​MARCH 18, 2019 Studies Confirm Benefits of Direct Anterior Approach to Total Hip Replacement New studies link the direct anterior approach to total hip arthroplasty with faster recovery and better results.
A recent study of the direct anterior vs lateral approaches to total hip arthroplasty indicates superior results using the direct anterior approach (DAA). The study, published by the Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, shows significantly reduced pain levels, lower blood loss, and faster functional recovery following DAA. Additionally, several past studies have linked direct anterior total hip arthroplasty to shorter hospital stays and lower dislocation rates in comparison to other approaches.
