Automated vs manual tool study for hip replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests whether an automated surgical tool is better than a manual one for putting in hip replacement parts. If you are having a planned first-time hip replacement and are over 18, you might be able to join.
