Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Survivorship of Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA)
Time Frame: 2 years
Assess survivorship of the OR3O™ Dual Mobility System at 2 years post implantation in Primary THA procedures. Survivorship is defined as no revision of the Acetabular Implant and OR3O™ Liner.
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Survivorship of individual Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) components (OR3O Dual Mobility, acetabular shell, femoral head)
Time Frame: up to 10 years
Survivorship of the following specific components will be presented individually: OR3O™Dual Mobility System, Acetabular Shell, Femoral head. The endpoint of interest is time to occurrence of a revision of the specific component due to any reason.
up to 10 years
Five-level EuroQol five-dimensional (EQ-5D-5L) score
Time Frame: Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 5 years, 7 years, and 10 years

The EQ-5D-5L score consists of two parts: a descriptive system and a visual analogue scale. The descriptive system is used to describe the subject's health state and consists of five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels to choose the most appropriate answer: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The subject is asked to indicate his/her health state by marking the most appropriate statement in each of the five areas.

The visual analogue scale records the subject's self-rated health on a vertical visual analogue scale.The endpoints on the scale are labelled 'The best health you can imagine' and 'The worst health you can imagine'. The VAS can be used as a quantitative measure of health outcome as judged by the individual respondents.

Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 5 years, 7 years, and 10 years
Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (HOOS JR.)
Time Frame: Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 5 years, 7 years, and 10 years
The HOOS JR. is a short-form survey based on the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) that specifically focuses on the outcome after THA. HOOS JR. consists of 2 areas: pain (2 items) and function, daily living (4 items). The last week is taken into consideration when answering the questions. Standardized answer options are given (5 Likert boxes - no, mild, moderate, severe, extreme) and each question gets a score from 0 to 4. An interval score from 0-100 (0 indicating total hip disability and 100 indicating perfect hip health) is calculated (15).
Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 5 years, 7 years, and 10 years
Harris Hip Score (HHS)
Time Frame: Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, and 10 years
The Harris Hip Score is a joint specific score that consists of 10 items covering domains of pain (1 item, 0-44 points), function (7 items, 0-47 points), functional activities, absence of deformity (1 item, 0 or 4 points), and hip range of motion (2 items, 0-5 points). Total scores range from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). The total scores and scores for each of the domains will be presented. The modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) includes all the same domains as the HHS except for the hip range of motion (2 items, 0-5 points). Total mHHHs scores range from 0 (worst) to 95 (best). The total mHHS score maybe used in place of the total HHS score.
Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, and 10 years
Forgotten Joint Score 12 (FJS-12)
Time Frame: Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, and 10 years
The Forgotten Joint Score 12 (FJS-12) is a self-administered score where subjects are asked to rate their awareness of their hip arthroplasty in 12 questions with a five-point Likert response format: "Never", "almost never", "seldom", "sometimes" and "mostly". The item scores are summed and linearly transformed in a 0 to 100 scale with a high value reflecting the ability of the subject to forget about the replaced hip joint during the activities of daily living (i.e., higher score is a better outcome).
