Study information
Scientific title
Clinical evaluation comparing minimally invasive and standard skin incisions in cementless total hip arthroplasty using the Bimetric Hip system with the 38mm M2A cup. Clinical evaluation of incision size in total hip replacement
Acronym
Study hypothesis
1. Does a small incision (minimally invasive) provide an improved recovery for patients following total hip arthoplasty?
2. Specifically, is the patient able to mobilise more rapidly, leading to an early discharge from the hospital and does it require less analgesia for control of pain?
3. Are there any complications of performing this procedure that are not observed when using the standard incision?
