Total Hip Arthroplasty
Conditions
Brief summary

The results of this study will be used to generate evidence-based recommendations on the use and funding of the device in public hospitals and inform the development of a provincial healthcare innovation pathway.
Interventions
The intervention group will receive primary elective THA with the use of Intellijoint HIP 3D mini-optical navigation tool.
