Dosage of Metal Ions in the Blood of Different Metal-on-metal Prostheses, in Correlation With Physical Activity

December 6, 2022 updated by: University Hospital, Ghent
Prospective study including 6 groups of 20 patients with a total hip prosthesis. Five different types of metal-on-metal prostheses are studied, and 1 group with ceramic-on-ceramic prostheses acts as control group. Patients undergo a clinical evaluation and blood sampling preoperatively, and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months postoperatively.
