A new design of a unipolar hip endoprosthesis focused on the best quality of life of the patients during the postoperative period

As a rule, unipolar hip endoprostheses are applied for the rehabilitation of elderly patients with hip joint functions recovery required. After surgery, patients often experience discomfort produced by forces´ redistribution in driving muscles while walking. Such redistribution takes place because of the thigh mass increase around the hip joint. Explanation of a newly-designed unipolar endoprosthesis with a hollow head and its functioning analysis compared with conventional designs are provided in this paper. Data results of endoprosthesis clinical trials are provided. The design is human-centered, so its application in medical practices allows for improvement of patient life during the postoperative period.
