Long-term follow-up for a specific hip replacement stem
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study checks how well a particular hip replacement stem (the PROFEMUR Preserve Classic Femoral Stem) and matching parts keep working over many years. You may be invited if you had that exact hip replacement combination and can return for long-term checkups.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You previously had (or plan to have) a primary total hip replacement using the specific PROFEMUR Preserve Classic stem plus matching acetabular parts from the listed companies
- Your original hip problem was likely arthritis-like wear, hip bone damage, inflammatory arthritis, or painful hip dysplasia (not a failed revision or unfixable fracture treatment)
- If you already had your surgery, it must have been within 3 years of your primary hip replacement to join
- You must be able and willing to come to all required study visits and tests through the 10-year follow-up
- You must be 21 years or older at the time of your hip implant
- You should not have had infection at the time of surgery, a history of distant infections that could spread, or other major health issues that make follow-up unlikely

This study checks how well a specific hip replacement bearing surface (called dual mobility with Vivacit-E or Longevity) performs over time in real-world patients. It may help people by tracking long-term safety and performance to guide better hip replacement choices.
This study follows people who had a hip replacement redone (revision) because of bone healing problems or hardware removal, using a specific revision femoral stem. It checks how the stem does over time and follows up for up to 10 years after surgery.
This study tracks people for many years after they get their first total hip replacement due to severe hip problems. It helps doctors understand how well the implant works and how patients recover over time.
This trial follows people who have had a hip replacement using a specific “Taperloc Complete” stem. It is meant to monitor outcomes after surgery and see how well the stem performs over time for certain non-infectious hip problems.
This study checks how well FH ORTHO hip surgery devices perform after implantation in participating hospital centers. You may be asked to take part because you already received one of these approved hip devices.
This study follows patients who have had a complex hip replacement to see how they do over time. It may help if your hip surgery was more complicated than usual, such as after prior surgeries, injuries, or certain medical conditions.
