Endoprosthesis Registry Heidelberg (EPR-HD): Registry for the Analysis of Patients Following Primary Implantation or Revision Surgery of Artificial Joints in Hip and Knee Joint Pathologies
The Endoprosthesis Registry Heidelberg (EPR-HD) is a clinical registry designed to systematically collect and analyze data from patients undergoing primary implantation or revision surgery of artificial hip and knee joints. The main objective of the registry is to evaluate long-term outcomes, complication rates, implant survival, and functional results associated with joint replacement procedures in patients with various hip and knee joint pathologies.
