Journal ArticleDOI

Duration and frequency of every day activities in total hip patients.

TL;DR: A portable activity monitoring system was developed and applied for the determination of frequency and duration of patient activities in their habitual environment and to compare the results to a clinical outcome score (Harris hip score).
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic accuracy and precision analysis of video motion capturing systems—exemplified on the Vicon-460 system

TL;DR: Significant influence of the system environment on the performance of video-based motion capturing systems is revealed, with careful configuration, optical motion capturing provides a powerful measuring opportunity for the majority of biomechanical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modes of implant failure after hip resurfacing: morphological and wear analysis of 267 retrieval specimens.

TL;DR: Failures on the femoral side usually occur within the first nine months after surgery and appear to be most directly related to the implantation technique or patient selection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Realistic loads for testing hip implants

TL;DR: Real load conditions for hip implants are defined, based on in vivo contact force measurements, and it is shown that at least for heavyweight and very active subjects, the real load conditions are more critical than those defined by the ISO standards for fatigue tests.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of robotic-assisted and manual implantation of a primary total hip replacement. A prospective study.

TL;DR: The robotic-assisted technology had advantages in terms of preoperative planning and the accuracy of the intraoperative procedure and disadvantages were the high revision rate; the amount of muscle damage, which the authors believe was responsible for the higher dislocation rate; and the longer duration of surgery.
