Better prosthesis selection - invitation to participate in an interview about hip and knee replacement surgery
The Australian Centre for Health Services Innovation (AusHSI) at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is undertaking a research study to explore new ways to improve the way implants, also called prosthesis, are chosen for hip and knee replacement surgery. Your thoughts and ideas will help the researchers understand experiences of how consumers are/aren’t involved in selecting the implant, and design approaches to improve the implant (prosthesis) selection process. Your views will guide what is needed to from the patient perspective, to implement them in healthcare settings in the future.
