Historically, US arthroplasty revision rates are based on CMS data that cannot verify initial surgery date in patients under 65 years or laterality of revision. We calculated US one-year revision rates for primary total hip replacement (THR) using a representative cohort. Reasons for revision were documented. A multi-center cohort from US surgeons in 28 states collected sociodemographic data; medical, emotional, musculoskeletal comorbidities; BMI; and patient-reported pain and function (SF36, HOOS) for elective THR patients. Cases in 2011–2013 were matched with CMS data to ascertain 1 year revision through 2014. Predictors of revision were identified. Chart reviews to verify reasons for revision were performed.Introduction
