Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults who require implantation with a SERF total hip prosthesis, meet the device instructions for use, can give informed consent, and are affiliated with French social security are ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

Patients with legal protection, inability to consent, pregnancy or breastfeeding, contraindications to implantation or radiographic follow-up, inability to complete questionnaires, or who cannot comply with follow-up are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies

This is an observational post-market data collection of the XPEO-E polyethylene liner used with NOVAE cups and SERF femoral heads and stems in routine total hip arthroplasty. Participants receive the devices according to their CE marking and usual surgical practice, and follow-up visits follow standard clinical care. Additional data are collected via patient- and surgeon-completed questionnaires to capture function, pain, and device performance. The goal is to gather device-specific clinical data to support regulatory transition to MDR 2017/745 in the EU.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the data could support wider regulatory approval and give patients confidence in the liner's safety and performance after hip replacement.

How similar studies have gone: Dual-mobility cup designs and polyethylene liners have prior favorable clinical experience, but no published clinical data specific to the XPEO-E liner are available, making this device-specific collection novel.
