Baseline Characteristics

These numbers represent the subjects who received either the Taperloc Complete Microplasty stem or the Taperloc Complete Reduced Distal stem. 25 patients were enrolled in the TCM group, and 25 in the TCRD group. In the TCM group, 1 patient was withdrawn before surgery. In the TCRD group, 3 received a different device, and 1 the TCM. For clarity, we decided to report based on the actual implantation (i.e. 25 TCM and 21 TCRD).

Harris Hip Score (HHS), a score to measure health and satisfaction after a hip prosthesis. The score has a maximum of 100 points (best possible outcome) covering pain (1 item, 0-44 points), function (7 items, 0-47 points), absence of deformity (1 item, 4 points), and range of motion (2 items, 5 points)

Each question in the EQ5D assessment can be answered in three ways, indicating no, moderate or extreme problems. Index scores are created with a weight for each dimension, ranging from 0 (health state equivalent to death) to 1 (perfect health). The EQ5D also includes a question about health status, ranging from 0 (worst health) to 100 (best health).

The OHS assesses pain (6 items) and function (6 items) of the hip in relation to daily activities such as walking, dressing, sleeping, etc. The scoring is the following: 0-4 (worst to best) with overall scores ranging from 0-48 where 48 represents the best score.

The Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) is a questionnaire, which focuses on the awareness of having a joint prosthesis. The rationale of this questionnaire is that the ultimate goal in joint arthroplasty resulting in the greatest possible patient satisfaction is the ability to forget the artificial joint. The outcome is scored on a 0 to 100 scale, with a total score of 0 indicating the highest level of awareness of having a joint prosthesis.
