Summary

This study investigates the use of an automated impactor device in total hip arthroplasty versus manual malleting method and the physiological strain on the surgeon. This study will be a randomized, prospective, multicenter study involving fellowship-trained arthroplasty surgeons. Each participating surgeon will contribute data from 50 primary, elective THA cases, using the HAMMR powered impactor in 25 cases and manual impaction in 25 cases.

Conditions

  • Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA)
  • Impaction
  • Physiological Strain

Interventions

DEVICE

Automated Impaction (HAMMR)

For cases that are randomized to the automated impaction HAMMR group, the surgeon will utilize an automated impactor device for impaction of the implant during total hip arthroplasty.

DEVICE

Manual Malleting

For cases that are randomized to the manual malleting group, the surgeon will utilize a mallet for impaction of the implant during total hip arthroplasty.
