Gait Analysis of Anterior vs. Posterior Approach in Performance of Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Multi-Centre, Prospective Trial
The primary objectives of the study is to compare gait kinematics and the return to
normalization of gait in patients that have undergone a Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) via the
direct anterior approach versus the posterior approach. Gait kinematics will be measured
using the IDEEA LifeGait device from Minisun (Fresno, CA).
normalization of gait in patients that have undergone a Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) via the
direct anterior approach versus the posterior approach. Gait kinematics will be measured
using the IDEEA LifeGait device from Minisun (Fresno, CA).
This is a prospective study of two different surgical approaches to THA, direct anterior vs
posterior approach in approximately 64 patients that meet the standard criteria for the
implantation of primary total hip replacement utilizing the Medacta implants and have
elected to undergo THA.

known coexistent, medical problems
- Those already treated with a failed Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA)
- Muscle contracture around the hip joint
- Individuals who have undergone organ transplant
- Those with a known co-existent medical condition where death is anticipated within
five years due to the pre-existing medical condition.
- Those with one or more medical conditions identified as a contraindication defined by
the labeling on any Medacta implants used in this study
- Individuals who have had a THA on the contra-lateral side within the 6 months.
