METHOD FOR IMPLANTING A HIP PROSTHESIS AND RELATED SYSTEM

摘要

A method of implanting a hip joint prosthesis into a patient can include obtaining image data of hip joint anatomy of the patient. Physical activities that the patient desires to participate in subsequent to implanting the hip prosthesis can be determined. A size and an initial placement of the hip joint prosthesis based on the image data can be determined. A desired range of motion of the hip joint prosthesis based on the determined physical activities can be determined. A plan can be created comprising a desired implanted location of the hip joint prosthesis and based on the desired range of motion. The plan can be incorporated onto a guide. The plan can be executed with the guide thereby implanting the hip joint prosthesis into the patient at the desired implanted position.

1. A method of implanting a hip joint prosthesis into a patient, the method comprising:
obtaining image data of hip joint anatomy of the patient; determining physical activities the patient desires to participate in subsequent to implanting the hip joint prosthesis; determining a size and an initial placement of the hip joint prosthesis based on the image data; determining a desired range of motion of the hip joint prosthesis based on the determined physical activities; creating a plan comprising a desired implanted location of the hip joint prosthesis and based on the desired range of motion; incorporating the plan onto one of a tool and a guide; and executing the plan with the one of the tool and guide thereby implanting the hip joint prosthesis into the patient at the desired implanted location.
