Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to assess the accuracy of Butterfly IQ ultrasound for intra-articular hip injections, and to see if an injection given intra-articular before incision provides any benefit in preemptive pain relief or blood loss reduction.

Description:

This study is designed to be prospective randomized (1:1) controlled independent trial. Subjects are male and female, aged 18 and above, who are suitable candidates for either a unilateral (i.e. single) total hip replacement. Subjects that are scheduled with a single, extensively trained Physician Assistant assisting in their surgery will be exclusively included. This is single site study with projected enrollment of 150 subjects
