Eligibility

Age
18 Years to No maximum

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients on the primary hip replacement waiting list who have hip osteoarthritis. Patients who are able to read and understand the Informed Consent Form. Age 18 or older. Both sexes

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with neurological or orthopedic diseases that alter the gait pattern and may influence functional tests. Need for additional procedures beyond hip prosthesis (shortening osteotomies, need for structured or impacted bone graft, and ankylosed hips or those requiring in situ osteotomy)
