Post Approval Study of the Commercially Available U-Motion II+ Acetabular System and UTF Reduced Stem (U-Move)

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02761499

Introduction

United Orthopedic Corporation is sponsoring a post market study (PMS) to evaluate the clinical performance of the U-Motion II+ Acetabular System and the UTF Reduced Stem, associated surgical instruments, and surgical technique. The devices used in this PMS are cleared to market by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and will be used in accordance with the cleared labeling and indications for use.

Rationale

Despite advances in total hip arthroplasty (THA), postoperative dislocation, bearing wear, and insufficient range of motion are still challenging problems, especially for younger, more active individuals. The U-Motion II+ Acetabular System and UTF Reduced Stem are designed to address these issues by using improved implant materials including a BIOLOX delta ceramic head and a highly cross-linked polyethylene (XPE) liner. With this unique material technology, the U-Motion II+ Acetabular System offers larger femoral head sizes to improve hip flexion and to reduce the risk of joint dislocation. The UTF Reduced Stem offers refined proximal M/L width to maximize metaphyseal fitting, a broach-only technique to minimize bone removal and a reduced distal width to accommodate all types of femoral canal.

Intended Use of the Study Device

The U-Motion II+ Acetabular System and the UTF Reduced Stem used in this study are cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for commercial distribution.

The U-Motion II+ Acetabular System and UTF Reduced Stem are intended for use in subjects who require primary THA for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function.

Duration of the Study

The study provides for up to 200 patients being enrolled at up to 10 sites. The patients will be evaluated at 10 visits: baseline, procedure/ discharge and 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months post treatment for primary analysis and annually up to 5 years for secondary long-term follow-up.
