MDR - G7 Neutral and G7 Freedom Constrained Neutral Acetabular Liners

December 12, 2023 updated by: Zimmer Biomet

Post-market Clinical Follow-up Study of the G7 Freedom Constrained Neutral Liner and G7 Neutral +5mm Liner in Primary and Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty (Implants and Instrumentation)

The objective of this consecutive series PMCF study is to collect data confirming safety, performance and clinical benefits of the G7 Freedom Constrained Liners when used for primary and revision total hip arthroplasty (implants and instrumentation) at 5 years follow-up. Since G7 Acetabular Cup System has only been on the market since 2015, a prospective follow-up will be necessary to obtain data for the 5 year post-surgery time-point for each patient.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The objective of this consecutive series PMCF study is to collect data confirming safety, performance and clinical benefits of the G7 Freedom Constrained Liners when used for primary and revision total hip arthroplasty (implants and instrumentation) at 5 years follow-up. Since G7 Acetabular Cup System has only been on the market since 2015, a prospective follow-up will be necessary to obtain data for the 5 year post-surgery time-point for each patient.

The primary objective is to confirm safety of the study products. This will be assessed by recording the incidence and frequency of revisions, complications, and adverse events. Relationship of the events to either implant or instrumentation should be specified.

The secondary objective is the assessment of performance and clinical benefits by analyzing recorded patient-reported clinical outcomes measures (PROMs).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Device Safety assessed through the frequency and incidence of revisions, complications and adverse events
Time Frame: Out to five years
The primary objective is to confirm safety of the study products. This will be assessed by recording the incidence and frequency of revisions, complications, and adverse events. Relationship of the events to either implant or instrumentation should be specified.
Out to five years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Device Performance and Benefits evaluated through the Oxford Hip Score
Time Frame: Out to five years
The OHS is a patient completed 12 question evaluation. Each item is scored from 1 to 5, with 1 representing best outcome/least symptoms and 5 representing worst outcome/most symptoms.
Out to five years
