This trial is for individuals scheduled for primary total hip replacement surgery at The Ottawa Hospital's General Campus. Participants must be willing and able to complete study requirements, including X-rays and questionnaires, as well as sign the informed consent form.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to find the best placement for the cup component in a hip replacement by analyzing pre-surgery X-rays to determine each patient's ideal cup orientation. Surgeons will use this data during surgery, with follow-up assessments via X-rays and questionnaires.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not directly related to side effects of medication, potential risks include complications from incorrect cup placement such as dislocation or issues that may arise from surgical procedures involved in hip replacements.
