In this expert interview, Professor Edward Davis discusses emerging real-world evidence examining the association between bearing material selection and infection-related outcomes following primary total hip arthroplasty. Drawing on data from the UK National Joint Registry and complementary US claims analyses, he explores the methodology behind large-scale registry research, key findings comparing OXINIUM™/XLPE with other contemporary bearing combinations, and the importance of interpreting real-world data appropriately.Throughout the discussion, Professor Davis reviews potential scientific hypotheses that may explain the observed associations, including considerations related to material properties, corrosion, metal ion release, and biological response. He also examines how these findings may influence clinical conversations around implant material selection, infection risk, and decision-making in primary total hip arthroplasty.
