Summary
This study tested a device called NaviFast 6D, a miniature measuring arm used during hip replacement surgery to help surgeons check leg length and hip offset. Researchers compared measurements from the device to standard X-ray measurements in 84 adults undergoing hip replacement. The goal was to see if the device could reduce differences in leg length after surgery compared to usual care.
