New hip resurfacing implant could lead to better outcomes in patients

Surgeons are treating patients with a new type of hip implant that could lead to better outcomes for younger, more active people requiring surgery. Fifteen patients have so far been treated with a novel ceramic hip resurfacing implant in a new trial at Imperial College London. Early results suggest patients can return to physical activities such as swimming and cycling within six weeks of their operation. David Brewer and Krystyna Plater, two implant recipients, talk about why they took part in the clinical investigation and the impact of their new implants. The video also features an interview with Professor Justin Cobb, Head of academic orthopedic surgery at Imperial College London. He explains more about how the implant works and the results of the investigation so far. The video also includes an interview with Brogan Keane, Physician Associate at the MSk Lab, Imperial College London. To find out more please visit http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/newsandeve...
