Malposition of the acetabular component during total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with increased risk of dislocation, reduced range of motion, and accelerated wear. The purpose of this study is to compare cup positioning with a portable, accelerometer-based hip navigation system and conventional surgical technique.
Use of the portable, accelerometer-based hip navigation system can improve cup positioning in THA.
