compares the outcomes of ceramic and polyethylene liners in terms of stability and potential risk of aseptic loosening. The study utilizes radiostereometric analysis (RSA) to measure implant stability at the 10-year postoperative mark, aiming to provide insights into implant performance over time. Additionally, it evaluates patient-reported outcomes and implant survival rates.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable information on the long-term effectiveness and safety of hip implants, guiding future surgical decisions.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success in using RSA to evaluate implant stability, making this approach both validated and relevant.
