Patient guide to total hip replacement (THR) surgery
This brochure provides easily understandable information for patients undergoing total hip replacement surgery. It contains an explanation of what will happen before, during and after their hospital admission.
It explains the various roles of doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals involved in their care. By providing this information to patients undergoing this surgery and their families, we hope to optimise post-operative outcomes and facilitate a safe and timely discharge.
