Total hip replacement and resurfacing arthroplasty for end-stage arthritis of the hip

Recommendation ID: TA304/2
Question: NICE recommended the collection of data on prosthesis failure or on the prevalence of people living with a failed hip but for whom revision surgery is not suitable or who choose not to have revision surgery. NICE further recommended that nomenclature for hip replacement failure needs to be established to allow demarcation of prosthesis-dependent and prosthesisindependent hip replacement failure. Furthermore, patient reported outcome measures collected as part of the National Joint Registry should allow for reporting of hip replacement failure in people who cannot or choose not to have revision surgery.
Any explanatory notes (if applicable): None.
