Summary

This trial is testing a new robotic system to see how precise and accurate it is.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 needing hip replacement surgery due to conditions like Hip Dysplasia or Osteoarthritis. Participants must be able to follow post-surgery check-ups and sign a consent form. It's not for those with infections near the joint, BMI over 40, neuromuscular disorders, muscle atrophy, poor blood supply in the limb, Ankylosing spondylitis, or inadequate bone stock.
What is being tested?
The study tests the MAKO THA 4.0 System—a robotic arm-assisted device—to see how precise and accurate it is during hip replacement surgeries across multiple centers using new software.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed for this device trial, typical risks of robotic-assisted surgery may include pain at the incision site, bleeding, infection risk similar to traditional surgery methods.
