ObjectivePatients that undergo total hip replacement (THA) are at risk of revision surgery. This study evaluated the cumulative incidence of revision following a medial collared, triple tapered (MCTT) primary hip stem versus other implants in real-world settings using electronic medical records.MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort study that used the Mercy Healthcare Systems - Orthopedics Database (MHSOD) to identify ACTIS total hip system, a MCTT primary hip stem for THA, and any other primary THA between 2016 and 2020. A Kaplan-Meier analysis was conducted to evaluate the risk of revision over time between the MCTT hip stem and other implants. In order to control for the confounding, a multivariable Cox model was developed to evaluate the risk of revision between the two groups.ResultsThere were 1213 patients treated with MCTT hip stem and 6916 patients treated with other implants. The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed statistically significant difference (p value = .006) in cumulative incidences for all-cause revisions between the MCTT hip stem and other implants. The cumulative incidence at 3 years was 1.08% (0.43-2.72%) for the MCTT hip stem, while it was 2.63% (2.19-3.16%) for other implants. After adjusting for patient demographics, clinical characteristics, prescribed medications, and surgeon characteristics, the multivariable Cox proportional hazard model showed the MCTT hip stem was statistically significantly associated with 57% lower risk of revisions compared with other implants (HR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.19-0.97; p-value = .042).ConclusionsThis real-world study found that the incidence of revision after treatment with MCTT primary hip stem was significantly lower than for other implants.
