OrthoGrid Systems releases HipGrid for improved total hip replacement procedures

Spinal Tech

OrthoGrid Systems released the HipGrid for anterior and posterior approach total hip replacement.

HipGrid is a set of proprietary, radiopaque, fluoroscopic guides designed to help address common challenges associated with total hip replacement, such as proper implant positioning and restoration of anatomic alignment. HipGrid can be used with a low-dose X-ray machine to visualize and quantify where the implants are positioned in relation to key anatomical landmarks while operating.

 

HipGrid has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and it works with standard C-arms available in most operating rooms. The technology has now been successfully utilized in over 1,000 surgeries nationwide.

 

OrthoGrid Systems is a privately owned medical device company based in Salt Lake City, and it aims to help orthopedic surgeons position their implants and restore leg length when performing total hip replacement.
