Study Summary

This trial is testing whether a new, computer-assisted method for hip replacement surgery is more accurate than the standard method in terms of leg length and hip offset.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients at Mount Sinai Hospital who are getting their first total hip arthroplasty. It's not suitable for those with a pre-operative flexion contracture greater than 30 degrees, an infection, or if rigid fixation of instruments can't be achieved during surgery.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the Intellijoint HIP™ system's accuracy in measuring leg length and hip offset against the standard pin and outrigger method during primary total hip arthroplasty to see if it can reduce discrepancies.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed for using Intellijoint HIP™, typical risks may include issues related to surgical instrument use such as tissue irritation or inaccurate measurements leading to complications.

Active Control
Group I: Intellijoint HIPExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patient's will have their leg length and hip offset determined intraoperatively using Intellijoint HIP.
