Abstract

AbstractThrough a survey of hip replacement arthroplasty the paper establishes the case for objective evaluation of these joints in the patient. It then outlines a simple, non‐invasive technique, based on Paul's (1967) locomotion studies, to assess pre‐ and postoperative functional capability. Preliminary results which establish viability of the procedure are presented.
