Abstract

Quality of Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) is decided by the range of motion (ROM), a patient can achieve after the transplant. The ROM plays an important role to perform different daily life activities. The post-operation achievement of ROM is dependent on pre-operation plans. Surgeons plan and perform operations based on their previous experiences because of the unavailability of authentic quantitative criteria due to various limitations. This study attempts to support pre-operation planning to calculate post-operation ROM achieved by the patient in THA, alongside, the risk evaluation with respect to flexion which is the most critical ROM of hip joint.
