During the 1980s, the hospital cost for total hip arthroplasty was controlled, but the implant cost for total hip arthroplasty was not controlled. With the introduction and acceptance of case price payment systems, hip implant cost consumed a greater portion of the hospital payment each year during the 1980s. Cost control for total hip arthroplasty during the 1990s will require control of implant costs. One objective method for controlling implant costs in total hip arthroplasty is implant standardization.
在20世纪80年代，全髋关节置换术的医院成本得到了控制，但全髋关节置换术的植入物成本却未得到控制。随着病例价格支付系统的引入和采用，在20世纪80年代，髋关节植入物成本每年在医院支付中所占的比例越来越大。20世纪90年代全髋关节置换术的成本控制将需要控制植入物成本。控制全髋关节置换术中植入物成本的一种客观方法是植入物标准化。
