Metal Ion Serum Concentrations in Patients With Total Hip Replacements

NCT00156598 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 5

Last updated 2012-07-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Other research studies have shown that the levels of metals in the blood are slightly increased after patients receive a total hip replacement. We want to learn whether these elevated levels are associated with any adverse effects. We hope this study will help us identify which type of patients have elevated levels of metal in their blood.
