Who may not be able to join:

• People who have an active infection.
• People who are pregnant.
• People who have a mental illness that may affect their ability to give informed consent, accurately report how they are feeling, or attend follow-up appointments over a 10-year period.
• People whose hip anatomy is severely distorted, as determined by the surgeon.
• People who have a bone-softening condition (osteomalacia) that makes a non-cemented implant unsuitable.
• People who have active rheumatoid arthritis.
• People who have osteoporosis (weakened or brittle bones).
• People who have a metabolic disorder that affects bone formation and makes a non-cemented implant unsuitable (confirm with trial site).
