EMPHASYS Cup with VHN: Total Hip Replacement with EMPHASYS Acetabular shell and Non-Invasive Navigation
Study summary
The purpose of this research is to gather clinical and radiographic (X-ray) information about EMPHASYS™ acetabular shell (also called a hip 'cup') placement in total hip replacement surgery using a non-invasive surgical navigation system called VELYS™ hip navigation system with CUPTIMIZE™ Advanced Hip-Spine Analysis software.
Data collected in this study will be compared with data collected from implantations using different cup positioning instrumentation and techniques to assess performance.

13. Subject, in the opinion of the Investigator, is a drug or alcohol abuser or has a psychological disorder that could affect their ability to complete subject reported questionnaires or be compliant with follow-up requirements.
Primary outcome measure(s)
Composite endpoint: Acetabular Cup Position Success at 6 Weeks — 6 Weeks For an individual cup position to be considered successful, the cup's placement must satisfy all of the following criteria at 6 weeks: Inclination Success: within 10 degrees of the planned inclination via the surgeon-defined preoperative plan and version Success: within 10 degrees of the planned version via the surgeon-defined preoperative plan.
