Abstract

The Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) Model from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and similar programs from other payers make hospitals and healthcare systems more responsible for better clinical and economical outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) aimed at slowing Medicare spending growth. Oxidized Zirconium◊ (OxZr) implants have been shown in numerous registry and clinical studies to be clinically effective when used on elective THA. The objective of this study was to evaluate 30, 90 and 180- and one-year outcomes in hip replacement due to hip fracture for patients using OxZr implants compared to ceramic-on-polyethylene (CoP) implants.
