Summary
This post market study intends to evaluate the safety and the performance of BiMetric Total
Hip System with two types of coatings.
The efficacy of the prosthesis will be evaluated comparing the pain, the function and the
range of motion measured preoperatively and postoperatively using recognized clinical
outcomes Harris Hip Score. The secondary efficacy measurement is based on X-rays to measure
the mineral bony thickness in the areas of Gruen zones of the proximal femur.
