    BACKGROUND: Randomized trials that sometimes serve as the basis for device approval are small, short term, and generalizable to an increasingly smaller percentage of patients. Some of the most common and challenging devices are those used in hip replacement. Artificial hips are implanted in thousands to alleviate pain caused by noninflammatory joint disease and to restore patient mobility. During 2004 in the United States, although 68% of hospita…
