Computational modeling of hip replacement surgery: Total hip replacement vs. hip resurfacing
The motivation of the present work is the computational simulation of hip replacement surgery by means of a finite element approach based on open system thermodynamics. Its key feature is a non-constant material density, which is allowed to adapt with respect to changes in the mechanical loading environment. From a computational point of view, the density is treated as an internal variable. Its...
متن کاملPrimary total hip replacement versus hip resurfacing - hospital considerations.
Multiple factors regarding surgical procedures and patient selection affect hospital staffing needs as well as hospital revenues. In order to better understand the potential impact on hospitals that hip arthroplasty device selection (standard total hip arthroplasty vs. resurfacing) creates, a review of all primary hip arthroplasties performed at one institution was designed to identify factors ...
