Long term surveillance of survivorship and complications can help to identify pre-surgical comorbidities, perhaps leading to a lower risk of implant failure and subsequent revision surgery. By understanding the role of comorbidities in the specific population, it is possible to increase patient outcomes and satisfaction, while reducing the costs associated with complications and revision surgeries.
This study consists of prospective collection and analysis of data for a consecutive series of patients that underwent total hip arthroplasty with the Ortho Development Ovation® Hip System at the study site between 2012 and December 2015. It is estimated that over 400 patients received the subject system. Each of these patients will receive a survey within the mail when they approach, or have exceeded, their five-year post-surgical time period.
