Summary

This study looks at whether using a device called the Alexis wound retractor during hip replacement surgery helps wounds heal better and reduces infections. About 202 adults with hip arthritis having their first hip replacement will take part. Researchers will compare healing time, scar appearance, and nerve symptoms between those who get the retractor and those who don't.
